Chapter 29

Author: Tang Eighteen
Chelsea’s words made Lucy blush, and she felt a warmth surge through her. No one was as genuine to her as her best friend.

Then, Lucy froze.

Chelsea should learn to control herself. Could she not sense Matthew looking at her?

Especially when Chelsea mentioned that there were plenty of other fish in the sea, Matthew looked like he was going to stab Chelsea.

She was afraid that her newlywed husband would stop the car and beat up her best friend.

Chelsea should have waited to tell her these things when he was not around. Lucy wanted to cry, but her eyes were dry.

It was unfortunate that Chelsea could not read Lucy's thoughts.

Then, Matthew voiced out, “Ms. King, there may be plenty of fish in the sea, but I doubt any of them are better than me.”

Chelsea choked when she realized that Matthew had heard everything she just said.

Suddenly, the air was tense.

Chelsea was so embarrassed she could crawl into a hole.

Wait a minute. She was giving her best friend advice. Who was he to

    ”Can you take good care of Lulu?”Chelsea started things up again after they had just calmed down. What was Chelsea trying to do? Lucy was in despair as she did not want to get back out onto the battlefield.Matthew said calmly with a hint of determination in his voice, “Of course, I’ll take good care of her. There’s no doubt about it.”Chelsea was slightly less worried now, but she was still unconvinced.“How are you going to promise me that? Timothy said the same thing, but look at him now!”Chelsea got worked up when she mentioned Timothy, but she managed to restrain herself.“I’m sorry about that, but please answer my question.”Matthew continued to drive and answered without glancing back at Chelsea, “Seriously, why do all of you like comparing me to an asshole? I’m not like him. Although you can’t use my words as proof…”“So, you're aware as well that it’s all just empty words," Chelsea interrupted him.“Chelsea!”Lucy was getting a little angry, but she knew that Che

    Chelsea rolled her eyes at her.“That’s something you should ask yourself.”Lucy was confused as to what she meant by that, but Chelsea’s next words cleared up her confusion.“I was looking for you, but I heard that you got into an argument with your mother yesterday and ran away from home.“I was so worried that I searched for you everywhere. I went to all the places you usually went to, but I still couldn’t find you. In the end, I went to the entrance of Lucas Corporation to try my luck.”Chelsea started to raise her voice as she recounted the upsetting memory.“Who would've thought that as soon as I got there, I heard Timothy’s shameless words? I was so pissed.”Lucy’s eyes twitched. “So, you started arguing with them?”Chelsea nodded.Lucy wanted to say something to her, but she decided against it. She opened her mouth, but no words came out of it. Her face turned red from frustration.As Lucy’s best friend, Chelsea could instantly read her expression, so she said angrily

    Matthew was taken aback when he heard that. Did Lucy know the kind of favor she was turning down? A promise from Leon Corporation’s CEO was something that people would go to great lengths for and still not be able to obtain.Yet, the woman in front of him was going to reject just that.However, she was not just anyone; she was his wife.Matthew raised his eyebrows, and an evil smile appeared on his face. “Others may be able to turn me down, but you can’t. You’re my wife, so it’s only right that I take care of you.”Chelsea slowly covered her eyes and said, “Alright, alright! You’re doing it again! Stop making me feel like the third wheel.“Whatever. I don’t expect you to be considerate of the feelings of us single folks anyway.” She removed her hand from her eyes, revealing a blank expression.She had accepted the reality of things. It was just that Chelsea could not stand seeing her Lulu being all mushy to this bastard.She shouted, “If you two want to be all lovey-dovey, you c

She was stunned for a long time, unable to utter a single word.Right, how could he be playing with her feelings when they were married?Although that was what she thought, she still felt upset for some reason.Seeing as Lucy was in a bad mood, Matthew smiled at her. “Sit tight. I’ll take you home.”There was a line when it came to teasing. Matthew understood that if he crossed that line, it would not be fun anymore.The poor Lucy did not realize that Matthew was teasing her, so she continued to wonder what was making her feel upset.She did not even hear what Matthew said.Matthew raised his eyebrows. His wife was brave enough to ignore him now. With a mischievous grin, he floored the accelerator, and the car zoomed off.Although he was still within the speed limit, he was driving much faster than before.Matthew’s sudden act startled Lucy. “Why are you driving so fast all of a sudden?”He looked relaxed. Seeing as his wife had started paying

    Even after what Matthew said, Lucy was still worried.Although she had managed businesses and studied finance, was it really okay for Matthew to entrust her with such a valuable estate? Moreover, they had not even been married for a month.Lucy’s thoughts were running wild, but there was no use thinking about it because it was already happening.After arriving at their destination, Matthew helped Lucy out of the passenger seat. Lucy followed him inside blankly, and when she looked around, she was astonished.Bewildered, she said, “Matthew, are you sure you brought me to your estate? This looks like a resort.”She was right; it was a resort. There were stunning views all around. The resort covered a vast area, and Lucy could even spot the silhouette of a mountain in the distance.“Yes. This is part of my estate. It’s quite extensive. There are various industries involved, and tourism is just one of them.“I often come here for a vacation when I’m tired.“As the lady of the house

    Mathew took Lucy upstairs, and as soon as he opened the door, she was overwhelmed by the scene before her.She looked at the roses scattered around the room and turned to Matthew with a complicated expression. “Do you usually stay in rooms like this?”Matthew was stunned too.His room had always been black and minimalistic. There had never been anything fancy like this.Hearing Lucy’s question, he looked at her blankly and confessed, “No, the rooms I stay in are usually dark and minimal. I don’t know what’s going on today.”Lucy and Matthew just stood there and stared at each other.Finally, Lucy could not bear staring at the marvel that was his face any longer, so she looked away.Matthew was relieved that she looked away, or else he would not have been able to keep himself in control.He hurriedly explained. “Lulu, you have to believe me. My room is not usually like this. You’ve seen my room. It’s dark and minimal.”Lucy’s ears were still red. She nodded without a second tho

    Lucy agreed and walked into her room.Immediately, she noticed how girly the room was. There were even roses and pink peonies everywhere.The many floral decorations completely changed the room’s aesthetic into a more feminine style, making it look luxurious, extravagant, and even a little romantic.Lucy was very pleased with the design. She looked around and remembered Matthew’s instructions to open the wardrobe.She opened it and was shocked by the clothes inside. Not only was there the bathrobe Matthew mentioned, but there was even a nurse uniform, a sailor uniform, dress shirts, and a lot more.The most outrageous things were the bunny costume, maid costume, and such.Lucy was so embarrassed that her head was about to explode. Was Matthew hoping that she would wear these?Why else would these things be in her wardrobe?Matthew had been falsely accused.Although Matthew wanted to see his wife beautifully dressed up, he would not step out of line and do something like that.

    On the way to the hot springs, every staff member they passed by gaped at them.Who was that cute woman? Why was she going around with Matthew?Was it true that the CEO had found a wife? Was she the rumored Mrs. Leon? They stared at the lovely Lucy alongside the cold Matthew in amazement. They were the perfect match.Their stares did not make Lucy uncomfortable, but she did find it strange. “Matt, why do I feel like they’re all looking at me?”Matthew noticed the attention directed toward his wife, and he frowned at everyone’s nosy gazes.He pulled Lucy closer and hugged her in his arms before he swept his cold gaze around him.All the staff members lowered their gaze. Only then did he whisper into Lucy’s ear, “They’re not looking at you.”Lucy looked up from Matthew’s chest doubtfully. To her surprise, no one was looking at her anymore.Soon, she forgot all about it. Upset, she struggled in Matthew’s arms and said, “Why are you holding me for no reason? It’s hard to walk like

    As Gabriella examined the luxurious clothes, bags, shoes, and pants, she could not help but feel that Lucy was completely unappreciative of such treasures. She failed to utilize them to enhance her appearance! They spent quite a while going through the various garments and accessories, yet there were still items they had not finished checking out.Lucy gave an awkward smile, acknowledging her own laziness. After a long search, Gabriella finally found a piece that caught her eye. As she checked the tag, she was surprised to find that the dress was designed by a renowned French designer. It featured a V-neck, with simple yet elegant sleeves that revealed a hint of Lucy's arms, while the skirt was a refined and tailored fit.Gabriella held up the dress against Lucy, murmuring to herself, “Hmm, this one’s nice! You should try it on!” Even though she spoke to Lucy in a tone reminiscent of an older sister, she still maintained her authority as a mother-in-law. It made her words both

    Matthew noticed Lucy’s absent-mindedness and asked gently, "Lulu, what’s on your mind?"“Oh, nothing… I just think what happened to Charlotte is so sudden,” Lucy replied.“Don’t worry about it. It has nothing to do with us. She was always trying to harm you. Her fate is something she brought upon herself.” Matthew patted her head comfortingly.However, Lucy found it suspicious. Although the news reported Charlotte’s assassination and that the monastery had burned down to ashes, it did not mention her body. That kind of crucial detail would not have been overlooked by the media.Matthew had also considered this possibility, but he had kept it to himself to avoid alarming Lucy. Charlotte had been sent to the monastery because of him and Lucy, and she had to harbor a deep hatred for them. If she managed to orchestrate her own escape, what if she was now seeking help from Spades to target Lucy? That would be dangerous.“Lulu, don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to you or the ch

    With nothing left to hold onto, Charlotte walked down the empty streets, her heart heavy with despair. She wore a black veil that covered her completely, revealing only her eyes. She even had on dark sunglasses. She dared not walk in the open or be seen, nor did she dare expose Juliana’s crimes to the world.She used to be a princess. Everything she had done, every privilege and indulgence, was backed by Arthur and Juliana’s love and permission. Now that her supporters had betrayed her, what right did she have to be reckless or demand anything? Surviving itself was a luxury. How could she even think of acting willfully?As she wandered in anguish, Charlotte found herself by the river. She remembered coming here with Arthur and Juliana when she was a child, laughing and walking along the bank. Now, each memory felt painfully ironic, and every kiss from Juliana seemed sickening. How could her world be so false? How could even the people she trusted most turn against her?Charlotte cou

    Charlotte continued to hide within the castle, unwilling to leave and equally unwilling to let anyone know she was alive—unless they promised never to send her back to the monastery. However, she doubted that would happen, so she kept to the shadows. After all, the castle had plenty of food. It was far better than anything at the monastery.One night, Charlotte quietly slipped into Arthur and Juliana's bedroom. To her surprise, Arthur was not there, and only Juliana was present. 'Dad must be too upset to sleep,' Charlotte thought. She knew him well—whenever he was troubled, he would retreat to the study rather than go to bed.As she watched her beloved mother, a tiny bit of her resolve wavered. Juliana looked utterly exhausted, as if she had lost a lot of weight in just a few days. Charlotte had a sudden urge to go in and comfort her, but she knew that was impossible. Charlotte realized that seeing someone through a wall of separation was the most painful thing of all.Just as

    The next morning, news of the assassination attempt on Charlotte was sensationalized across all media outlets. The internet was flooded with headlines about her close brush with death, sparking worldwide shock. No one could believe that Charlotte, notorious for her arrogance and harsh treatment of offenders, could have been targeted like this. Many who resented her strict, often cruel ways were both thrilled and stunned by the news. The royal family immediately tightened security at the monastery, dispatching a large police force to investigate what had happened. The monastery became a focal point of public intrigue.“What? That's impossible! How could there be no trace?” Juliana exclaimed in disbelief. Standing before her was the chief forensic investigator.“Yes, Your Majesty, there's no sign of Princess Charlotte’s remains,” the investigator confirmed firmly.“Fine, I understand. Leave me, and keep me informed if anything changes,” Juliana replied, pressing her fingers to her

    As the footsteps came closer, Charlotte held her breath, not daring to make a sound. Suddenly, a shadowy figure appeared—it was clear they were targeting her. She watched as the figure approached the bed, moving so quietly it was as if they made no sound at all. What could they possibly be planning? Surely, the headmistress would not go this far?The figure drew closer to the bed, bundled up the pillows and blankets, and then doused something over them. Charlotte could smell it—it was gasoline! Was the headmistress planning to kill her to silence her? She froze, unable to move. The shadow struck a match and dropped it onto the bed. In an instant, flames surged up from the blankets.In the fire’s glow, Charlotte could make out that it was not the headmistress but a man. After setting the fire, he quickly slipped away without making a single sound. Charlotte crept out while stifling a cough, afraid he might hear and return. The flames grew quickly, engulfing the bed and spreading t

    Over the past year or so, Charlotte had gradually come to understand that the world was not just about picturesque landscapes and lavish feasts. In the shadows, beyond her sight, lay a world full of schemes and deception. Despite her ongoing attempts to plot against Lucy Quinn, she had not noticed this aspect at all until she arrived at the monastery. Here, she realized how dark human nature could truly be.The women at the monastery constantly criticized and belittled her, while the headmistress was corrupt, using her position for personal vendettas. She was also driven by greed for wealth and status. All Charlotte wanted was to escape this dreadful place and return to her castle. She wanted to go back to her plush, comfortable bed. There, she led a life surrounded by maids tending to her every need.Thinking of this, she remembered Lucy and envisioned her seated in her rightful place, basking in the affection of Arthur and Juliana. She could see Lucy's haughty expression starin

    In a moment of heat, Charlotte blurted everything out. Joan was dumbfounded! Was this really Charlotte? She usually did not talk this much, did she? It was not just Joan who was shocked; the headmistress across from Charlotte was equally taken aback. Charlotte was usually so obedient. How had her tongue turned so venomous today? The headmistress was left speechless as every word Charlotte said was so reasonable that no one could argue against it, and it even warranted some compliments! Although Charlotte was confronting the headmistress, each of her statements felt like a plea for justice.Charlotte was not done yet and continued, “Since you know I’m a princess, you should give me some consideration. Yet, in reality, I’m the one giving you all the consideration. Is that reasonable?” Charlotte’s arguments were layered and logical, her thoughts clear. It left the headmistress in a muddle while Joan looked on with envy! The headmistress glanced at Charlotte, feeling quite displease
