"What’s going on?” Matthew looked at the two of them doubtfully.“After hearing about the anonymous investor in your office last time, I asked Koven to look into it, and we’ve found something.” Hudson cast Matthew a glance.Matthew immediately tensed up when he heard that it was about the anonymous investor.“So, what’s the problem?”Koven said, “After looking into it, I think it may be related to Spades. It seems that Sunrise Group might be their puppets, and the anonymous investor is likely associated with them. We haven’t identified who that person is yet, but we’re certain that Spades is still after you and Lucy.”Matthew turned to look outside.Seeing his reaction, Hudson added out of concern, “I suggest you be cautious with your collaboration with Sunrise Group. It’s not a small project, so you must scrutinize every single detail.”Matthew nodded at Hudson’s words and said, “Why are you and Koven helping me?”Hudson was silent, not knowing how to respond. Meanwhile, Koven

"Should we go out for a meal?” Koven looked at Matthew and Hudson expectantly.Rolling his eyes at Koven, Matthew turned to say to Hudson instead, “Sure, let’s go.”Hudson and Koven exchanged looks before following behind Matthew.Matthew stopped by Lucy’s door and looked at her. Since she was still busy working, he did not want to disturb her. He proceeded to take the others out for a meal.Lucy glanced at the clock and realized it was already way past five, but she was still not satisfied with her initial draft. She decided to finish it up before having dinner, fearing she might lose her inspiration if she paused midway.The upcoming Hype and Elegance Fashion Show was really important to her. If it went well, she could potentially be the lead designer. Otherwise, she would have to keep trying harder.Lucy was designing a pastel dress with trumpet sleeves. It was cinched at the waist with a black belt to accentuate the model's figure. The skirt had a slight pleating at the hem t

Koven’s observations were accurate. The general interior of Rankins was fancy yet low-key, but Matthew’s private room was anything but low-key—it was outright opulent.Matthew owned only a few restaurants, but each of them had its own private room. None of them were chain establishments, and they all required reservations.Despite having private rooms available at every restaurant, Matthew rarely visited. This was only his second visit to Rankins, the first being when he was pursuing Lucy.“What would you like to eat? Feel free to order anything you want,” Matthew said to both of them while the manager appeared with the menu, smiling warmly.Hudson gestured to Koven, prompting him to take the menu.“Do you have any signature or specialty dishes here?”The manager nodded eagerly. “Yes, we do.”“I don’t need to look at the menu. Just bring us ten of your signature dishes,” Koven said to the manager, closing the menu.The manager hesitated for a moment upon hearing the order for t

After shaking hands with Hudson, Charlie turned around to extend his hand to Koven. “Hello, I’m Charlie.”It was only then that Koven remembered who Charlie was, so he quickly stood up and shook his hand.“Hello, I’m Koven! I know who you are. You’re that top lawyer! I knew I had heard your voice from somewhere!”Charlie smiled lightly and said humbly, “Oh, no need for that. Just call me Charlie.”The four of them sat down one after another, falling into an awkward silence once more. At that moment, the restaurant manager brought out all the dishes, filling up the table.“Let’s eat,” Matthew said.For some reason, all three of them picked up their cutlery in unison when they heard him say that.Just then, Matthew’s phone rang, and he saw that it was an unfamiliar number. He had the habit of putting his calls on speakerphone, so he swiped to answer and placed his phone on the table.“Hello, Mr. Leon. Do you remember who I am?” A deep voice came from the other end.Hudson, Charl

"Keep an eye on Linus. If he doesn't approach Lucy again, forcibly bring him back to me. I hope I haven’t misjudged him.” Daniel’s gaze was fierce as he stared outside. It was as if the entire world was in the palm of his hand.“Yes, sir. Alice wants you to expedite the situation with Sunrise Group. He said he can’t wait much longer,” his right-hand man spoke before retreating.“Let the show begin,” Daniel muttered under his breath.…“Matthew, what do you think is going on?” Hudson looked into Matthew’s deep gaze.Matthew had fallen into deep thought.“Our collaboration with Sunrise Group is a big project with a 70-30 split, and now, with the anonymous investor involved, I don’t even know where to begin. The most important thing is to ensure we don’t encounter any issues during this project, or else it would harm the company.” Matthew sighed deeply after speaking.“Can’t you just cancel this project with Sunrise Group and work with another company instead?” Koven expressed his

Lucy had been busy all day, completing most of the initial drafts for the Hype and Elegance Fashion Show. However, there were still many details she had yet to refine.“I guess I’m almost done. I haven’t eaten all day. Time to grab some food!” Lucy walked to the employee cafeteria, unsure of what to choose from the array of choices. She checked her phone for any messages from Matthew, but there were none. She texted him to ask how he was doing, but he did not reply.Nevertheless, Lucy was understanding. She knew how busy Matthew was at work, so she thought that he was having a hectic day.Suddenly, she noticed fish and chips from afar, so she hurried over. The sight of it made her tummy growl, so she paid for it and sat down.…Meanwhile, at Rankins, the three men were still waiting for Charlie to explain, but Charlie was still deep in thought.“Charlie, hurry up and tell us. How much longer do we have to wait? We’ll miss our chance to turn things around if you don’t speak up s

"Where should we begin?” Although Koven could not fully understand their plan, he could still grasp some of it.Charlie pushed up his glasses and said to Matthew and Hudson, “First, withdraw the funds from that investor. Then, inform Sunrise Group that there are issues with the project, so visitors will be temporarily prohibited. Once these two steps are done, the rest will fall into place.”Matthew and Hudson nodded and exchanged glances.“Let’s go back to your company, Hudson. I need to pick Lucy up. Koven, are you coming with us?” Matthew patted Hudson on the back and turned to Koven.“Of course! Let’s go, I’m excited to see how Lucy’s designs turned out.” Koven stood up excitedly.Then, Matthew turned to Charlie and asked, “Are you coming with us or will you be staying to finish your meal?”Charlie smiled and replied, “I have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now.”“If the four of us need to discuss anything else in the future, let’s meet here. Since it’s Matthew’s

In the end, Lucy yielded to Matthew’s insistence.Just then, a voice called out, “Mr. Xender!”Hudson turned to see Lacee approaching him.He frowned in confusion as he asked, “Why are you still here?”Lacee walked up to him and said while sulking, “I’ve been working non-stop for the Hype and Elegance Fashion Show, and I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in days. Can’t you show a little more sympathy, Mr. Xender?"Lucy, Matthew, and Koven, who were still in the office, listened in silence, not daring to make a sound.The most uncomfortable among them all was Koven as he was struggling to contain his laughter.Hudson replied seriously, “As important as the fashion show is, you still need to take care of your health. You should go home!”“Oh, Mr. Xender, can’t you at least send me home? My place is so far from here!” Lacee said, placing her hand on Hudson’s shoulder while swaying her body.Hudson’s expression turned completely grim upon hearing that.Meanwhile, Koven could not h

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

Since the previous incident, Lucy had become increasingly attentive to her children. She watched over them at nearly every moment. She feared that Charlotte might seize any chance to harm the children, so she remained vigilant and meticulous, avoiding any lapses.

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
