The four of them exchanged awkward glances, at a loss for words.Koven, realizing the show was over, jumped in with a grin and said, "Come on, let's go grab a bite. How about barbecue? Now that everything's settled, we should celebrate, right?"Charlie could not help but smile at Koven's suggestion. His silence was a quiet nod of approval."Let's head home," Matthew said, taking Lucy's hand and leading her away from the chaos in the theme park.Lucy glanced back and caught Koven's crestfallen expression. She tugged at Matthew's sleeve and murmured, "Come on, let's grab a bite. Chelsea and I are starving, and look how late it's gotten. We haven't even had dinner yet. You wouldn't want us to go hungry, would you?"Matthew, hearing her plea, reluctantly turned to Koven and asked, "Where's the barbecue place? Lead the way, will you?"Koven's mood instantly lifted. He linked arms with Charlie and Hudson and bounced off toward the theme park's exit.A few steps behind, Hugh watched Ch

With a nod, Charlie departed, and the remaining six headed into a cozy private room."Lucy, pick whatever catches your eye and it's yours," Koven offered, sliding the menu across the table to her.Lucy hesitated before scanning the menu. She was not one to fuss over food. She would happily eat whatever was put in front of her."No worries, I'm good with anything. You guys pick." Lucy chuckled awkwardly, nudging the menu back to Koven."Alright. Hudson, you choose," Koven said, handing the menu to Hudson.Hudson, feeling Koven's eager gaze, reluctantly made the order."I guess I'll just order for the group. If anyone has a craving, just voice out," Hudson said, looking around at the others.Chelsea and Hugh gave quick nods.The six friends found themselves sitting in silence, the vibe turning oddly tense.Lucy, wanting to break the ice, swapped seats with Hugh.Now sitting next to Chelsea, Lucy dove into storytelling mode."Hey Chelsea, get this. There was this guy who propos

Hugh, sitting next to them, saw Matthew's delayed reaction and nudged him. "You're going to be a father, man." Hugh's voice was steady. It was not his partner, Chelsea, who was expecting, after all. Matthew finally connected the dots. Lucy had mentioned it had been two months without her period. That meant she...With that thought, Matthew hurried to Lucy, his expression one of sheer disbelief. "Lucy, are we really having a baby?" Lucy glanced at the group, her cheeks flushing with shyness as she murmured, "I'm not sure yet. It's been two months, but I'm still not certain."Without another word, Matthew scooped Lucy up and headed for the door. "What's the rush? Where to?" Lucy protested, squirming in his arms. "Off to the hospital for a check-up," he declared. Lucy was taken aback. Why was everything happening so quickly? She blurted out, "Hey, let's at least finish dinner. I'm starving here. Even if I'm pregnant, you wouldn't want your baby to go hungry, right?"Matthew pau

Lucy rose with the dawn. Matthew had already prepared breakfast and set it out on the table.She surveyed the feast before her, exchanged a warm look with Matthew, and began to eat. Matthew watched her from across the table with a wide grin on his face."Once you're done, let's head to the hospital for a check-up to see what we need to watch out for," Matthew said, his voice thick with emotion.Lucy's cheeks flushed with a rosy hue. She nodded shyly and murmured, "Okay."Meanwhile, Koven was in Hudson's office. He could barely contain his excitement. He was eagerly awaiting Lucy's arrival to share the joyous news....Breakfast concluded, and Matthew escorted Lucy to the Third People's Hospital.Thanks to Matthew's connections, they bypassed the usual wait and went straight in for the examination.Lucy reclined on the examination bed with Matthew at her side. They were both fixated on the nearby monitor.Then, the doctor beside them chimed in, "You're having twins, a boy and a

Koven stood frozen with his phone in hand. He did not even notice that Matthew had hung up. He was lost in his own world until Hudson approached, concern etched on his features."What's got you so spooked?" Hudson prodded. "Something happened? Spill it, man."Snapping out of his daze, Koven's grip found Hudson's arm, and his voice boomed with disbelief. "Twins! A boy and a girl!"Hudson could not help but share in the excitement. He imagined strolling down the street with a kid on each arm, basking in the envy of passersby. Who cared if they were not his? No rule said he could not enjoy the company of someone else's children. The thought alone was enough to send him reeling with joy. He took a moment to sit and steady his racing heart.…Meanwhile, Matthew and Lucy had wrapped up their meal and set out for Hudson's company. With Lucy expecting, they could not risk her getting too tired. They would make sure Hudson gave her extra breaks and keep an eye on her. For once, Matthew

Chelsea, still not quite catching on but feeling like she had been played, quickly shifted back to her usual tone. "Lucy, what are you up to? Are you joking around? Are you getting bold? Just you wait, I'll come after you this afternoon!"Lucy, realizing she might have taken the joke too far, hurriedly apologized, "Oh, I'm so sorry! Really! I went to the hospital with Matthew this morning. It's twins, a boy and a girl."Hearing about the twins, Chelsea's eyes lit up, and she could not contain her joy. She shouted with excitement even through the phone.Lucy, hearing Chelsea's shouts, quickly pulled the phone away and covered her ears."Wow, twins? That makes me the godmother, right? Holy cow! You've totally caught me off guard, Lucy. You're incredible. "I'm swamped today, but I'll swing by tomorrow to catch up. We'll do a little shopping spree and get you some chic maternity wear. We'll also pick out some adorable outfits for the babies."Lucy's grin was so broad at the news tha

Seeing Hugh like this, Chelsea felt sorry for him, but she thought that it was too early for her to have a child. Besides, she had not had enough fun yet. Well, it was not just about having fun. She could barely manage her own time! If a child came into the picture all of a sudden, what was she going to do?If Hugh really wanted a child, she would still be willing to have one because a good man like him was hard to find these days.…When Lucy and Matthew got to the office, they saw Koven and Hudson running toward Lucy with big smiles while ignoring Matthew.Seeing the two of them standing on either side of Lucy made Matthew uncomfortable. Any man would feel the same in this situation.“Wow, twins! How far along are you? How much longer until I can meet my godchildren?” Koven asked, grinning from ear to ear.Hudson stood there, looking just as happy. He would glance at Lucy and then at Matthew every now and then. His eyes were full of blessings for the couple, but more than any

"Sunrise Group is facing bankruptcy,” Matthew said as he lit a cigarette and looked out the window.Hudson and Koven exchanged puzzled glances before quickly sitting down on either side of him and asking what was going on.“After Sunrise Group started having problems, I had Kent buy out all the shares from their shareholders at a high price, including their ongoing projects. Many shareholders have already withdrawn their investments from Sunrise Group.“Now, the company is facing significant risks, and the police are investigating their financial records. From what I know, it’s likely that they’ll find accounting issues with the project we collaborated on, but the crisis has been averted for us since we suspended the project with Sunrise Group. We won't proceed with it any further,” Matthew explained to the both of them.Although Koven could not fully grasp what he meant, he understood that Matthew's side had not suffered any losses and that Sunrise Group was on the verge of bankru

As Gabriella examined the luxurious clothes, bags, shoes, and pants, she could not help but feel that Lucy was completely unappreciative of such treasures.

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
