Chapter 65

Author: Tang Eighteen
Matthew was preoccupied the entire day. As soon as he finished work, he hastily got into his car and drove to Lucy’s company.

Everyone in the company was confused. “What’s wrong with Mr. Leon today? Why is he in such a hurry?”

“Maybe he’s in a hurry to see his wife,” some speculated.

“I heard that Mr. Leon got married.”

When the other employees realized what was going on, they smiled. “I see. Who would have thought that even Mr. Leon’s weakness was a woman’s beauty?”

“I know right!”

Oblivious to the gossip in the company, Matthew was still worrying about how he was going to break the news to his wife.

Soon, he arrived at Lucy’s company and waited for her downstairs anxiously.

About 15 minutes later, Lucy rushed downstairs. Struggling to catch her breath, it took her a while before she could stand up straight.

“Why are you here so early? How long were you going to wait if I hadn’t seen you?”

Matthew was still looking at her concernedly. He took out a bottle of water from the c

    ”Matt?” Lucy’s face turned pale, and her voice was trembling.Matthew panicked when he heard Lucy’s tone. He looked at her seriously and said, “Lulu, are you alright? Why do you look so unwell all of a sudden?”He wondered if Lulu had figured out what he was going to tell her.It was his fault for being overly nosy and looking into this matter. What was he going to do now that Lulu had found out? She had just been diagnosed with a heart condition a few days ago, so she could not get too emotional.“Matt, is there something wrong with your body too?” Lucy asked with a pale face. Her heart was pounding, fearing that something had really happened to Matthew.Matthew was taken aback. “Lulu, why do you say so?“I’m in good health. I go to the gym twice a week, and my doctor gives me a check-up every month. If there’s anything wrong with me, you'll be the first to know.”Lucy was relieved after hearing his explanation. She patted her chest and said, “I’m glad you’re fine, but don’t sc

    Matthew should not have brought this up. He patted the back of his head regretfully, but he could not take back his words now. He had already told Lucy about it, and it was impossible to turn back time. He had no choice but to continue.“I asked the doctor to use a blood sample from your examination and compare it with the DNA extracted from Melanie's and Luna’s hair samples. The results show that you’re not blood-related at all,” Matthew stuttered. He could not even feel his mouth.Now that he finally managed to get the words out, he looked at Lucy nervously. He was afraid that she would faint from the shock.Lucy was stunned for a long time. Only when she came to her senses did she casually respond with an ‘oh’.Matthew found her reaction to be strange. “Lulu, why don’t you seem surprised?”She shook her head. “What else am I supposed to do? Act sad?”Matthew was at a loss. “Um… Shouldn’t you be sad?”“That’s how normal people would react.” Lucy looked at Matthew helplessly.

    Matthew and Lucy hugged each other for a while before reluctantly letting go.He tidied her hair after it got messy and asked with concern, “Are you feeling okay?”She replied, “I’m fine. You don’t have to worry.”She was starting to get frustrated. Why was her boyfriend starting to feel more like a father figure to her?Unaware of her thoughts, Matthew was relieved to hear her say that everything was fine. He took Lucy’s hand and walked toward the villa’s backyard.Lucy looked at him in confusion. “Matt, where are you taking me?”Matthew turned and winked at her. “I’m not telling you. What do you think I’m going to do to you?”She was so mesmerized by his dashing looks that her face turned red and her heart skipped a beat. What on earth was his problem?Lucy stared at him blankly. How was he better at winking than her?“How would I know? I can’t read your mind,” she said while blushing.Looking at his wife’s face, Matthew’s smile grew wider. “Wifey, you're so cute that I’ll

    When Lucy finally got it, she rolled her eyes at Matthew angrily.“I get it now. You rely on your money to woo women. You seem like you have a lot of experience.”After saying that, she lightly hit him. Matthew played along with her adorable flirting. He acted as if he was in pain, but he secretly liked it. “What are you talking about, wifey? I may be rich, but I don’t use it to woo women. I’ve only ever put in this much effort for you.”This man was too much…Lucy put down the hand that was about to hit him and covered her face instead. She could not possibly continue hitting him after hearing him say that.Seeing as Lucy had loosened her grip, Matthew took the opportunity and leaned closer to her face to steal a kiss. “Since you’re not hitting me anymore, that means that you’ve forgiven me.”“Don’t push it,” Lucy muttered, but he still did not move away. The two of them talked and laughed in the garden for a long time before returning to the villa.While stretching, Lucy said

    After dinner, Matthew and Lucy sent Vito off while sweating profusely.Once he left, Lucy slumped onto the couch. “Mr. Vito is terrifying.”Matthew nodded as the fear lingered in him. The two of them only managed to calm down after a while.Speaking of Vito, Lucy suddenly remembered something. She turned to look at Matthew. “Matthew, Mr. Vito watched you grow up, right?”Matthew nodded. “Yes, Mr. Vito and I are like family.”“Does Mr. Vito have any children of his own?”Matthew shook his head.“Mr. Vito’s son and daughter were killed in a car accident…”“I’m sorry.” Lucy fell silent.“It’s okay. Mr. Vito isn’t here anyway. Just make sure not to mention it in front of him,” Matthew warned her.She nodded quickly and changed the topic. “Let’s not talk about Mr. Vito, then. Let’s talk about you.“Matt, I’ve lived with you for so long, but I’ve never seen your parents.”Matthew fell silent again. He did not speak for a while.She blinked at him blankly. Uh oh. Did she say some

    ”That’s basically how my family situation is. By the way, do you want me to help you find your biological parents?" Matthew looked at Lucy worriedly. The issue was clearly bothering her because she usually never mentioned her family.Lucy was startled by Matthew’s sudden words. “Find my biological parents?”She got a little excited at that moment, but after thinking about it, she calmed herself down and refused. “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”“Why not? Isn’t it better to find your biological parents?” Matthew could not understand.She hung her head down low. “I do want to find them, but if they abandoned me, they’re probably not going to welcome me.” Lucy smiled bitterly.Matthew looked at her in distress and comforted her when he was reminded of her congenital heart disease. “Don’t think that. Lulu, you've had the disease since you were born, and the doctor would’ve noticed it for sure. "The fact that you survived means that you were taken good care of. How could they not

    ”I have to shower first.”Lucy practically flew into the bathroom.She stood in front of the mirror, patting her red face. Why did she have to say that she wanted to sleep in Matthew’s room?There was no turning back now. Those words had already come out of her mouth.Even if Matthew wanted to do it, Lucy could not stop him since they were legally married now.After mentally preparing herself, Lucy took off her clothes and filled up the bathtub. She eased into the soothing warmth and felt her nerves relax. All the fatigue seemed to have melted away from her body.Thinking back on all the recent events, Lucy fell into a trance. So much had happened.She could barely remember how she lived previously…Now, all she could think about was the time she spent with Matthew. It felt like her life had only truly begun once she encountered him.Lucy closed her eyes. Before she knew it, she fell asleep in the bathtub.Matthew sat outside the room with a notebook in his hand, dealing with

    Matthew tried to buckle her bra clumsily for a long time, but he could not do it! In the end, Matthew gave up. Forget it, Lulu could do it herself tomorrow morning.Matthew just simply put the nightgown on Lucy.After that, he pulled the blanket over her and wrapped her up like a pupa. Then, he climbed into bed and held Lucy in his arms. It was not that he wanted to hold her over the blanket, but he was worried that if he held her directly, he would not be able to control himself.That was not the outcome Matthew wanted. Lucy had not wholeheartedly put her trust in him yet, so he did not want to force her.Early the next morning, Lucy woke up from the heat.She opened her eyes in a daze and caught sight of Matthew’s face.She was getting used to seeing his face every day.However, she was not used to being tightly wrapped up in a blanket. She looked down in silence, feeling a sense of despair.Did she pull the blanket over to her side last night? How was she supposed to get out

    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
