They had to be responsible for everything at home, at the company, and their sons. Matthew finally could not hold back and vented about the events of the past few years and recent happenings. Laying on the desk, he started crying. He had been feeling extremely guilty about Lucy's disappearance, and beneath the guilt was the worry for his lover’s safety. He missed his wife so much. Charlie, upon hearing that Matthew was going on vacation, feared he might do something foolish and immediately said he would go too. Hudson could not go due to the many company matters and ongoing legal issues surrounding the attack on him previously, so he only met up with Matthew and urged him to take care of himself. Selena Carden and Koven originally wanted to go too, but they had too many things to deal with and h

Why are we going to this creepy place now?”Matthew was far ahead of Charlie, and when he turned back, he could not help but laugh.This was where the police had found the necklace. Matthew had not stopped looking for Lucy, and he had been monitoring this place for a long time.He had searched all the other places where he thought she might be but with disappointing results.

It was not very deep—about 1.6 meters. The surrounding vegetation was lush, making it a good place.Matthew looked at the water and went to the spot where the necklace was found. He tested the water with his hand and sniffed the air.“Ready?” Matthew stood up and saw that Charlie had already changed into his swimwear and was wearing diving goggles. He was all set to go.…Koven and Selen

Who would be knocking on the door at this hour? The two of them looked at each other in confusion.“Who is it?” Charlie asked uneasily.There was no response. Charlie cautiously walked over, silently counting down before opening the door. “Matthew!” Samantha shouted, presenting a beautiful bouquet of roses in front of Charlie.Charlie smiled awkwardly, realizing that the mysterious visitor was Samantha.Samantha, seeing Charlie, secretly complained in disappointment about why it was not Matthew who opened the door. She tried to walk in but was quickly blocked by Charlie. He feared she might do something inappropriate while Lucy was not around.Matthew hid the note and signaled for her to come in.“How did you know I was here?” Matthew asked with a smile, inviting Samantha to sit and have tea.

A voice came from behind them. It was Melanie. “Where are you two going?” she asked, probing with a puzzled look on her face. Her smile was superficial, masking a sinister undertone. She had changed into a different outfit. It was not the one she had left home in, but she still carried the same bag. This sight in broad daylight was highly suspicious.Selena eyed this cunning woman, thinking it best not to act rashly. She wanted to see what tricks Melanie had up her sleeve. Koven was trying to predict her next move and habitually positioned Selena behind him to shield her from any potential harm.“Mrs. Quinn, so you come here every day to check on the farm, huh? Your taste is really unique,” Koven taunted the flustered Melanie. He could see she was feigning calmness, but inside, she was panicking.Melanie pretended to be clueless about the situation and attempted to leave. Koven blocked her path and signaled for Selena to grab the bag. Leaping forward, Selena snatched the heavy, un

"Hello, I need to make a report!" Matthew immediately called the police and explained all the information about the criminal. After understanding the situation, the police quickly prepared a rescue plan.Matthew, holding cash, walked alone to West Bridge. He was guided by the police through his earpiece. This kind of extortion was not new to the police, so they were 60% confident of success. However, the remaining 40% of uncertainty lay in the unpredictability of the criminal. To demand such a large sum, there had to be a complex operation behind it. Therefore, Matthew felt an added sense of caution after the police briefing.Looking around, the area was sparsely populated and otherwise unremarkable. However, it was surprising that the criminal chose this location since criminals typically picked crowded places to blend in. This added to the complexity, but the criminal surely had his reasons. As long as the money was there, he would act.Matthew approached West Bridge when his ph

“What’s going on? Why is Matthew missing? Weren't you monitoring him?” Gabriella asked her subordinates anxiously, stomping her foot in frustration.Gabriella suppressed media news, fearing that the situation would escalate and more criminals would take advantage. She spent a huge amount of money, requesting the police to find Matthew and bring him back unharmed.The police who went with him that day were scolded by their superiors. They had been following Matthew, but later, due to the flat terrain and lack of hiding spots, they could not keep up.However, Matthew did not completely follow the police's guidance and made wrong choices, leading to this situation. He had always been too arrogant, known far and wide for his loyalty and righteousness toward his friends.This might be the second mistake in his life. The first was with his beloved wife, Lucy Quinn. This was something he could never forgive himself for. Matthew even firmly believed his wife was still somewhere waiting for

“It’s you!” The masked man took off his mask, and Matthew could hardly believe his eyes. The man before him was Timothy.Timothy stood up, walked over to Matthew, grabbed his chin, and examined him from left to right with a satisfied look. He said, “You’re really quite handsome!”Then, he disdainfully tossed Matthew aside.“I heard that Lucy is missing. As her husband, you must miss her, right? Want to see her now?” Timothy chuckled eerily, wanting to see Matthew's nervous reaction. Matthew immediately became tense, but with the sedative in his system, he could not move. He could only grit his teeth and ask for news of Lucy, saying he would pay any amount.Matthew spread the money he brought yesterday all over the ground, and in an instant, the fake money floated around, reflecting in the mirrors of the room.Timothy laughed, his laugh even more terrifying as it echoed throughout the space.Matthew looked at him helplessly with no fear. He just did not know Timothy had this s

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.

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
