Matthew was startled by what he heard. This place felt strange and eerie—what did they mean by 'bad spirits'? He had never believed in such superstitions.Still, he thought that he should do as the Romans did. He dared not deny anything outright. Besides, he had no idea what punishment might await him for breaking any rules here. He had heard that people in ancient times would sometimes cook offenders alive.The thought horrified him, cold sweat forming on his brow. However, considering how much they revered him, there should not be any major issues, right?Matthew was also puzzled by the two sisters. Why did the younger sister not care about her appearance? Did she dress like this every day? That seemed far too careless!“My sister already has someone in her heart, and it won’t be long before she’s married,” Esther said with a smile, playfully teasing Eugenie beside her.Eugenie did not react much when her fiancé was mentioned. Matthew noticed that she had eaten all the cake on t

Matthew watched in shock as the group tied up a young girl while chanting loudly, though their exact words were unclear. The noise was loud enough for others nearby to hear, so why was no one stopping them? He found the situation absurd and quickly rushed forward to see what they were doing.As he approached, yelling at the top of his lungs, no one paid him any attention. It was as if they could not hear him at all.Matthew tried to untie the ropes binding the girl, but to his surprise, his hands could not touch the ropes—or her, for that matter. His hands passed through them like they were not even there.Panicking, he ran over to flip the table, but the same thing happened. He could not move it as his hands went right through. Matthew was confused. He looked around and saw no one else nearby, but there, on the path, was a person. Relief washed over him.He ran toward the person, hoping for help, sprinting as fast as he could.When he reached the figure, the person had their head

Samantha arrived at Lucy's house early in the morning, uninvited by anyone. Without seeking anyone's permission, she came over without explaining her reasons.Fortunately, Lucy had already reinforced the gate earlier, and the security guards did not let Samantha in. Lucy woke up at 8:00 pm and leisurely walked over to see what was going on.“Well, well, Lucy Quinn, you’re actually refusing to let me in. You’ve got some nerve!” Samantha began to scold Lucy as soon as she saw her, convinced that not opening the gate for her was an unforgivable offense.Lucy did not respond immediately. She yawned and stretched lazily. Only after feeling at ease did she even acknowledge Samantha’s presence.“What’s the matter? Do you need something?” Lucy asked, staring at her blankly without a trace of guilt.Why should she feel guilty? She owed no one anything and had not taken anything from anyone. Now, with Matthew hovering between life and death, she had to take care of their children by herself

Lucy definitely did not want to go back, so she decisively refused Theodore. She was not a little girl who needed her brother's protection; she was now a grown woman who had to protect her family.Theodore felt a bit regretful but respected his sister’s choice. He did not want to go back either as seeing Annabella's face annoyed him. It was better to stay here, where he could live freely and do whatever he pleased. He felt proud of his sister's growth; the little girl had finally grown up.Hearing the cries of the children, Lucy knew she was about to get busy again, but she did not mind. The little golden retriever and the cat always stayed beside the two children, never leaving their side. They might not understand what companionship was or the complexity of human emotions, but they had their own way of repaying humans. The retriever would cheer up its owners with its energy, while the cat, though sometimes aloof, was always gentle with the children.During the days without Matth

Venus had been gazing out the window when Theodore noticed she seemed to be in a bad mood. He wanted to comfort her but hesitated. Instead of driving her home, he took a different route.Venus did not realize they were off course until quite a while later when she questioned Theodore with a confused look. “Where is this? I want to go home,” Venus' voice was gentle, like a lark.Theodore did not respond, continuing to drive with a determined expression. He showed no intention of explaining. Seeing he was ignoring her, Venus fell silent. She stole glances at Theodore, her heart racing. Today, he wore a white shirt and more formal trousers, true to his usual style. The affordable watch he wore made him seem approachable.As Venus tried to look up again, Theodore suddenly stopped the car and glanced at her. Their eyes met, and her heart raced even faster as she thought, 'This is so awkward!'Theodore was clean-shaven and looked every bit as good as Matthew. Right now, his gaze wa

"I..." Venus turned her head to look at Theodore. Her eyes were so captivating that no one would want to look away. Coupled with the close proximity, Venus appeared even more alluring.Theodore could no longer hold back. He turned Venus around, pressing her against the edge of the hot air balloon, pinning her firmly in place. He leaned in and forcefully kissed her lips. He had been waiting for this moment for far too long.Venus, not understanding what had just happened, felt her heart warm up. She was completely drawn in by Theodore's presence.She slowly closed her eyes but suddenly thought of her husband. She wanted to escape.However, Theodore held her even tighter, not leaving her any chance to break free.Venus struggled, but in the end, she could not escape.After about ten minutes, Theodore, breathing heavily, slowly let her go.Both of them were radiating heat, their faces flushing red.Embarrassed, Venus lowered her head.

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.

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
