Chapter 73: He Is So Different

Tony exchanged a quick "excuse me" with Agatha before swiftly answering the call."Hello, Mr. Tony, we've discovered something unusual at the river bank. You should come and see for yourself," a voice crackled through the phone's speaker.Tony's brow creased as he pondered what could have caught their attention. "I'll be there shortly. Just give me a few minutes," he replied.Ending the call, Tony turned to Agatha and informed her, "The search team has found something that needs my immediate attention. I must leave."Although Agatha wished for a moment to discuss personal matters with Tony, she realized the timing was not right. She managed a smile and said, "Alright, don't forget to give me a call."Tony nodded and made his way to his car. He stepped in, started the engine, and drove off from the church.The drive home was exceptionally quiet for Andrea, but Pete and Lucas were engaged in hushed whispers and chuckles, their hands locked in the playful competition of a fist game.As A

Chapter 74: I Am Now Valentine Anderson

Mrs. Anderson was overwhelmed with words she had longed to express to the son she had given up so many years ago, but when faced with him, she found herself speechless."Hahaha, mom, I knew it, you've never really seen me as your son," Lucas Anderson said with a smile that failed to mask his deep sadness.Mrs. Anderson's grip tightened on her dress, a wave of panic setting in. Without hesitation, she replied, "I care about you, you are my son, I've never loved you any less."Lucas Anderson's lips twisted into a sardonic smile as he fixed a piercing gaze on Mrs. Anderson, who became even more unsettled. Shaking his head, he sighed, "You say you love me, but it seems money has always meant more to you than I ever did."Before he could finish, Mrs. Anderson cut in, "No, I do love you. I sold you to that wealthy couple because I was desperate. I couldn't afford your medical bills; you were so ill."Tears began to well in her eyes as she defended herself, memories flooding back of the day

Chapter 75: Get The Code

Andrea believed he was upset because she hadn't sought his input before making the decision. Unbeknownst to her, Lucas responded with a look of extreme disinterest, saying, "You're the boss, you make the decisions. I don't really care about that stuff."Andrea's eyes widened in shock at his response. The Valentine Anderson she knew would have been concerned and eager to address any issues promptly to prevent any negative impact on the company or the staff.The person standing before her, however, appeared indifferent and uninterested. If she had known this was Lucas Anderson, she would have understood."I'm going to go take a shower and change so we can leave together," Lucas Anderson said as he walked towards Andrea. He kissed her cheek before disappearing into the bathroom.Despite her reservations, Andrea didn't linger in suspicion. She promptly exited the room, and shortly thereafter, Valentine Anderson joined her in the living room. Together, they set off for the Singers Headquar

Chapter 76: First Night Together

From the rearview mirror, Lucas Anderson observed the man speaking. His face was concealed by a mask featuring a symbol of a half moon at its center."Do you think I'll end up falling for her?" Lucas Anderson inquired nonchalantly, his expression betraying no hint of interest.The masked man remained silent for a moment before speaking in a deep, assured voice, "Anyone else might fall for her, but not you."Lucas Anderson was unfazed by the masked man's reply; in fact, he chuckled and remarked, "Ha! You're no fun."A quiet descended in the car as they both sat there without further conversation. After a few minutes, Lucas Anderson finally broke the silence, saying, "I need you to get rid of the mother and child."The masked man expressed surprise, "You're doing this for her?" he inquired.Lucas Anderson replied with a smile, "No, I simply disdain those who value money over life. So, kindly assist me in sending them away through fire." His demeanor and expression suggested he was discu

Chapter 77: The Rescued Survival

Andrea's brow creased in deep thought, a nagging suspicion that the man she married had become a stranger to her growing stronger by the day. She walked determinedly to her phone and punched in a number.The phone emitted two short rings before being answered by a deep, resonant voice, "Good morning, Ma'am Andrea.""Morning, Runnel," Andrea replied crisply. "I need you to investigate when and from whom my husband learned to draw," she commanded, issuing a clear directive to the person on the other end of the line.A brief exchange followed before Andrea ended the call, sinking into her bed, lost in contemplation of the many ways Valentine Anderson had changed over the years.Shaking off her reverie, Andrea briskly readied herself for work. Over breakfast, she casually asked her housekeeper, "Win, where are Pete and my husband?"The housekeeper's face lit up with a broad smile as she recalled the morning's events. Pete had been on the verge of a tantrum, but Lucas Anderson had deftly i

Chapter 78: Mrs. Anderson Called

Since Lucas Anderson showed up at her wedding, Andrea's interest in the search team's results waned. "We must find the rescuers and reward them generously, as well as compensate the victim's family," she stated, then returned her focus to the papers in her hands.Tony sensed Andrea's disinterest and his expression soured. A single look conveyed that she didn't care about the missing victim.Unable to resist any longer, Tony playfully remarked, "Andrea, what if the man you're living with isn't Valentine Anderson?"Surprised, Andrea looked up and smiled at Tony, assuming he was joking. "Tony, that's absurd. Stop teasing," she responded.Accepting Andrea's response, Tony abandoned the idea of persuading her further. He stood up and exited Andrea's office.As Andrea left her office for the day, it was already 10 pm. She got into her car and drove home. Arriving at her mansion, her phone began to ring.She glanced at the phone's screen and saw that it was a call from Mrs. Anderson."Hello,

Chapter 79: Not Love But Guilt

Lucas Anderson returned Andrea's phone to its original place before proceeding to his wardrobe to select his outfits for the next day. After taking a bath, he climbed into bed and fell asleep. Meanwhile, Andrea finished her work in the study room and returned to the bedroom to find Lucas already asleep.Upon seeing that he wasn't waiting for her, Andrea felt a pang of sadness. She quietly slipped under the duvet and lay down beside him.The following morning, as Lucas Anderson awoke, his vision was immediately filled with Andrea's face hovering inches from his own. He studied her features with a deep sense of adoration, whispering softly, "You are so gorgeous, Andrea. I could spend a lifetime just gazing at you and never tire of it." With these words lingering in the air, he reluctantly slid out of bed.Lucas reached for a pen and scribbled something on a piece of paper. Glancing back at the bed, he noticed Andrea beginning to awaken. "Good morning, Sunshine," he greeted her warmly, h

Chapter 80: Think Of Your Son

Mrs. Anderson struggled to muster the courage to reveal the truth to Andrea, knowing that Andrea deserved to know after the betrayal that had occurred in the past. However, the guilt of abandoning Lucas back then weighed heavily on her, making it impossible for her to speak up."Mom, is everything okay?" Andrea asked, noticing Mrs. Anderson's hesitation and the emotions playing on her face.Forcing a smile, Mrs. Anderson replied, "Andrea, remember to love your husband, treat him well, and help heal his wounds."Confusion clouded Andrea's expression as she tried to make sense of her cryptic words. Mrs. Anderson, unable to elaborate further, simply stood up, her sorrow evident in every step as she walked away.Andrea observed her actions with deep thought as she prepared to depart."Mom, I'm heading out now," Andrea announced before rising to her feet. She considered going to her room to speak with Mrs. Anderson about what was troubling her, but she had a client waiting and needed to ge
