All Chapters of A Heartwarming Marriage: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

It hadn't been easy for Phantom to finally find something on Lucille, yet his foolish subordinates had brought him someone he didn't even know. Lucille had taken six million dollars from him, and he wasn't going to take that lying down!Bethany was already awake at this point, and she watched Phantom coldly as he raged. She didn't remember ever offending someone like him.It was part of the job to step on toes when working for Spencer, but it wasn't her style to give her opponents the chance to get revenge. Moreover, judging from his words, it looked like she'd been abducted by mistake.Still, she didn't exactly have a common, nondescript appearance. How could they get the wrong person?She shut her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to recall how she'd ended up in his clutches. She and the other assistants were always vigilant because of their proximity to Spencer—it was a basic requirement. She didn't think she'd missed anything out.There'd been a faint scent in her hotel room

Six million dollars?Mack was surprised to hear that. It sounded like a familiar sum of money…Spencer stood tall behind Lucille. He looked like an unshakeable mountain; he was the strongest supporter and shield she'd ever have. He raised an eyebrow while lowering his eyes to look at the back of her head. He smiled faintly.To Phantom's frustration, Lucille said, "I didn't trick you out of anything. I took your money openly."Phantom had never been subject to such frustration in the 28 years of his life, nor had he ever met someone as thick-skinned as her. She sounded so matter-of-fact and calm, too!He glared at her. "You were open about it? That's called stealing! What do you think I am, an ATM?""If I hadn't told you what I'd done, you would've still been in the dark about this." Lucille's attitude was leisurely and flippant from beginning to end, but her words were so arrogant that it made one want to rip one's hair out."So, should I fucking thank you for telling me the t

As everyone watched, Phantom's expression changed from a lifeless one to an ingratiating one. His subordinates couldn't help thinking that it was such a waste that he wasn't an actor. He said, "Get back to what you were doing, guys. This is all a misunderstanding. We're all family here."He waved a hand. His subordinates exchanged looks before leaving. They weren't fools, and they'd heard the earlier conversation. Spencer was their actual boss—when was the best time to leave if not now?They'd stood tall and proud earlier, but now, they scurried away, their backs bent.Phantom led the others to a lavishly decorated room. He looked at Spencer and Lucille, who sat across from him. They were a perfect match, whether in terms of appearance or bearing. He'd never expected to have something so humiliating happen to him one day."Uh, boss, you two are…" he started tentatively. He was no longer as arrogant as before, and his gaze traveled between Lucille and Spencer."She's my wife,"

The tailored suit showed off Spencer's natural nobility, and he was handsome enough that every feature of his was good-looking even when alone.When grouped together, they formed a face that seemed to have been chiseled by the gods. It was flawless. However, the iciness he exuded made one afraid to approach him.Patrick was a researcher, so his outfits were mainly casual. He wore a white shirt, khaki-colored pants, and white sneakers. His style was more neat and bookish, while Spencer's was mature and level-headed. Their styles were completely different, but there was one thing they had in common.Blake couldn't help feeling awkward when he witnessed this scene upon getting out of the car. He'd always known that Patrick had feelings for Lucille.Back then, Patrick had thought that Lucille was too young, at only 19 years of age, so he hadn't confessed his feelings to her. Instead, he'd secretly crushed on her for six years. To this day, she wasn't aware of his feelings.After a bri

After two hours, Spencer held Lucille's hand and left the Horton residence.Initially, Matthew had wanted Lucille to stay for dinner, but if she'd stayed, Spencer would've also wanted to stay. So, in the end, Matthew didn't ask anyone to stay."What did you and Patrick talk about downstairs?" Lucille asked as soon as she got in the car. She'd noticed that Patrick's expression seemed off when she'd left. He rarely looked distracted and gloomy.Spencer fiddled with her fingers and said leisurely, "It's just some stuff between guys."Lucille was at a loss for words, but she explained succinctly, "I just think of Patrick as a brother."Spencer smiled at her words. "I know. After all, I'm better than everyone else. Even a fool would've chosen me."Lucille was rendered speechless again. Spencer had thick skin, but she liked his confidence. This time, she didn't respond to him. Instead, she took out her phone to text someone.…An hour later, Lucille and Spencer had just returned to t
