Chapter 71

Wesley couldn't bring himself to say anything else, so he turned around and left.Inside the car, Eunice slowly raised her head. Her eyes were dull and lifeless. If she hadn't been breathing, she would've looked like a corpse. But to Eunice, staying alive was no different from being dead.She didn't cry because she knew it was useless. It would only incur Ian's wrath. He would simply say that she had no right to cry.In Ian's eyes, Eunice wasn't supposed to have emotions. She wasn't supposed to feel happiness, sadness, and pain. She wasn't allowed to interact with other people either. It was because she didn't deserve it. After all, she was living just to atone for her sins. That was why she'd only lived as an emotionless machine for the last five years.Even if her body was marred with wounds, she couldn't cry out in pain. Even if Ian tore her heart to pieces, she couldn't shed a single tear.Since the woman he'd loved had died because of her, she needed to atone for it for the

Chapter 72

There was a prestigious sanitorium in Whiteloop City named Harmony Sanitorium. Most of the elderly who lived there were rich and only chose to stay there because they didn't want to stay with their children. The units there were built and arranged like a residential area, and each family stayed in one unit. The environment and workers there were also top-tier.William, Ivy, and Sabrina went there early in the morning, but the security guard stopped them at the gates."We're family members here to visit, so why won't you let us in?" Ivy asked the security guard rudely, "Do you know who we are? How dare you stop us?!"The security guard gave them the side-eye. They were well-dressed, but years of working at the sanitorium had already made him used to seeing all sorts of big shots. The three of them were nothing."Sorry, but rules are rules. No matter who you are, you can't enter without a reservation or a keycard."The security card didn't buy what they'd said at all. He only care

Lucille quickly answered the call."Hello, is this Ms. Johnson? I'm the security guard at Harmony Sanitorium, Devin Walker," Devin said politely. It was a complete 180-degree change from how he'd treated William, Ivy, and Sabrina.Lucille frowned upon hearing that the person on the phone was Harmony Sanitorium's security guard. She asked, "Yes. What's wrong?""You see, three people are trying to enter the sanitorium to take Madam Marie home, but I stopped them because they didn't have a reservation or a keycard. "They said they're your parents and your sister, so I called to confirm that," Devin explained.Lucille hadn't expected William to visit Marie with Ivy.Sabrina heard Devin agree with Lucille before hanging up the phone. She asked, "Have you confirmed it?" However, Devin said to her coldly, "Ms. Lucille said she's an only child, and her mother passed away more than a decade ago."Sabrina, Ivy, and William were stunned. Lucille was trying to embarrass them."Dad, mayb

Meanwhile, Lucille had just finished her meeting at Star&Ciel Group.When she returned to her office, Monica walked in and said, "Ms. Johnson, the receptionist called us ten minutes ago and said that your family is here to see you." Ever since Lucille had chased them out of the company last time, Monica had learned that it was better to inform Lucille first.Upon hearing her words, Lucille replied coldly, "I got it. Order the receptionist to tell them that I'm busy."Monica quickly caught on to Lucille's intentions and replied, "Yes, Ms. Johnson.""Mona, wait," Lucille suddenly stopped her."What's the matter, Ms. Johnson?"Lucille looked at her and said, "Tell them to stop coming to me with trivial matters, and to hurry up and give me what I want.""Understood."At the lobby downstairs, William, Ivy, and Sabrina were stopped at the entrance and barred from entering the building. They'd been waiting for more than ten minutes.They'd been stopped by security guards twice tha

The corners of Sabrina's lips were downturned as she frowned. "Grandpa, I—""Alright, that's enough!" Horace interrupted her before scoffing. "I'll call that ungrateful brat myself! I don't believe she'd dare to ignore my calls!"It was like he had amnesia and had forgotten how he'd kicked Lucille out.Meanwhile, Sabrina was overjoyed with Horace's behavior. She believed Lucille was on the path toward death, so she didn't mind making things more difficult for Lucille. …As for Lucille, she'd just finished work and was taking a quick break. That was when her phone buzzed. She looked at her messaging app and saw a few texts from a contact named Moira Norris.They read, "Hello, my dear Ten! I've asked Marley to send you some of the latest chocolates in the market. Kisses!""They've arrived at your house, so remember to collect them! Don't forget, okay?""Oh! And happy Thanksgiving in advance! I'll likely be busy tomorrow, so I might not have time to send my wishes. Hehe, love you

Horace forgot about all his worries when Lucille offered to surrender her shares. To him, nothing mattered more than protecting his family business. "But what?" he asked.Lucille answered, "Hand over the box my mom left behind. Then, I'll give you my shares in Johnson Group. From then on, Star&Ciel Group will have nothing more to do with the Johnson family!"Horace had never imagined that Lucille would still be after that box. However, he knew that Lucille would undoubtedly cut ties with the Johnson Group for good if he gave her the box. If that happened, he and his family wouldn't be able to acquire the other funds from her. So, he refused to give her the box, no matter what."I'll think about it." Horace didn't agree to her request at once.Lucille had never imagined Horace would be this cautious. She'd already agreed to surrender her shares to the Johnsons, yet Horace had still refused to accept her request.She could tell that the Johnsons had a deep secret because they

Chapter 77

Ivy was experienced enough to notice something was amiss with Sabrina's reaction. She asked, "Has Harold laid his lands on you?" Sabrina became abashed as she recalled their wild sex the night before yesterday and nodded. Although she'd always been with Harold, he tended to abide by morals and behave with proper social decorum. So, he usually only gave her a quick peck.As for Sabrina, she didn't act out of line either.However, the night before yesterday, Harold had gotten drunk during a business meeting. Sabrina had picked him up, and they'd ended up having sex later.A lightbulb went off in Ivy's head. "You should get yourself pregnant pronto! That way, the Quall family will let your marry Harold at once.""Mom, that's too soon. Lucille's social media post is still around. Things might go awry," Sabrina declined anxiously. That wasn't what Ivy thought. She believed they needed to get Sabrina married quickly. Otherwise, who knew what could happen? Plus, Ivy knew Harold's mo

Chapter 78

Lucille collected the takeaway food from Zaytun Pavilion before leaving right away.That was when a man tapped Harold's shoulder. "What are you looking at, Harold?" Harold snapped out of his daze and replied, "Nothing. I thought it was someone I knew, but I was mistaken."He believed restaurants like Zaytun Pavilion didn't usually offer a takeaway option. Not to mention, Lucille was even less likely to be qualified to order a takeaway. So, he had to be mistaken."Let's hurry up and get inside, then. Everyone's waiting," replied the man.The two men could only dine at Zaytun Pavilion today because of the wealthy scion inside the restaurant. Otherwise, it was incredibly hard to get a spot at Zaytun Pavilion.Harold followed the man up to a private room on the third floor.The private rooms on the third floor were even more difficult to reserve. Only the wealthy and powerful were able to secure a room."Oh, right, Harold. Doesn't your family have connections with the Talbots? The

Chapter 79

Seth's attention snapped toward the sound of the opening door. He wanted to see who'd dared open Spencer's office door without asking for permission to enter first. He saw a tall, striking woman in a dark green dress standing at the door. She also held a takeaway bag with the words Zaytun Pavilion on it. That put Seth in a daze as he wondered if the pretty woman was here to deliver food.Yet, Lucille never once looked at Seth.She stood at the door. As she looked at Spencer, who sat on the main chair, her gaze was so calm that one couldn't tell she was bothered. "Is what he said true?""No." Spencer shook his head. Then, he got up and approached her.Upon hearing the former's response, Lucille let out a casual "oh."Sitting on the couch, Seth looked back and forth at the two. Shock glazed his eyes as he wondered if he was mistaken. He couldn't believe he'd seen a tinge of fear in Spencer's features earlier. Not to mention, Spencer had taken the initiative to stand and approa

Lucille lightly chuckled while snaking her arms around Spencer's neck. Her thin lips moved in the next second. "No, I'm not afraid. I have you, after all."It was rare that Lucille made the first move. Because of that, Spencer felt aroused. His desire intensified as he looked at her temptingly plump limps, which he wanted nothing more than to kiss.Just as that thought flashed in his mind, he kissed her.Lucille fell into a brief daze when Spencer's cold lips touched hers, but she quickly accepted his kiss. With time, she even kissed him back.Spencer became greedier and bolder now that she'd responded to him. She was like an addictive piece of candy, intoxicating him so much that he couldn't get enough of her.Yet, he released her before he lost control over himself. Until Lucille explicitly gave him permission, he wouldn't take things too far. He hugged her tight, wishing she could merge into his body. That way, he could take her everywhere he went.After a long while, Lucill
