"Aren't you supposed to have dinner at home? I need to go back too."Sunny recalled Patricia's call to Leo last night, where he promised to return early.She felt a tinge of sadness. Although she and Leo were back together, she still felt insecure. Celebrating Christmas's Eve would mean another separation."Are you going home?" Leo narrowed his eyes, staring at her dangerously. "What if your stepfather introduces another suitor to you? How will you refuse him?"Sunny was surprised. "How do you know about that?""Wasn't it? I know he's introduced five suitors to you. I didn't get that wrong, did I?" Leo sneered, his face turning cold."He treats you like goods to sell. Are you still going back to his place?" Leo's face darkened, as if ready to punch someone.This was Sunny's dark secret, something she had always feared and been hurt by.If Leo hadn't investigated her, she would have kept these secrets until old age, not letting

"Grandma's right, Sunny and Leo are perfect for each other," Catherine agreed quickly.Sunny's face turned bright red. Why was everyone focusing on her?Abigail noticed Sunny's other hand hanging still and asked quietly, "Sunny, what's wrong with your hand?"Remembering the video of Sunny fighting the thugs, Catherine explained, "Her hand is injured. Sunny, are you feeling better now?"Sunny nodded. "Much better!"Patricia was shocked. "How did your hand get hurt? Was it that naughty Leo?"Sunny shook her head and explained what had happened.Patricia and Abigail listened with concern. Catherine pulled up the video, and after watching it, both Patricia and Abigail's faces showed worry."Sunny, I didn't think you had so much courage!""Did you practice martial arts when you were young?"Sunny answered all their questions. The two elders looked at her with new respect.They couldn't believe such a small and t

Three days passed in a warm haze for the Royal family—a rare stretch of uninterrupted togetherness amidst their perpetually busy lives.The family rarely gathered, as they were usually busy with work and chores. So, the time they spent together was precious.Blake and Catherine skipped elaborate vacations, opting instead to fill the estate with laughter.They built snow forts with the children, baked gingerbread cookies in the sunlit kitchen, and read bedtime stories by the crackling fireplace. For Noah and Hedwig, these simple moments became their first true childhood memories.On the third evening, as snowflakes settled like powdered sugar over the grounds, Catherine needed to discuss visiting her father abroad with Blake, but the words stuck in her throat like winter sap.Blake definitely didn't want her to go far away, but she couldn't be trapped here forever just because she was afraid of the dangers outside.That night, the snow

"You could still meet with my father if you both have time. Blake and I wouldn't mind," Catherine suggested softly."There's nothing left to say between us," Abigail replied with a light laugh, her tone final yet tinged with resignation."Thank you, Abigail." Catherine's gratitude spilled out."Alright, no more formalities. I'm content now. Rest now—you'll need energy for tomorrow's flight," Abigail said with a gentle smile.Catherine nodded and quietly left. Back in the bedroom, Blake was sitting on the sofa with a strange look. On seeing her, he got up and walked over. "What did my mom say?""Nothing much. Just reminded me about Dad's medication," Catherine replied softly."Is he ill?" Blake's gaze sharpened."Old health issues," Catherine deflected, unnerved by his sudden intensity.Blake said no more and put his arms around her. "Let's rest early. The flight will drain you.""Okay. Good night." Catherine leaned

Tasha, who used to look down on this corner of the house, had come today with a request.The musty smell of the long-unoccupied room made her uncomfortable."Sunny, don't be so cold. We don't have a deep grudge, do we?" Tasha forced a fake smile.Sunny ignored her, sitting by the chair and taking out her phone to check the news.Tasha stared at the phone, eyes gleaming with the idea of secretly finding Leo's number.But then she decided to just ask Sunny for it directly.Sunny wouldn't reject this."Sunny, do you have Leo's phone number? Can you give it to me?" Tasha asked boldly.Sunny looked up, her gaze cold. "No."Sunny, who used to lack the confidence, now felt no obligation to easily give her boyfriend's number to another woman.The atmosphere turned awkward.Tasha's face darkened at Sunny's blunt refusal."Sunny, are you just trying to spoil my fun? You eat, live, and use what's ours. Isn't it
