The sudden news made Brett feel like the ground had shifted beneath his feet, unraveling his reality instantly. He was completely caught off guard.He covered his face in frustration, and his heart was in disarray. He couldn't make a decision. Lucy noticed his frustration and patted his shoulder.She sighed and comforted, "Brett, I know this matter came too suddenly. It must be difficult for you to accept it."Lucy remembered how she reacted when she found out Kate was Tobias' daughter. It was no different from how Brett was now.Lucy felt a tinge of pain in her heart. She said, "I was like this when I received shocking news too. When I found out about it, I cried for a long time. I took two days to calm myself down. Now, I've started to handle the matter better."Lucy suggested, "You should take some time off to cool down, Brett. You can decide what to do with Maya once you've collected yourself. Okay?"Brett knew Lucy was consoling him. He nodded and said gruffly, "Okay. Give

Lucy fell into a deep slumber. She wouldn't have woken up if Lisa didn't enter her room to call for her.Lisa said with concern, "Lulu, are you exhausted? You've slept the whole afternoon. How are you going to sleep tonight?"Lucy's voice was fragile, barely carrying any strength. "I'm okay, Mom. I think I've caught a cold. I feel weak and tired."Lisa said, "I've asked someone to get some medication for your cold. You should come and have dinner. Once you have food, you can sleep after taking the medication."Lucy thought about it and nodded. "Okay."Lucy held Lisa's hand and said gently, "Mom, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll make dinner for you."Lisa held her hand and said, "You have a cold now. I couldn't bear to let you make dinner. I'll ask the helper to prepare our meal. Why don't you watch TV with me in the living room?""Okay."Lucy and Lisa sat on the sofa in the living room while the helper prepared their dinner in the kitchen. The current trending family drama

Millie cooperated with the hospital staff and allowed them to get a blood sample from Kate again. Lucy passed Tobias' blood sample to the doctor. When everything was done, it was slightly past 9:00 pm."Please return to collect the DNA report in ten days," the doctor said.Lucy looked at Millie, who looked down. Lucy said, "Thank you for the trouble, Ms. Robertson. I'll ask Avery to send you home."As Lucy spoke, they arrived at the entrance of the hospital. Avery was waiting for them by the car.He opened the car door. "After you."Millie felt awkward. "It's okay. We can call a cab. There's no need to trouble you, Mrs. Ripley."Lucy didn't insist and said, "Sure." Then, she got into the car, and Avery drove away.As Lucy left, Millie stared at her car blankly. Kate remarked, "Mom, Mrs. Ripley isn't as fond of me anymore since everyone knows I am Mr. Ripley's daughter."Millie rubbed Kate's head and smiled wryly. "Let's go."Who would treat an illegitimate child well? Lucy did

Hannah Lane?When Tobias heard her name, he instinctively looked at Hannah. Images of Anna surfaced in his mind.However, Anna and Hannah looked nothing alike.After observing her through the rearview mirror, Tobias realized how similar Hannah looked compared to Lucy. If he looked closer, she looked like Lucy's long-lost sister.Tobias frowned, feeling unsettled by Hannah's sudden appearance.However, he contemplated longer. Why would Hannah, a stranger, be unsettling for him? He must have been overthinking it.Tobias drove Hannah to the hospital.After the doctor checked on her, he said, "There is a fracture on the right leg that needs to be cast. We'll remove the cast in a month and check on the condition of the fracture."Hannah said, "Thank you, doctor."After the doctor left, Hannah said, "Sir, you must take full responsibility for the hospital fees. Plus, you need to compensate for the mental distress you've caused me."Tobias was annoyed and said, "You can contact my l

They arrived at Larkhaven after a day's drive. Then, they spent another half of the day hiking before they arrived at Benedict's house. He was Lucy's mentor.Misty clouds shrouded the mountains. A house sat among the trees like a land one could only see in fairytales. A light floral fragrance permeated the air, bringing a sense of joy to everyone."Mr. Jones!" Lucy shouted. Benedict, who was watering his flowers in his garden, heard her voice and realized Lucy was standing at the entrance of his home with three other people."Lucy!" Benedict greeted her with joy.
