Tobias reviewed the document and called Finn using the internal line. "I've reviewed the document. I have no objections. Please arrange a time with these four business owners to sign the agreement.""Okay, Mr. Ripley."Since Finn had fallen for Joaquin's sham in Amestria, he was meticulous after receiving Tobias' warning.Finn made a call. "Avery, I have a task for you.""Sure, Mr. Carter."Finn said, "There are four CEOs. Send someone to keep a close watch on their every move. If possible, find a way to tap into their communications.""You can leave this to me!"Finn and Avery were Tobias' right-hand men. He couldn't lose either of them.At this moment, Joaquin, who was being monitored, thought he had everything under control. A smug smirk appeared on his face. Little did he know that he'd underestimated Ripley Group's resources. A more thorough investigation had been quietly underway for some time.…Lucy and Brett returned to the wooden house the next day. After breakfas

Lucy looked at the bracelet. It was made of high-quality emerald with vivid color hues and minimal inclusions. It looked valuable.Tobias could sense Lucy's nervousness. He gently held her hand, silently giving her strength."Lucy, I want to give this emerald bracelet to you with everyone here to witness this moment." Agatha continued, "Once your children grow up and find their love, you can pass this emerald bracelet to your future daughter-in-law.""Grandma…" Lucy felt a wave of emotion wash over her. Something stirred within her heart, but she couldn't find the words to express how she felt.Agatha gently held Lucy's hand and put the emerald bracelet on Lucy's hand, saying, "Lucy, take good care of this."Lucy said, "Thank you for trusting me, Grandma. I will take good care of it. It's so important. I'll keep it safe until the day I die!"When Tobias heard her statement, he gently tapped her lips and complained, "Please, watch your words. Don't say something so negative!"Tob

After Tobias had handled this matter, he remembered he'd promised to accompany Lucy for her check-up. He said, "Finn, postpone the meetings for the rest of the day. I have something to attend to and won't be in the office. Please call me for any urgent matters."After ensuring work matters were in order, Tobias drove home.When he'd left, it was 9:30 am. Lucy had just woken up. She stretched lazily and changed her clothes. Just as she finished, Tobias entered the master bedroom.Lucy was shocked and asked, "Darling, why are you back so early?"Tobias said, "I promised to accompany you to your prenatal check-up."He was eager to head home after handling his important work matter. This was his first time accompanying her to a prenatal check-up since she'd become pregnant, and it meant a lot to him.Lucy wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his cheek. "I heard you went to work this morning, so I thought you forgot," she said."Babe, I will never forget my promises to you

Sienna was wheeled into the delivery room while Lucy and Tobias stayed outside. Lucy called Shaun, only to hear the automated response. "The number you have dialed is unavailable."Tobias asked, "Is he still not picking up?"Lucy shook her head. "I've left Shaun many missed calls. I assume he hasn't gotten off the plane yet."Tobias frowned and said in displeasure, "What is the matter with Shaun? He put so much effort into getting his wife back. Now, he isn't even here while she's about to have her baby. He's so irresponsible!"Lucy thought Shaun was a bastard too, but they had no right to meddle in their business. She only hoped Sienna's delivery went well. Suddenly, a shriek came from the delivery room. "Ah! It hurts!"Tobias' head tingled at the sound of the shriek. A doctor left the delivery room, so Lucy asked her, "Doctor, how is my friend? Why is she screaming?"The doctor said, "She is fully dilated now. The baby is coming out. It's just a shriek of pain."Then, the do

Tobias and Lucy returned to the master bedroom. After staying in each other's embrace for a while, Tobias told the babies a story. Then, Lucy fell asleep in his arms.Tobias looked at how gentle she looked as she slept soundly. He kissed her forehead and murmured, "I love you, babe." He could never express how he truly felt; he could only say it when Lucy wasn't conscious enough to hear him. They cuddled and slept until 3:00 pm. Tobias held Lucy's hand and went to the garden. After afternoon tea with Howard and Agatha, they went to the hospital.Agatha stayed silent the entire journey as if something was bothering her. Howard noticed she was acting off, so he held her hand, silently comforting her.Soon, they arrived at the hospital. They'd made an appointment and arrived on time. Howard accompanied Agatha as she went through a series of medical tests. Tobias was beside them.When Tobias saw that Agatha had been sent into the endoscopy room, he asked, "Grandma, aren't you sup
