Seth shrugged and said, "I know my place, and I know I should give up on something that doesn't belong to me while I have the chance. Otherwise, whatever headaches come from these problems will be the death of me. I wouldn't want a headache to lead to my premature death."Tucker stiffened. What the hell was that supposed to mean? Seth sounded like he was talking about himself, but he was actually reminding those with ulterior motives not to covet things that weren't meant to be theirs.He was telling them to know their places and understand that they couldn't meddle with certain people and things. Otherwise, they would meet their end without even realizing how it had happened.James took a sip of his drink, looking like whatever was happening had nothing to do with him. Eric and Lila did the same.Suddenly, Seth's eyes lit up. "Spencer, Lucille."Everyone was taken aback. Who was Lucille? Spencer's name was familiar to all, but Lucille…At that moment, they saw Spencer enter th

Lucille's curiosity was piqued. "Your last name is Young?"Scarlett explained, "Yeah. My mother is a Layton."Lucille understood now. She didn't know much about the younger generation of the Layton family and could only remember vaguely. "I'm Lucille Johnson.""Can I call you Lucy, then?" Scarlett was the type to quickly warm up to others.Lucille nodded, not feeling put out by Scarlett's enthusiasm. Scarlett looked naïve, and her gaze was guileless. It looked like Myra had protected and taught her well—she didn't have a scheming bone in her body, which Lucille would've expected from anyone linked to the Layton family.At that moment, a man's frivolous voice rang out. "Hey there, gorgeous. You've got some tricks up your sleeve, don't you? Look at how you've won Spencer's heart."Lucille and Scarlett turned to look at Yves. The former's gaze was cold and aloof, and she looked away after a glance.Yves was upset at being ignored. He wasn't as outstanding or renowned as Spencer, bu

Lucille glanced at Yves and said coolly, "You don't know how anything will turn out if you don't try it, right? Or are you afraid to take me up on this bet?"Yves couldn't stand being challenged, especially by women who'd caught his eye. "Fine, then. I'll play along with you."His words and actions made it clear he didn't think Lucille stood a chance against him, and it was as if he already thought of her as his. His gaze grew even more lecherous.Kent's heart sank when he heard that Lucille and Yves were going to spar. He wondered whether it'd be better for him to call an ambulance for Yves beforehand.Lucille wore an evening gown, which made it hard for her to move around. Despite that, she'd still made such a ridiculous bet with Yves. Scarlett approached her and said, "You're wearing an evening gown, Lucy. It's not convenient for you to move. How about we just forget about this?"This was her third time expressing her concern for Lucille, and the latter couldn't help finding he

"Ha! Who knows whether the little bitch is the one who tried to seduce Yves? Look at that slutty, vixen-like face of hers! It's obvious she came here to seduce one of the Layton men," Fiona spat. "She thinks too highly of herself if she thinks she's worthy of joining this family!"She made Lucille out to be a promiscuous woman who'd come to Layton Manor to seduce anyone she could.Lucille stoically watched things play out from beginning to end. Then, she looked at Fiona lazily and snorted. "It's not up to you to decide whether or not I'm a slut, Madam Cooper."She smirked and continued, "At least I came here through proper means, unlike you. I didn't start as anyone's mistress."Fiona was stunned into silence. Everyone else couldn't believe Lucille had publicly shamed Fiona like that.Fiona was Sylvester's third wife, and she'd been his mistress in the past. Rumor had it that his first wife had passed away and that he'd divorced his second wife. But one thing was for sure—Fiona

"Why would someone who has my heart need to seduce your son?" A man's icy and ruthless voice rang out.Spencer was back. He stood out amongst the crowd, making everyone fade into the background. His presence was daunting, and everyone couldn't help feeling fearful of him.Lila automatically stepped aside to make way for him when she saw him. He approached Lucille, his expression frosty. He wrapped an arm around her waist as everyone watched. Then, he lowered his head to look at her gently.He said, "I'm sorry I was away for so long. I had to attend to something."She smiled. "It's fine. You didn't miss anything."Spencer's apology sent shockwaves through the crowd. He was the arrogant head of the Layton family and was infamous for being ruthless. He was the king of the world. When had he ever been so humble with anyone? And his gentle tone was oddly scary…The situation was getting weirder by the second. Some people started praying for Yves; it looked like he'd offended someone h
