"What happened to you, Bailey?" Lucille asked.Bailey tutted. "It's nothing. I just twisted my ankle. Anyway, when I invited Mr. Fuller to helm the filming for 'The Palace', I heard that Moonswish Films had also asked him to direct something else. "Mr. Fuller was more interested in our script, though, so he ultimately chose us. Not long after that, Moonswish Films hired Anson Daley for their film, which is also a period production. "Now that you mention it, I do think certain aspects are quite coincidental. I heard that they chose to commence filming on the same day we did. There's also been some arguments between both productions.""What arguments?" Lucille asked. She'd never paid attention to Luminosity Films since handing it over to Bailey, so she didn't keep an eye out for these things.Bailey said, "Oh, just some discussion on which film will be better when they air. Mr. Fuller and Mr. Daley are both renowned directors; it's natural for people to compare them. Most people a

It was the 25th that day—the monthly family gathering at Layton Manor.After struggling for a few seconds, Lucille got up. Spencer was thoughtful enough to take out the clothes she needed to change into.Although the heater in the house was turned on, she still felt cold.It was already past 10:00 am when Lucille finished washing up and ate her breakfast.The journey from Sparrow Residence to Layton Manor took around an hour. They would reach by noon.Seth had driven off to Layton Manor on his own, so he arrived earlier than them. As soon as he got there, Lila pulled him aside and bombarded him with questions."All is good. Everything is good." Seth ate the fruits prepared by the maid while giving perfunctory responses to Lila's questions.Lila slapped his back hard. She glared at him and said coldly, "Come on, be serious."The moment Seth saw Lila's cold expression, he instinctively stood up straight. He wasn't afraid of anything except her cold expression. "Mom, I've only

At JM Corporation, Mack filled Spencer in on everything from the investigation. After a while, Mack asked, "Should we interfere in Mrs. Layton's affairs?"Spencer's expression hardened, and he remained silent. Since the incident, Lucille had only asked him some questions to clear her doubts last night. She hadn't said anything else or asked for his help.Spencer knew her well; she liked to handle things on her own, and she did have the capability to take care of it.He didn't have much to ask from her, nor did he try to hold her back. He just wanted to keep her safe.There was a brief moment of silence in the office before Spencer pursed his lips and said, "No." Then, he added, "Depends on the situation. Step in if necessary."Mack nodded and said, "Yes, sir."After Mack left, Seamus came in. The latter was holding a beautiful book."Sir, this is the wedding photoshoot schedule. It's on December 11th." Seamus handed the book to Spencer.Lately, Seamus had been busy helping Spen

As Seth spoke, he suddenly changed the topic. "Lucille, I have something to discuss with you."Lucille glanced sideways and gently hummed in acknowledgment. After that, she saw him looking at the doorway cautiously, as if he wanted to discuss something secretly and was afraid of being caught red-handed.He leaned in slightly and said, "Could you lend me 50 million dollars?"Lucille was at a loss for words. After a brief moment of silence, she took out her phone and said, "Give me your account number."Seth was slightly stunned. He hadn't expected Lucille to agree readily. He was overwhelmed by her unexpected behavior."I'll text you." Then, he took out his phone and quickly tapped a few times on WhatsApp.A minute later, his phone dinged. He glanced at the bank's notification. He'd received 50 million dollars.Lucille's swift actions left him dumbfounded.Seth pouted and asked, "Aren't you going to ask me what I'm going to do with the money?" Lucille put down her phone. With

Spencer, who sat across Ethan, turned to look in his direction. It was indeed Lucille.It reminded Spencer about his conversation with Lucille on the phone an hour ago. She'd told him that she couldn't accompany him for lunch and that he needed to figure it out on his own because she had a meeting to attend.Spencer stared at the familiar figure and narrowed his eyes. This was what she meant by meeting? Meeting someone at a Marvonian restaurant? What a liar! Was it necessary for her to keep it a secret when she was just having a meal with a woman?Seated across from Spencer, Ethan and Zachary could clearly sense that something was off about him.It dawned on them why Spencer had decided to join them for lunch out of the blue.Ethan cocked his eyebrow and asked, "Spence, did Luce ditch you? Is that why you decided to join us for lunch?" Ever since Spencer had gotten married, he'd never taken the initiative to ask them out for a meal.Spencer retracted his gaze and looked at Etha
