Semua Bab A Heartwarming Marriage: Bab 521 - Bab 530

Everyone fell silent. Spencer sighed. "The food you want to eat is too heavy for you. They're not good for your recovery." James had been about to scold Spencer for mistreating Lucille. But after hearing that it would be bad for her recovery, he instead said, "Lucy, how about we listen to what the brat said and eat something light for now? Once you recover, I'll have our chef cook you something nice every day." Seth quickly added, "Oh, Grandpa, who needs our family's chef when we have one right here? I'm sure Lucy prefers having Spence cook for her more than the chef!" James agreed. "Yes, that's right! Once you've recovered, I'll have Spencer cook whatever you want to eat every day. And tell me if he doesn't cook for you. I've got your back and will scold him!" The chef, Spencer, was speechless. James felt like he had missed something. He mulled over it for a moment before he remembered what it was. "Oh, yeah, Lucy," James said. "When he cooks you something nice, please t

On the eve of Connection Day, a local holiday where families gathered to celebrate their bonds and support each other through monetary gestures, Lucille was on bed rest, receiving her IV fluids.Although she hadn't been one to look forward to a lively holiday like this one, when she would usually just have dinner with Marie and spend the rest of the occasion alone, she knew she couldn't spend a minute more in the hospital.It was dreadful and boring, and her intense desire to move around made her depressed yet frustrated. As she peered at the falling snow outside the window, she yearned to be a bird, soaring freely in the wintry sky.Spencer returned to the ward briefly after he left. It was cold and snowing outside, and he felt the chill seep into his bones. Once he entered the room, he removed his jacket and waited for his body to warm up before approaching Lucille.He had long noticed Lucille's forlornness the moment he'd stepped in."What's wrong?" He stroked her hair. "Do you

"How likeable was she?" Ian continued asking."How likeable…" Nate murmured and tried to recall. "Well, both guys and girls adored her. She had a gazillion of admirers back then, but—""But what?" Ian turned his head slightly to stare at him."She rejected all their advances, saying she was already committed to someone and that she'd only marry that person."Ian's heart sank. Eunice had had someone in mind back then. Who was it?"Who was he?""I don't know. You can ask Bailey about that. That brat has more information than I do." Nate passed the baton to his sister. In the meantime, Bailey secretly went to collect something from Creekside Villas and left. By the time she arrived at Moore Manor, it was 6:00 pm.She grabbed the exquisite bag from her passenger seat and dashed straight to Marcus' study, ignoring Ian on the couch.Noticing her sneaky and frantic actions, Ian narrowed his eyes and caught a detail on the bag she was holding. The illustration and signature on the ba

Since Spencer would reimburse the money for Lucille, she had a fun time sending everyone cash gifts that year. Similarly, those who received her generous gifts were shocked and wondered whether her account had been hacked.Lying idly on the couch, Corey heard a notification ring from his phone and received a message, noting that an amount had been transferred to his bank account. When he expanded the message, he cussed out loud by instinct."Am I hallucinating?" Corey mumbled, then counted the number of zeros in the amount. After doing so, he cursed in his head again, "The fuck? Did that brat finally come to her senses? Or was her account hacked?"As such, he opened WhatsApp, tapped into his chat with "Lucy the Brat", and gave her a call. However, it was declined after a beep. He went to his contact list and called her number, but the result was the same.Left with no choice, he sent her a voice message. "Hey, brat. Has your bank account been hacked?"After a while, he received a

No matter how unbearable Marcus' words were, Ian only reacted with a slight frown at most and nothing more. He didn't refute his father and simply ate his food in silence.Bailey couldn't help but admire Ian's patience and resilience. For a moment, she pitied him for looking so lonely.In the meantime, the reunion dinner atmosphere was vastly different at Layton Manor. Although it wasn't a crowded gathering, everyone wore a smile on their faces.The manor was appropriately decorated with festive lights and decoration. It had been a while since Lucille celebrated such a festive holiday. All of that was thanks to Spencer.Spencer had informed his family in advance regarding Lucille's return. As such, Lila had told the chefs to prepare milder food. When Lucille saw the table of dishes, she instantly understood Lila's intentions.Never in her wildest dreams would she have expected to experience familial love again, especially from the Laytons. She felt loved and appreciated; it was a
