Matthew caressed Lyanna's tiny face. His actions were filled with affection, but he still pried her hand off him, one finger at a time. "Be good, Lyanna. Your mother can celebrate your birthday with you."I suppressed the anger boiling in my heart as I picked up the ring from the floor. I kept my tone as calm as possible when I said, "Michael, Matthew made a promise to Lyanna before he died. He promised to celebrate her birthday with her."Can you pretend to be her father and celebrate her fifth birthday with her? You can think of it as carrying out Matthew's final wish, or perhaps you can do it for poor Lyanna's sake."Felicia entered the living room with a disgruntled expression. "Luna, I feel heartbroken that you lost your husband, and that Lyanna lost her father, but you shouldn't try to steal my man right in front of me and Elias."Matthew's brows knitted together tightly. He looked as if he wanted to reject my request, but after meeting my calm gaze, he guiltily averted his g

The atmosphere in the house was so tense that it could be cut with a knife. I kept my gaze pinned on Matthew, but he refused to make eye contact with me. He just stood among the rest. Although he felt unbearably guilty, he didn't dare admit who he really was.The clock chimed, signalling that it was midnight.Lyanna rubbed the tears from her eyes. She smiled at Matthew and said, "It's okay. Everything's okay. Thank you, Uncle Michael. "The cake may be ruined, but I can still make a wish. I wish for Uncle Michael to be able to live the life that he wants from now on. I wish for Uncle Michael to be happy every day, and I also wish for Mommy to be happy every day."I lowered my head, unable to believe what I was hearing. Even though Matthew had faked his death, Lyanna had recognized that he was her actual father, which was why she continued to call him "Daddy". But for the first time since his "death", she changed the way she addressed him."Lyanna…"Surprise was written all over M

I was surprised by Jasper's acting. He had planned everything accordingly, like a professional. Playing along with him, I nodded and said, "Yes."He knelt and addressed Lyanna next, asking, "Lyanna, can I be your new daddy?"Lyanna kept her eyes trained on her toes. She asked, "Will you celebrate my birthdays with me?""Of course. Your mother and I will celebrate all your birthdays with you from now on," Jasper answered gently.Our wedding plans proceeded smoothly after Jasper's proposal. I studied the wedding dress and the custom-made wedding rings. Confusion laced my tone when I asked, "Jasper, do you make such thorough preparations every time someone asks you for a favor?"His expression suddenly turned serious when he turned to face me. "Actually, my feelings for you are genuine. Luna, can you please give me a chance?"My face turned a vibrant shade of red, though I couldn't be sure if it was from the sun setting in the distance or for some other reason.The sun shone bright

"Luna, why are you asking these questions?" Felicia asked. "Don't tell me that you suspect that I'm involved in Michael's death?"Wanting to ruin Lorenzo Corporation is one thing, but now you also want to drag my name through the mud by pinning these baseless accusations on me?"You hate me because you're jealous that your own husband wants to stay by my side to take care of me. You want to destroy my reputation with these accusations, don't you?"Matthew wore a displeased expression as he stepped in front of Felicia and shielded her from my line of sight. He turned toward me and said, "Luna, everything is my fault. The one who is most upset because of Michael's passing is Felicia. How could you come up with such despicable accusations?"I threw down the documents I had received a few days ago onto the desk."I noticed that you were acting strangely on the day of my wedding.
