Vessara watched from the side, unable to stop herself from looking puzzled.Why was Lucas so different from the person she remembered after coming back this time?Vessara couldn't figure it out. In the end, she simply stopped thinking about it and continued watching Lucas, slightly lost in thought.After a few seconds, she shifted her attention to Isabella, who had just come downstairs.“You're all here. I thought I'd come down too early.”Isabella wore a faint smile as her gaze swept over her children. Then, confusion appeared in her eyes.“That's strange. Why is only one of you back? Where's your second brother?”She looked around but couldn't find Lucius anywhere, so she voiced her confusion.Lucas frowned as if only now realizing something was wrong.“Yeah, why isn't he back? Didn't he say he'd be coming home today? So I'm the only sucker who actually made it back?”“W

Perhaps Alexander's words had been a little too serious. For a moment, Emilia couldn't find anything to say in response, so she could only lower her head, press her lips together, and remain silent.After a few seconds, Isabella couldn't bear to watch anymore. She let out a soft sigh, reached over and gently patted Emilia twice, comforting her."All right, Emilia. Your father is only doing this for your own good. Besides, has there ever been anything you wanted at home that we didn't give you?""I understand, Mom. I shouldn't have been so willful."Emilia kept her head lowered and said nothing more.The atmosphere at the dinner table seemed to settle into an awkward stalemate. However, when Lucian's gaze happened to fall on Emilia, he paused for a few seconds.For some reason, he couldn't shake the feeling that there was something strange about Emilia's behavior.But since Emilia hadn't said anything else, he naturally wasn't going to bring it up now and ruin everyone's mood."Little

Downstairs, the living room was brightly lit.As Emilia reached the bottom of the stairs, she spotted Lucian sitting on the sofa.The Barclay family had always been blessed with good looks. Nearly every one of their children was strikingly attractive.Unlike them, Emilia had always felt out of place.She had known for a long time that she was adopted.At the thought, her hands curled into fists.“When did you come down?” Lucian's voice interrupted her thoughts.Emilia quickly composed herself and forced a smile.“I saw the lights were still on and came down to see if anyone was here. Then I happened to see you.”“Oh.”Lucian was still distracted by what his father had said during dinner and barely noticed the determination in Emilia's eyes.“It's getting late. You should get some rest, Brother.”After saying that, Emilia headed toward the kitchen.Lucian responded absentmindedly.A few minutes later, Emilia returned with a glass in her hand.Lucian was still sitting on the sofa, looki

Vessara could barely remember how she'd even made it to this place. When she saw the door to the room left deliberately ajar, the first feeling that rose in her heart was panic.She didn't know what she could possibly do to prepare herself for whatever she might find inside.Vessara slowly closed her eyes and took a deep breath, doing her best to steady her emotions. Only then did she gather her courage and push the door open.The scene inside was somewhat different from what she'd imagined. There was only Lucian lying on the bed, and no one else in the room. The lingering scent in the air, however, made it easy enough to imagine what had happened moments ago.Vessara clenched her fingers, forcing herself to regain her composure before walking over to Lucian."Brother, wake up."She called out several times, but Lucian didn't react at all.At that moment, Vessara's heart sank completely.She bit down hard on her lower lip, stru

After finally managing to reassure himself, Lucian looked up at Vessara."Please keep what happened tonight a secret."“What else am I supposed to do? Announce that the eldest son of the Barclay family was drugged by his own adopted sister and dragged into a huge scandal?”Vessara rolled her eyes, her tone completely devoid of sympathy.Knowing he was in the wrong, Lucian sat quietly to the side without saying another word.There was really nothing else to discuss. Vessara pushed open the door and left, but before she went, she didn't forget to call back,"Remember, when you go home tomorrow, you'd better think about what you're going to do about Emilia."With that, Vessara walked away.The door closed behind her, and even the last sliver of light disappeared.Lucian felt as though he'd suddenly been plunged into the bottom of the sea, completely sealed off from the outside world, with no one left to care abo
