"Drive the car away and leave no trace behind. Oh, and keep the body. Tomorrow, I’m going to stage a big show,” Matthew ordered, staring ahead with his cold eyes.
“Yes, sir,” replied his subordinates in unison.
With his instructions given, Matthew took Lucy away. The assistant drove while Matthew and Lucy sat in the back.
Instead of heading back to the palace, they went to the house Matthew had bought in Charleston.
“Mr. Leon, not only is your wife not dead, but she even became a princess? What’s going on?”
Kent finally had the chance to voice his confusion, finding the situation miraculous.
After all, he had seen firsthand how much misery Matthew had been in the past few days. He was completely devoid of all hope.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Lucy was his whole life. Upon finding out that Lucy was not dead, Kent could not help but feel happy and curious.
However, Matthew had no intention of explaining. He simply said, “It’s a long story. Let’s just go back first.”
The car headed north, soon arriving at a cold-looking castle. While it lacked the grandeur of the royal palace, the castle still occupied a vast area.
It did not pale much in comparison as the entire castle exuded an air of understated luxury.
This was the house Matthew had invested heavily in. The intricately carved door swung open, welcoming its owner.
The car passed through the long courtyard before arriving at the castle’s main entrance. Kent opened the car door, and Matthew carried Lucy into the house.
Unlike its forbidding exterior, the interior decor of the house was warm and inviting, with furnishings arranged according to Lucy’s preferences.
Despite it being unoccupied for some time, the house remained warm and as good as new as the helpers came to clean it daily.
Matthew carried Lucy all the way up to the master bedroom on the second floor before gently tucking her into bed.
