Chapter 1303


    No one knew what Cooper had told Lucy.


    Perhaps he gave her some words of encouragement, as someone who had been through simr pain.


    Anyway, Lucy woke up quietly, just like that.


    After she was up, Sophia was beyond shocked. However, Lucy was extraordinarily calm. She merely


    told Sophia that she wanted to go to the washroom and that she wanted some food as she was hungry.


    She seemed to have forgotten Dana and the rainy night, looking as though she was just an injured car


    ident victim who had been reborn.


    Nevertheless, Sophia knew that she had changed.


    Lucy happily epted the treatment to recover her body. Even though she knew that she couldn’t


    reproduce anymore, she didn’t seem to care about it.

    She also didn’t ask about Dana, probably knowing that they couldn’t meet again whether thetter was


    alive or not.


    Dana could either be dead, or the Winston Family had forbidden her from meeting Lucy. Lucy was also


    clear that she wouldnd Dana in trouble if they got together.


    I’ll just treat her as if she’s dead.


    Everyone tentatively avoided speaking about Dana in front of her. In fact, they stopped talking about


    the rainy night altogether. Sophia visited her in the hospital everyday, and Michael also paid her a visit


    once every few days.


    Lying on the bed, Lucy told the visiting Michael straightforwardly, “I’m sorry about lying to you back


    then. I’d always loved Dana since I was in my teens. She was my first love. All the boyfriends I had


    throughout these years were just to cover up her existence.”


    Michael smiled and shook his head. “Back then, I dated you only because you look like my mother.”


    As they exchanged smiles, Sophia felt as though she had been cheated on. However, she knew very


    well that it was impossible for Lucy and Michael to be together again.


    Hence, she just drank the chicken soup quietly. Sophia asked their nanny back home to make plenty of


    soups—chicken soup, duck soup, mushroom soup, vegetable soup, and corn soup—to bring it over for


    Lucy. She would bring over a huge pot each time. Lucy couldn’t finish it most of the time—she could


    only finish half of it. Hence, Sophia also brought a bowl and would help her drink the other half.


    Lucy was the one recuperating, yet Sophia was the one who was putting on weight.


    At this moment, Lucy had a rosy glow on her cheeks. It was obvious that her body had been recovering


    well, and she seemed to be smiling. However, Sophia was the only person who could see the pain in


    her eyes. Every time Lucy smiled, the darkness was visible in her irises. She didn’t feel pleasure or


    happiness at all.


    Sophia found Lucy’s phone and purse, and she even gave her aptop. Lucy insisted on working while


    recuperating, even though no one knew what she had been working on, since she had already been


    fired by the Edwards Group.


    Nevertheless, everyone was sure that she was preparing for something.


    Sam also visited her often. After seeing that Lucy was making progress in her recovery, he took the


    opportunity and said, “Lucy, why don’t I arrange for you to migrate abroad? The Crimson House needs


    someone to take charge in the Europe region. I’ll let you be the person in charge there.”


    However, Lucy shook her head and smiled.


    Upon seeing that, Sam added, “You don’t like to work for me, is it? That’s fine. I can lend you some


    money for you tounch your own business abroad. You can go to some faraway ces and leave the


    Edwards Family behind.”


    Lucy still shook her head with a sarcastic smile on her face.


    After she was removed from the Edwards Group, they even froze her personal bank ount.


    This was their management style—a very traditional and authoritarian way of running their business.


    Usually, something like this was deemed a family private matter, so she couldn’t do anything about it


    even if she wanted to sue them. The entire incident was rather absurd—just because Lucy was a


    lesbian, her savings for more than a decade had been forcefully confiscated by her family.


    They even killed her lover and raped her as they liked. These were all criminal offences, yet the


    Edwards Family carried out all of these like it was just a regr day.


    To them, everything was normal.


    At this moment, Lucy had no money on her because all her private assets had been taken away by the


    Edwards Family. She got her phone and purse back just because Sophia had sent someone to secretly


    retrieve it from her house in the suburb that was guarded by the members of the Edwards Family.


    After all, quite many people from the Edwards Family had also died—they were the ones who defiled


    Lucy. It was highly probable that Jordan had already wanted them dead after they did such a thing to


    Lucy, so he didn’t care about them anyway.


    He also stopped caring about Lucy and treated her as though she was dead. However, the Edwards


    Family still sent people to patrol around her house to secretly look for her.


    That probably wasn’t Jordan’s doing.


    He only thought of her as a disgrace and wanted her to get lost. On the other hand, someone else


    wanted her to be dead, and they wouldn’t rest unless they saw her corpse.


    “Sam, I don’t need your help.”


    Lucy stood up firmly. Because she had sustained some serious injuries at herdy parts, there was a


    period of time when she had lost control of her bodily functions. She had only gotten better recently.


    Looking out the window, she thought, It’s going to rain soon—just as heavy as the rain that night.


    As the rain was reflected in her empty eyes, she uttered, “I have my own ns.”


    After hearing her words, Sam’s heart felt heavy. He finally knew her decision.


    “Lucy, are you really going to—”


    “Sam, this is my decision. I hope you don’t meddle in this,” she interrupted him.


    Sam saw determination and mes of revenge burning in her eyes.


    She already had nothing left, so the only motivation for her to stay alive was to take revenge.


    Sam’s heart was hurting for her. She could totally leave her past behind and go to a ce where no


    one knows her to start afresh. But once she’s taken this route, there’s no turning back anymore…


    Sophia still went to the hospital everyday. However, the hospital was quite far away from her house and


    herpany. Hence, she made a noble decision—to fetch Lucy back to her home to recuperate.


    After hearing about this, Sarah was dumbfounded. “You fetched your husband’s ex-girlfriend back to


    your own ce? You’re incredible!”


    Sophia also thought she was too noble, but Lucy seemed to be quite weed by her family.


    Celine, especially, had taken a liking to her. She would go to Lucy’s room to chat with her everyday.


    “Mom, this is you. This is dad, and that’s Mikey,” Celine took out their family photo and introduced


    everyone to Lucy innocently.


    “I’m not your mom.” Lucy had lost count how many times she had told Celine this.


    “Mikey said our mom has reincarnated as you.” Celine was quite stubborn in believing that Lucy was


    her mother’s reincarnation.


    Lucy remained quiet and stopped arguing with her. Indeed, she looked like Elizabeth, but there were


    many celebrity look-alikes in the entertainment industry nowadays, so it was nothing special.


    Then, Celine introduced all the kids and pets in the house to her. “This is my big baby; this is my little


    baby; this is Chrysanthemum; this is Snowball; this is Cash…”


    Lucy also conversed with her patiently.


    It’s actually quite nice to speak to Celine. She is an innocent person who has no ulterior motives,


    though she is slightly silly.


    After Sophia returned from work, she nned to check on Lucy. However, Michael suddenly had a wild


    idea to cook something for dinner because Carmen was about to return today, so he had been busy in


    the kitchen.


    “Mommy, we’re home!”


    Carmen ran into the house excitedly. She had been away to shoot the reality TV show, ‘My Uncle’s


    Babysitting Diary’. It was only today that they had finished the shoot. Apart from that, Linus also


    returned home with her while holding bags of presents and local specialities. Cooper was worried about


    the both of them going away just like that, so he specially went to the filming set to monitor the situation


    there. After all, both Linus and Carmen were his big baby and his small baby, and he was not confident


    that Linus could take good care of Carmen.


    Meanwhile, he could also have some experience in modern reality TV shows, so he could be starred


    next time around.


    Unexpectedly, when Cooper returned, two more people were standing behind him.


    Sophia looked at them in surprise. “Father?”


    Cooper replied happily, “Hey, my darling. I’m back!”


    However, Sophia walked to Theo, who was standing next to Cooper, and asked in amazement, “Father,


    why are you back?”


    Cooper was speechless upon seeing that.
