Ruby screamed in pain and got up from the ground, but she was relieved in her heart. She didn't like Mr. Johnson and didn't want to have a physical deal with him.

She limped to the bedside and took out the pinhole camera. "Send these photos to Lucy. My task should be completed... right?"

She really didn't want to stay here any longer. Every day she stayed with Mr. Johnson, she felt that she would live ten years less!

...

Lucy opened his eyes until two o'clock in the morning. Only then did he feel a little sleepy. However, he finally fell asleep, and she was still dreaming.

In her dream, she returned to the day when she first met Arthur eight years ago. But this time, Elyse came back early and was famous for being a handsome man and a pretty woman in the school with Arthur.

She hid in the grass secretly, watching them kiss sweetly, and secretly do something shameful in a place where the crowd couldn't see.

But all of a sudden, she became a person rolling on the grass with Arthur. He kissed her earlobe and whispered softly, "Elyse, I love you!"

She cursed Arthur and tried her best to push him away, but she couldn't get rid of him.

Elyse leaned into her ear and smiled gently and proudly. "You can only be my substitute for the rest of your life. You won't be able to escape, hahaha..."

"!!!"

Lucy sat up and wiped away the cold sweat on his head. His heart was still beating rapidly, as if it was going to jump out of his chest.

She picked up her phone and took a look. It was already 11 o'clock in the morning.

"You... have woken up?" Aunty Julianne came in with a happy face. "The young master is here. He has been waiting for you for a few hours."

When Lucy heard this, his absent-minded eyes suddenly erupted with astonishing radiance. "Alright, I'll go right now!"

After Aunty Julianne went out, she got out of bed and wanted to find an underwear to change into, only to find that she didn't have any clothes to change into. Moreover, she had been wearing pajamas all the time yesterday. Except for one set of pajamas, all the other clothes were in her room.

"Should I go to see Caden in my pajamas?"

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

Ruby pushed the door open and came in with a sweet smile on her face. "Ms. Morgan, I brought you your clothes. Oh, I like the clothes you wore the day before yesterday very much." She pointed at the clothes on her body and said, "I'll borrow them for you. I'll return them to you after you wear them."

"You don't have to pay me back. I think it's dirty." Lucy took the clothes. "Please go out. I want to change clothes."

"Are you unhappy that I'm wearing your clothes? Then I'll take them off and return them to you." Ruby was about to take off her clothes.

Lucy was just about to say that she didn't need to take it off when she saw that she had already taken off her coat. The photo was scattered all over the floor. Her ambiguous posture made people blush and their hearts beat faster.

Lucy's gaze swept over those photos. His fist was tightly clenched, and his face was completely drained of color.

The visual impact was far greater than the visual impact. She only felt that a bomb had thrown into her brain and made her mind a mess!

"What Arthur said was that it was more exciting to take photos during the exhibition." Ruby picked up the photos in a panic and said shyly and guiltily, "If you are in a bad mood after seeing these photos, I will apologize to you!"

"Don't you just want me to see it?" Lucy gave her a cold look. She felt humiliated to be a substitute for someone like this!

Ruby wanted to say more, but Lucy ignored her and went straight into the bathroom with her clothes. She thought that it would be a waste of her saliva to play with Elyse!

...

When Lucy changed her clothes and went downstairs, Ruby was teasing the little fellow, while the little fellow looked like she was looking at an idiot.

"Mommy!" Seeing her coming downstairs, the little fellow quickly threw herself into her arms and kissed her on the face. "You've lost weight. Do you miss me?"

"You guessed it right away. It's no fun!" As soon as Lucy saw her, all of his bad mood was thrown to the back of his head.

"Who makes me smart?" Caden proudly raised her eyebrows and took out a box of exquisite dessert. "Eat something sweet every day, and you're in a good mood!"

"Thank you!" Lucy accepted the gift and gave him a kiss on his face. His son's EQ was so high that he inherited her good genes!

Caden frowned unhappily, and her hand was still in front of her. "Mommy!"

"Hmm?"

"Where's my new year's gift?"

Ruby, who had been sitting next to him, quickly said, "Mihn, don't blame your mommy for not preparing a gift for you. She did something wrong. Arthur didn't allow her to go out, and she didn't have a chance to prepare a gift for you."

Lucy tilted his head and glanced at Ruby. His eyes were filled with disgust. There was no need to get a child involved in a dispute between adults!

Caden's face immediately darkened. She looked up and asked Lucy, "Mommy, did Daddy not allow you to go out?"

"Yes, it's been a few days." Ruby answered before Lucy could. "Your mommy wanted to escape by plane and eloped with another uncle. Your dad was so angry that he didn't let her go out."

"Grandma, you are so old, haven't you learned how to write the word 'educated'?" Caden stared at her fiercely. She hated this woman who looked exactly like her mommy!

Ruby subconsciously took out her phone and took a look at her face. Did she look so old?
