Anning: "But Joyce..."
Thunder: "Anning, do you know Lucy?"
Anning: "Have you forgotten? When we got married in my family's castle, she painted a picture for us at the top of the tower."
Thunder: "I don't really remember what it looked like."
Anning: "She was tall and slender, with golden hair. Her eyes were dark brown, just like mine. She had a high nose and skin that was even whiter than Allen's."
Allen: "Lucy has a very standard appearance. Her eyes are similar to Anning's. She has a cool and noble temperament. You can tell it's Thunder at a glance."
Thunder: "Why would I look at her? She's Joyce's blind date."
Liao Qian: "Poor thing, she probably won't have a good life with Joyce."
Ellen: "On the contrary, if she tries, she can apply for a title from the royal family if she gives birth to Joyce's son. Once the title is granted, Joyce will be useless."
Liao Qian: "Oh, I see. No wonder Ariel was so determined to marry into the Newsport family."
Allen: "Ariel married my brother because she loved him. Although she also loved the title, I know she loved my brother. I just don't know if Lucy is willing to accept it."
Anning: "Can she refuse if she doesn't want to?"
Allen: "Sure, the Queen isn't coming today, so her nephew Gals is. Lucy can refuse if she doesn't want to."
Liao Qian: "I guess she'll agree."
Anning: "I hope she's happy. Joyce, she's too promiscuous."
Lei Ting: "An Ning, we have an old saying that goes, 'Respect the cause and effect of others.' Don't interfere too much."
Anning: "There's nothing I can do but bake some delicious snacks for her, hoping it will make her happy."
Thunder: "Okay, I'll help you prepare."
An Ning: "Okay."
At noon, Thunder and Anning were having lunch at Hertz Castle. Liao Qian opened a bottle of wine, and he could taste a bit of it. Allen was very knowledgeable; there were many wines that Anning had never heard of, and Allen could answer them fluently. As the group was talking, Joyce made a dazzling entrance, flicking a strand of hair.
W led him to the restaurant, where Joyce saw Anning and Thunder were also there, and became much more obedient.
Allen: "Joyce, why are you coming at noon?"
Joyce: "I can't wait to see Lucy, Ellen, I've prepared a shower of lilies for her."
Allen: "You like her a lot?"
Joyce: "I want her."
Allen: "Joyce..."
Joyce: "I know what you're going to say. Lucy wants a title, and I can give it to her. She can get what she wants. My title. I want her."
Allen: "You've almost squandered your title."
Joyce: "How could that be? Lucy will receive a reward from the Queen for giving birth to my child. Your nephew Hades received a special title from the Queen, and his status is even higher than mine."
Allen: "Joyce, you have to treat her well."
Joyce: "In two hours, my heart will belong to her alone."
Allen: "What do you mean?"
Joyce: "Jennifer and her sisters are watching the fountain in the castle courtyard. I'll send them away in two hours."
Allen: "Joyce, today is your blind date with Lucy."
Allen stood up angrily, while Joyce seemed indifferent. Liao Qian pulled him back down to sit, telling him not to interfere too much with Joyce, or it would cause trouble.
Liao Qian: "Joyce, what if Lucy doesn't agree?"
Joyce: "I have a lot of confidence in myself."
An Ning: "Hmph..."
Anning snorted coldly. Joyce straightened up a bit, picked up a glass of wine, and tried to clink glasses with Anning, but Anning ignored him completely.
Joyce: "Annie, what's your relationship to Alan? Do you and your husband live in the castle?"
Anning: "The Queen asked me to make some desserts to add some color to your blind date."
Joyce: "Are you a pastry chef?"
An Ning: "Yes."
Joyce nodded, looked at Liao Qian and said, "God Liao, please don't let your brother cast a curse on me, okay?"
Liao Qian: "Don't worry, as long as you don't provoke them, they won't do anything to you."
Joyce: "Great, Anning, I'm counting on you tonight. Please make a cherry cheesecake for Lucy."
Anning: "How did you know she likes cherry cheese omelet?"
Joyce: "Haha, I know her preferences perfectly well. She wouldn't have come if my queen hadn't intervened."
Anning: "Joyce, I really hope you can treat Lucy well. She's a nice girl."
Joyce: "Our relationship was mutually beneficial; he could get whatever she wanted, as long as she was willing."
Anning: "What does she want? Your title?"
Joyce: "She told the Queen she wanted my title, and that she would give it to me if she wanted it."
An Ning: "If that's how you think, there's nothing I can do."
Joyce: "She just needed it, and I just could afford it."
Thunder: "Stop talking, we're eating, you should get out!"
Thunder shouted, Joyce shrugged and walked away. Allen and Liao Qian snorted coldly, thinking that Joyce was really no good.
Thunder: "What kind of person is he if we don't listen to him?"
Liao Qian: "That's fine too. If Lucy can take it easy, it's no big deal."
Anning: "Lucy's paintings are beautiful and artistic. I like her very much. She talked to me when we last parted. She said that Thunder would love me very much and that she was envious."
Allen: "Lucy definitely won't talk to Joyce."
