Rabelle: "Are you really my dad?"
Joyce: "Yeah, you see, you have red hair, and Dad has red hair too. You have blue eyes, and Dad has blue eyes too."
Rabelle: "Where were you when Mom had a fever?"
Joyce: "I..."
Rabelle: "Where were you when I was being called a bastard?"
Joyce: "I..."
Rabelle: "I don't want my dad, I want my mom, mom, let's go home."
Rabelle jumped into Joyce's arms and wiped away Lucy's tears.
Rabelle: "Mom, let's go home."
Lucy: "Go home."
Joyce: "No, no, Lucy, Rabelle, don't leave me, don't go...no..."
Joyce tried to stop Lucy, but Rabelle pried his hand off Lucy's shoulder. Joyce froze, stunned. Lucy, with Rabelle in her arms, had already walked away without looking back.
Joyce chased after them to the door, but Rabelle closed the car window and wouldn't open it no matter how much Joyce pounded on it. The driver sped off, taking Rabelle and Lucy with him. Joyce got in his car to chase after them, but Allen, along with Liao Qian and Lei Ting Anning, were worried and also followed.
Joyce was driving fast and soon caught up with Lucy's car, shouting. Lucy looked out the window at Joyce speeding by, while Rabelle stubbornly pulled the curtains shut.
Rabelle: "Mom, is he really my dad?"
Lucy: "Yes, he is your father."
Rabelle: "Mom, do you still love him?"
Lucy: "Love."
Rabelle: "What about Mom's other lover?"
Lucy: "Mom can't love her anymore. Mom and your dad betrayed her first."
Rabelle: "Does Daddy love her?"
Lucy: "Maybe you loved her, Rabelle, don't you want to live with your father?"
Rabelle: "My father is a stranger to me. Although my mother often draws his portrait, he is still a stranger to me when I see him."
Lucy: "It's all my fault, Mommy. I hid from your father for so many years with you."
Rabelle: "Has Dad been looking for us?"
Lucy: "Yes, he's been looking for me. Your father doesn't know you exist. I'm sorry, baby, Mommy was too selfish."
Rabelle: "Mom, Dad's eyes are blue, just like mine. He's the second person I've ever met with blue eyes."
As soon as Rabelle finished speaking, Lucy heard two very dull "duang duang" sounds. Immediately afterward, the driver slammed on the brakes. Lucy, holding Rabelle, leaned forward to the extreme. The car stopped. Lucy had a bad feeling. She opened the car door and saw that Joyce's car in front of her was completely wrecked.
Lucy: "No...don't..."
Lucy ran over, and Joyce, lying on the airbag, was in grave danger as thick smoke billowed from the bottom of the car.
Lucy: "No, no, Joyce, Joyce..."
Thunder and Allen arrived, and Thunder and several bodyguards immediately ran over. Joyce's car airbags had all deployed. Thunder kicked open the car window, and the dagger Anning had given him came in handy. Thunder used the dagger to cut the seatbelt, and by then Joyce's car was already on fire.
Anning ran over, and Leiting had already pulled Joyce out. Leiting keenly smelled the gasoline leak. The bodyguard carried Joyce on his back, and Leiting carried Anning and ran quickly. Fortunately, they reached a safe area and the fire truck arrived and put out the fire. There was no explosion, and Joyce did not die, but she was knocked unconscious by the impact.
Lucy: "Joyce...Joyce, wake up..."
Lucy shook Joyce, and Joyce gradually woke up. Lucy and Rabelle were in front of him.
Joyce: "Lucy, Rabelle..."
Lucy: "Waaah..."
Lucy hugged Joyce and cried, and Joyce patted her back.
Allen: "That's too dangerous. Did you go 200 mph?"
Liao Qian: "Are you out of your mind? Look at the state of your car!"
Joyce: "With Liao Shen's magic, I won't die."
Liao Qian: "Haha, it really is thanks to me. I cast a peace spell on you for a month, hahaha..."
Anning: "Let's hurry back to the castle and let Allen's family doctor take a look at you."
Everyone returned to the castle, and some guests left. In the drawing room of Hertz Castle, Allen's family doctor came to examine Joyce.
Allen: "Is he alright?"
Family doctor: "It's nothing, just emotional fluctuations caused by extreme joy or sorrow, it's nothing."
Liao Qian: "That's good. W, tell the kitchen to make a tranquilizer soup."
W: "Okay."
Lucy, who had survived the ordeal, cried while clutching Joyce's hand, with Rabelle watching from the side.
Lucy: "How could you do this? If something really happens to you, Rabelle will be without a father."
Joyce: "No, Rabelle, let Daddy hug you."
Rabelle: "Daddy."
Joyce: "Yes, call him Dad."
At this moment, Joyce possessed his most precious possession, finally free from the need to collect Stands to satisfy himself, and was not only safe but also received an unexpected surprise.
Joyce: "Rabelle, go home with your father. You are your father's daughter, of royal blood. No one will dare to bully you from now on."
Rabelle: "Will I live in the castle?"
Joyce: "Yes, you are the eldest daughter of Marquis Joyce and Lady Lucy, a noblewoman with the royal status of Northern Ireland. Come on, Lucy, let's go home."
Allen: "Let's rest here and go back tomorrow."
Joyce: "No, I need to prepare the paperwork for my Labelle's noble status tomorrow. Lucy, come home with me. You're not allowed to run away again."
