Chapter 1429:

Lucius was enveloped in a dream that led him to discover his true self.

In his dream, Lucius journeyed through his life, observing himself from his first encounter with Nicola, through his deepening affection for her, to the moment his obsessive love began to alter and damage her. It was as if he were an observer watching a film about his own life.

He finally recognized the extremity of his actions. He had expected love in return for his own, and sought vengeance even at the cost of his morals. The actions that filled his memories had perverted his intentions, transforming him into a monstrous figure.

Lucius watched the events of his life unfold, struck by a strange feeling. These experiences were familiar because he had lived them, yet they felt alien, as if he no longer knew the man he had become.

A decade after Nicola’s incident, Lucius had orchestrated a crisis for the Green Group to retaliate against Nathaniel, causing the deaths of dozens of babies, just to falsely report that the group’s baby formula was poisonous.

After executing this plan, Lucius had felt no remorse for the infants. Almost immediately, he had delved into human trafficking, collaborating with Casper to accumulate wealth continuously.

Just then, teenage Harlee suddenly appeared in Lucius’ dream. He followed her out of curiosity, only to hear her say with gratitude, “Mr. Swain, I’m so lucky to have you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known what it feels like to have a family.”

She gazed at the full moon, her face lit with a smile, holding back her tears.
