Stefan's kindness convinced Lucinda to be the one to end the call. She clutched her phone, lost in thought.

The guilt of avoiding Stefan weighed on her, especially given how well he had treated her. Despite the lack of a deep emotional bond between them, she recognized feelings could grow. Perhaps she was on the cusp of falling in love.

After some reflection, Lucinda resolved to face her feelings head-on, regardless of any future challenges or competition. She felt reassured by her decision. Setting her phone on the bedside table, she drifted into a deep sleep.

Meanwhile, Fiona struggled with restlessness. Her constant tossing disrupted Vincent, preventing him from finding any sleep of his own.

He sat up and said, "Fiona, if you can't sleep, you can go downstairs and watch TV or go chat with the neighbors."

He was used to taking a nap at noon. If he didn't sleep, he would feel sleepy and listless.

Fiona also sat up, looking at her husband who couldn't sleep because of her. She was silent for a moment, then said, "Lucinda said something earlier that left me dumbfounded."

"Is it about her and Stefan?"

Vincent said, "No matter who Stefan is, as long as he loves our Lucy, that's enough. As for the obstacles between them, we can't interfere, that's their business."

"Whoever Lucy chooses, she has to bear the consequences."

"But that's not what I meant. Stefan asked Lucy what she would do if she wasn't our biological daughter."

Hearing this, Vincent was also stunned.
