Asher emerged from the bathroom, his loosely tied bathrobe revealing just enough of his muscular chest. Droplets of water still clung to his hair.

His typically composed expression darkened immediately upon seeing the message and photos.

Well, well. Rupert Lysander. I’ve underestimated you–using a child to get close to Lia.

When had Rupert become so calculating?

Asher’s dark eyes flashed coldly.

It seemed Rupert truly wouldn’t give up until forced to.

Asher’s lips pressed into a thin line. Instead of responding to James Darwin’s message, he chose to ring Lucy’s psychologist.

The doctor had been personally recruited by Asher from abroad, with a salary he had negotiated himself, so the doctor answered any questions Asher posed without hesitation.

After inquiring about Lucy’s condition, Asher also learned about her preferences from the doctor.

Hanging up, Asher immediately called his assistant.

The next day, Asher arrived at the Winters residence bearing numerous gifts.

“I’ve come to see Lucy,” he announced.

The Blackwood household staff carried box after box of presents into the house.

“These are gifts I’ve brought for Lucy,” Asher explained. “After all, she suffered because of the Blackwood family…”

“Thanks,” Thalia responded coolly.

Asher inquired, “How is Lucy doing these days?”

He had already discussed her condition with the doctor last night, but was simply looking for ways to prolong the conversation with Thalia.

Thalia maintained her cool demeanor. “Much better.”

“That’s good to hear,” Asher said. “Where is she?”
