Chapter 451
After a long day, Lucy was starting to ache all over, feeling it even in her bones.
She fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed, and Matthew could not take his eyes off her gentle features. He was unable to resist caressing her delicate skin.
Lucy's beauty was inoffensive. Only those who spent time with her would understand her infinite charm.
Matthew wanted to protect her from the outside world, but Lucy bore the responsibility of the royal princess of Charleston, so she could not escape her duties. That was one of Matthew's dilemmas.
His wife was so attractive that she would draw many eyes to her, making him jealous.
Over the years, Matthew had never felt this way before. The word 'jealousy' was not in his dictionary.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Since he was a child, he stood out among his peers with his outstanding learning abilities.
During exams, his extraordinary intelligence always shone through, regardless of the papers' difficulty. He always came out at the top, and no one ever came close.
This situation persisted until the power struggle at Leon Corporation.
At that time, Matthew was merely in his early 20s and had just graduated from university. The Leons needed an heir to take over Leon Corporation, but no one believed that Matthew could do it. To their surprise, he managed to secure the position of CEO.
Naturally, some people were unhappy with the decision at first, but Matthew silenced them with one achievement after another. From then on, Leon Corporation stood at the top of the world, and no one could surpass the company.
Leon Corporation's various industries now spanned the globe, rightfully earning their status as a world-class enterprise.
It was not until Matthew met Lucy that he ever experienced what 'jealousy' was.
From the moment Cillian appeared, his heart was consumed by it.
Although Cillian could not outshine him, he still had his own charm.
Cillian was gentle and warm when he spoke, unlike Matthew's cold and distant tone. Matthew wanted to be more like him but found it difficult to change as that was not who he was. He even began to suspect that Lucy had developed feelings for Cillian.
It was then that jealousy aroused in him.

Lucy's soft voice was the best comfort for Matthew.
"I-I'm afraid you'll leave."
Lucy paused for a moment and realized what Matthew meant.
"Don't worry, Matt. I'll stay by your side forever. I'll never leave."
Matthew calmly got into bed and drifted off to sleep to the sound of Lucy's breathing.
