Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love

Chapter 336



Lucy opened her present after that. Her words made everyone burst out laughing.

Theodore bought back a box of snacks for Lucy. There were many items women liked hidden among the snacks.

There were perfumes and lipsticks, diamond necklaces and earrings. Lucy was still like a little girl, and Matthew had never given her any romantic presents.

She started playing with her presents and could not bear to let them go. She even teased Theodore about being a romantic when courting women and wanted to know when she would be getting a sister-in-law.

Theodore got shy from Lucy's teasing. Juliana quickly said, "Don't you know, Velda? Your brother is engaged. You'll probably have a sister-in-law at the end of this year or early next year."

“Is that true? I'll have to congratulate you in advance. Any woman you like must be a very nice person. I'll need to prepare a huge gift for you and your wife when you get married."

Lucy smiled as she said this to Theodore. Theodore said nothing. This was a royal marriage. The woman he was marrying was the daughter of the grand duke.

This was his parents' wish, and his feelings were not important. If his parents liked this woman, he would marry her.

When Lucy saw Theodore unwilling to talk about this, she stopped the topic. They chatted and laughed for a while before Arthur and Juliana had to leave.

Theodore did not leave with them. He stood at the door and said, "You should head home first, Mom and Dad. I have something I want to talk to Lulu in private..."

Lucy looked at Theodore in bewilderment after their parents left.

"What do you want to say to me that can't be said in front of Mom and Dad?"

Lucy initially smiled when she was saying this, but she got nervous when she saw how serious Theodore looked.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Lulu, tell me the truth. Who's trying to hurt you?"

Lucy looked a little hesitant when he asked

moms question. She paused a

moment before sighing and replying, "How did you find out about this? I didn't want you to worry."

"I'm fine now, and Mom and Dad said not to look into this any further. You should forget about it too."

Lucy did not really want to talk to Theodore about this because she was not sure whose side Theodore would be on.

It might even affect their relationship. After all, she had only recently reunited with her family.

She did not have a deep relationship with them like Charlotte did. It was not easy for her to be finally reunited with her family, and she did not want to ruin it so easily.

That was why she was willing to look away and tolerate certain things and people for this kinship.

Lucy looked like she did not want to talk about this, which frustrated Theodore. He had no idea why Lucy refused to trust him. He could only say patiently, "You're my sister. It's only right that I'm concerned for you. Don't feel pressured by it. You can tell me anything. I'll always protect you."

His sincere look was imprinted in Lucy's eyes, and she went into a slight daze.

She finally clenched her teeth and said, "What if... someone wanted to hurt me and it happened to be someone you love and is very close to you? What would you do then?"

Lucy felt unsettled when she said this. Theodore took a few steps back.

"Do you have any evidence, Lulu?"

Theodore asked this question because there was a part of him that refused to believe it.

Lucy shook her head with a small smile. She regretted talking about this with Theodore.

Theodore Suddenly grabbed her

shoulders and promised, "It's fine find the culprit for you. It doesn't matter who it is. I'll punish whoever committed the crime."
