Chapter 489
Raymond scolded her with a smile, then waved his hand and said, “Why don't you go back first? I
guarantee the emerald seal will be delivered to you in an hour.”
Juliana narrowed her eyes at him. After a moment of silence, she suddenly laughed. “Mr. Raymond, I
have good faith in your integrity. All right, I'll go back first. Don't forget to send the emerald seal to my
residence. Master doesn't have much time.”
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked toward the door. However, she stopped
suddenly after taking two steps.
“Oh, by the way, Mr. Raymond, don't you ever think of fooling me with a fake emerald seal. Master has
already taught me how to identify the real one.”
In the bedroom of the Saunders residence, Vincent was leaning against the bed and coughing violently.
Victoria said anxiously from the side, “Please lie down and rest. It's better not to toss about.”
Vincent waved his hand and said intermittently, “Vicky, I have a wish yet to be fulfilled. Before I die, can
you please grant this last wish for your father?”
Victoria lowered her head slightly as her eyes fell on her flat belly. She seemed to have guessed what
her father's wish was.
She couldn't help but ask herself if she could even say no.
She and Lionel had so many heartbroken memories. Is it the right choice for us to be forced together
again?

Vincent's eyes also fell on her belly, and a look of pity flashed across his eyes.
“I don't want you to spend your whole life guarding a child alone. Lionel knows he's wrong, and he also
admitted his mistake in front of me. Please forgive him. Even if you don't think about others, you should
think about the child in your belly.”
Victoria's lips curled into a bitter smile.
She knew what her father wanted to say. What else could it be in his last words except for her
marriage?
“Dad, does it mean that if I agree to marry Lionel, you can rest in peace?”
Vincent suddenly felt sorry for Victoria.
He really shouldn't force his daughter this way.
However, he felt distressed whenever he thought of how the mother and daughter duo would be left all
alone and helpless in the future.
The more he thought about it, the more hard-hearted he became.
“Yes, if you marry Lionel, I will rest in peace. When I meet your mother later in the afterlife, and she
asks about you, I can at least reassure her that you will be fine.”
“Okay.” Victoria didn't hesitate for long before she agreed. “Lionel and I will go and register our
marriage as you wish. We will live a good life together.”
Vincent breathed a sigh of relief as if a weight had finally lifted off his chest.
“Great! I will be more than happy if I can see you and Lionel register your marriage at the City Hall
before I close my eyes for good.”
Victoria did not answer to that.
Meanwhile, in a bedroom at the Luther residence, Bailey was on a video call while leaning against the
floor-to-ceiling window.
Ever since Bailey decided to keep the child in her womb, she had moved in with Artemis into the Luther
residence.
“What, you have successfully obtained the emerald seal? How did you get it?”
“Master, please stop probing. You just need to know that I've successfully obtained the emerald seal to
solve your immediate plight. Are you sure this emerald is genuine? If it is genuine, then I will book a jet
to send it back to Hallsbay.”
Bailey didn't feel relieved at all. Even after getting her hands on the red emerald, she didn't feel the
slightest excitement in her heart.
Raymond was greedy and a conspirator who only wanted to maximize his profits. If he was willing to
hand over the emerald seal, it must mean that he had gotten what he wanted from Juliana.
As for what it was, Bailey hadn't had a clue unless Juliana told her about it. It seemed that she would
need to activate her forces over there to find out.
“Master, I'm talking to you. Is this emerald real or fake? I hope it's not a fake one. Otherwise, you'll be
in trouble.”
“Silly girl.” Bailey couldn't help but reprimand, “Do you really think that Artemis will let them put me in
prison?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Uh...”
Juliana scratched her head. “Before this, you said in front of so many people that you didn't need the
Luther family to protect you. I thought you were tough. I didn't expect you to rely on a man in the end.”
Bailey was rendered speechless for a moment.
This girl has become more and more brazen.
“Even if I want to be tough, it still depends on whether Artemis allows me to do so. He is not dead. No
way he would let me go to jail while pregnant. So Julie, please don't do stupid things for me. Do you
hear me?”
“Oh, I didn't do anything stupid. I didn't lose anything important. You should quickly confirm whether this
emerald is genuine.”
After speaking, she pointed the camera at the red emerald in her hand.
Bailey glanced again and said with certainty, “It is undoubtedly the emerald seal. I'm at ease now since
you said that you didn't use any important things to strike the deal. You should ask someone to send
the emerald seal back to Hallsbay first.”
“All right.”
The next day, Lionel was already waiting at the door of City Hall when Victoria arrived.
Victoria was in a daze as she looked at the slender figure on the steps through the car window.
This man was once her joy when she was young. She thought they would live happily ever after like all
those sweet couples in the world.
However, the reality only struck them with pain, tearing up the relationship they had spent so many
years building up.
Their story was, after all, a transient dream. It was like the moon's reflection in a lake, alluring but
untouchable.
