In truth, Lucy's feelings for Hayden were a mix of love and resentment.
She loved Hayden.
Lucy, a classic Josonan beauty, had always longed for romance. But coming from a poor background, she chose stability over love and married a wealthy businessman, Aaron, despite having no feelings for him. Life as a rich wife was comfortable, and Aaron adored her, giving her everything she wanted.
Yet it still wasn't enough.
Then, she met Hayden, a college graduate who had returned home.
In that era, college graduates were rare. Hayden was a romantic intellectual who perfectly fit Lucy's idealized image of a man. She fell for him at first sight and soon tumbled headfirst into love.
However, Hayden didn't love her. To him, Lucy was nothing more than a free nanny. He married her only because Carly liked her.
Hayden married her to provide Carly with a suitable stepmother.
Hayden had only ever loved one woman in his life. He was obsessed with her, devoted to her, and spent his entire life protecting that woman's daughter.
Lucy knew all of this, and she resented him for it.
So, years ago, she came up with a bold plan to switch Celine and Carly at birth.
As she looked at Hayden, Lucy sneered inwardly. She had succeeded. She had taken revenge on everyone. If Hayden ever found out that he had been protecting the wrong person all along, the look on his face would be priceless.
Not only that, but she had also ensured that her own biological daughter became the heiress of the world's richest man. Lucy was proud of what she had accomplished.
But now, it seemed her actions had come back to bite her. Carly no longer acknowledged her as her mother.
The sales associates' eyes lit up. "Of course, Ms. Tate."
Carly smiled faintly. "From now on, don't call me Ms. Tate."
The sales associates were puzzled. "Why not?"
Tracy chimed in, "That's because Carly is changing her last name to Hampton."
"Hampton?" one of the sales associates remarked. "That's a powerful name. Isn't that the same last name as the world's richest man?"
"That's right," another chimed in. "I heard he's been searching for his long-lost daughter for years."
"Some people are just born lucky," a third associate mused. "Imagine finding out you're the heiress to the wealthiest family in the world."
