Chapter 16
Aria suddenly remembered something and turned abruptly to look at the Kingsley family.
“Godfather, Godmother, I’ve heard that the world’s richest family has the surname Kingsley…”
Mr. and Mrs. Kingsley exchanged glances with Lucas, their eyes filled with tenderness.
Finally, Lucas stroked her hair affectionately and said, “Aria, we weren’t deliberately hiding it from you. It’s just that the Kingsley name attracts a lot of attention. Even though you saved us, we didn’t know your background, so we couldn’t reveal our true identity. But yes, you guessed correctly–we
are the world’s wealthiest family.”
Aria was too shocked to speak. She never imagined that the people she had randomly helped would
turn out to be such important figures.
She quickly stepped back, “Mr. and Mrs. Kingsley, when I saved you, I truly had no idea who you were. If I had known, I definitely wouldn’t have agreed to be your goddaughter. Now that you’re
safely home, I should take my leave.”
As she turned to leave, she had barely taken a step when Lucas caught her wrist and pulled her into
his arms.
“Aria, my parents have grown so attached to you. Would it be right for you to just walk away like
this?”
Mr. and Mrs. Kingsley hurried forward as well. “Yes, Aria, regardless of who we are, the fact that you’re our goddaughter won’t change. How we treated you before–now we’ll only treat you better!”
Aria was stunned. “I just feel… that I don’t deserve this.”
Don’t deserve such wonderful parents.
Don’t deserve such a beautiful home.
Hearing this, and recalling what they had discovered about Aria’s past during their investigations, Mr. and Mrs. Kingsley and Lucas fell silent.
Lucas took a deep breath and said softly, “Aria, you are the most wonderful girl in the world. You need to know that you deserve the very best.”

“I… deserve it?”
All three of them nodded firmly at the same time.
Aria’s eyes welled with tears. “Okay then… I’ll stay.”
Living with the Kingsley family, Aria felt like she was in a fairytale dream world, surrounded by endless love and affection.
Mr. and Mrs. Kingsley took meticulous care of her. Every morning, they prepared her favorite breakfast, with the table filled with an array of exquisite pastries and fresh fruits.
Mrs. Kingsley would gently ask about her sleep and thoughtfully coordinate her outfits according to her preferences.
Lucas was constantly by her side, guiding her through every corner of the castle.
They would stroll through the garden blooming with flowers, where Lucas would pick a vibrant rose and gently place it in her hair, his eyes full of admiration.
He would also take her to the castle’s private theater to watch her favorite movies. The two would sit close together on the soft couch, sharing their thoughts and feelings.
When Aria expressed her desire to continue painting, the Kingsley family offered their full support.
Mr. Kingsley specially created a spacious, bright studio for her, equipped with top–of–the–line painting tools and precious pigments.
Mrs. Kingsley also sought out works from famous artists for her to study and appreciate, and invited renowned painting instructors to guide her. Lucas often accompanied her in the studio during peaceful and beautiful afternoons, quietly watching her concentrate on her art, the love in his eyes growing more intense by the day.
The Kingsley family regularly hosted grand gatherings, inviting celebrities from various fields.
At each event, they would proudly introduce Aria, treating her like the princess of the Kingsley family. In these settings, Aria gradually became more confident and cheerful, her beauty and talent shining before everyone. Lucas would always hold her arm tightly, making her feel incredibly
secure.
When Aria fell ill, the Kingsley family’s care was even more meticulous.

Mr. Kingsley immediately contacted the world’s top medical team to conduct comprehensive
examinations and treatment. Mrs. Kingsley personally cooked nutritious soups, feeding her spoonful by spoonful.
Lucas stayed by her bedside day and night, constantly monitoring her condition, his eyes full of worry and heartache.
Under the loving care of the Kingsley family and Lucas, Aria was transformed. She was no longer the insecure, timid girl who had endured so much hardship, but a sunshine–filled young girl surrounded by love.
