Jayden reached out and cupped her face. He gazed gently at her. "Don't you want a child of our own?"Camilla nodded. "I do."Jayden's eyes darkened. "But it's still too early," Camilla smiled. "I'm not in a hurry."Jayden fell silent. He kissed her lightly and said against her lips, "You've been naughty, Camilla."Camilla blushed. "Have I?""To make up for it, you should help with my little problem." Jayden bent down and swept Camilla off her feet. "But it's still bright outside ..." Camilla immediately resisted.Jayden tilted his head. "Don't you want it?"Camilla hesitated.Does she want it?Forget it.Happiness is the most important thing right now!...Monday. Camilla arrived at the dessert shop. After changing into her work clothes, Charlotte pushed the door open and walked in. "Camilla, you look to be in good spirits. Did something good happen?" Charlotte asked gently.Camilla nodded. "I'm doing well in my courses.""You're a clever girl. Studying should com
The hospital across the street was privately owned. It had a good environment and excellent service.A nurse approached her and asked, "How may I help you?" "I'm here to find someone," Camilla said. "His name is Jayden Moore."Something flashed across the nurse's eyes. "Alright, let me check. Is he a patient or a hospital staff member?" "I don't know." Camilla sounded defeated.The nurse smiled apologetically. "If that's the case, it might be difficult to find him. But I'll help you look it up."With that, the nurse began searching using the computer.Camilla scanned the hospital lobby. She saw Jayden entering earlier, but where did he go? Could he have gone somewhere else?"Miss, I'm sorry. But we don't have the person you're looking for," the nurse informed her."I see, thank you," Camilla said and turned to leave the hospital. She felt a sense of unease, as if something bad was about to happen. She walked out of the hospital, feeling the breeze against her skin, and sighe
"What's wrong, Camilla?" Kylie noticed how pale Camilla grew and asked anxiously, "Is your foot hurting?""I'm fine," Camilla replied dryly. She opened the car door and got out. She suddenly realized the social gap between her and Jayden. She lived in a run-down residential building and was constantly struggling for a living while he existed in a different world, a world she had forcefully entered. They were worlds apart. Even though she was diligently learning skills the rich and noble ladies possessed, she couldn't bridge the inferiority complex brought about by her background.She slowly returned to her room, which had accumulated some dust over the past few days. Camilla observed the room and began to clean it up. "You don't have to clean them. Let me do it instead. Your foot is injured." Kylie snatched the cloth from her hand."I can't do that. Give it to me," Camilla insisted. Kylie was stubborn and quickly busied herself.Camilla frowned. "How about we head over to
"Kylie, are you injured?" Brandon immediately scrutinized Kylie from head to toe when he saw her, his face filled with concern. Kylie shook her head. "I'm not the one who's injured. Camilla is. Please hurry and check on her.""Okay." Relieved that she wasn't hurt, Brandon approached Camilla and immediately furrowed his brow at her swollen ankle. "Did you fracture your ankle?"Camilla shook her head. "No, I just twisted it when I turned around."Brandon reached out and pressed her ankle, examining if the bones were injured. "The bones seem fine."After a moment, Brandon frowned. "Why is it so swollen?" There was no fracture, just a slight sprain. Brandon quickly popped the bone back into place and relief washed over Camilla instantly.Kylie, who stood nearby, asked, "Could there be other reasons for her sprained ankle?""We'll have to go to the hospital for an examination. I can't see it with my naked eye." Brandon chuckled.Camilla mumbled, "It doesn't hurt as much anymore."
Camilla took out her phone and saw that it was a call from Jayden. She paused for a moment before answering. "Hello?""Camilla, you called me just now. Have you finished work?" Jayden's low and gentle voice came through."Yes," Camilla replied with a lowered gaze.Kylie pulled Brandon up, and the two of them went to the balcony.Camilla blinked. "Where are you now?""I'm at the research institute." Jayden's tone was gentle. "Do you miss me?"Camilla felt a lump in her throat. After a while, she responded, "I won't be going back tonight.""Why?" Jayden sounded confused. "Did something happen?""I'm staying with Kylie tonight," Camilla muttered softly, struggling to control her emotions. She hastily added, "We're about to have dinner. Let's talk later." She hung up almost immediately.She stared blankly at her swollen ankle as tears welled up in her eyes. She clearly saw him at the hospital. But why did he lie to her?What was he actually doing?Her heart felt heavy, and she
Brandon stared at Kylie dumbfoundedly. He was just a little bit inexperienced. Was it really necessary to be so harsh on him? What about his feelings? …Back at the Moore manor, Camilla observed the luxurious decor and suppressed her emotions. She turned to Kylie. "Can you wait for me here?"Kylie blinked. "How long will the class be?""Two hours," Camilla muttered sheepishly."That's too long. I'll head out for a while and come back in two hours." Kylie huffed."That works too." Camilla nodded and got out of the car.Kylie watched her leave before calling up Brandon. "Did you find anything?""I did." Brandon's tone was hesitant. "And we are familiar with the person too."Kylie furrowed her brow. "Enough with the suspense. Who is it?""Tanya Huntsman," Brandon revealed. …Camilla slowly entered the manor. She saw the three children waiting for her in the living room. And Jayden was nowhere to be found. Ms. Thompson approached her. "Welcome home, Ms. Camilla. What happen
Camilla frowned. She sensed that something was off about Kylie. She glanced at the somber-faced Jayden and said, "I'll stay over at Kylie's tonight. Goodbye"Jayden furrowed his brows and said bluntly, "Don't go. Your foot is injured."Camilla was taken aback, not expecting him to notice her foot right away."That won't do. She promised to stay at my place tonight. Don't worry. I'll keep a close watch over her. In fact, she always gets the princess treatment when she's with me," Kylie interjected before pulling Camilla outside with her. All of a sudden, another hand grabbed Camilla."Camilla." Jayden's words were laced with coldness. "You're hurt. Don't go,"Camilla swallowed hard. This was a first. She had never once been between a man and a woman.Kylie's expression turned ugly. Camilla glanced at Jayden. "I'm fine."Which meant she didn't want to be there.Jayden narrowed his eyes before letting her go. "Alright, I'll pick you up tomorrow.""Okay." Camilla nodded.Kylie
Camilla gave Kylie a helpless look. "Please tell me what's on your mind, Kylie. How long do you plan on keeping me in the dark?" Kylie pursed her lips and felt extremely conflicted. After a while, she mumbled, "You know what? I can't stay silent about this any longer. And you're his girlfriend. You deserve to know."Camilla's frown deepened. So Kylie did know something. What was it?Kylie remained silent for a few seconds before she started, "Brandon found out who Jayden was visiting. It was Tanya."At the news, Camilla's eyes widened into the size of a saucer. She instinctively said, "Wasn't Tanya sent to the countryside by the Huntsman family?" Tanya had set her up before. She bought a tiramisu from the dessert shop and later claimed to have been poisoned by it. Camilla tagged along to the hospital but was caught by Kyle, who ordered his men to beat her up. Later, she was rescued by Simon. When Jayden caught wind of it, he brought Camilla to Tanya's ward. Camilla had witnessed
The bed was also adorned in striking white. Margot's bridal gown gradually slipped off, and her hair spread out behind her on the bed. Her smooth skin shone beneath the dazzling light.Benjamin stared at her. "Margot, you have to spend the rest of your life making up for your lies.""Okay," Margot agreed without hesitation.The temperature in the room rose, and the night had just begun.It was as Tamara said. Because of their tragic past, the heavens decided to bless them in this life. They lived happily ever after from that day onward.Benjamin successfully inherited the Inkling Corporation. A year later, Margot gave birth to a daughter. She resembled Benjamin and was as beautiful as a doll.Their little girl grew up in a loving family, and the love between Margot and Benjamin only grew with time. They developed Nammu Bay, transforming it into a popular tourist destination.Another year passed, and Tamara and Sebastian got married. The wedding was almost identical to the one fr
The newlywed walked into the wedding hall hand in hand.The wedding hall was also well-decorated. Shane, Trevor, Jacob, and Alex sat in the front row.The host congratulated the couple, and after the couple exchanged rings, the crowd erupted in cheers. The wedding went past quickly. And when Margot was led to her bridal room, she was still very much in a daze.Because of Margot's condition, she had to leave early and let Benjamin deal with the guests alone.As time passed, Margot grew more and more anxious. But she didn't dare move a muscle. Benjamin had told her to keep the veil on and wait for him.Margot had never been this obedient before. But she had no choice. Disobeying wouldn't do. What if her husband ran away?Just then, the door opened. Margot's heart tightened, and she immediately went tense in anticipation.A faint stench of alcohol wafted over, and she saw his shoes from under the veil.He was standing before her but made no move to greet her.Margot couldn't help
When the others saw Benjamin standing still in a daze, they all asked in confusion, "What's going on? Why did he stop?""What is he thinking about?""Did he lose his mind because he was too excited to meet his bride?"Someone made a joke, and others burst into laughter.Downstairs, Sebastian exchanged looks with Tamara, who was upstairs. His gaze returned to Benjamin.The wedding had been going on smoothly. But it seemed that Benjamin's memories might be their biggest challenge.Now that Benjamin had recovered his memories, what would he do next?However, Benjamin quickly came back to his senses. He walked forward calmly until he reached the door. As his gaze swept over Tamara and Natasha, a small smile appeared on his face.Tamara piped up, "Mr. Inkling, Nat and I had planned to set up some challenges for you. However, considering the hardships you and Margot have gone through, those challenges seem trivial in front of you. So, I thought, why not give you a clear path that led
"Shit! Isn't that too ruthless?""Leave it to the four Moore brothers to pull this trick!""Stop standing around and start drinking!"Benjamin watched on without any change in expression. He turned to the last row of men and smiled. "I'll leave the first round to you."Those men were all eager to try. They rolled up their sleeves and loosened their ties, their eyes gleaming with excitement.Benjamin made room for them, and they eagerly stepped forward. They picked up the glasses and downed them in one gulp."Let's go!" The cheers that erupted motivated them further. But despite their fierce drinking, they were no match for the abundant alcohol. When they looked up, they found that they were only halfway through. Some of them were already feeling tipsy!Sunlight spilled onto the drinks. A gentle breeze caused ripples on the liquid, resembling scattered stars.The men noticed the entrance was within arm's reach, and they gritted their teeth to endure the torture.Harris was th
The morning sunlight bathed the earth, casting a brilliant glow on every corner of Simmons Residence. Everyone's faces were filled with smiles. In the room, the styling team was already in position. They first helped Margot into the wedding gown and began styling her hair.Although Margot never decided on her bridal makeup, she did try each style. To surprise her, Benjamin accompanied her to try out the bridal makeup but kept the final choice from her.Now, dressed in the beautiful wedding gown, Margot remembered the makeup styles she had tried before, and a smile graced her face. Tamara and Natasha also changed into their bridesmaid dresses. The makeup artist was working on them when Alex walked in with a gentle smile. "Have you done your preparation for the challenges?"Tamara gave a thumbs up. "Don't worry, Mom. I won't let them take your daughter away easily."Alex giggled. "That won't do. We have to see if Margot agrees."Margot immediately exclaimed, "I'm all in favor!"
"You're right!" Tamara exclaimed, and the three women chatted for a while before gradually falling asleep.In the Inkling Manor, lights were on, and a festive atmosphere filled every corner. Wealthy young men who knew Benjamin gathered there, celebrating the night.A few people sat on the couch by the pool. There were various drinks on the table. Jack picked up a bottle and praised, "This is a good wine. It's at least 30 years old! You're going all out, Mr. Inkling."Benjamin's face carried a contented smile. "It's my big day, so let's all have a good time together."Jack gave him a thumbs up. "You're very generous, Mr. Inkling."The others laughed along.Benjamin turned to Sebastian and suddenly smiled. "Why are you so calm? When we go over tomorrow, I wonder what challenges Tamara has for you."Sebastian calmly muttered, "She'll only cause trouble for you."Benjamin cocked an eyebrow. "You're quite confident. I can't wait to see you eat your words tomorrow."Sebastian shrugg
Margot responded, "Yes, but I believe he will recover his memory soon."Joseph chuckled. "It doesn't matter if he does recover his memory. He loves you either way."A sweet smile appeared on Margot's face.He was right. Benjamin loved her with or without his memories. Nothing could ever change that.Joseph gazed at Margot for a while before shifting his gaze away. He turned to the night sky outside. "It seems that tonight will be a special one."Margot looked at him. "Do you have any plans for the future, Joseph?"Joseph smiled. "I will work for Moore Corporation. After all, I'm the only one in our family who studied business."Margot's eyes flickered. Joseph's life was still the same as in her past life. He would still manage Moore Corporation while the other brothers shine in their respective fields."That's great! I'll have a powerful backer now. I can just mention your name if someone bullies me. As the cousin of the Moore Corporation's president, no one would dare lay thei
Margot reached out to touch the wedding gown, feeling the expensive fabric. Every stitch and thread carried Benjamin's love for her. She looked up at Tamara. "I'm scared, Tammy."Tamara seemed to know what she was afraid of and hugged her close. "Don't be. This is real. It's really happening.Tears welled up in Margot's eyes. Tamara understood her the best. She feared this was just a dream, an illusion she would wake up from. There was no rebirth, cat-and-mouse games, or Nammu Bay destruction. Everything was just a trick her mind had made up.After all this time, Margot finally felt fear.She held onto Tamara tightly. Even when tears streamed down, Margot didn't dare to blink, afraid that she would return to a cold room if she did, a world without him.Tamara gently stroked her back. "Hold me tight, Margot. I'm real. You've felt the wedding dress. That's real, too. Nothing is an illusion. It was all real."Margot finally calmed down. She suddenly felt embarrassed. "Sorry about
"I do! I do want to be your daughter," Margot hurriedly exclaimed. She looked flustered. "I was just a bit overwhelmed. I never expected this. Aunt Alex, I …"Tamara laughed. "Since you're now her daughter, why aren't you referring to her as your mom?"Margot felt even more embarrassed!She grew up in an orphanage and had little concept of parental love. Although she had fantasized about having a mother like Tamara's, it was just a dream. She didn't have a mother. That was why she felt close to Alex. With Alex officially adopting Margot as her daughter, Margot gained a mother from that point onward.Margot's eyes watered. No matter how hard she tried to hold it in, she couldn't stop the tears from falling.Seeing this, Alex quickly took out tissues to wipe them away. "Don't cry. You'll get wrinkles if you cry."But the comforting words only made it worse.Margot threw herself into Alex's arms.Alex comforted Margot patiently, her eyes also glossing over.However, Jacob fr
