Camilla stared at him, unblinking. "Thank you, darling.""What did you call me?" Jayden's breath hitched, and his eyes darkened.Camilla turned bright red. "Darling."Jayden pulled her close and kissed her. "You're welcome, sweetheart."Oh. That sounded nice.Camilla's face grew even redder, and she felt overwhelmed with happiness. It felt like she was in a dream.The car soon arrived at their home."Do you like it here, or do you prefer the apartment? We can make either one of them our official home." Jayden held her hand gently.Camilla hummed. "I think this place is perfect."It was here that they solidified their relationship. This was their beginning."Alright. Then this will be our home from now on." Jayden nodded.The two entered the manor. Jayden turned to her and asked, "What kind of wedding do you want?""A wedding?" Camilla asked."Yes, I want to give you a grand wedding." Jayden looked at her seriously. He would give her everything she wanted.Camilla blinked.
Charlotte widened her eyes at Camilla in disbelief before she smiled understandingly. "Sure. As long as you've made up your mind." Camilla returned the smile and began working.Charlotte smiled faintly at how happy Camilla looked. Her eyes darkened, and she said off-handedly, "Camilla, I'm truly envious of your relationship with Mr. Moore." Camilla smiled faintly as a blush painted her face. "I was surprised by it too.""You were?" Charlotte raised an eyebrow. "Did he plan an elaborate proposal?"Camilla shook her head. "No."Charlotte's brow furrowed slightly. "The Moore family is different from us ordinary people. Considering the significant difference in your social status, I feel it's unfair to you if he didn't make a grand gesture during his proposal. He didn't even make any guarantees to you. Isn't it too hasty for you to get married to him?" Camilla looked at Charlotte. She knew where the older woman was coming from. But she wasn't like the other girls. She didn't care
Camilla picked up a charm and showed it to Jayden. "Should we put up some of these in the room?"Jayden smiled dotingly at her. "We can if you want to. Do whatever you like with the house."Camilla felt delighted, and a smile appeared on her usually cold face. She looked like a happy yet shy maiden.Camilla bought whatever she liked throughout their trip, and Jayden never turned her down. After they had purchased everything they wanted, an hour and a half had passed. Camilla stared at the filled trunk and couldn't help but smile at how nice all the decorations would look in their home.Jayden opened the passenger seat for her. "Let's go home and start decorating.""Okay." Camilla got into the car, her heart filled with anticipation for the future. After decorating the manor, the entire place gave off new energy. By the time they finished tidying up, it was already 8 pm. Camilla sank down on the couch, tired beyond words. Jayden leaned down and pecked her cheeks. "Will that be
While Camilla was lost in thought, a pair of strong arms suddenly wrapped around her waist, straddling her. She looked up and saw it was Jayden embracing her from behind. He rested his chin on her shoulder. "You're unhappy." Camilla paused. "No, I'm not.""You are," Jayden argued.Camilla sighed. She had never seen this side of Jayden before. He was acting spoiled, but her heart softened at him nevertheless.Jayden held her and slowly led her to the balcony. The cool breeze blew past them, bringing the heat off of them. "Sweetheart, we're married now. We should share everything. It doesn't matter if it's your happiness or sorrows, I want to know everything about you. Likewise, I will share my day with you," Jayden spoke softly and calmly as if reciting a poem. Camilla's eyelashes fluttered, and her heart thumped uncontrollably. She bit her lips before saying, "I just suddenly realized that I might have been deceived by you." "What?" Jayden cocked an eyebrow. "What do you mea
Camilla didn't feel any sense of ease at her words. Instead, heaviness weighed her chest. So a child wasn't enough to win a person's heart. And the poor woman was even cast aside.Camilla lowered her gaze gloomily.Charlotte sighed at Camilla's reaction. "If I had known you were sentimental, I wouldn't have told you this. Don't overthink it. Mr. Moore is different. Besides, the Moore family is different from the other families in Clacton. The Moore family has always been very accepting of their children and didn't care about social status. They just want their children to be happy." Camilla remained silent, but her eyes trembled slightly. Charlotte continued, "Speaking of which, I envy the Moore family's daughter, Tamara. Her story with her husband is quite touching. They were a perfect match, even back in Londsville. And now, they have become the heirs of two of Clacton's big four. It seems like they were destined to be together." "Yes, they are very happy." Camilla nodded.T
"What's wrong?" With a perplexed look on her face, Camilla looked at him and asked quizzically.Scott, grappling with unspoken words, cast a contemplative glance at his phone and then at her. Inevitably, he approached her with a nuanced countenance and uttered, "Camilla, I believe you and Mr. Moore are a perfect match. However, he has betrayed you." As he spoke, he handed his phone over to Camilla.Camilla's gaze landed on the phone, revealing a glimpse of a social media post in her peripheral vision. It was a friend's post, authored by none other than Tanya.The text read, "Thank you, dear Mr. Moore." accompanied by an image that unveiled a grand bouquet of roses and a hand with distinct joints grasping a delicate, lovely hand.The image did not reveal a frontal view, yet Camilla was intimately familiar with that hand.Just last night, that very hand had left tenderly and meticulously traces over her entire body.Camilla's face paled in an instant. She stared at the social med
"Camilla, my dear, we're friends. It's only natural for us to support each other. Wait for me, okay? I'll be there soon," Kylie hurriedly consoled her after hearing the slight quiver in Camilla's voice.Camilla hummed in response before promptly ending the call. She went into the restroom and splashed cold water on her face, trying to make herself more alert. She couldn't afford to break down; she had to find out the truth.Half an hour later, Kylie showed up at the dessert shop. By this time, Camilla had composed herself, though her complexion remained somewhat pale. Nevertheless, she looked much better than before."Camilla, carry on with what you wanted to do. We'll talk once you're done." Kylie didn't immediately question what had happened. Instead, she allowed Camilla to attend to her personal matter first. After all, something serious must have happened for someone as dedicated and diligent as Camilla to abruptly stop working."Okay." Camilla nodded and walked away.The dess
Camilla suddenly found it hard to breathe. It felt like there were daggers down her throat, and every breath seemed excruciatingly painful to her. She closed her eyes and rolled down the window, letting in some fresh air. She was trying to relieve her emotions. Why did it hurt so much?Simon frowned as he looked at her pale face. "Camilla, are you alright?"However, Camilla couldn't hear anything outside of her bubble anymore. The only things on her mind now were that post with the photo and what Jayden had said to her.Was he with Tanya now? Didn't he promise her he wouldn't have anything to do with Tanya anymore?It was only because he had given Camilla his word that she didn't continue interrogating him about this. However, that post felt like a rude slap to her face. It brought her back to reality."Camilla? Camilla!"Simon grabbed Camilla's hands and got her to face him. He kept calling out her name and said, "Camilla, calm down, alright? What's on your mind now? Tell me, and I'l
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
