Jayden listened attentively to all the instructions and even took notes. Camilla observed him closely. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions. However, she didn't show it. Cheryl was done with the soup, and the family went to the dining room to eat. Cheryl added some more instructions."Jayden, you can research other things yourself and even hire a professional doula to take care of Camilla. But there's one thing I must remind you of. You're already married, and Camilla is now pregnant. You're soon going to have a happy family. I don't want you to ruin your own home due to some impulsive thoughts," Cheryl warned sternly.Tamara's eyes flickered, and she glanced at Camilla, who was sipping the soup, seemingly unaffected.How could she be unaffected? Even Tamara didn't understand why Jayden had acted that way when she found out. Although it was a daring guess to her, it was a huge blow to Camilla.After learning about Camilla's pregnancy, Tamara didn't know how to react. Should
Jayden's head snapped to the side. He pressed his tongue against his cheek and gave her an indifferent look. "Camilla, we should rest now." With that, he grabbed her wrist and trapped her on the bed, forcefully making her rest.Camilla struggled, but she was no match for Jayden. Exhausted from the struggle, Camilla gasped for breath. She stared at the ceiling as amusement suddenly washed over her.This was the person she had loved. He seemed gentle on the surface. But in reality, he was ruthless. He had never changed his mind about anything. He was the same when he held her hostage and demanded a million dollars. And even now, when he chose to keep her by his side and claimed to love her. It seemed that from the very beginning, she had no right to refuse.Camilla closed her eyes from the pain. She felt extremely drowsy. But tonight was bound to be a sleepless one. She watched as the night turned to day with a dull expression.The person beside her moved and wrapped his arm
"Thank you," Camilla said sincerely as she received the documents.Simon smiled faintly. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and was about to light it when Camilla interrupted, "Sorry, but I'm pregnant. You can't ..."Simon paused in his action and turned to her in surprise. "So soon?"Camilla's eyes flickered.Simon scoffed. "I suddenly feel jealous of him."He was jealous that Jayden could have Camilla's wholehearted love. Even in a situation like this, she was willing to bear his child. Such good luck probably won't ever befall him.Camilla remained silent and began to look through the documents. Tanya was adopted right after she was born. Although she was not blood-related to the Huntsman family, she was treated as one of their own. The Huntsman family was wealthy, and they demanded excellence in Tanya's education. She went abroad to study at an early age. However, Camilla's brows furrowed as she read about Tanya's experiences abroad, and her concern grew."Disgust
Camilla paused, but she didn't refuse and ordered some food she liked from the menu. She handed the menu back to the waiter before turning to Simon. She said sincerely, "I still want to thank you for helping me understand all this."Simon sighed helplessly. "But this isn't enough proof. Without evidence of his infidelity, what's your next move?"Jayden? Cheating? Camilla's lashes trembled, and she hesitated before saying, "He said he would give me an answer. I'll wait for him."Simon gave her a look and felt pity for her. She was so carefree when she was his secretary. But after marrying Jayden, this was how she turned out.Simon smiled helplessly. "If he betrays you after the amount of trust you have in him, I'll make sure he has hell to pay."Camilla remained silent.Neither of them spoke for a while, and the atmosphere grew tense. Just then, the restaurant's door opened, and a familiar voice sounded. "Camilla!"Camilla looked up and saw Kylie hurrying toward them. A brigh
Kylie tried her best to speak some sense into Camilla. After learning that Jayden was a scumbag, she developed a strong dislike for him and hoped that Camilla would quickly free herself from this misery. Camilla couldn't help but laugh at Kylie's anxiousness. "We still need an answer, don't we?"Kylie was taken aback and wanted to retort. But when she saw Camilla's pale face, she decided not to. "Okay. It's up to you," Kylie said. After all, it was Camilla's own affair. And people's emotions were one of the worst things to solve. It didn't seem right for her, an outsider, to cross the line.Simon glanced at Kylie and suddenly piped up, "Considering that you're on my side, I'll reluctantly treat you to a meal."Kylie thought she misheard him. "Huh? What did you say? I'm on your side? When did I come to your side?"Simon cocked an eyebrow. "I also think Camilla should free herself from this misery. So, our interests align. Doesn't that mean we're on the same side?""You're hilar
Simon furrowed his brow, but he took one glance at Camilla and didn't insist. He simply said, "Then I'll get going now.""Okay." Camilla nodded and watched Simon leave.After Simon left, Camilla turned to Kylie and asked curiously, "You seem to be hostile around Simon."Something flashed across Kylie's eyes. "I used to think he was deeply in love with you. But I had someone investigate his past. And let me tell you, it was beyond shocking. I was startled when I found out. He has had so many ex-girlfriends that they could form a line around the world. He was your typical playboy."Camilla felt indifferent toward the information. "He's not married, nor does he have a fiancée. It's natural for rich bachelors like him.""You're quite open-minded," Kylie pouted. "Enough. Let's get in the car. Are you going back to the Moore manor?" "Yes." Camilla nodded. Her hand rested on her abdomen. She didn't want to return there, but where else could she go? She was still waiting for Jayden's
Camilla's guts told her a different story. But changing the bed sheets and covers wasn't a big deal, so she didn't think much of it.Back on the bed, Jayden leaned in, But Camilla coldly said, "Don't touch me."Jayden froze, but he still embraced her. "Sweetheart, I can't sleep without holding you."Camilla's heart raced. But the thought of the unresolved matter with Tanya quickly cooled her down. She closed her eyes and turned her back to Jayden. "I'm tired. Don't disturb me.""Fine." Jayden didn't continue to bother her. He was content with just holding her. His steady breath fell on her back.Camilla had a long nap before this, so now she wasn't sleepy. She calmly gazed at the dark night sky outside the window. The sky seemed like the mouth of a beast, devouring her relentlessly.Sadness and sorrow spread through her.Camilla closed her eyes.Why wouldn't he tell her what the experiment was about? She was even willing to believe in a stupid experiment.Grief flooded her lik
Camilla smiled faintly. "I will."Nathan wanted to continue but decided not to in the end. His sister would tell him eventually. Maybe it wasn't the right timing. He would be patient.His sister was good to him. He should trust her.After lunch, Camilla left the hospital and stood by the roadside to hail a taxi. Just then, her phone suddenly rang. She took it out and looked at it. All of a sudden, despite the sunlight shining down on her, she couldn't feel the warmth. Instead, a bone-chilling coldness seeped into her and spread throughout her body.She paled instantly at the content on her phone. She stood there like a statue, motionless. The phone kept vibrating, and Kylie kept sending her messages. "That damn bastard! I hope he dies soon!"Another read: "Camilla, are you still going to endure after everything that happened? The only shit he hasn't done is take that slut home and fuck her in front of you!"Again, it read: "I'm about to explode with anger! Camilla, what should
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
