The makeup artist froze. They weren't expecting the silent Camilla to make a fuss.The makeup artist gave the manager a frightful glance.The manager was equally confused. "Mrs. Moore, you ..."Camilla grabbed the makeup remover and began wiping off the makeup from her face. Looking at Jayden's mirror reflection, she asserted, "I want the same look as shown in the pictures."Jayden looked at her cold expression. He knew she was deliberately finding fault, but he had no way to counter her.She was the same.The wedding photos had to be taken.Even if the makeup wasn't right, they could always make adjustments."Follow the makeup from the pictures," Jayden instructed the makeup artist.The makeup artist nodded hesitantly and applied the makeup according to the picture. This time, it looked the same as the pictures, and Camilla didn't say anything further.The makeup artist sighed in relief.However, the makeup from the pictures didn't suit Camilla. It was meant to be vibra
Seeing the couple leave the room, the manager approached and asked, "Mr. Moore, are we ready to start now?""Yes," Jayden hummed.They walked into the scene and posed according to the photographer's instructions.Camilla quickly composed herself. When the photographer instructed them on poses, she replicated the expressions perfectly. Though Camilla had a cool personality, she mimicked a playful and mischievous expression. Because of this, she looked awkward, no matter how hard she tried. Without her natural beauty, the photos came out bad. The photographer couldn't help but grumble to themselves. But they didn't dare show it on their faces. Pissing the couple off would cost them their jobs.After the reshoot, Camilla returned to the dressing room to remove her makeup. Once the heavy makeup was cleaned away, Camilla's naturally cool face reemerged.Staring at her reflection in the mirror, Camilla felt like she was looking at a stranger. She mused, "Is this really me? Acting
Nathan pursed his lips. Something flashed across his eyes as he stared at Camilla's gentle face. Camilla's words contradicted what he had been told. According to that person, Jayden had his sister confined, subjecting her to experiments. Nathan's initial reaction had been disbelief. Nevertheless, that individual persisted, asserting that Nathan had been relocated here because Jayden was using him as a pawn. This hospital belonged to the Moore family. Even more so, it was Jayden's private property. Here, he was the one who called the shots. Looking at Camilla's forced smile, Nathan felt an overwhelming surge of anger. He was angry at his inability to protect his own sister. He was angry at Jayden for harming his sister. He had to grow stronger and free his sister from this torment!"I believe you." Nathan did not show his emotions. Instead, he gave Camilla a curt nod.Camilla reached out and ruffled his hair. She sighed. "Time flies. You'll be able to get out of bed and
Camilla paused abruptly. However, Jayden had deepened the kiss. Camilla stiffened but didn't struggle or resist. They were legally married. Jayden could do anything to her. Not to mention, Nathan was in his hands. Camilla couldn't resist. The kiss went on for some time. Camilla's breath was uneven as she leaned against the chair. She gazed out of the window, seemingly lost in thought.The next day. Camilla didn't go to the research institute. Instead, she called Kylie and invited her to go shopping. When Kylie arrived, she immediately rushed over and hugged Camilla."My dear Camilla, I missed you so much!" exclaimed Kylie.Camilla was overwhelmed by Kylie's enthusiasm. She patted Kylie's back. "I missed you too."Kylie let go of Camilla and carefully examined her from head to toe. "No injuries in sight. Just a bit thinner."Camilla couldn't help but chuckle. "Isn't it good to be slimmer? I've been wanting to lose weight anyway."Kylie sighed. "I didn't expect that l
Kylie carefully observed Camilla and noted her calm demeanor. A glint of curiosity flashed in Kylie's eyes. "Simon is concerned about your situation. He knows I came out with you today."Camilla paused. "How is his recovery?"Kylie mumbled, "He's almost recovered. His injuries weren't too serious.""That's good." Camilla nodded.They didn't delve further into the topic. Kylie liked Simon, and her straightforward personality meant that she wore her heart on her sleeves. That was how Camilla found out about her crush.Furthermore, Camilla held no romantic interest in Simon. She genuinely hoped that Kylie and Simon could be together and lead a happy life. She didn't want them to end up like her and Jayden, where things had turned sour no matter how they looked at it.Kylie chuckled and couldn't help but ask, "Camilla, are you really not interested in Simon?"Camilla gave her a helpless look. "If I had any interest in him, I wouldn't be dealing with Jayden now."Kylie breathed
Camilla laughed self-deprecatingly. She wasn't part of the Clacton's big four. She wasn't even distantly related. All in all, she was not the main character of any story. So, she decided to handle her affairs with Jayden by herself.Simon gave her a complicated look. He was surprised by her determination. Yet, that was who Camilla was. Once she set her mind, she'd charge toward the finishing line. Simon sighed. "Alright, feel free to contact me if you need anything. I'll be there."Camilla gave him a sincere smile. "Thank you."Kylie chimed in, "Me too! I'll always support you!""I'm glad I have you. Both of you." Camilla expressed her gratitude.The food was served, and the group enjoyed their meal happily. They reminisced about old times while eating. After finishing their meal, they headed straight to a karaoke bar.It was the afternoon, and the bar had just opened. There weren't many people around. The place felt deserted.Camilla went ahead and booked a VIP room. It w
Camilla stared blankly at Jayden, who had appeared before her. After gazing at him for a while, she suddenly burst into laughter and reached out to touch his face. "You're here."The moment she spoke, Jayden could tell that she had been drinking.His brows knitted tightly, and he sent Simon and Kylie a look. Simon shrugged. His expression was a mix of disdain and mockery, but he remained silent. Kylie, on the other hand, glared harshly at Jayden.Jayden withdrew his gaze and held Camilla's hand. "I'm here to take you home. Let's go."With that, he started to lead her away.However, Camilla stayed rooted in her spot. She clung tightly to the microphone and pouted. "I don't want to go. I haven't had enough fun."She was whining like a sulking brat.Jayden's breath caught in his throat. He had never seen her like this before, and the others weren't allowed to witness this side of her either. He wrapped his arm around her waist. "How about I take you somewhere else to have fun
Jayden's heart was aching so much he felt like he couldn't breathe. He held Camilla and patted her back, trying to soothe her emotions."It's okay. You don't have to force yourself to remember," Jayden said in a hoarse voice.Camilla looked pitiful, her eyes teary. Her eyes were starting to swell. Eventually, she fell asleep in Jayden's arms.Jayden kissed her eyes gently, his gaze filled with affection. He lifted her and carried her to the bedroom....The next day.Camilla opened her eyes, feeling uncomfortable with how swollen her eyes were. Her head was aching too. She sat up in bed, finding the room empty.Camilla got out of bed and went to freshen up. Just then, her phone started ringing. She grabbed her phone and saw it was a call from Kylie."Hello?" Camilla answered the phone."Camilla, Jayden didn't do anything to you last night, did he?" Kylie asked worriedly.Camilla paused. "Last night ... what time did I come home? Did Jayden come looking for me?""You do
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
