Camilla giggled at Tamara's words. It was enough to ease the tense atmosphere.Tamara continued the acupuncture calmly. "Master and I are researching this illness as well. Whenever Master encounters these complex cases, he becomes completely engrossed in them. I believe we'll soon find a cure.""I trust both of you," Camilla declared.She had great faith in George's medical skills. After all, it was he who developed the treatment for her condition.Ultimately, Jayden's illness was caused by a cursed bug. All they needed to do was find a way to deal with the bacteria."Alright, it will be done in a while." Tamara inserted the last needle. She let out a sigh of relief and couldn't resist touching Camilla's soft and beautiful skin. "Oh my, Jayden is so lucky."A blush crept onto Camilla's face, and she rolled her eyes at Tamara. "Isn't Sebastian lucky too?"Tamara waved her hand dismissively. "We've been married for ages. Our three children have also grown up. It's not as passion
Camilla replied calmly, "I like working here."Simon chuckled. "Do you like working here, or do you like the owner of this place?"Camilla studied him. She sighed in relief when she saw the teasing look he was giving her. She nodded. "You're right. I do like the owner of this place."Simon sighed helplessly. "Are we really going to continue this shallow conversation?"Camilla gave him an innocent look. "But you started it."Simon chuckled before getting to the point. "I came here something to discuss with you. It's about Jayden's illness."Camilla grew tense at this. She stared at him. "Do you have a way to save him?"Simon shrugged. "I'm not sure if you can call this a cure. I found out about Tanya's illness when I was looking into her files. I looked into it and found that her illness resulted from some mutated virus from cursed bugs, and it originated from Nammu Bay."Camilla furrowed her brows. "But Nammu Bay doesn't exist anymore.""Is that so?" Simon gave her a toothy gr
Once Simon entered the manor, the lights flickered to life. He led Camilla to the basement.The basement was spacious. The rows of cabinets displayed various bottles and containers. At a glance, it resembled some kind of laboratory.Camilla looked around and playfully commented, "I was your assistant once. How come I never know about this secret base of yours?"Simon glanced at her. "Since it's a secret base, of course I'm the only one to know about it."Camilla fought the urge to roll her eyes.Simon walked over to a particular bottle and picked it up. "This is it."Camilla lowered her eyes and saw a bottle containing some soil and plants. A small white creature the size of a grain of rice crawled around the leaves.The tiny bug was so small that it could be crushed easily.Camilla's eyes lit up.Simon handed her the bottle. "You can extract the sample first.""Okay." Camilla nodded and opened the bottle. She carefully extracted a tiny sample of the creature before returning
It was dark outside. Camilla leaned against the wall and smiled in relief.Suddenly, a noise came from the entrance. She turned her gaze toward the door and saw Jayden entering.Camilla was shocked. "Why are you out of the hospital?"Jayden observed her closely. "You promised to have dinner with me."Camilla froze. Countless emotions swirled within her.She slowly approached him before pulling him into a hug.Jayden instinctively hugged her back. His warm breath tickled her ear as he asked, "What's wrong?""Jayden, I'm close to a breakthrough." Camilla's voice trembled.Jayden's breath hitched. "Congratulations."Camilla closed her eyes and tightened her hold on him.Jayden sensed the change in her emotions, and a gentle smile played on his lips.Suddenly, Camilla released him. She gave him a displeased look. "So, you haven't eaten anything until now?"Jayden nodded guiltily. "Yes, I've been waiting for you."Camilla punched his arm. "Why are you like this? Jayden, you d
Camilla paused. She wasn't expecting Jayden to say that. Were they really like an ordinary couple?Camilla swept her gaze across the restaurant. Indeed, several couples sat at other tables, chatting and smiling happily.Camilla turned back to Jayden. "So, you long for this kind of life?""Yes." Jayden nodded.Camilla hummed in acknowledgment. "The Moore family won't object if you choose this kind of life, right?"Jayden sighed helplessly. "But I still need to make a living, right? How else will I support the family? I don't want to rely on others."So, he chose to establish a research institute. It even became one of the world's top research institutions.Camilla felt speechless. She seemed to have misunderstood his notion of an ordinary couple. It appeared different from her understanding.She giggled. "Then, once you're better, we can return to an ordinary life. I'll let you experience what true simplicity is."Jayden nodded. "Alright."The aroma of food filled the air. C
Nathan stared at Camilla and understood what she wanted to say. He averted his gaze and nodded. "I understand."Camilla smiled and stood up. "Well, it's getting quite late. You should rest, and I need to go home too.""Alright." Nathan nodded again and watched her leave the ward.Camilla gently closed the door behind her. Thinking about Nathan's disappointment, she grew concerned. However, Jayden was right. She couldn't let Nathan become overly dependent on her. At 14 years old, he was already a teenager with mature thoughts and sensitivity. He needed to explore the outside world and interact with more people. Fortunately, his health was improving, and he would be discharged in a few days. Jayden's condition was also headed in a positive direction. Thinking of these things, a sense of relief washed over Camilla. Everything was moving in a good direction.Returning to Jayden's ward, she saw him staring at his watch. He looked like he would rush over and drag her back when the
Camilla pondered for a moment. "I can help you come up with a solution. I just need to make sure she doesn't appear in front of you, right?"Simon suddenly chuckled. "Marriage seems to have made your boundaries more defined."Camilla nodded. "I've grown weary of all the misunderstandings."Simon chuckled. "Alright, as long as you achieve the goal."Camilla breathed a sigh of relief. "You can revert to your former ways. With your long history of ex-girlfriends and countless ex-fiancées, going back to your old self might deter Kylie."Simon cocked a brow. "That's not a bad idea."Camilla looked at him. "So, can you give me the cursed bug now?"Simon shook his head. "You have to wait until I succeed. I'll personally bring the bug to you once I do."With that, he got up and left.Camilla fell silent.She furrowed her brows. She didn't understand what Simon was up to.Simon had already left the café, but Camilla wasn't in a hurry to leave. Instead, she quietly finished her coffee
Jayden and Nathan were sitting on the couch inside the manor's living room. Jenna was having a pleasant chat with them."Jayden, how are you doing? Will you be discharged soon?" Jenna's voice was gentle and carried a hint of concern.Jayden responded warmly, "Thank you for your concern, Mom. I'm fine now. It's just that Camilla was worried and asked me to stay a few more days."Jenna nodded. "That's a good decision. It's better to recover first before leaving the hospital. It will save a lot of worries.""You're right." Jayden nodded.Camilla walked in and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you all here?"Both Jayden and Nathan turned their gaze toward her. They both looked calm, but their eyes held an indescribable resentment."How could we not join you when you're having a family dinner at home?" Jayden stood up and walked toward her. He bent down to peck her cheek.Camilla was embarrassed and playfully pushed him away. "Mom's watching us."Jenna chuckled. "I'll go to the kitch
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
