The onlookers in the cafeteria couldn't believe their eyes. Benjamin was the oldest son of the Inkling family! He had always been highly regarded, accustomed to having everything handed to him on a silver platter. He had never personally queued for food.In the past, it was his dormitory mates who fetched food for him. Yet now, he was queuing himself!Everyone's gaze fell on Margot. The guys immediately understood when they saw the beautiful young girl sitting there.With a face like hers, they'd do anything for her!The girls, on the other hand, felt angry. They thought Margot looked like a beggar and believed she was with Benjamin for his money.Margot glanced in their direction and saw Benjamin standing out among the crowd. This was the man she liked!Margot propped her chin up with her hand and smiled at Benjamin.Just then, a familiar figure appeared behind Benjamin. This person wore a cold expression and exuded an icy vibe. Everyone fell silent when he walked out.Margo
Margot tensed. She didn't expect to be caught peeking. She felt embarrassed and quickly said, "I wasn't looking at anything."Sebastian's icy gaze focused on her for a moment before he turned to Benjamin. "Keep your woman in check."With that, he picked up his empty tray and left.Benjamin looked at Margot. "Why were you staring at him just now?"Margot stammered, "I just wanted to introduce him to someone ...""What?" Benjamin looked surprised by her response. He suddenly burst into laughter. "I just said he would have a hard time finding a wife with that personality. Are you trying to set him up because you're afraid he won't find one in the future?"Margot snickered. "I was just joking around. Don't take it seriously, and don't tell him either."Benjamin smiled at her, "You have interesting thoughts.""Forget it." Margot dismissed the idea. She decided to let things unfold naturally. If Tamara didn't want any involvement with Sebastian, forcing them together would only mak
Margot returned home and leaned against the door. She recalled the scene from earlier, and a faint blush crept up on her. She cupped her cheeks in embarrassment. Then, something dawned on her. Was this the joy of teasing a man? Why didn't she flirt with Benjamin earlier in her past life? He was such a fun guy to tease! Benjamin was an experienced player in her previous life, and she couldn't measure up to him. But now, Benjamin was still pure and innocent. Margot was filled with anticipation for the future.She quickly poured herself a glass of water to cool down her racing thoughts. She sat on the couch and took out her phone. She noticed Benjamin had just sent her a text.It read, "Miss you."Margot giggled at this. They had only been apart for a few minutes. Did he have to be so clingy? She suppressed her laughter and sent back a kiss emoji.However, Benjamin didn't immediately reply after she sent the emoji. Margot didn't mind. He was probably driving.She placed h
Alex's face was filled with excitement and happiness. She was the only one whose emotions mirrored Tamara's.Margot calmly withdrew her gaze and said to Tamara, "This is great! You can speak and live a normal life now."She hadn't expected Tamara's recovery to happen so quickly.Tamara nodded. "Thank you, Margot."She didn't have to say anything else. They both knew exactly what she meant.Margot asked, "Didn't you meet your grandmother and uncle? Where are they now?"Tamara smiled. "They are staying at a hotel."Margot nodded. "What's the next move?"Before Tamara could answer, a cold gaze fell on Margot. She shivered unconsciously.Jacob looked at her. "Ms. Zimmerman, are you free right now? I'd like to talk to you in private."Margot felt a hint of hostility coming from him. But she was prepared for this. After she arrived here, Tamara exhibited many strange behaviors, including the sudden recovery of her voice. Jacob was a smart man. He would definitely be suspicious.
Jacob stared at Margot coldly with his sharp gaze.Margot found herself shaking uncontrollably. Jacob exuded an overwhelming sense of power and presence. But at the same time, she couldn't help but feel puzzled. If Jacob was this powerful, how did he end up in such a miserable state in his past life? Why was he driven to the point of suicide?Margot couldn't comprehend it. But, of course, this wasn't the right time to dwell on that.Jacob looked at her for a moment, and his expression suddenly softened. "I don't care what you know. But if you ever hurt my family, I'll hunt you down."It was a stern warning. Yet, Margot breathed a sigh of relief. "I will never hurt Tammy."But Quentin was a different story. He was a jerk.However, this only made her even more confused. Jacob was powerful, and Alex was smart. How did they end up with someone like Quentin? Was he not their biological son?The thought crossed her mind, but she immediately dismissed it.Quentin looked exactly like
"What's wrong?" Margot noticed Tamara's disappointment and asked in confusion.Tamara sighed. "My father won't allow me to go out."Margot huffed. "That was in the past. He used to prevent you from going out because he was afraid someone might take advantage of you. But things are different now. You can speak now! So you won't be mistreated. I'm sure he'll let you go out."Hope sparkled in Tamara's eyes. "Really?"Margot held her hand. "We won't know unless we give it a try."With that, she led Tamara out of the room and headed downstairs."Where are you going?" Just then, Quentin's displeased voice sounded.Tamara froze, and Margot turned to Quentin with an annoyed look. "Why do you care? Why are you so nosy?"Quentin's face fell. "Are you taking her out? We won't allow that. She's mute. Are you trying to embarrass the Simmons family by taking her out?"Margot narrowed her eyes dangerously at him. "You should shut the fuck up if you don't have anything nice to say. Didn't you
Margot was glad to see the smile on Tamara's face. Margot couldn't help but wonder what if none of the events of the past had occurred. In that case, Tamara wouldn't have had to endure so much hardship and could have lived a carefree life. Margot let out a sigh, realizing that they were just "what-ifs.""Margot," just then, a familiar voice rang out. Margot turned around and saw Benjamin standing behind her, with the aloof Sebastian beside him.Margot was surprised. "You're still at school?"Benjamin cocked an eyebrow. "Are you not here for me?"Margot suddenly felt guilty and awkwardly scratched her nose. She decided to be honest. "Actually, no."Benjamin's face fell. "So you're not here for me?"He sounded like he would have a breakdown if Margot nodded to his question."Margot." Just then, Tamara walked over. She cast Benjamin a curious look. "Is he your boyfriend?"An idea suddenly occurred to Margot. "I went to Tammy's house this afternoon, and she found out that I w
Not wanting to appear too childish, Benjamin immediately put on a stern face and followed Margot in silence.Sebastian suddenly spoke up, "I'm leaving."Benjamin immediately grabbed him. "Don't go. It will be boring with just me around."Sebastian shrugged. "That's your problem. You can leave too."Benjamin looked at him in disbelief. "Seb, seriously, don't you want a girlfriend?"Sebastian sneered at him. "Why have you become so disgusting after getting into a relationship?"Benjamin was shocked. "Disgusting? Just wait until you're in a relationship. I'll make sure you'll eat your own words."Sebastian scoffed.Benjamin gritted his teeth. "In any case, you can't leave."Sebastian glanced at Benjamin's hand. "Let go."Benjamin, still gritting his teeth, reluctantly released his grip. He sighed in relief when Sebastian made no move to leave.His gaze fell on the two girls ahead. It seemed like they had long forgotten about Benjamin and Sebastian.Benjamin pouted sadly.At t
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
