"Wow!" Margot gave Tamara a look of amazement. "Your family's genes are something else."However, Tamara shook her head. "It varies from person to person. Quentin is also my mother's son. And look at how he turned out?"Margot immediately waved her hand. "Let's not talk about that asshole on this good day, okay?"Tamara smiled faintly. "Alright."After finishing their ice cream, the two of them went downstairs. Tamara continued to mix the drinks. After preparing three drinks, she and Margot walked around to inspect the club.With the experience from her previous life, Margot didn't panic this time, and she skillfully assigned tasks to different people at various places.Listening to the events of the past two days, Tamara had a smile in her eyes. "After things stabilize here, you can consider opening a branch in Clacton."Margot blinked at her. "Can I just say? I did open a branch in Clacton in my past life. However, both of us started the club together. But I left Clacton not l
Natasha wasn't angry and maintained her smile. "I don't really like Benjamin. Naturally, Margot and I are not rivals."Tamara quirked an eyebrow and glanced at Margot. When had they gotten this close to each other? Natasha was even calling Margot by her name.Margot was also taken aback, not expecting Natasha to be so casual with her. But names were meant to be used, and it would seem unreasonable to forbid Natasha from calling her by her name at this point.Tamara knew what Margot was thinking about and smiled. "What type of men do you prefer, Ms. Gunn?"Natasha replied seriously, "I haven't met one I like yet. I'll let you know when I do."Tamara fell silent. There was no need for that.Tamara's initial wary gradually faded away. From their simple conversation, it was evident that Natasha wasn't the type to approach Margot with ulterior motives.Before long, the waiter brought the drinks.Margot poured three glasses. She put one in front of Tamara and one in front of Natash
Natasha's expression froze, and she immediately shook her head. "No."Tamara seemed to have seen right through her. She smirked and didn't say anything further.Natasha stood up abruptly. "Margot, you don't need to arrange transport for me. My driver is waiting outside."Margot turned to her. "Really?"Natasha nodded. "Yes, I'll be on my way. Let's meet another day."With that, she hurried out.Margot couldn't help but frown at her departing figure. "What's going on? Why does it look like she's running away?"Tamara patted her arm and warned, "Margot, you should keep your distance from her."Margot tilted her head. "Did you figure something out?"Tamara nodded. Her face was flushed, and her eyes seemed a bit dazed. But her words brought Margot back to her senses immediately. "Natasha likes you."Margot widened her eyes in disbelief. "Are you serious? She likes me?"How was that even possible? She had lived two lifetimes and had never encountered such a thing!Tamara closed
The barbecue restaurant came alive at night, and it was packed like sardines inside. Margot and Benjamin chose the seat in the corner. The air here was thick with the aroma from the barbecue, making one's mouth water. The waiter brought the menu. "Please write down your order." With that, the waiter rushed off to attend to other tables.Margot took the menu and looked through it carefully. When she looked up, she saw Benjamin gazing intently at her, his charming eyes filled with affection. She felt butterflies in her stomach. It felt like a dream, a beautiful fairytale, making people yearn for them. Margot's gaze softened at him. "What's up?"Benjamin smiled. "I really like our current life." He was extremely content to spend his days by her side, making her smile.Margot, however, huffed. "It's fine if you enjoy it, but don't get too addicted to it. Barbecue isn't something you can eat every day. It's not good for your health."Benjamin fell silent.He was trying to fli
Margot was caught off guard. Nevertheless, she clung to his arm and whined, "It's still three days away. I really want to have some now."Benjamin remained firm. "No."Margot blinked, trying to look pitiful, but it didn't work. She deflated like a balloon and pouted.Benjamin glanced at her, and his heart softened. But he forcibly averted his gaze. For her well-being, he had to make her quit ice cream.They returned to Windsong Mansion 15 minutes later. Margot went to her room to take a shower. When she came out, she saw Benjamin standing on the balcony, talking on the phone and giving instructions.Margot walked over quietly and embraced him from behind.Benjamin held her hand and spoke into the phone, "That's all for now."After hanging up, he pulled her in front of him and leaned down to kiss her. "What's wrong?" Margot asked, "What was the call about?"Benjamin smirked. "I've just checked the contents of the USB drive. Lance has been in contact with a foreign business par
Margot nodded, excitement gleaming in her eyes. "I'm really looking forward to seeing Lance's fall."Benjamin gently ruffled her hair. "Then, let us enjoy the show together.""Okay!" Margot nodded enthusiastically.The two of them boarded a plane to Rastone. Three hours later, they arrived. As the sun gradually set, the sky was painted with an orange glow. It was a sight to behold.Upon leaving the airport, they got into a car. Margot, feeling exhausted, snuggled into Benjamin's arms. She asked with half-lidded eyes, "How much longer until we get there?"Benjamin pecked her forehead. "It will be another hour. Take a nap if you're tired."Margot adjusted in her seat. "Alright."She closed her eyes and began to doze off.Benjamin looked at her with affection. His eyes were filled with tenderness.Harris was the one driving. He glanced in the rearview mirror and spoke in a hushed tone, "Mr. Inkling, we've prepared a manor here."Benjamin shushed him and gave him a stern look.H
Benjamin's feelings for Margot seemed to have deepened.After dinner, they sat in the greenhouse, gazing at the night sky. In the distance, the castle was faintly visible and looked like a scene straight out of a fairytale.Margot took out her phone to take a picture. "I really love it here. Let's visit the castle tomorrow."Benjamin sat in his chair, watching her excited expression. He smiled faintly, and a sly glint flashed in his eyes. "Tomorrow?"Margot looked at him. "When else would we go?"Benjamin shrugged. "I was just thinking that going so soon might take away the anticipation."Margot looked at him in confusion. "We're already here. Are you planning to bring me there on our last day here?"Benjamin stared back at her. "Do you really want to go?"Margot nodded. "Yes."Benjamin smirked. "You can do better than that."His voice grew lower and more sensual. His charming eyes locked onto hers as if he was enticing her.Margot's eyes shone, and she returned a seductive
The next day, when Margot emerged from her room, she noticed that Benjamin had also just exited his. She smiled. "Good morning, Mr. Inkling."Benjamin gazed deeply at her. He walked over and clasped the back of her head, kissing her hard.Margot was pushed up against the wall by him. She panted from the kisses. "What's wrong?"Benjamin's lips rubbed against hers, his voice hoarse. "Weren't you scared last night?"Margot bit back a laugh. "No. I could survive living alone in an orphanage. What's there to be afraid of here?"Her fingers clutched his clothes, and she stared up at him. "What's wrong? Were you expecting me to get scared and crawl into your bed in the middle of the night?" She dragged out her last few words, teasing him. Benjamin's breath hitched, and he cleared his throat. "Are you hungry?"Margot burst into laughter. Why was he so easily provoked? He couldn't even handle a couple of teases. She needed to train him."Yes." Margot nodded.Benjamin suggested, "L
