After giving the driver the destination, Benjamin turned to Margot. He keenly sensed that something was off with her. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"Margot nodded. "A little."Benjamin immediately grew concerned. "What's wrong? Where does it hurt?" He anxiously examined her, not missing any of her expressions.Margot suddenly giggled. "It's almost that time of the month, so I'm not feeling well."Benjamin fell silent. A suspicious blush tinged his ear as he cleared his throat. He instructed the driver, "Pull over at the supermarket ahead."The driver complied. "Yes."Margot was puzzled. "Why are we stopping?"Benjamin looked at her. "If you're uncomfortable sitting down, you can lie down on my lap."Margot blinked. Although she didn't quite understand, she still reclined.Since he offered, how could she refuse?His hand gently touched her face. "You can take a nap if you want."Margot huffed. "I'm not sleepy."Benjamin hummed.Even though it was evening, the sum
"Thank you, sweetheart!" Margot smiled at him and took a sip of the hot chocolate.Benjamin's breath hitched, and his charming eyes sparkled with a hint of joy. He liked it when she called him that!Back in the car, he asked, "Do you want me to accompany you to the club now?"Margot shook her head. "No, let's go home first. I want to spend some time with you, just the two of us." She winked at him.Benjamin nodded. "Okay." He instructed the driver, "Back to Windsong Mansion."The driver complied. Soon, the car arrived at their destination and stopped at the underground parking lot. Margot and Benjamin got out of the car.Back in their house, Margot immediately hugged Benjamin and kissed his neck. However, Benjamin huffed. "Don't fool around. You're not feeling well. Go lie down on the bed.""Will you stay with me?" Margot clung to him and gazed up at him lovingly.Benjamin's breath grew heavier, and he carried her to the bedroom. He placed her on the bed and lay down besi
Benjamin felt helpless. He always had a soft spot for her."Just this once." He pecked her forehead.Margot nodded. "I knew you were the best!"Benjamin was smitten.As time passed, night fell, and the city came alive with the glow of lights as the bustling nightlife began.When the room was bathed in the neon light from outside, Margot's phone rang. She looked at the caller ID, and her expression shifted. She answered the call. Benjamin, noticing her reaction, also looked at her.It was the manager from the sixth floor. He said softly, "Ms. Zimmerman, the guest surnamed Zimmerman has arrived.""I see." Margot hummed and promptly hung up.She turned around and went to Benjamin, giving him one last kiss. "I have to go. Stay home and wait for me."Benjamin, however, held her by the neck and deepened the kiss. After a passionate moment, their breaths grew erratic."I'll escort you there," he said hoarsely. He couldn't bear to let her go alone.Margot hesitated but nodded. "Alri
Margot stared at the familiar face, and her breath hitched. She still remembered how he had looked when he died in her past life. His death had led to Andrew's anger. Eventually, Benjamin was the one who had to bear all the consequences.A suppressed feeling of hatred surged from the depths of her heart. She had to use all her strength to push down her emotions.Margot smiled. "Hello, Mr. Zimmerman. I'm Margot Zimmerman."Eric's gaze was icy as he looked at her. He coldly hissed, "Sit."Margot didn't hesitate and sat down on the couch opposite him. "Mr. Zimmerman, did you come from the island?"She was straight to the point.Eric gave her a surprise glance. "You seem to know quite a bit about that place."Margot shook her head. "Certainly not as much as you do."He gave her a cold look. "Tell me, how do you know about Gwenda?"Margot offered a small smile. "I have my sources. But I'm curious why Andrew hung up on me."Eric's expression hardened, making the scar on his face lo
Andrew knew Gwenda well, but why would he abandon her just because of some scheme? Did he know how difficult Gwenda's life had become since he left?At that moment, Margot changed her mind. She didn't want to reunite with Andrew anymore. She decided to approach Nammu Bay differently."Mr. Zimmerman, if I wasn't close to her, how could I possibly know about her?" Margot said nonchalantly.Andrew remained silent for a moment. "What do you know?"Margot scoffed. "Do you doubt my words? Then, let me tell you one thing. When you escaped to Londsville, it was Gwenda who saved you. She brought you home to heal your injuries. "Later, when you found out she was a performer at some bar, you asked her to resign and leave with you, but she didn't agree …""That's enough!" Andrew interrupted her before she could finish. These events were all true!Who was this woman? And how did she know these details? After Gwenda betrayed him all those years ago, he killed everyone she knew. He had even
Margot didn't wait for his response. "I have the king of cursed bugs."Andrew grew even more shocked! The king of cursed bugs!It was an existence that could make all cursed bugs worship it. With the king of cursed bugs, one would be invulnerable to all poisons. With the king of cursed bugs in hand, the Lane family would be nothing. They could easily defeat them!After a while, Andrew's voice came through. "How did you get it, Ms. Zimmerman?"Margot huffed. "I need to keep that a secret. What if you find out and decide to silence me?"She was blunt. Even though they were only talking on the phone, Andrew's expression stiffened. Lucky for him, Margot couldn't see his reaction.Nevertheless, he was seriously considering Margot's proposal.As long as he had full control of Nammu Bay, he could do whatever he pleased.Margot asked, "So, Mr. Zimmerman, do you think I'm qualified?"Andrew stated, "You're welcome to join us. But, I have to warn you, Ms. Zimmerman. Nammu Bay is very di
What a coincidence. Margot didn't expect Joseph to be there.Tamara walked over and held Margot's hand. "Joseph also just arrived. It's quite a coincidence for you to come one after the other."Joseph smiled faintly. "Is Ms. Zimmerman here to play with Tammy?""Yes." Margot nodded.She turned to Tamara. "Shall we go to your room?"Tamara nodded. "Sure."She glanced at Joseph. "Joseph, you can entertain yourself."Joseph gave her a blank stare. Were they going to leave him behind just like that?He didn't want to join the two girls anyway. So, he didn't argue with them.Once they were in Tamara's room, Margot asked, "Where's Aunt Alex?""My mom is still in the lab," Tamara said. "Don't worry. Just wait here for a while."Margot nodded. "Well, I'm not in a hurry. I also have something to discuss with you and Aunt Alex. Let's wait for her here."Tamara tilted her head in confusion. "Did you meet with the people from Nammu Bay?""Yes." Margot nodded.Tamara immediately aske
Margot didn't realize Joseph's oddity. "Come, let's start another round!"Joseph quickly started another round of the game, effectively putting an end to the awkward topic. They played another three rounds of games, with Tamara leading the way throughout. As long as Tamara was there, they didn't need to do anything. All they needed to do was wait for Tamara to end the opponents.Alex knocked on the door and walked in. She immediately saw how engrossed the three of them were in the game. "I never thought you three would have a common hobby.""Aunt Alex." Just as the round ended, Joseph put away his phone and smiled at Alex. "I have something I want to discuss with you. Are you done with your work?"Alex nodded. "Yes. Come with me."Joseph responded, "Sure."He turned to Tamara and Margot. "Continue without me. I have to talk to Aunt Alex for a bit."Tamara nodded. "Okay."Margot waved at him. "See you later, Joseph."Margot used to call Joseph by his last name, but Joseph fou
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
