Benjamin smiled. His face shone with adoration as he said, "In my eyes, you're just a lazy little pig."Margot glared at him in annoyance. "Let's go to the Inkling manor tonight. Grandpa Shane must be missing you."Benjamin's brows furrowed with reluctance. However, he didn't refuse when he saw Margot's bright eyes. "Okay."He had promised Shane before, but it was delayed the last time. This time, he must keep his promise.After lunch, Margot continued to stay in the rest area. She wouldn't disturb Benjamin when he was working, but Benjamin would occasionally come in to check on what she was doing.Seeing her playing games on her phone, Benjamin asked, "Why do you always play this game? Is it fun?"Margot nodded. "It is."As if recalling something, she hurriedly added, "Invest in this game studio quickly. There are already quite a few users. Once the company starts promoting it, it will definitely make a lot of money!"Watching her eyes light up, Benjamin nodded. "Okay, whateve
"Alright, I won't argue with you. What do you want for dinner? Let the kitchen know if you're craving for anything." Shane's anger quickly faded from his face.Benjamin shrugged. "Nothing. I'm fine with anything."Shane chuckled. "You talk as if you're easy to take care of."Benjamin cocked an eyebrow, "Am I not easy to take care of?"Shane immediately retorted, "I've never seen a child as picky as you. You don't eat onions, coriander, fatty meat, or seafood. Tell me, what exactly do you eat?"Benjamin argued, "You call that being picky? Old man, are you deliberately exposing my flaws?"Shane snorted. "I want to let Margot know the kind of person you are!"Margot watched with a smile. She could sense that Benjamin had indeed grown closer to Shane, and Shane's words confirmed that he cared for Benjamin. Otherwise, how could he remember Benjamin's likes and dislikes?This was great! The banter between the two continued for a while. Soon, a maid came over. "Mr. Shane, Mr. Benjam
Margot glanced at Benjamin, but he continued to eat as if nothing happened.She couldn't help but laugh. Was he that hell-bent on ignoring Victoria?Victoria couldn't pose any real threat now. She just wanted to show goodwill. It was evident that Benjamin didn't want to accept it. Seeing that they completely ignored her, Victoria couldn't help but feel a bit resentful. After all, she was the mistress of the Inkling family, and the Inkling family held a prominent position in Londsville. Everyone would rush to flatter and fawn over her whenever she went out. She had never been ignored before. However, she couldn't do anything about it. They held the upper hand, and all she and Lance could do was endure. Their opponents held the leverage, and they could only behave cautiously.Lance wanted to leave. He couldn't tolerate being treated like this. After all, he was also a son of the Inkling family. How could he endure such humiliation?However, Victoria insisted on staying until they
Benjamin could only feel how small and soft Margot's hand was. The pinch didn't hurt, and it was more like a tickle.He smiled devilishly. "I don't dare to. I won't do it again."He was quick to surrender.Margot withdrew her hand, and the two left the Inkling manor together.Sitting in the car and looking at the scenery outside, a hint of melancholy flashed in Margot's eyes.Thinking about her imminent departure and the possibility that Benjamin might forget her, she felt a bit uneasy. Would Benjamin still be as eager to pursue her upon her return?But it didn't matter. Even if he didn't pursue her, she would find her way to him.Benjamin, seeing her lost in thought, piped up, "What are you thinking about?"Margot merely replied him with another question. "Can you accompany me to the amusement park tomorrow?"Benjamin nodded. "Of course."Margot smiled. "You've been busy these past few days. Besides, we haven't been to the amusement park together."Benjamin looked at her
How could Benjamin not have thought about it? He had even thought about more outrageous things. However, he was afraid of scaring Margot, so he had to endure it. He wanted to take the final step when they got married.Benjamin's eyes flickered. Then, he smiled and said, "Margot, won't you be a good girl and listen to me?"Despite his words, his voice carried a tender tone. It was as if he aimed to melt her with its warmth.Margot surrendered. She wasn't his match. She decided to drop the idea. There was no rush, after all. After she dealt with her matters, she would come back and get married to him. Then, they could do whatever they wanted openly after that."I want to watch a superhero movie." Margot walked over and nestled in his arms."Sure." Benjamin hugged her and kissed her on the cheek. He quickly found the movie she wanted to watch.The room dimmed, leaving only the flickering images on the TV screen, reflecting the expressions of the two—intimate and dependent....
Margot looked at Benjamin and whispered, "It's a good opportunity for you to learn how to take photos."Benjamin fell silent. He looked at her with a half-smile. "So, you just need a boyfriend who knows how to take photos?""No," Margot immediately clarified. "I just need you. So, it doesn't matter if you can take photos or not. Of course, it's good to pick up an extra skill. And it's better if you can take good photos."Benjamin pouted. Margot certainly had a way with words."Come on, let's go on the roller coaster!" Margot pulled Benjamin toward the direction of the roller coaster.Benjamin's mouth twitched uncontrollably. Was it a good idea to play something so thrilling right after coming in?"Margot, do you want some tea?" Benjamin asked as they approached the area with the roller coaster.Margot glanced at him and suddenly nodded. "Sure, let's have some tea. You go buy it for me.""Okay." Benjamin turned around and went to buy the tea.Margot couldn't help but laugh at h
Benjamin was puzzled. "Margot, aren't we going on the roller coaster?"Margot shook her head. "I suddenly don't want to play anymore. Let's go on the swing ride."Benjamin's expression stiffened for a moment. He glanced at the swing ride in the distance, where people were sitting in a circle, swinging back and forth, and even rotating 360 degrees.It seemed less thrilling than the roller coaster.But looking at her anxious appearance, Benjamin decided not to say anything.It wasn't until they crossed the bridge and left that area that Margot turned around, relieved to see that the two people she was worried about hadn't followed them."What happened?" came Benjamin's concerned voice. Margot lied, "It's nothing. I just suddenly didn't want to play. I thought it was too dangerous."Benjamin looked at her for a moment. "Isn't the swing ride dangerous too?"Margot fell silent. Well, everything here seemed dangerous.But if she didn't come up with a reasonable explanation, Benjam
The driver looked for a place where he could cling to. It was really terrifying!Margot looked around at the pitch-black environment. There was a cold and chilly wind blowing from somewhere. "It's scary."Margot nodded forcefully. "Let's go back out instead of going further in."Benjamin chuckled, and he patted her back. Then, he turned around and walked out of the haunted house.The driver followed suit.Once outside, both Margot and the driver felt as if they had come back to life."Phew ..." Margot came down from Benjamin and couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you scared?"Benjamin smiled. "It's all fake. What is there to be afraid of?"Margot wanted to say something but ultimately held back.Although it was all fake, the eerie atmosphere was good. It made their minds run wild, automatically thinking of scenes from horror movies.Margot shrugged. "Let's go and check out other things, like the pirate ship."Benjamin nodded. "Sure."The other attractions dispelled the thrill b
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
