After everything had finally settled down, Curtis didn't want to leave her side for a single moment.Otherwise, he would always feel uneasy and worry that her condition might relapse.He could only be rest assured going to work after spending some time with her to make sure she was alright.Margot was deeply moved.It seemed like Curtis had changed a lot.He was much better now compared to the first six months of their marriage.She was quite happy to have him by her side all the time, so she didn't urge him to go to work.As they came downstairs with Louis, Lena happened to be coming down as well. They all went to the dining room and sat down.At this moment, there were five people in the Crosby residence, along with a baby in swaddling clothes and two nannies.There weren't even any bodyguards or gardeners left.The staff who used to live in the Crosby residence and were reluctant to leave all moved out after the Crosby family had an incident.Only occasionally during holi
Curtis looked at Gabriel and noticed how he was staring intently at Natalie, who was smiling and walking toward them. Feeling a mix of emotions, he sympathetically patted his friend's shoulder and said, "Stop looking, she's already someone else's wife."Gabriel finally came to his senses and looked away.He was feeling down, so he came over to spend time with Curt.He did not expect to meet his ex-wife here.Originally, he was fine with seeing her, but thinking about her getting married to Calvin soon made him feel quite upset."Curt, do you think I'm a failure? I'm already middle-aged, my family is a mess, and my ex-wife and son are with someone else."As he spoke, a hint of sorrow appeared in his eyes.Curtis felt very sympathetic toward Gabriel's situation and tried to comfort them by saying, "You can't say it like that. At least you still have something to offer. It's just that you're unwilling to let go of the past and stubbornly believe she'll come back."Gabriel, let her
Gabriel denied it, and said, "I told you, I've moved on.""Stop always focusing on what others are doing, Gabriel. That person is now married, and as the saying goes, a friend's wife is off-limits. Don't do anything foolish."Gabriel was really annoyed and stopped in his tracks to glare at Curtis."Are you done yet? Even if I wanted to, do you think she would go along with it? Natalie isn't that kind of person."Curtis teased him. "What if she's willing? Would you be a homewrecker then?"Gabriel suddenly fell silent, his eyes flickering.Being a homewrecker even when he knew the situation?He definitely would not refuse it if Natalie was willing.But...Natalie, who had always been rational, wouldn't agree to it.There was a hint of sadness in his eyes again. Even though he knew Natalie well, he adjusted his mindset and walked toward her.Curtis shook his head helplessly and followed behind.Natalie didn't expect to see Gabriel here.While she was taking pictures with Marg
If they had truly loved each other, they would wish each other the best.Gabriel felt incredibly touched when he heard Natalie expressing her concern for him.He nodded with red eyes."Okay, sure. I'll make an effort to find a woman who is right for me to marry."Natalie saw that he was finally willing to let go, and smiled while opening her arms wide.She said, "Well then... let's have a hug. Let go of the past and if we meet again in the future, let's just be friends."Gabriel was surprised. As he stepped forward to hug her, tears rolled down his cheeks.He knew that Natalie truly considered him a friend, which was why she was so open and straightforward.From now on, he would no longer have any unrealistic ambitions.He would give her his blessing to be with Calvin.He would also agree to go on blind dates arranged by his parents.Gabriel wiped away the tears from his eyes, then willingly let go of the woman in his arms and smiled at her."Go back and tell your husband t
"Natalie, did you know? Lena's instructor is Sabrina's father, Branden."Natalie was surprised. "Your instructor is Branden?"Lena nodded."What are the chances?""I don't know either, but it's not like I have a crush on the instructor. He already has a five-year-old kid. Could you all stop teasing me, please?Besides, I am still young and need to focus on my studies. Those men are either seven or eight years older than me, or even more than ten years older.I'm going to the university to find some young and attractive guys, ideally around my age, so there won't be any generation gap."Anthony was a jerk. He was not just overbearing and arrogant, but also a male chauvinist, insisting that she did everything his way.She would not simply obey him; after she went to university, she would find her ideal partner on her own.......In the kitchen, Curtis watched the energetic and bustling Gabriel with a mix of amusement and exasperation."Gabriel, it's still early. If you're hung
Anthony didn't want to argue with Lena.The fact that Margot could wake up was due to his effective hypnosis technique.The reason why she remembered everything and didn't forget the painful moments might be because he made a mistake."I don't want to bring this up again," Anthony said, and added, "Everything is fine now, so please don't be upset with me because of this. I'll drive over to the Crosby residence to pick you up shortly, and then we can go out to eat something delicious."Even though he didn't complete the task Regina assigned him, she couldn't stop him from being with Lena.He should actively seek his own happiness rather than leaving everything up to the other person.Given Lena's personality, if he didn't take the initiative to reach out to her, she probably would never think of reaching out to him on her own."I'm not going."Lena was stubborn, and she said, "Even if Margot is better now, it doesn't change the selfishness deep inside you. You used Margot's life
"Yes, that's great. When you put on the wedding dress, you'll definitely look especially beautiful."Margot smiled lightly and said, "You probably look beautiful in a wedding dress. I'm too short to pull off a gorgeous gown.""No way, I've heard that..."Natalie glanced over at Curtis, who was holding Louis in the air, and said, "He personally designed several wedding dresses specifically tailored for you. We’re not sure if they're finished yet, but when you get married, he’ll definitely give them to you."Margot had no idea about this. "Why didn't Curtis ever mention it to me?""He probably wants to surprise you. Oh no, I shouldn't have said anything. Please don't tell anyone it was me who told you!"Margot smiled, and naturally everyone took it as a joke.In the afternoon, Anthony really showed up.He didn't want to go into Crosby's residence, so he stood at the entrance and sent a message to Lena, telling her that he had arrived and asking her to come out.Lena ignored him.
"Sure!"At this moment, both Lena and Margot were quite excited.After having dinner, Gabriel didn't leave.Natalie was thinking about taking Margot and Lena to shoot wedding photos tomorrow, and she decided to stay overnight at the Crosby residence tonight.She stayed, and Gabriel stayed too.The next morning, Calvin personally drove to the Crosby residence to pick up Natalie.He arrived quite early and noticed a car parked in front of the Crosby residence that looked like Anthony's. When he went closer, he saw that Anthony was actually asleep in the car.He knocked on the car window.Anthony woke up from his sleep, rolled down the car window, and when he saw it was Calvin, he sat up straight and asked, "What are you doing here?"Calvin said, "I was going to ask you the same thing. Why were you sleeping out here so early in the morning?"Anthony checked the time on his watch and realized that he had been waiting for Lena here all night.He said, somewhat wearily, "I came to
Curtis didn't argue with her, and instead, he took her hand and led her inside.Margot noticed that despite Curtis' stern demeanor, he still showed care for her through his actions. She smiled knowingly and playfully asked while walking beside him, "What, can't find me at certain times and you're worried I ran off with someone else?"Curtis glanced at her and scoffed."Would you dare? If you dare run off with someone else, I'll break your legs."Despite speaking harsh words, the expression on the face and the gaze in the eyes directed at Margot were so gentle, it seemed as if they could bring forth tears.Margot listened to his violent words and stared at him, "Say it again, whose legs are you going to break?"Curtis was standing there. Although he still had a bit of presence, his facial expression already showed defeat.Before he could try to please his wife again, Margot had already brushed past him and slipped through the mansion's front doors.While running, he shouted, "An
So Gabriel had to personally drive her wherever she needed to go.Curtis listened to the two people and narrowed his eyes again."Who else?""Anthony."Anthony?Curtis was momentarily taken aback.Then, he saw Anthony coming out of the kitchen wearing an apron and carrying a plate, and walking into the dining room.He set down his coat and told Luna, "You sit, I'll go help.""Go ahead."Curtis followed into the kitchen and saw that Anthony and Gabriel were acting as if they were in their own home, helping themselves to whatever they wanted to eat and making it themselves.He also felt a bit embarrassed and walked over, saying, "It's not right to have you cook since you're visiting, let me do it instead."Gabriel glanced at him and said, "We all treat you like one of us, so why are you being so formal with us?"Anthony responded, "I'm making it for my wife, after all, she only eats the food that I make."Curtis shook his head helplessly.They were showing off their relatio
Margot and Lena turned their heads at the same time.Jordan was dressed in a British-style uniform with a backpack. At eight years old, he stood around four feet tall. His smile was like a little ray of sunshine and could really brighten anyone's day.He shouted, "Mom, Aunt Lena, did you come specifically to pick me up?"Every time Margot heard Jordan call her "mom," it filled her heart with warmth.She raised her hand to give him a hug, gently ruffled his hair, and said, "Of course I'm here to pick you up, get in the car.""It's been a month since I last saw you, and you've grown taller."Lena pulled Jordan onto the vehicle and started driving.Sitting in the car, Jordan couldn't help but smile as he looked at his senior.Lena looked at him and smiled, "Living here, how does it compare to being up in the mountains?"Jordan's eyes landed on Margot, filled with warmth and joy."Wherever my mom and dad are, I feel is the best place. Of course, I'm not saying that being with Mas
Margot greeted them with a smile, saying, "I thought you two would be quietly enjoying your romantic time at the estate. I didn't expect you'd come over to see us!"Lena reached out and gently pinched Louis' round cheeks, then looked at Margot and said, "You keep saying that, but you're not working, so why don't you come visit us?""I'm at home taking care of the kids. You have no idea how challenging it is.""Heh, you're just unfairly blaming Louis. Our little Louis is clearly very well-behaved."Lena ignored Margot and couldn't help but give Louis a couple of kisses after picking him up.Anthony walked over and asked, "Where is everyone else?"Margot motioned for them to come over and sit down, then poured them some water."Natalie just had her baby not long ago, and my in-laws went with Natalie's parents and the others to visit the babies, and they're also going to visit Dad."Whenever Anthony talked about his oblivious elderly father, he got frustrated.He didn't ask any m
Frederick, exuding the presence of the head of the family, welcomed the arriving in-laws with a smile.Afterwards, he behaved well and didn't mention anything about Yasmine, nor did he cause any trouble with his sons.The in-laws were very careful not to mention Frederick's injury, as they didn't want to hurt his pride.Daniel saw how lively it was at home and decided to bring Ena's mother over so that the in-laws could take the opportunity to get to know each other better.In the days that followed, everyone got along very well.In Amberville, Alice Manor.Anthony and Lena were enjoying a peaceful and romantic time together here. No one was bothering them, and they were not going out to work.The two of them spent the entire day cozied up at home.It involved either snacking while watching a movie or playing games followed by some cuddling and kissing.Anthony often made delicious food for Lena and took care of her so well that she seemed completely pampered.This caused Len
"If you won't let me bring her into the family, fine, I'll set up a large estate elsewhere. When the time comes, I won't let you in either."Daniel felt that his father was quite childish.He chuckled and said, "How about this, once the guests leave, I'll take you back to Yasmine. Then you can tell her that you've cut all ties with us and you want nothing. At that point, Yasmine is still willing to stay by your side and take care of you, then we'll do as you wish. How about that?Regarding the greedy Coran siblings, it was important to know that their father didn't have anything valuable left on him, and they wouldn't gain any benefits either.It would be surprising if she still stayed by Frederick's side."Don't underestimate people; Yasmine's love for me is genuine."Frederick didn't want to bet with Daniel.Human nature was something that shouldn't be gambled on.Daniel laughed again. "Are you afraid of losing, Dad?"Frederick stared at Daniel and said, "When have I ever be
Yasmine was not happy when she heard she would be left alone.She knelt beside Frederick, holding his hand and pleading desperately, "Frederick, you can't do this. You can't leave me here alone. If you leave, they'll treat me badly again, just like before. Can you take me with you? Even if it's just to be your nanny, I'm begging you!"Frederick could not stand seeing women cry.When Yasmine pleaded like that, he softened and turned to look at Daniel.Daniel, with a blank expression, said, "Dad, do you really want your in-laws to see you like this?"Frederick also looked upset and said in a serious tone:"Couldn't you say she's my nanny? Who would know?""We have kids at home, do they lie?"Frederick had no choice but to turn to Yasmine and said, "Just stay here. They won’t dare bother you again. I'm leaving now."He raised his hand to signal Daniel to push the wheelchair.Daniel pushed the wheelchair forward.However, Yasmine was unwilling and tried to stop it again.The he
"Are we supposed to live here for the rest of our lives? Even if we have to stay here, at least give us the freedom to come and go as we please."Look at how they've sent so many people to watch over us again, clearly treating us like prisoners."Noticing that Frederick's expression was starting to soften, Yasmine continued to stoke the fire."Tell me, is there any way sons should be treating their father like this? They just want to drive you to your limits so they can split up your assets. Frederick, you can't let them have their way, or else you'll spend your whole life working tirelessly for them only to end up in such a miserable situation. How pitiable that would be.Frederick was speechless.He didn't want to go back. But if he did, his sons would have to treat him with great respect.He hoped that Calvin would bring the military seal, and it had been two days now, yet they still hadn't delivered it to him.Was he really planning on not giving it to him?As soon as he th
She ignored him, and Tommy didn't take the initiative to talk to her either to avoid making her overthink.After sitting in the living room for a while, he waited for all the members of the Crosby family to come downstairs. Once they did, he followed them to the dining room for a meal.As soon as Tommy arrived, Laura put down her fork, got up, and without looking back, said, "Enjoy your meal, I'm heading to the university.""Heading out so early?" Ashley asked.However, she didn't respond and slipped out the door directly.Elias said, "There's an exam coming up, so she's been very focused. She goes in early every day."Curtis and the others didn't seem to mind and invited Tommy to sit down.Only Margot knew why Laura walked so quickly.It was because Tommy was here.Laura had a crush on this big celebrity, and since she couldn't be with him, it was naturally difficult for her to interact with him further.So it was completely understandable that she avoided him whenever she s
