Margot couldn't stand facing her parents for another moment so she ran away in tears.Frederick was trembling all over and staggering as he walked.He was so overwhelmed with frustration that he almost couldn't catch his breath.Regina stepped forward to help him."Are you okay?"Frederick waved his hand and said, "I told you, even if she comes back to this house, she won't show any emotion.""Maybe we pushed too hard?" Regina covered her face and wiped away tears.Frederick sighed. "We can't stay here forever. We have to go back to Emeria eventually, and if we don’t take her with us, we'll always be missing her."The main reason was that their entire family had come here because the situation in Emeria had been extremely unstable recently.If they stayed here any longer and something happened over at Emeria, what would they do then?"How about after Calvin's wedding, you take them back first, and I'll stay here to persuade Margot slowly," Regina said.Frederick figured it w
Margot couldn't believe that the well-dressed young men in front of her were all from the Morris family.Out of politeness, she nodded and said, "Hello, everyone.""Margot, there's no need to be formal with us. Come back here and sit down, let's have a nice chat."An older person stepped up and pointed at the pavilion."Come on, Margot, sit down and have a good chat with us."They immediately got involved and pushed Margot back into the pavilion.Margot reluctantly went back to sit down. Facing a group of unfamiliar men for the first time, she felt a bit uneasy.The other cousin brothers also sat nearby, surrounding Margot, and spoke to her with concern."Margot, I heard that you were brought to Amberville when you were five years old, and it was Mr. Crosby who saved you?""Mr. Crosby is a tremendous benefactor to our family.""How have you been all these years?""Have you thought about when you'll join us in going back to Emeria to recognize your ancestral roots?""How abo
Curtis looked at the group of men and politely said, "I'm sorry, Margot just recovered from a serious illness and isn't in great shape. I'm going over to stay with her, you all go ahead without me."After that, Curtis grabbed the tray and hurried to keep up with Margot.While handing the food to Margot, he asked, "Are they trying to persuade you to go back to Emeria?"Margot grabbed a pastry and looked for a place where she could eat it alone."Yes. There were seven or eight of them, and they were just chattering about. If we don't leave soon, I might go crazy."She was really surprised that there were so many sons in the Morris family.And, each one of them was so attractive.If she hadn't been abandoned back then, growing up in that kind of family, she would probably have been very happy.It was a pity...She was not that lucky."What do you think?" Curtis asked.Margot sat down on the grassy field by the lake, glanced at Curtis, and responded evasively, "You really don't
Curtis gave a small smile, gently kissed Margot's lips, and said, "Alright, go to sleep now."……The wedding venue was set up like a dream, with everything in white, making it feel like stepping into a fairyland.White roses were everywhere, the gentle breeze carried their scent far and wide.And the most delightful part was that there were all sorts of pastries and alcoholic drinks set up all around the venue.Every item was meticulously crafted by the chef, and it looked very high-end.Sabrina was still asleep. Branden took a plate and selected some nice pastries, then carried it over to Lena.Lena was hiding in the flowers to take a nap. Nobody knew what she was dreaming about, but she was drooling for sure.Branden teased her by holding the pastry close to her nose.A good pastry had a uniquely sweet and fragrant taste.That was Lena's favorite flavor.She suddenly opened her eyes and saw the food in front of her. She happily grabbed it and took a bite.Just as she was a
Although the Morris family did not reside in Amberville, they still invited all the wealthy and influential people from Amberville to the wedding.He was just downstairs entertaining guests, and a child accidentally got his suit dirty, so he came upstairs to change.After listening to Anthony, he walked toward his room with a serious expression and said, "Just say it if you have something to say.""Back then, it seemed like you had a lot of respect for Branden. Why was that?"Frederick froze upon hearing Anthony's question, and his face turned pale.After a while, he took out a suit from the wardrobe.He said, "Stay out of some things."Anthony was persistent. "Can you tell me who he really is? Why do even you give him such respect?"Frederick still wasn't willing to speak. He adjusted his suit, faced Anthony, and wore an expression of authority."Margot is coming over. First, figure out a way to keep her here and don't worry about anything else."There were still guests down
Frederick was surprised.It turned out that the Branden mentioned by Anthony earlier wasn't the same Branden who helped him back in the day.But since they were master and disciple, it was likely that this disciple had inherited the formidable skills of his master.He asked, "Excuse me, Mr. York, do you know how to do fortune telling?"Branden gave a faint smile and said, "Of course, I know a bit."Frederick got excited and quickly asked, "Could you help me find out if my daughter will come back to me?"Back then, he followed Branden's advice, and his life took off like it was on a lucky streak.Later on, they had everything one could wish for: power, status, wealth, and a harmonious family.Now, if Branden's disciple could show him a clear path and help Margot return to his side, his life would finally be complete.Branden pressed his lips together and frowned. After a moment of silence, he looked at Frederick again and asked, "Do you really want to know?"Frederick was reso
After Lena left, she found Sabrina, who had just woken up.She handed the food to Sabrina and started braiding her hair into pigtails while asking, "Sabrina, let me ask you, do you still remember your mom?"Sabrina really loved eating pastries.Especially the one that Lena sent over, which was particularly delicious.She ate with great enjoyment and shook her head while responding to Lena, "No. I don't know what Mom looks like, and I don't even know her name.""Didn't your dad ever tell you anything about your mom?"Sabrina still shook her head. "Dad won't tell me."Lena was speechless.Why wouldn't Branden talk to Sabrina about her mother?Additionally, Sabrina didn't have any memories of her mother.In other words, she had not had a mother since she could remember.Did she lose her mother, or was she never Branden's daughter at all?Lena, having this thought, was taken aback.Suddenly, she remembered how Margot had told her about meeting Branden and Sabrina.She snapped
Lena was even more astonished.Branden was truly exceptional.Even Frederick respected him, so he..."What, he's very powerful, so you...""Lena, the wedding is about to start. Let's go to the venue."Just as Anthony was about to finish speaking, Luna's voice came from the doorway.Lena nodded in agreement and pushed Anthony away.Anthony stood there, seething with rage.He thought that now wasn't the right time to argue with Lena; he should wait until after the wedding to have a proper talk with her.Unable to contain the anger in his heart, he turned around and left the room.On a dreamlike meadow wedding venue, all the guests began to take their seats one after another.Curtis and Margot also arrived and took their seats, which were marked with their name tags.Their seats were near the very front, closest to the bride and groom.Everyone attending the wedding today was either wealthy or influential. They dressed elegantly and looked very happy.And there were quite a
