Calvin wanted Zyla to repent before their parents' graves and spend the rest of her life atoning for her sins against the Morris'."Okay."Anthony stood up and got ready to leave when the study door was pushed open.Curtis stood at the doorway with a grave expression. He said, "Royce is coming over and wants Margot to meet him near Crestwood University. He mentioned it might be the last time they see each other. Do you guys want to come along?""I'll set things up near Crestwood University right away. You just need to accompany Margot. Remember, do not let Royce get close to Margot, and make sure to keep her safe.""Okay." With that, Curtis turned and walked away. He knew that Calvin and Anthony would send someone to capture Royce before bringing him back to Emeria and making him confess to his crimes.For the sake of Margot's safety, naturally, he would arrange for someone to keep an eye on Royce.So, without having breakfast, the group set off in their car to the hotel locatio
If it weren't for Laura's phone call, by now Royce would have already reclaimed everything that rightfully belonged to his royal lineage, and the Morris family would have been wiped out.Even when he lost, it was caused by Laura, and he didn't feel like he had lost to the Morris family. So, he didn't regret his actions at all.Curtis realized that Royce was genuinely prepared to face death. He took out his phone and sent a text to Margot. He asked her to come upstairs.Curtis looked at Royce and reminded him, "If you have something to say, hurry up and say it."Otherwise, once they left the room, Royce would never have the chance to speak again.Royce casually poured another half glass of red wine and sipped it leisurely. He said to Curtis, "I had hoped to see the woman I love and share my innermost thoughts with her in the final moments of my life, but it's clear that she doesn't want to see me."Since that's the case, I have nothing more to say. I'll wait here for her for a day
As Margot watched Royce sit there with his head down and become deeply engrossed in talking about the past in front of her and Curtis, she couldn't help but feel touched.It was true that back then, they were very youthful and full of energy.Back then, Royce was extremely cheerful and full of laughter. He was popular in the university like a carefree scion from a wealthy family.Unfortunately, he couldn't help but always follow Margot around and appear in front of her.No matter how many times she told him that she already had someone she liked, he still enthusiastically bought her breakfast, saved her a seat in the library, and stood in line to get her foodin the cafeteria.He even accompanied her on a train to Brooksville.However, it was precisely because he was always following her that she became increasingly unhappy.She was even abducted by Anthony, which led to a miscarriage. Later on, it was also because of Anthony that caused her to encounter many unfortunate events.
"My father sacrificed so much for the peace of Emeria. You must be aware of that. Although he always had control over your royal family, he also ensured your wealth and high status," said Calvin."How could you be so heartless to do that? Royce, you killed my dad and Daniel. The lives of everyone in your entire family couldn't make up for it."It turned out that it was Royce who harmed Frederick.Calvin hated himself for not thoroughly checking things the night Frederick and Daniel left. Why didn't he ensure that Frederick's surroundings were safe before letting them board the plane? How negligent could he be that even someone who worked for Royce managed to place a bomb on the plane?Royce, who was barely clinging to life with blood still pouring from his mouth, lifted his head weakly. With unfocused eyes, he looked at the woman who collapsed in Curtis' arms.He weakly called out, "Margot…"Margot couldn't bring herself to look at him. She turned to face Curtis' chest and was un
Calvin said, "It's good that he took matters into his own hands and saved us the trouble. Let's quickly take care of things and arrange to send Mother back to Emeria.""Okay."With that, Anthony stood up and personally took care of Royce's remains.…Margot fell ill after returning to the manor. Her high fever was persistent and didn't reduce.Margot, who was in a coma, was always having various nightmares. She dreamed of herself falling into a sea of blood and was unable to get up. She dreamed of countless demonic claws reaching for her as if they were trying to drag her into hell to be devoured.All the pain and suffering she had endured throughout her life now completely overwhelmed her at that moment. It enveloped her and trapped her in a nightmare from which there was no escape.Calvin saw that Margot remained in a coma and wouldn't recover anytime soon. In the end, he had no choice but to ask Curtis to stay and help take care of Natalie and Margot.He and Anthony took Reg
Lena was only gone for a month. Within a month, not only did Regina die, but Frederick and Daniel also passed away. Even Royce, who once liked Margot, ended up dying.How could this have happened?After seeing Curtis beside her, Lena snapped back to reality and quickly asked, "You asked me over the phone to come and check on Margot. What's wrong with her?"Curtis said, "She's been ill lately and has been feeling very disoriented. The doctor said it was due to excessive shock, combined with the fact that she's encountered too many sad events recently."They said there's no particular medicine for this. Go upstairs and check on her first.""Okay."Lena didn't stay any longer and quickly ran upstairs.When Lena entered Margot's room, she saw Margot lying in bed with a flushed face. She looked even thinner than before. It made Lena's heart ache to see her like this.With reddened eyes, she sat by the bedside and raised her hand to hold Margot's hand, saying, "Margot, I'm back. Can
After hearing what Lena said, Curtis and Natalie were both taken aback. A psychological issue? Did such psychological issues really exist in this world?Although they were very skeptical, it was entirely possible that Margot might have encountered something supernatural.Otherwise, why would the doctors be unable to do anything about her condition?They had to trust in Lena instead.Natalie nodded and said, "Alright. I'll go and get the things you need."Curtis stopped her and said, "You stay here. I'll go get things ready. You're pregnant, and you probably shouldn't be handling those kinds of items."Lena was surprised and looked at Natalie. "Are you pregnant, Natalie?"Natalie nodded.Lena quickly raised her hand and pulled her over, saying, "Then why didn't you tell me?"Curtis is right. Pregnant women shouldn't be touching those things. When I help Margot later, you can't stay either."Natalie nodded in confusion.Curtis got up to prepare the items that Lena needed.Soo
Curtis had no choice but to leave.Lena lit a few candles and placed them at the four corners of Margot's bed, where she was sleeping, and then lit some frankincense and placed it at the end of the bed.Then, she took the copper coins and approached Margot."Don't be afraid, Margot. Close your eyes and stop thinking about anything."Margot listened and obediently closed her eyes.Lena circled the copper coins around Margot's forehead while chanting a few spells. She then scraped some copper off of it and quickly threw it into a bowl filled with vodka. She lit the alcohol with the lighter and let it burn completely.The smoke gathered and left ashes scattered around the edges of the bowl. However, the flames continued to burn as it was fueled by vodka. Lena carried a cup filled with ashes and still-burning vodka and brought it to Margot's mouth."Margot, drink this."Margot complied and did what Lena said.After gulping the bowl filled with ash-covered vodka, she grimaced in di
