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
When Lena opened the package, inside it were a few metaphysical books left for her by Bronson, along with the golden pendant.At the time, she didn't think much of it. She just assumed that since Bronson had gone back there, he must still be there, so she stayed and waited.A month went by, and there was still no sign of Bronson.Later, when she recalled the existence of the golden pendant, she quickly returned to the city.Now, Curtis was telling her that the golden pendant was most likely a family heirloom from someone else and even had initials engraved on it. What could that signify?Did the golden pendant have something to do with her background?As long as Lena found the origin of the golden pendant, she could figure out who her biological parents were.Lena suddenly became very excited and turned to Curtis, pleading, "Curtis, could you help me look it up? I want to find out where this golden pendant comes from so I can return it to its rightful owner. It's a family heirlo
Curtis felt vexed for a while. When he considered the tense relationship between Lena and Anthony, he decided not to mention that Lena was the one who asked for the investigation. Instead, he lied, "I found this on the road. It looked quite exquisite, so I wanted to ask if any of you have seen it before."Anthony explained, "That item belongs to the Emeria royal family."Curtis was surprised. "Items from Emeria royalty?""Yes. Whenever a child is born into the royal family, they are given a personalized golden pendant that symbolizes their status after they are named."I just took a look at the initials on your golden pendant. It's from Yelena Evans. That child passed away just two months after being born."But when someone passes away, their golden pendant is usually destroyed. How did you manage to find that golden pendant?"Curtis continued to deflect, saying, "How am I supposed to know whose it is? Maybe someone thought it was valuable and then it somehow ended up here?"Ant
On the other end of the phone, Anthony's gentle and deep voice could be heard."Honey, are you back in Amberville?"Lena's mind went blank. She held the cellphone to her ear for a long time without reacting.Anthony didn't hear a response, so he called out again, "Honey, are you listening to me?"Lena snapped back to reality, and responded with a hum. "Anthony," she said."I'm here."She requested, "Can you book a plane ticket for me? I want to come visit you."She wanted to take the golden pendant and go to Emeria to find out if she truly belonged to the royal family.A golden pendant can't prove anything, but a paternity test can.She had to figure out why her master left her a golden pendant that belonged to a dead person.Anthony thought that Lena wanted to see him because she missed him, so he immediately said, "Okay, I'll arrange that for you. When do you plan on coming over? Tomorrow, or some other time?"Lena responded, "I'll wait for Margot to get better soon. I'l
Downstairs, breakfast was already prepared and set out.After a short while, Natalie and Lena also came downstairs and joined the others in the dining room.Natalie was pleasantly surprised to see that Margot could finally get out of bed and that she looked much better."Margot, are you feeling better now?" she asked. Margot nodded and said, "After Lena got me to drink a couple of sips of some herbal liquor last night, I took a nap and felt much better when I woke up."Natalie gazed at Lena with admiration and remarked, "How are you so impressive at such a young age?"Lena gave a slight smile and sat down next to her."I grew up in the mountains and never left. My master only taught me to read and write, along with some unique skills that no one else knows. I never thought they'd actually come in handy," she said.In reality, the strange behaviors she exhibited made it seem like she was pretending to be mystical or supernatural to others.One may not realize it, but the world
