Curtis stopped in his tracks, then glanced back at Tommy.Tommy continued, "Her condition isn't that severe. I believe she'll recover quickly as long as we don't stimulate her any further."Earlier, the doctor had explained that if a patient remembered certain details while overlooking others, it indicated the presence of dissociative amnesia.That implied that Margot selectively clung to the positive aspects of her life. She wouldn't be able to recall the people or situations that caused her sadness or grief.Curtis disregarded Tommy's advice and entered the ward anyway.Tommy had initially planned to stop him. However, considering they were married, he had no choice but to relent.Once again, Curtis stood by Margot's bedside, quietly observing her.Margot sat at the head of the bed, staring out the window. Upon realizing someone had entered, she turned to look.Although the man standing before her was extremely handsome, she had no idea who he was.Margot wasn't fond of inte
After ensuring Curtis had left, Tommy requested Margot's discharge from the hospital.On that very night, he took Margot and left, going to a place beyond Curtis' reach.Although he knew it wasn't appropriate, he always felt that Margot would be in danger if she continued to stay there.Although uncertain whether Curtis was the source of danger, Tommy preferred that Margot avoid any contact with him until she had completely recovered and he had unraveled the reasons behind her attempted suicide.…Curtis simply went home, showered, and changed his clothes. Upon his return to the hospital, the ward was already empty.Seeing the nurse tidying up the bed, he strode forward and asked, "Where is the patient who was staying here?"The nurse was startled and quickly replied, "She's been discharged this afternoon.""What do you mean? She hasn't fully recovered yet, right? How could she be discharged?""I'm not so sure about this as well. Her family insisted on discharging her."Curti
Margot slowly nodded, and her awareness gradually returned to normal. She asked Tommy, "If you're not Curt, what's your relationship with me?"After a moment of hesitation, Tommy replied, "I'm your … best friend.""Then why didn't you take me home? Why did you transfer me to another hospital instead?""It's not safe for you to return home for the time being.""Why is it not safe? I remember having a home, and someone loved me dearly there. He would buy me everything I liked. I felt very safe with him."Tommy knew who she was talking about. He asked in return, "Don't you feel safe with me by your side?"Margot smiled and nodded. "Of course, I feel safe!""In that case, just treat me like the person who loves you dearly back home."Margot was at a loss. Was it okay for her to do that? If it were, then she would do it."Tommy, I'm a little tired. Can I sleep for a while?" Margot asked while yawning. Besides, she didn't feel like eating anymore.Tommy swiftly set aside the fork a
Curtis remained unfazed and determined to leave with Margot despite the pain in his arm. Tommy wanted to intervene but got stopped by Chester.Seeing that Curtis still wouldn't let go, Margot bit down more forcefully. However, it didn't work at all.Margot suddenly let out a piercing scream. Amid her scream, Margot clenched her fists and delivered a punch to Curtis' face.Her scream had attracted the attention of those nearby. Unable to bear it any longer, Tommy shouted at Curtis, "Are you trying to kill her? Isn't once enough?""Tommy! Save me, Tommy!"Margot continued to struggle and scream. Curtis couldn't bear her struggling anymore, so he let go of her.Freed from Curtis' grasp, Margot raced toward Tommy as if fleeing for her life. Trembling violently, she clung to him and mumbled incoherently, "Please don't hand me over to him. I don't like him at all. I hate him! I feel a sharp pain in my chest whenever I see him. Tommy, please take me away. I'm scared."Margot curl
"Don't come near me! Don't touch me! It hurts so much!" Margot yelled out, "My head hurts so terribly!"She winced in pain as she began to pull at the white gauze wrapped around her head.When Curtis saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop her. "Margot, it's me! Please stop doing this!""Don't touch me! Go away! I don't want to see you. I feel so uncomfortable when you're near me. Please just leave me alone!"She flailed about, trying to keep Curtis away from her while screaming at the top of her lungs.Margot seemed to have completely lost her mind, behaving like a lunatic. She also kept clawing at the wound on her head.Curtis couldn't bear to see her in such a state and was determined to help her."Margot, please stop. The wound might reopen. I'm Curtis, and I'll never hurt you." He held her tightly in his arms, causing her to lose control even more. Then, she fiercely bit down on his neck.Curtis didn't dare to move, allowing her to sink her teeth into him. At leas
Curtis couldn't bear the thought of losing Margot. He truly regretted what he had done. He should have followed Tommy's advice and refrained from stimulating her.Realizing the gravity of the situation, he asked Chester to bring Tommy back. Although he was reluctant to ask Tommy for help, he knew it was the only way.Upon Tommy's return, he found Curtis seated on the bench outside the VIP ward, his pristine white shirt stained with blood from the neck bite.It was truly a heart-wrenching scene to behold.Tommy said, "Go take care of the wound on your neck. Don't worry, I won't take her away this time."With tears and bloodshot eyes, Curtis looked up at Tommy and managed a choked apology, "I'm sorry."He was apologizing for what happened moments ago.Turning the other cheek, Tommy said, "If you were truly acting in her best interests, I wouldn't hold it against you. After all, she is your wife."Cutis explained, "I was just too impatient. I didn't realize that my impatience coul
Margot remained unconscious for two full days. During this time, Tommy and Curtis maintained a vigil by her bedside.Curtis only left when Margot's vital signs returned to normal, and she regained consciousness. Tommy leaned over her and whispered, "Margot, you've been asleep for a long time. Please just open your eyes and look at me."Margot's eyes fluttered open at the sound of Tommy's voice.Several tubes were removed from her body, and there was already a hint of color returning to her face.She gazed weakly at the man sitting by her bedside, her voice barely a whisper. "Tommy, I had a dream."Tommy promptly asked her, "What did you dream about?""I dreamt that you lifted me by the fish pond, and I also dreamt that Natalie bought me a beautiful dress."Pleasantly surprised, Tommy asked, "So you've finally regained your memories?"Margot's brow furrowed in confusion as she tried to make sense of Tommy's words.Seeing her confusion, Tommy quickly comforted her, saying, "If
Margot was feeling much more clear-headed, yet an empty void lingered in her heart. It was as if she had lost something very important to her. Margot's face lit up when she saw Doris entering with food. Happily, she called out, "Doris!""Hey, Ms. Stone!" Doris smiled and swiftly unpacked the food. While doing so, she asked, "Ms. Stone, how did you manage to injure your head? Why does it look so serious? Does it hurt?"Margot pouted her lips like a child, looking especially pitiful. "I don't know how I injured myself, and it hurts so much.""Oh my, you poor thing! Come and have something to eat first."Tommy took the bowl, saying, "I'll feed her."Doris glanced at Tommy and nodded.Tommy remembered the doctor's words that Margot could only eat soft food. So he gently mashed the dumplings and spooned them to her along with the soup.Margot gladly opened her mouth and ate, her eyes fixed on Tommy. She was smiling. "Why are you smiling at me again?" Tommy asked. "Because you'r
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
