Margot felt that Lena wouldn't go back to the original place just to find Branden. She had just spent a month in the countryside before coming back. She had also clearly promised to stay with Pamela in Emeria.Yet, she was already back in Amberville after just a few days. Could it be that she has something she needs to do?"What are you thinking about? It's time to get up. After you're done washing up, I'm taking Louis and you to my office."Curtis reached out to hug Margot, but Margot turned down his advances and said seriously, "You'd better send someone to find Lena quickly. From what I know, she wouldn't be going back to the mountains where she used to live. She must have something important to do."Curtis responded, "Alright, I'll send someone to find her first."After making a call and assigning someone to find Lena, he was afraid of Margot worrying again, so he reassured her by saying, "I'll call Pamela to find out what's going on with Lena."Margot suddenly came to a real
Natalie certainly knew why Margot had come over and gently offered her some comforting words. "Don't worry, Lena has probably gone to the countryside where she used to live with her master."Margot nodded, but her expression couldn't hide the worry. "I'm afraid that Lena will blame us."Natalie was puzzled. "Why would she be upset with us?""Because Calvin and his people have been keeping an eye on Lena and Grandma."Natalie, you know it, right? Lena is our benefactor. We say we don't care about the old prophecy, but just because her identity is Princess Yelena, we still send people to monitor her. How could she not feel sad?"Since they had promised they wouldn't harm Lena and assured her safety in the royal family, Calvin and the others shouldn't be sending anyone to monitor her anymore.With the way things were going, it was as if Calvin and the others were still wary of Lena .Natalie frowned and said, "I didn't hear Calvin say anything about monitoring Lena. It was Anthony
Natalie smiled and said, "What's the problem? It's broad daylight now."Margot also felt the same way. Natalie was pregnant now, so Calvin couldn't really do anything and could only stay by her side.However, it was fine as long as he was there for Natalie at night. During the day, Natalie was still hers.After having breakfast, the two of them took Louis to the park to enjoy the sunshine and get some vitamin D.Deep down in Natalie's heart, she also hoped that Margot could come and spend a few more days with her—because she might be leaving soon to go with Calvin.They wouldn't have many opportunities to meet in the future. Thus, it was best to cherish every moment they had together now.Margot asked Natalie to hold her Louis while she took out her phone to take pictures of them.Suddenly, a notification about an entertainment news story popped up on her phone's screen. The headline read, "Luna Seen Bringing Mysterious Man Home Late at Night, Sparking Rumors of New Romance."M
Margot was stunned once more and completely dumbfounded. Not only was she dumbfounded, but she was also completely shocked and overwhelmed.Natalie stared intently at her phone with an expression of exaggerated surprise on her face, and she asked, "What's wrong?"Margot handed her phone over and exclaimed, "This is too much! They actually registered their marriage without telling us, which had me angrily arguing with someone online just now."Natalie took the phone. When she saw that Luna and Gabriel had personally announced the news, she wasn't surprised at all for some reason. She could even feel happy for the two of them.Natalie laughed at Margot and said, "When we registered our marriage, we didn't tell them either, so it's understandable that they kept it from us on purpose.""Don't you think their relationship is progressing too quickly? You introduced them when you were taking wedding photos, and it's only been three months, right?"Natalie, it wasn't about making the rel
In the men's group chat, everyone was abuzz with excitement.Gabriel: "Mr. Curtis is really generous. He's starting a shower of money boxes."The next moment, Anthony also sent a few money boxes for fun.Tommy figured that since the other part was at the very least, the biological father of his nephew, he should also send some money boxes as a gesture of congratulations.Everyone was sending the money boxes, except Curtis, who only knew how to take them.Gabriel tagged Curtis after seeing this.Gabriel: "Mr. Crosby, aren't you going to do it too?"Curtis: "I have no money."Gabriel: "Tut tut, just look at that. Decades of friendship can't even compare to former love rivals."He was, of course, referring to Calvin.Curtis: "I got married and you still haven't sent any to me."He said this with full reason and confidence.Gabriel: "You secretly got married. I don't even know how I would've sent it to you."Curtis: "Well, now that you know, it's not too late to send it now."
True to her word, Margot immediately transferred 8000 dollars to Curtis.People often said that a man who spends a woman's money lacked ambition. Who would have thought Curtis would actually accept it? Not only did he take it, but he also bragged about it in the men's group chat.Curtis: "It's great to have a woman supporting you. When you run out of money, she'll transfer thousands of dollars to you in no time."Curtis: "Hey everyone, can't I just chill and enjoy an easy life now?"Tommy: "How shameless."Anthony: "In my entire life, I would rather starve than spend a woman's money."Gabriel: "My friend, you've changed."Calvin: "I know a few billionaires too. I think I should introduce them to my sister."Curtis tagged Calvin in the group chat and asked, "Is that really necessary?"Calvin: "It is very necessary."Curtis: "Alright, alright, I'll return the money, okay? I think you all are just acting sour because you can't have what I have. All you do is envy me; is there an
Anthony didn't deny it; he admitted that he was exactly as Calvin described.Even though there was no future between him and Lena, he just couldn't forget about her. He didn't want her to leave him and go to another man.The thought of her marrying another man drove Anthony mad with jealousy; he simply couldn't accept it.What to do after finding Lena wasn't something he needed to think about right now.All he wanted now was to quickly go find her.She was not allowed to be alone with Branden no matter what.…After hanging up the phone, Calvin left the study and went to the master bedroom.Natalie was sitting at the bedside and was conducting prenatal education for their babies.When she saw Calvin come in, she smiled and asked, "Finished with work?"Calvin responded with a small sound and walked over to sit next to Natalie. He took her hand in his, and it seemed like he wanted to say something but was unsure of how to begin.It was clear to Natalie that Calvin had things t
Although it seemed like the climb from the foot to the top of the mountain should be short, Lena ended up taking three full days to make the ascent.In the end, while she was completely out of provisions and utterly exhausted, she collapsed unconscious in front of the dilapidated gate of the abbey.When she woke up again, she was already lying on a hard wooden bed. She was in a place that was quite similar to where she had lived with Branden when she was a child.She sat up and noticed that the room was sparsely furnished. One could even say it was an empty place with nothing but bare walls.Occasionally, she could hear the sounds of chickens and other poultry coming from outside the taped-up window.Lena got out of bed, put on her shoes, and quietly walked to the door. She pulled open the carved wooden door that showed signs of age.The courtyard was similar to a typical abbey's courtyard. It's a small quadrangle with plants and bushes everywhere, decorated pillars, and statues,
