"Alright, I'll go with you," said Margot.The couple went downstairs together to see Gabriel and Luna off to the airport.Lena didn't go along. She asked Calvin to arrange a car for her so she could visit Pamela at the royal palace.Calvin felt that Lena had contributed majorly to his family, so he didn't want the driver to send her there. He decided to drive her there himself.A bunch of people suddenly left the once lively home.After settling Tina down, Natalie went to the living room and called Benjamin, who was at university. She asked him if he wanted to come and see Gabriel off as he was leaving today.Benjamin realized it was too late to go there, so he decided to make a video call to check on Gabriel instead.Natalie felt that since they often met up anyway, Benjamin didn't need to go see Gabriel off.She had just finished a phone call with Benjamin when Allison walked over.Natalie looked at her and asked, "Is Princess Edna okay?""Everything's alright, but I need t
When faced with Tina's friendly gesture, Curtis felt like he had swallowed a bug that was now stuck in his throat, which made him feel really nauseous.He ignored Tina still, stood up, and looked at Margot, saying, "You guys eat. I'll go check on Daniel in his room first.""Okay."Margot nodded and watched Curtis leave, then she turned her attention back to Tina.When she saw Tina still looking at Curtis' departing figure with admiration in her eyes, she couldn't help but feel annoyed and said, "Princess Tina, I know my husband is attractive, but staring at him so blatantly might be inappropriate, don't you think?"Upon hearing this, Natalie finally realized what was wrong. She also looked at Tina.Tina smiled and looked back at Margot, saying, "You mentioned that your husband is very attractive. I just took a few extra glances. Ms. Stone, you wouldn't happen to be jealous, would you?""Please call me Mrs. Crosby, thank you."Margot forced a smile as she spoke.If it weren't f
Margot continued, "It's like earlier, if you keep staring at someone knowing they're married, the people outside would call you shameless."Natalie held back her laughter and nodded in agreement."Calling you shameless is actually kind of mild. If you keep eyeing married men, you might end up being treated like a rat crossing the street, with everyone wanting to beat you up and chase you away."Margot wasn't done with her speech."This is what happens when you keep eyeing other people's husbands. If someone shamelessly tries to seduce a married man, they will be put in a cage and thrown into the sea to drown."So, Princess Tina, be careful and don't make such mistakes again. Otherwise, no one will be able to save you."Tina's face turned pale by the end of Margot's speech.She quickly looked down and used the excuse of eating to cover up her embarrassment.She knew that the two women across from her were finding different ways to insult her. Damn it! She couldn't find any words
Curtis' remark piqued Margot's interest. She crouched next to Curtis, placed a hand on his leg, and batted her doe-like eyes as she asked, "Tell me, what did she do to make you feel disgusted? It couldn't have just been because she kissed you that day at the dance, right?"After that incident, Curtis didn't seem all that bothered by Tina.He had gone to the castle to find Tina later on, and something must have happened between them that made him now avoid Tina whenever he saw her."Never mind, let's not talk about this anymore," he said.Curtis didn't want to talk about it, so he quickly focused on his meal.Margot was very curious and said with a smile, "Tell me. I want to see what a woman can do to make a man so disgusted.""I'm not saying," said Curtis as his expression dimmed.Margot squinted at him and guessed, "She didn't strip down to seduce you, did she?"Curtis stayed silent and kept eating.From Margot's perspective, his silence equated to agreement.She didn't know
Margot felt like slapping Tina right now."Previously?" Natalie asked.She then frowned. "No wonder Curtis avoids her whenever he sees her. But you should trust Curtis. Besides, we need her help to lift the spell from Daniel, so it's better not to anger her for now."Upon hearing those words, Margot struggled to contain her anger."Fine, I won't provoke her for now. I'll deal with her myself once she lifts the spell from Daniel."Did Tina have a death wish? She dared to covet a man who belongs to Margot, huh?…At the same time, in Tina's room, she asked the helpers to call Edna over and handed her a package of medicine."I can tell they trust you and that you have a good relationship with them. Look for an opportunity to put this medicine in their food," Tina instructed.Edna looked at the item Tina held out in front of her with a face full of astonishment."Tina, what are you thinking? Even Father was no match for Calvin and ended up being forced to step down. Aren't you af
Upon hearing what Edna said, Calvin turned and glanced at her.After a moment of silence, he spoke truthfully, "Daniel rarely had interactions with women in the past, but it wasn't like he kept everyone at a distance. He used to treat his younger sister quite well."He was referring to Zyla. Daniel had treated Zyla better than anyone else.Edna was still very worried. She didn't say anything else and quietly left the room.Watching Edna's departing figure, Calvin turned his gaze back to Daniel lying on the bed. In fact, he was also worried about this issue.Edna was a nice girl, but what if Daniel woke up and refused to accept the marriage with her?After all, they were essentially a married couple, so they can't just let Daniel abandon her, right?Shortly after, Natalie pushed the door open and walked in.Upon seeing Calvin there, she asked, "Has Daniel not woken up yet?"Calvin got up and went to stand next to Natalie."Not yet, and I'm not sure when he will wake up. But wh
"Did you do something that warrants punishing yourself so harshly? Be honest with me, you didn't get physically intimate with her, did you?" Margot questioned.Curtis immediately raised his hand and swore, "I swear I didn't. She took off her clothes to try and seduce me, but I had the pepper spray that Gabriel gave me."When she got close to me, I sprayed her. She passed out within a couple of seconds, and then I left."Margot was at a loss for words. She didn't know why, but all of a sudden, her heart felt heavy and sorrowful. She still felt a faint sense of pain.Curtis worried she might overthink, quickly explained, "I even took my tie to cover my eyes at the time, so I really didn't see anything."Margot still felt her chest being weighed down by a heavy weight and suffocation. She got up, walked to the bed, and without saying another word, slipped under the blanket."Margot…"Curtis got up, walked over, sat down on the edge of the bed, and leaned over to hold her. "Can you
Calvin gritted his teeth and let Curtis go. "Curtis, I'm warning you. I'm grateful that you're helping me look into Daniel's matter, but if you end up flirting with other women and making Margot unhappy, I won't let you off the hook," he warned.As Calvin thought back to Curtis' past mistakes, he really wanted to punch him.Curtis lowered his gaze. His voice sounded raspy as he asked, "Do none of you trust me? After all these years, why would I fight so hard to stay with Margot if I had any doubts about my commitment to her?"Although Margot kept saying she trusted him, her actions clearly showed that she was bothered by it.Calvin's actions further confirmed his complete lack of trust in Curtis.It was kind of sad when Curtis thought about it."I'm just suspecting. If you didn't lead someone on, would they still be so attached to you?" Calvin remarked. He then asked, "Do you know why Tina still hasn't lifted the spell from Daniel?"Curtis looked at him and responded, "Didn't sh
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
