Margot woke up because she heard a noise. As she followed the sound and headed toward Daniel's room, she suddenly saw the family's bodyguards dragging a woman toward her.She stopped in her tracks and saw that the person being dragged over by the bodyguards was Tina.Margot was very surprised.As the bodyguards passed by her, they all nodded and greeted, "Ms. Margot."With a look of curiosity, Margot watched Tina, whose face was swollen and red, constantly scratching herself."What happened? What's going on?" Margot asked."Mr. Crosby asked us to take this person away."The bodyguards didn't dare to slack off and quickly took Tina away.Tina continued to scratch herself frantically, crying out in discomfort as she did so, "Curtis, give me the antidote. Curtis, you can't do this to me. Curtis…"Margot, while seeing Tina get dragged away and still calling out for Curtis incessantly, felt very uneasy.She quickly headed toward Daniel's room.Just as she reached the doorway of t
But… Daniel also recalled all the bits and pieces from his past.He felt a sense of discomfort in his heart and spoke to Edna with a cold demeanor, asking, "Can you please go away first?"Edna was taken aback by how Geralt had suddenly become so distant. She didn't move away. Instead, she lifted her hand, wanting to touch him.Daniel stepped back evasively, looking at her with a sense of detachment, and asked, "PrincessEdna, could you please not come near me?"Edna stopped her movement, and her steps involuntarily stumbled backward. She felt her heart ache sharply.Geralt had recovered. But just as Tina had said, he was beginning to resent her. Did he want to keep her at a distance?Edna didn't believe it and tried to reach out to touch him once again.Daniel saw her approaching him again and immediately moved to avoid her, shouting coldly, "What are you trying to do? I told you to stay away from me. Didn't you hear me?"As he spoke, the moment he thought about what had happene
Seeing that Daniel's expression had finally improved a bit, Calvin said with concern, "Daniel, you should rest well for now.""Okay."Daniel looked up and asked, "How's Dad? Is he doing well?"Calvin paused for a moment. He felt a strong urge to respond to that with a question of his own.But after he saw Daniel in such distress, he truly didn't want to upset him further.Daniel realized something was amiss as well and didn't press Calvin. He then said, "Let me take a moment to calm down, and I'll talk to you about what happened on the plane once I'm ready.""Okay."Calvin then left to prepare some food for Daniel.As soon as he left the house, he ran into Curtis.Curtis came up to him and asked, "Is Daniel awake?"Calvin had a gloomy expression as he replied, "He's awake, but his aversion is so severe that he simply can't accept Edna."Curtis' expression shifted, and he said, "I'll go take a look."He hurried into the room.He saw Daniel sitting at the head of the bed wit
Upon hearing what Allison said, Natalie felt very sympathetic.As long as Edna was willing to stay, they would take good care of her in the future and make her feel the warmth of being in the Morris family."Natalie…"Unable to hold back her emotions, Edna burst into tears and threw herself into Natalie's arms. "Thank you for accepting me. I'm willing to give Geralt more time and I'm willing to wait for him."Natalie smiled with relief. "That's better. Now no more tears. Let's go downstairs and have something to eat. When Lena arrives, we'll hear what she has to say.""Okay."Margot also held Edna's hand and led her downstairs to the dining room.…After Lena arrived, she went straight to Daniel's room.Daniel was feeling much more relieved. However, whenever he saw a woman approaching him, he felt extremely uncomfortable again.When Lena tried to touch him, he immediately shouted coldly, "Get lost!"Lena was startled and couldn't help but snap back, "Why are you being so un
After hearing what Daniel said, both Calvin and Curtis were extremely shocked.Was the plane crash a few months ago not caused by an explosion? But Royce had clearly admitted it himself.Calvin didn't want to believe he had hurt an innocent person. He stepped forward, supported Daniel, and asked with a look of astonishment on his face, "Daniel, are you sure it wasn't a plane explosion? But Royce admitted to us that he had someone place explosives on the plane. He knew his crime was unforgivable, so he chose to die to atone for it."Daniel clutched his chest in discomfort, bent over, and said, "I don't know about Royce's actions, but our plane crash wasn't due to an explosion. Maybe we weren't destined to die because something else happened before the plane exploded."He endured the pain he felt in his chest and raised his head to look at Calvin with bloodshot eyes."Calvin, why didn't you stop Zyla? Even if she made mistakes, she still grew up with us. Why did you just stand by
Downstairs, in the living room, Lena told the others, "Aversion is actually like germaphobia. I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to help you guys with this, especially since he won't let me get close to him either."She really didn't know how to handle this kind of psychological issue.When Edna saw that even Lena, someone who had excellent medical skills, was at a loss, she no longer held any hope.To keep everyone from worrying about her, she said optimistically, "It's alright. If he really doesn't want to accept me, then I'll just separate from him."The world was vast; surely there was a place where Edna and her mother could find refuge.Even though leaving Geralt might make her feel sad.But Geralt was unwilling to go with her, and there was nothing she could do about it.Natalie took Edna's hand and comforted her, "Don't talk nonsense. Since you've married Daniel, you're a part of this family now. You're not allowed to go anywhere. We'll take it slow; he'll come to accept
"Margot, you've known him the longest. You should understand him the best, right?" Lena pleaded.Lena leaned against Margot and sobbed, asking, "He's not a bad guy, right? I heard you met him in college, and he even risked his life to save you."That year when Curtis had his incident and wasn't around, he stayed by your side the whole time and treated Lilac as his own. He did so much for you; there's no way he would harm your family."Margot, can you please do him some justice?"After seeing Lena cry so hard, Margot felt an indescribable sadness in her heart.She held onto her and reassuringly said, "Alright, we will make sure that Royce gets the justice he deserves.""I'm feeling very sorrowful now. I want to go home."Lena pulled away from Margot's embrace and tried hard to hold back her emotions. She wiped the tears from her cheeks with her hand and stood up to leave."I'll give you a ride."Margot stood up and left.Curtis didn't feel comfortable letting the two women go
Edna didn't want to give up just like that and couldn't help but try one more time. "Geralt, they say your aversion is just a psychological issue and can be improved gradually. You don't have to…""I've always been like this since I was a kid, and I can't change it."Daniel didn't want to waste each other's time, nor did he want to hold Edna back.He straightforwardly suggested, "Let's end our marriage. It's better for you this way."Even if they didn't end the marriage, he probably wouldn't ever go near her again in this lifetime.This wasn't fair to her. Thus, ending the marriage really was for her own good."What did you say?"Edna felt a sharp pain in her chest, and with teary eyes, she looked pitifully at Daniel. "Did you really forget everything that happened between us once you recovered?" she asked."With all those memories, don't you have even a little bit of affection for me?"If he had truly liked her in his heart, then how could he have possibly rejected or dislike
