Gabriel pursued Curtis into the living room, bringing him to an abrupt halt. "Are you jealous?" Gabriel asked with a smirk.Curtis' face was flushed with anger as he walked into the living room and sat down. He was so angry that he could barely breathe.Gabriel sat down next to him and patted him on the shoulder. "You need to learn to accept it. After all, in her subconscious, she sees Tommy as you. Just pretend that her actions are directed at you.""How am I supposed to pretend when Tommy himself is a living, tangible person, and I have to watch them behave intimately in front of me? If it were you, would you be fine with it?"Curtis finally realized what it felt like to see someone he liked with someone else. That feeling was truly unpleasant.Gabriel huffed, "I think you should consider yourself lucky that she's still alive. Think about how you were when you couldn't find her then."Curtis was at a loss for words.Although he was grateful that Margot was still alive, no o
"Alright, alright. Go to sleep now. I'll only leave when you're asleep," Tommy said. Not wishing to keep him from heading to work any further, Margot closed her eyes immediately and succumbed to sleep.When she woke up again, it was already the next day.As expected, Tommy was nowhere to be seen.After washing up, Margot went downstairs, only to see the man named Curtis sitting in the living room, dressed in a suit and tie. He was surprisingly quite charming.Despite her surprise, Margot still looked wary as she entered the living room. "What are you doing at my place?"Curtis looked up from his laptop and met Margot's gaze. "I'm here to talk to Tommy about work. Is he still asleep?"Margot furrowed her brows and said, "He went back to the crew to film last night. Why didn't you call him if you wanted to talk to him?"Was this man really the CEO of Regal Enterprises?How could he be so dense?"Oh, I see. In that case, we'll have to put off work for now." Curtis packed up his
Margot had been waiting for Tommy for the past two days. However, Tommy had never taken the initiative to call or message her. Consequently, Margot's anxiety, panic, and fear escalated. Over time, her temper grew increasingly irritable.Curtis was so scared that he didn't even dare to show up and provoke her any further. He could only rely on Doris to keep him updated on Margot's situation.On Friday, Tommy finally returned to pick Margot up. When the car pulled up at the villa's entrance, he turned to Curtis and said, "I'll go in and get her.""Okay," Curtis responded faintly, his eyes gazing toward the direction of Margot's bedroom in the villa.Tommy got out of the car and walked into the villa. Upon reaching Margot's bedroom, he gently knocked on the door.Margot had had a throbbing headache and spent the entire day lying in bed, unwilling to get up or talk to anyone. She didn't even respond when she heard the knock on the door.However, the door wasn't locked, so Tommy pushe
Curtis had organized the destination for the trip, which happened to be on a private island. He was well aware of Margot's fondness for the sea.During one of his business trips, he happened to come across an auction for a tourist island. He bought it and renamed the island "Margotte Isle" without much thought.Initially, he planned to give the island to her as a gift on her birthday.However, since she wanted to go to the seaside right then, he decided to take her there to familiarize her with the environment.Two cars pulled up to Curtis' private airport, one after the other.Margot got out of the car and spotted Natalie and Gabriel in the distance. Although she was feeling down, she still ran toward them with a smile on her face. "Natalie!"Natalie turned around, spotted Margot approaching, and greeted her with a smile, "You're here, Margot!""I see that it's just the two of you here. Why didn't you bring your kid along?"Natalie smiled gently, took Margot's hand, and boarde
Margot felt a sense of an impending breakup looming over her as well.At that moment, she was probably feeling the same way as Curtis. Experiencing a common struggle, they probably had much to discuss."She's very stunning, and she's definitely one-of-a-kind. Although she's not exceptionally outstanding, I like her very much." Curtis gazed at the person frolicking before him, his eyes full of tenderness. It had been a long time since he had genuinely admired her.It became evident that his heart found contentment in her presence by simply gazing at her smiling face. It turned out that he had loved her all along.Margot clicked her tongue.Margot shook her head, glanced at the man beside her, and sighed. "You're so outstanding and good-looking. How could anyone bear to break up with you?"Curtis trailed behind her, his voice soft and regretful. "Maybe I didn't pay enough attention to her feelings back then. She must have been too disappointed in me, so she chose to leave me."M
Tommy skillfully maneuvered the speedboat to shore, then jumped off, holding a bouquet of white roses in his arms.With a lean stature and well-dressed figure, he walked toward Margot with a smile that could melt hearts.Although Margot was still upset, her anger instantly dispersed when she saw Tommy walking toward her with a bouquet of flowers.Tommy walked up to Margot and presented her with the flowers, ignoring the three people standing beside her."I'm sorry for coming late, Margot."Margot had always been someone easily persuaded. She would always forgive the person she loved as long as they treated her well and didn't do anything out of line.She accepted the flowers with a pout. Then, she uttered in a slightly annoyed tone, "I thought you weren't coming."Tommy gently pinched Margot's chubby cheeks and said with a smile, "Why wouldn't I come? I've already promised you that I'll accompany you."Margot, who was pinched by Tommy, blushed and threw herself into his arms.
Margot said, "Tommy, show me how the photos turned out."Tommy snapped out of his daze and lied to her. "I haven't gotten the settings right yet. Go back, and I'll take it again.""You're so slow," Margot grumbled as she walked toward the sea again.It was only then that Tommy seriously took some photos of her.When they had taken enough photos, they walked hand-in-hand along the beach.After walking for a while, Margot felt a bit tired and hot. She saw a coconut grove in the distance and said, "Tommy, let's take a break over there. The sunlight is so intense now.""Sounds good to me."Tommy held her hand as they walked into the coconut grove.They settled in a shady spot facing the sea. The sea breeze instantly made them cooler and refreshed.Margot leaned on Tommy's arm and then pointed to the glaring sun with a smile on her face."It's so beautiful here! The beach is a beautiful shade of pink, and the sky and the sea are crystal blue. Most importantly, I'm accompanied by s
Margot stared blankly at the tall man before her. She didn't understand what he was saying.What did he mean by saying any man can casually touch her and win her over?What did he take her for?Margot felt so humiliated, and she glared at Curtis with unbridled fury."Who are you to say that to me? Tommy is my husband, and what I do with him is none of your business. Who are you to judge others?" "He's not." Curtis angrily responded to Margot, his face a mask of fury."What did you just say?"Margot was suddenly caught off guard.Curtis glared at Tommy. Unable to withstand it, he revealed, "He is not your husband.""Do you think I don't know who my husband is? Why are you being so ridiculous?"Margot couldn't hold back and shouted again, angrily dragging Tommy along. "Let's go, Tommy. We shouldn't get involved with someone like him."However, Tommy withdrew his hand from her grip and looked at Margot, saying, "He's telling the truth.""What did you say?"Margot turned to l
Margot, in particular, stood up and asked, "How could that be?"Calvin explained, "She said she ate a lot of cold-natured food, and when the kitchen refused to make them for her, she got upset. It's unclear whether she did it on purpose or if she just really wanted to eat those things.""Does Dad know about this?" Curtis asked.Calvin looked at him and said, "How would he know? The two aren't even together.""If Dad finds out, he'll definitely cause trouble for us again," Margot said, as she sat back with Louis.They found it frustrating how their dad seemed like a completely different person."It's fine, even if things get chaotic, it's not like we as his children will end up as enemies."Calvin reassured his sister, "Don't worry about it, we'll take care of this."Margot nodded.However, when she considered everything, she realized that Yasmine had still cared for Frederick for quite some time.She felt it was important for her to go and see how others were doing.That aft
In the coming days, Daniel and Edna stayed at home to take care of Frederick.Calvin and Margot were taking care of Natalie at the maternity center, and they were also looking after Louis.As for Curtis, he had been going back and forth between home and the maternity center.Anthony, apart from being busy with work, had assigned people to keep an eye on all of Yasmine's activities.As soon as he sat down in his office, his assistant came in with a cell phone and reported, "Sir, there's something urgent."Anthony picked up the cell phone.On the other end of the phone, the subordinate reported, "Sir, something bad has happened, that woman had a miscarriage."When Anthony heard this, he quickly stood up and asked, "What's going on?""I have no idea what happened. She just kept eating and eating a lot of stuff, and then soon after she started complaining about stomach pain. When the doctor arrived, they announced she had a miscarriage.""Let me speak to the doctor."At first, he
"Could it be that he misses you and wants to bring you home?"Edna nodded with a smile.Natalie couldn’t help but say, "People in love are like this; they can't stand being apart for a few hours. You should head back quickly."Even though they were a married couple and already had kids.However, they might still be in the honeymoon phase.So Natalie and Margot understood the current situation between Edna and Daniel.Edna bowed her head, feeling quite embarrassed.She lowered her voice and said, "Daniel told me not to leave the room. He's coming to pick me up because it's raining outside."Her eyes were filled with joy and happiness.Margot and Natalie exchanged a glance and smiled at each other, genuinely happy for Edna.Of course, they were also relieved and pleased that Daniel had finally broken through his emotional defenses and genuinely accepted Edna.Daniel arrived half an hour later and brought a coat for Edna.He briefly greeted Natalie, checked on the two children
Louis was very happy to see his mom, sticking close to her all the time and not responding to her uncle's words at all.Margot didn't believe it for a second and left the house while holding Louis.In an instant, he caught sight of Curtis standing next to the wall.She looked at him somewhat resentfully. "What are you playing at with all this mystery? I actually thought Louis was sent by you."Curtis smiled and embraced both mother and child warmly."I wouldn't dare. If I lost the package with Louis inside, you would definitely be furious with me.""If you lose my Louis, I'm going to be really upset with you."Margot, ignoring Curtis, carried Louis into the room.Curtis followed her inside.Looking at Natalie on the bed, he smiled and said, "Congratulations! You got yourselves a pair of kids."Natalie had incredible luck; she ended up having twins, a boy and a girl, which was something that happened very rarely.Natalie responded with a smile, "Thank you, and I heard that on
Considering Frederick's current attitude toward the three brothers, sending the food personally would definitely make him angrier.So it was best for them to steer clear for now.In the dining room, four men were sitting together.Curtis rarely spent time alone with these three men, and it made him inexplicably anxious.He was worried that if he did anything they didn't like, they might "fire" him as their brother-in-law."After you resolved your brainwashing spell, there haven't been any complications, right?" Daniel asked.Curtis looked at him and said, "Not really, I've always been wearing this sachet that my daughter gave me. I've heard from Branden that it's supposed to protect me from brainwashing spells."Actually, that sachet only helped to relieve his headache.It was not to destroy the brainwashing spell.It was actually done by Branden on the sachet, using his special techniques.It was good that it got resolved.Daniel raised his beverage cup and said, "Congratul
Curtis was really taken aback. He had made a special trip from far away to see his father-in-law who had just returned, only to be met with such an unexpected attitude.However, being the junior, there was no choice but to keep smiling and continue on."Mr. Morris Senior, there's no need to get upset. It's not a big deal, and there's no need to have any unpleasantness within the family."Frederick glanced once more at Curtis, reminding himself that this was his daughter's husband, and made an effort to soften his expression."I really didn't want to have a conflict with them, but they insisted on going against me."Curtis stood nearby and cautiously began to speak, "I think you should focus on taking care of your health right now. Once they help you get the prosthetic fitted, and you're able to stand and walk, do you think they'll stop you from doing what you want?"First, Curtis came up with a temporary solution. Once the elder had calmed down over time and understood the challe
Calvin shook his head in exasperation and said, "When it comes to being self-absorbed, no one can compete with you."He asked the little kid in his arms, "Isn't that right, Louis? Are you happy to see your uncle?"Louis had a soft, fair complexion and a very adorable smile.Louis, who was quite smart, looked at Calvin with bright eyes and replied enthusiastically, though not very clearly, "Ha-happy, I feel happy to see uncle."Calvin exclaimed, "Wow, my little nephew is truly smart. You're just over a year old and already know how to respond to me.""You should think about who's the one who gave birth to him.""Heh."Seeing Curtis about to indulge in his narcissism again, Calvin glanced at him and scoffed, "You should consider who this child is born to. Don't forget, this little boy is half from the Morris family."Curtis was speechless.He didn't want to argue with him. He just stepped forward, opened the car door, and got in.Calvin carried the child and got on the bus.Th
Yuuken was terrified as he angrily shouted at Anthony, "What are you trying to do? I saved your father's life! Is this how you treat your benefactor?" Anthony was losing patience and he couldn't be bothered with any further explanations. He simply motioned to the men beside him. A group of bodyguards stepped forward and began beating Yuuken mercilessly. They struck him until he was sprawled on the ground, blood pouring from his mouth, unable to even crawl. He never imagined things would turn out this way. If he had known that returning with the Morris family would lead to such a fate, he would have taken the money he had already received and started a new life elsewhere.He looked up at Anthony and pleaded tearfully. "Mr. Morris, I know I was wrong! Please, spare me!"Anthony sat elegantly, exuding nobility, and glanced at him disdainfully. "Do you know why I had you beaten?"Yuuken thought for a moment before replying, "Is it because I wasn't satisfied even after taki
Yasmine thought about it and agreed. After all, this family seemed well-educated and reasonable. So, she relented to her brother. "Alright, you can go with him, but come back early. Later, you can take me to see it too.""Alright."After using his hand to wipe his mouth, Yuuken hurriedly walked toward Anthony and said, "Let's go, take me there now. Is the castle like the one your family lives in? Does it have lots of helpers and a butler? Are the household staff young? I don't want old women serving me"Anthony's expression darkened immediately as he turned to lead Yuuken out. His thin lips pressed into a tight line, and he chuckled coldly. "Don't worry. They're all young women in their twenties, beautiful as flowers.""Really?"Yuuken believed him and even patted Anthony on the back. "You really do get me."However, Anthony shot him a cold glare.His entire demeanor exuded icy hostility and it made Yuuken feel intimidated. He quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, alright? You
