Daniel didn't understand what was going on with Zyla. Why didn't she recognize him anymore?Anthony followed along and quickly apologized to Edna, saying, "Sorry, Edna. We were a bit overeager. Zyla is our sister, and that's why my brother and I came to visit her. Please don't mind us."Edna was surprised and asked, "Is Zyla your sister? Isn't your sister Margot?"Anthony said, "It's a long story, but please keep it confidential for us. I'll take Daniel and leave for now. You all get some rest."As he spoke, he hurriedly reached out to grab Daniel."Let's go, Daniel. Let's not disturb their rest," Anthony said.After confirming that Zyla was alive and the one he recognized, Daniel finally left with Anthony.As he stepped out of the room, he asked, "Why has Zyla changed like that? Why doesn't she recognize us?"Anthony explained, "The poison she ingested was extremely potent, and saving her life was no easy task. However, after regaining consciousness, her mental state is now eq
"I don't want to! I just want to be with Mom," Zyla said. She clung to Rosa's clothes tightly. Her face scrunched up as big tears rolled down her cheeks. "Mom, please don't leave Zyla. Don't…"Rosa looked at her and couldn't help but feel her heart ache slightly. She looked at Edna.Edna looked at Daniel and asked, "Isn't she your sister? Pull her away."Daniel suddenly remembered Anthony saying that Zyla had the intelligence of a three-year-old child.Although it was unclear why Zyla thought of Rosa as her own mom, it seemed like she just wanted to be with them for now.To fulfill her wish, Daniel suggested, "Why don't you all stay here?""Do you think that's possible?"Edna didn't want to stay, so she persisted in heading toward the door.Daniel stepped forward to stop her. "Edna, I know you're upset with me, but if you leave, I won't be able to explain it to Margot. Wasn't it Margot who arranged for you to stay here?"Edna didn't make things difficult for him, so she said,
"Daniel, why are you still standing there? Come over and bring your mother-in-law back in," Anthony instructed.Daniel was still quite passive about trying to stop them from leaving.But when he thought about how Zyla needed them as a family, he gathered his courage and came over, saying softly, "Edna, please stay."Edna realized that there was no way she could leave.She had no choice but to go back into the house and look for another opportunity to leave instead.Anthony quickly took Rosa's luggage and handed it to Daniel, glaring at him. "Bring Ms. Johnson back and take good care of them. If anything happens to them, there will be serious consequences between you and me."He knew that even though Daniel had feelings for Zyla, they weren't meant to be together in this life. Because Zyla would never like Daniel, and Daniel would never force Zyla to reciprocate his feelings.So, the perfect match for Daniel had to be Edna.After seeing them enter the house, Anthony instructed t
Margot felt like Anthony was talking about something fantastical and impossible. She felt really confused and had trouble processing everything immediately.Looking at Curtis, she asked, "Can you understand what Anthony is saying?"Curtis reached out and shook Margot's hand, nodding. "I understood."Margot asked again, "Do you believe it?"Curtis looked at Anthony and said, "He doesn't look like he's joking with us."Even though Curtis found it hard to believe, it didn't seem like Anthony was lying when he looked at his current state.There was no way he would come over and tell them that Royce and Zyla were still alive without any reason.He wouldn't have made a special trip back to Amberville just to clarify things with them if it were untrue."I don't believe it," Margot said. She seemed a bit dazed as she glanced over at Anthony."Anthony, I can't believe it. Royce ingested the poison right in front of me. He vomited so much blood after he was poisoned. And although I didn
"However, I feel like Edna still wants to leave, so another reason I came over is because I want you to try to persuade her to stay. I'll do my best to help Daniel overcome his aversion as soon as possible," Anthony said.Margot was surprised and asked, "Is Daniel also at Alice Manor?""Yes."Margot was speechless. Did that mean he met Edna? But Edna didn't want to meet Daniel at all.What should they do now?"It's very simple to keep Edna here," Curtis suddenly said. He looked at Anthony. "Edna is pregnant. Go back and tell Daniel to treat her well. Edna is likely willing to stay for the child's sake and live a good life with him."He thought that Edna being pregnant was something that should be told to Daniel as soon as possible.Even if Daniel wasn't that dependable, he would still take responsibility for his child, right? As someone in his 30s, he naturally would have the desire to become a father and have a child."What did you say?" Anthony asked, shocked.Anthony looked
"If not, Margot won't forgive you, and none of us will forgive you either." Anthony said mysteriously.Turning to look at Anthony, Daniel had a gloomy expression. "Haven't I made myself clear enough? There's no way anything will happen between me and Edna."You need to make it work with her no matter what.""Why?""Because…"While staring at Daniel, Anthony hinted indirectly, "I'm going to be an uncle."Daniel didn't understand what Anthony was trying to imply. "What does you being an uncle have to do with me and Edna?""It matters because your child is in Edna's belly. If Edna has the child, wouldn't they have to call me uncle?"His statement was clear enough, right?Suddenly, the implications clicked in Daniel's mind. He was shocked. He stared intently at Anthony and was hardly able to believe it. "Are you joking with me?"Anthony huffed. "Do I look like I'm joking? Curtis told me himself, and Margot also confirmed it."Daniel was at a loss for words. Was Edna pregnant wit
When Edna saw Daniel come in with a fruit platter, she sat there with a heart full of sadness, gazing at him. She wasn't not sure if he brought the fruit for himself or if it was meant for Zyla.Zyla, upon seeing there was food, quickly got up and went over to get some.She smiled as she picked a few cherries from the tray Daniel was holding and handed them to Edna. "Eat up, Edna."Edna shook her head and said, "You eat. I'm not hungry."Daniel placed the tray in front of Edna and crouched down beside her, saying, "I prepared this especially for you. Enjoy it."Edna looked at him and felt an inexplicable ache in her heart.She said, "I don't need it. You also don't have to force yourself to be nice to me. We're no longer in a relationship, and if we meet again, we'll just be strangers."She would have left if she could. She really didn't want to stay here any longer.She kept reminding herself not to get emotional or to weaken her resolve. Daniel was unlikely to ever like her o
After several sleepless nights and intense study by Anthony, Royce finally showed some signs of progress. He felt a sense of relief when Royce slowly opened his eyes.Anthony was thrilled. The first thing he did when he left the lab was call Lena.Lena's attitude toward him has always been calm. Even if she received his call, she remained extremely casual."What's going on?" Lena asked.Anthony stood in the manor's garden with a smile on his face. His voice sounded as gentle and pleasant as a summer breeze."Honey, can you come over to Amberville? I have a surprise for you," he said.He had been planning to wait until their wedding to tell Lena about Royce.However, after thinking about how he had already told Margot, he figured that she would tell Natalie sooner or later. Eventually, even Lena would come to know about what he did.Instead of putting it off and risking her finding out later, it would be better to tell her in advance.Maybe if he mentioned it earlier, Lena migh
