Margot took over the bucket and was surprised to see that there really were two fish inside.She couldn't believe it.Margot asked, "You cheated, didn't you? You rushed back and asked someone to prepare these for you while I was in the washroom, right?"Curtis calmly replied, "There are surveillance cameras on the lighthouse. They should have a record of the moment when I caught the fish. I'll bring you to check the surveillance cameras tomorrow."The temperature difference by the beach was large during the night. Curtis lifted his hand and placed it on Margot's back.Curtis said, "Let's go back to the room. I'll get someone to cook these for you tomorrow."Margot believed him for now.She then recalled something and said, "Your secretary was looking for you. She said she had some documents for you to sign."Upon hearing that, Curtis halted his steps and looked toward Margot.He asked, "What did you say?"Margot was looking at him with a frown as she replied, "Your secretary.
Curtis brought Tammy out of the hotel on purpose.He did not want to talk to her any more than necessary.He then called the island's administrators to kick Tammy off the island.However, Tammy was unwilling.She shouted at Curtis, who was still making the phone call, and said, "You can't do this to me! If you kick me out now, I'll tell Margot that I used to be your fiancée, and you broke your promise to me and married her. She's the real mistress here!"Curtis lowered the phone that was on his ear. He had a sinister look with a cold gaze.The words that came out of his mouth were even more terrifying."Do you want to die?"Tamm responded recklessly, "Either you let me stay by your side as your secretary, or I'll tell Margot the truth."Curtis laughed suddenly. His laughter was rampant and vicious.He said, "I've never been threatened by others before."He stood there with an overwhelming air about him.Tammy unconsciously stepped backward when she saw the way he was.She
Margot was speechless as she looked at Tammy in shock.She suddenly felt numb after hearing Tammy's words.She stood still as she was unable to accept the reality.At that moment, someone came knocking on her door."Are you asleep, Margot?"It was Curtis' voice.Margot suddenly felt her mind go blank.She stumbled back onto her bed.Tammy knew that she couldn't escape anymore, but her goal was already achieved.She took the initiative to open the door.Curtis stood tall and proud at the entrance. His expression darkened when he saw Tammy. He looked terrifying."Take her away," Curtis ordered.The bodyguards immediately went forward and dragged Tammy away.Tammy did not struggle this time. She was even laughing when she was being dragged away.Her laughter sounded harsh.Curtis strode into the room and saw Margot sitting on the bed and staring blankly out the window.He walked closer to her and asked, "Did Tammy do anything to you?"Margot did not reply. Her mind was re
Divorce?Upon hearing this word, Curtis felt his heart give a sharp jolt.He watched Margot, who was on the bed, and said with a deep voice, "I don't care what Tammy said to you, Margot, but I won't divorce you. Everything will be proven in time if you don't believe me.""My time is precious. I don't want to waste it on you," Margot answered indifferently.Since God had made her forget her past sufferings, she wouldn't have anything to do with Curtis anymore.Margot decided to cut him off when she still had no feelings toward him."Margot …" Curtis spoke as if he wanted to give more excuses.However, Margot had already fallen back onto the bed.She coldly said, "You should leave. I'm sleeping soon."Curtis could only leave.Margot closed her eyes and tried to recall everything about Curtis while she curled under the blankets.She wanted to remember the baby she used to have, but she couldn't recall anything.When she tried thinking further, her head started hurting.Margot
"Tammy came over just now and told me that I was pregnant, but Curtis didn't believe that the baby was his, so he got someone to cause my miscarriage. Tammy also said that Curtis was the one who made me jump into the river and commit suicide."Margot couldn't hold back her emotions and cried.She continued, "I wanted to give him a chance, Tommy. But I cannot accept the fact that I had a miscarriage."Besides, why would I remember everyone but him and Tammy? Perhaps I subconsciously wanted to forget about him."Perhaps those memories were too painful. Since I've already forgotten about it, then I shouldn't try to recall it. I don't want to stay by his side and let the same things happen again."Margot wanted to leave Curtis before she could cry over him.She wanted to cut him from her life while her heart still wouldn't hurt.Tommy couldn't advise any further when he heard Margot's words.He had always suspected that Curtis had something to do with Margot's suicide.If it was l
Curtis didn't know what Tammy had told Margot, to the point that Margot thought he was the one who caused her miscarriage.He tried to explain, "I told you that I didn't even know you were pregnant. I only went over after you got hospitalized for your miscarriage.""When did I have my miscarriage?" Margot asked coldly.She didn't want to argue with him.Curtis thought briefly before replying, "Over a month ago."Margot asked, "Over a month ago? It's been a good half month since I regained consciousness after that incident, right? So you're saying that you brought me down to work with you in the countryside not long after I miscarried?"Curtis replied, "Back then, I …"Margot said, "I don't care how you treated me before this, Curtis. I also don't care why I married you."But I really can't live together with you. I hope we can get divorced after this trip. We'll part amicably, okay?"Tommy said that she would never win against Curtis if they were to bring the matter to court.
Margot finally finished her vacation. The first thing she did once she got home was to find Curtis for the divorce.Margot sat in the living room of the villa. She was looking through the marriage certificate that Doris had gotten out for her.She looked at the date of the certificate and saw that she had only married Curtis for eight months.They had only been married for eight months, but so much had happened.She looked at the time. It was 7:00 pm.Margot asked Doris, "When is Curtis coming back?"Doris had just finished preparing for dinner.She looked up at Margot and replied, "I'm not sure about this. He has not been back since you've gone on your vacation. I'm not sure if he'll be back tonight either."Margot told Doris, "Then can you call him and ask him to come back? Just tell him that I have some matters to find him."Doris replied, "Alright."Before Curtis came back, Margot returned to her room to pack up her baggage.Her semester will start in a few days. She has
Margot didn't believe in Curtis' lies at all.If he could make her happy, he wouldn't have suspected that the baby she was carrying belonged to someone else and caused her miscarriage.If he could make her happy, would she be despaired to the point of jumping into the river to commit suicide?A leopard can't change its spots, after all. Men were the same in Margot's eyes.She would just take their words with a grain of salt and not believe it.Margot said, "I've already made up my mind regardless. Either you draft the divorce agreement as soon as possible so I can sign it, and we can part amicably."Or I'll make you regret it if you don't want to get a divorce with me."Margot was resolute.Curtis looked at her helplessly and said in a low voice, "Then you should show me how much I will regret it."He didn't want to discuss the matter with her anymore, so he said, "Once you're done, you should come down and have dinner."He then left the room.When Margot turned around aga
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
