After preparing the medicine and placing it in the saucepan to simmer, Solace crouched next to Jordan and asked him, "Are you really not staying here and going down the mountain with your parents instead?"

Jordan nodded, looking at Solace with a face full of reluctance.

"That's right. Master said you can come down the mountain with us. As long as I'm here, you'll be fine. Are you really not planning to come with us?"

Solace sat next to him, looking deflated, and shook her head. "They're not my parents, so I don't want to go with them.

"If I leave, Master will miss me. Master treats me so well. I don't want to be apart from him."

However, just as Solace was speaking, Curtis happened to arrive at the kitchen's doorway and overheard her.

He stopped in his tracks, feeling a bit of an ache in his chest. Silly girl, they were her mom and dad.

Was there anything more cruel in this world than a situation where a biologically related father and daughter couldn't acknowledge each other?

    It was also Solace's last two sentences that made eight-year-old Jordan firmly make up his mind in his heart. He was determined to become the most powerful person in the world.He needed to be even more commendable than she was. That way, he could defeat Solace and marry her.Curtis stood at the door listening to the conversation between the two children and couldn't help but laugh.When he saw that it was getting late, he deliberately raised his hand and knocked on the door.The two children quickly looked toward the door. When they saw it was Curtis, Jordan hurriedly stood up and exclaimed, "Dad.""Yeah."Curtis nodded as he walked in.Solace also shouted, "Uncle Curtis, why aren't you accompanying your wife? What are you doing over here?""I'm here to check if the medicine is ready." Curtis approached the two children and asked them, "What were you two talking about just now?""Nothing much."Jordan, feeling shy, busied himself by avoiding eye contact with Curtis. He conti

    Curtis kindly made space for Branden to join him. Of course, he didn't just sit around, either. He was busy with his own tasks and helping out here and there when he could."I wouldn't have guessed it, but you're truly a jack-of-all-trades and skilled at everything," Curtis said to Branden.The main fact was that Branden was so young. How did he manage to maintain himself so well?Curtis felt it was important to learn from him.Branden smiled faintly and praised in return, "Mr. Crosby used to be someone who made billions in the blink of an eye working in an office, but who would have thought he would also be so skilled and at ease in the kitchen."Curtis felt a bit emotional as he talked about that topic. "I have no choice. Taking care of my wife and kids is a responsibility I must fulfill."Which man nowadays didn't know how to do laundry, cook, and do housework? Those who weren't capable often found it hard to get married. Even if there was a housekeeper or a chef at home, a ma

    Curtis was taken aback. "So this meal is…"Branden didn't deny it. "After you finish eating, you can head down the mountain. If Solace doesn't want to go back with you, then I'll keep her with me. You can just take Jordan back."Curtis nodded and said, "Alright."But when he thought about going down the mountain today, he suddenly felt reluctant to leave.He put aside what he was doing and told Branden,"Alright, you keep at it. I'll take the medicine over to Margot and have a chat with our daughter while I'm at it.""Go and ask Jace to come and help me.""Okay."…After finishing their morning exercises, the children all headed to the dining hall for their meal.Curtis first returned to Margot's room.Margot had just woken up and was currently getting dressed. When she saw Curtis walk in, she asked, "Where did you go so early in the morning?"Perhaps due to her scare yesterday, she slept quite deeply and didn't even notice when Curtis and Solace got up. When she woke up, b

    The disciples broke out into surprised chatter. "I haven't tried the food made by Master either.""I just found out that Master can cook.""So, what are we eating today?"The group of children, full of anticipation, gathered around Margot and Curtis as they headed to the dining hall.Curtis held his daughter in his arms and watched her face light up with a bright smile. Despite the joy on her face, he felt an indescribable ache and heaviness in his heart.Margot was also watching her daughter. She raised her hand to tidy Lilac's hair, slightly tousled by the breeze, and suddenly felt a wave of melancholy.It felt like there was dust in her eyes.Solace noticed the sadness on Margot's face and suddenly furrowed her brows as she asked, "Aunt Margot, what's wrong? Why are your eyes red?"Margot took a moment to calm herself and smiled, saying, "It's nothing. The wind was a bit strong just now. Maybe some dust got into my eyes.""Then I'll blow it away for you," she said as she re

    "This one, in particular, is really delicious. I've never tried a dish this good before," another disciple said.Branden was well aware of the thoughts the apprentices had in their minds. It probably didn't taste good.Despite feeling a bit down, he smiled and said to Margot and Curtis, "Let's just make do. After all, it's the last meal anyway."Upon hearing that final phrase, a wave of bitterness welled up in the hearts of Margot and Curtis once again. Their eyes simultaneously turned to look at their beloved daughter.Solace thought that the food tasted really bad. She stopped eating, pouting slightly as she looked at Branden, her face showing a look of utter helplessness."Master, if you don't know how to cook, you shouldn't do it. You're wasting so many ingredients, especially this chicken—you ruined it."Branden looked at his young apprentice. Out of all his apprentices, she was the only one who truly dared to speak her mind.He couldn't help feeling amused and helpless. He

    After watching Jordan's actions and listening to what he said, Branden couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.Among all his apprentices, this one was the most mischievous and troublesome.Branden didn't expect that when he was leaving, he would be considerate enough to express gratitude to him. It seemed like it was definitely worth saving him.Branden reached out to pull him up, saying, "Stand up. I'm not expecting you to achieve anything grand in the future. Just listen to your parents, and that's enough."Jordan looked up, tears in his eyes, gazing at Branden. "I will listen to my parents, Master. Don't worry.""That's good then."They were still having dinner, and then suddenly, Jordan had started this dramatic emotional scene.With a smile, Branden signaled to everyone. "Let's eat first. Once we've eaten, we can take our time to talk."Everyone gathered and took their seats around the table. But no one could enjoy the meal again.The atmosphere at the dining table was

    Solace responded by pulling away from Margot's embrace and quickly reached up with her hand to wipe away the tears on her cheek."Aunt Margot, please don't cry. Not only did you get your illness treated, but you also gained a son, right?""Yes. We gained a lot from this, especially since we now have another son."Margot tried hard to keep her emotions in check, but she just couldn't control her tears from falling. Only heaven knew how difficult and heartbreaking it was for her to be separated from her daughter right now.She couldn't resist hugging Solace tightly again, not wanting to let go even for a moment.Curtis was crouching next to them, feeling quite uneasy. Because he was rational, he knew they had to leave the mountain no matter how reluctant they were. Otherwise, it would get dark soon.He held back his tears in front of all the children, pulled Margot's hand, and said, "Let her go. We'll meet again in the future."Margot had no choice but to let go.Curtis gently tu

    While holding Curtis' hand with one hand and Margot's hand with the other, Jordan looked up at them and said, "Don't worry, Mom and Dad. Solace is very happy on the mountain. Master is teaching her to speak the language of animals, and she can communicate with many of them."Also, the senior disciples treat her exceptionally well. They never let her do any work, and whatever she wants to eat, they make it for her."Master also spoils her a lot."Upon hearing what Jordan said, Margot and Curtis felt a bit better.They looked at Jordan and felt a sense of comfort.They never expected that by going up the mountain, they would not only fulfill their wishes but also unexpectedly obtain a son.Branden had done them a tremendous favor, and they wondered how they could ever repay him for his kindness.…At that time, at the abbey's gate, after all the disciples dispersed, only Branden remained, standing there alone. He gazed at the path down the mountain, his heart filled with mixed e

    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

    "How do you think my sister is doing over there? Is Calvin treating her and her son well?"Tommy believed that Curtis, no matter what, grew up together with his sister.He would definitely tell the truth.Unlike his little nephew, who often sided with outsiders and only highlighted their good qualities.Curtis laughed. "If someone were to say that your sister is the happiest woman in the world right now, it wouldn't be an exaggeration at all.During the month of postpartum confinement, Calvin stayed by her side constantly. Even though they were in a maternity center, he personally took care of both children. Your sister married him, you can be completely assured about it. She will only be happier, and he's taking great care of Benjamin too."Calvin was known for his impeccable character and conduct.Tommy felt relieved after hearing that.As long as his sister wasn't being mistreated over there, it was all good.He thought he still needed to take his parents to visit his siste

    Laura felt that she just couldn't stand being alone with Tommy.It felt as though the air was so thin that she couldn't breathe properly.She didn't even want to respond to the last remark. She got up without looking at him and walked straight toward the stairs.Tommy watched her walk away and sighed helplessly.It was good that she was aware of keeping a certain distance from him.At this moment, Jordan came over holding water and handed it to Tommy with both hands."Here's some water for you.""Alright, thank you."Tommy took the mug, pulled the child to sit next to him, and asked, “What’s your name?”"Jordan Crosby."Previously, his master gave him the name Jordan Mahome.After coming back with Margot and Curtis, they gave him the family surname.So now he was called Jordan Crosby.He really liked this name, too."Jordan Crosby, that's a nice-sounding name. So how old are you?" Tommy asked with a smile.Jordan laughed along and asked, "I'm eight years old. How about y

    Ashley sighed."Natalie has always been someone who only shares the good news and keeps the bad to herself. She's always been a child you can't help but feel for. Thankfully, she married such a great person like your eldest brother, which means she can live a happy life."Both Elias and Ashley were well aware of Calvin's character.Back when Curtis had an accident and lost his memory, it was Calvin who stepped in and took care of everything for their family.A man who was both capable and responsible, and held a high position of power, marrying Natalie, who had been married before, indicated that he truly loved Natalie.Fortunately, Natalie lived up to expectations and gave birth to a set of fraternal twins for Calvin."She is genuinely happy right now," said Margot with a smile.She just didn't know how long her father planned to keep doing this.He really shouldn't bring that woman home; it would disgust Calvin and Natalie."Then I'll call the Nelsons in a bit to ask when th

    When Margot and they returned to Amberville, it was already evening.Anthony didn't go with Lena and Margot to the Crosby Residence; instead, he went to Alice Manor.There was no one there, and Edna's mother had also been taken to Emeria to settle down.It was just the perfect romantic time for the two of them.When Margot and Curtis walked through the front door holding their son, they happened to catch their parents having dinner with the two kids.Jordan was the first to see them coming back, and he jumped up excitedly and shouted, "Dad, Mom, you're back!"He was so happy that he quickly got up from his chair and ran toward them.Margot opened her arms to embrace the child running toward her, with an apologetic look on her face."I'm sorry, Jordan. Ever since I brought you back, I haven't had any time to spend with you. You don't blame me, do you?"She'd been gone for about a month.It’d been such a long time, and she imagined that not being able to see her must have made

    It felt like he could suffocate to death at any moment.Yasmine didn't care about his situation; she just angrily asked:"Are you really just letting them leave like that? They're not taking you back to live in that mansion-like palace?"Her younger brother told her that this was not the Morris family home. The place where the Morris family lived was as luxurious as a palace they would see on TV, as if it was built with piles of money.She also wanted to broaden her horizons.Frederick struggled for quite a while before he could breathe easily again.Looking at the woman beside his leg, he lowered his head and said helplessly, "I'm in such a state that I can't do anything, and if they don't listen to me, what can I do? There's no need to go back, I'll just stay here with you from now on."He would be upset if he went back anyway, so it might be better for him to stay here with Yasmine and gradually nurse himself back to health while waiting for Anthony's prosthetic to be complet

    After hearing what Daniel said, Calvin didn't pause for a moment and quickly drove back.He didn't go home to get the military seal; instead, he went empty-handed to where Yasmine lived.Just as he reached the front entrance, he heard the sound of a woman crying coming from inside the house.Daniel, who was standing at the door, saw Calvin approaching and went up to greet him:"That woman is so malicious. Not only did she slander us in front of Dad by claiming we aborted her child, but she also said we mistreated her. Just listen to her cries, they're loud enough to pierce the sky."Calvin didn't pay much attention and walked past Daniel into the house.In the living room, Yasmine was lying next to Frederick's legs, crying uncontrollably, looking truly pitiful.Frederick couldn't stand seeing his woman like this. He raised his hand, gently placed it on her head, and said sternly:"Yasmine, don't cry. I will seek justice for you and the child."As he looked up, he saw Caklvin a
