Even if there really were a hare right beneath the tree roots, and Anthony's flashlight was shining directly on it, Curtis still wouldn't grab it.Anthony laughed at Curtis."You're really cautious after that bad experience. Let me handle it."He reached in and easily pulled out two hares from the hole.One was a male, and the other was a female.They were taken to the streamside to be killed and prepared before being brought back. If they brought the hares back directly after capturing them, it might make the others unwilling to kill them out of pity. It was 10:00 pm.Jordan was already asleep in Calvin's tent.Margot didn't want to go to bed until Curtis returned, so she sat around the fire chatting with Calvin.Seeing Anthony and Curtis return, she quickly stood up and asked, "Did you catch them?"Anthony shook the two neatly-skinned hares in his hand and laughed."When I take action, nothing slips past me. However, it's getting late, Margot, so go rest for now. I'll hav
Margot was jealous since her husband would rather think about a toad than about her.Curtis, feeling a bit resigned, said, "Alright, alright. It's my fault. I'll go to sleep."He pulled Margot into a hug and planted a ferocious kiss on her before holding her head against his chest.That night, surprisingly, Curtis and Margot slept very soundly until the next morning.Curtis woke up early and made sure not to disturb Margot, allowing her to continue sleeping.He stepped lightly out of the tent and noticed Calvin was already roasting hares. The delicious aroma filled the air, making his mouth water.He walked over, crouched beside Calvin, and remarked, "I can smell your roast from miles away."Calvin glanced at him and asked, "Why not sleep in a bit longer? It's still early.""I couldn't sleep after getting a whiff of that heavenly aroma. Where's Anthony?""He stayed up last night, and now he's finally catching up on some sleep."Calvin recalled the video Anthony showed him las
It was as if each person had vanished into thin air.Calvin was quite surprised that Gabriel was tactfully keeping quiet at this moment.Anthony said, "What's the point of telling you? It would just make another person worry. See, it turned out fine that you're finding out now. Curtis is okay."Gabriel looked at Curtis again and asked, "Are you really okay?""Yes, look, I'm doing just fine now, aren't I?"Curtis spread his arms wide to show off his well-toned physique and even did a spin to demonstrate how healthy he was.Gabriel stopped complaining and gestured toward the car nearby, saying, "Get in, I'll drive you all back."Several people got into his car without hesitation.While in the car, Gabriel glanced at young Jordan through the rearview mirror.Seeing Margot holding onto him, he asked, "Who's this child, Margot? How did he end up with you?"Margot looked at little Jordan and smiled, saying, "That's my son.""Your son? When did you have such a grown son?""That's
Lena never expected that they would bring Jordan along.She went over to the child with a delighted expression and gave him a hug."How did you end up going down the mountain with them? Don't tell me you snuck away from Master on your own."Jordan had a very proud smile on his face."That's not true, I only came down the mountain because Master agreed to it. Lena, what are you doing here?""Take a guess."Lena smiled, gently stroked the child's head, and looked at Margot and the others with a slightly suspicious gaze."Can someone tell me why my master sent him down the mountain to meet with you?"Margot came over holding Louis and sat next to Jordan, saying, "Your master has given him to me as a son, so he is now my son."Lena's eyes widened in shock, unable to believe what she was seeing."What did you say?"Curtis said, "That's right, your junior here is actually our son."Jordan also said, "Lena, you'll be happy for me too, right? I finally have a mom and dad."Lena wa
"Don't call me Grand-Aunt. How old do you think I am? Your name is Jordan, right? Just call me Miss. Let's go have some fun.""Okay."Jordan saw that his mother was silent, so he agreed with what Laura said.After seeing the two children out the door, Margot shook her head and said, "Our family's seniority is a mess.""Exactly."Lena also felt that it was a mess.Lena thought about how Natalie called her every day to ask about Margot. Lena reminded Margot."Margot, you should give Natalie a call back. While you guys were away, she constantly asked me how you were doing."Margot also thought it was time to check in with Natalie and Daniel, so she took out her cell phone to give them a call.As soon as the call connected. She said, "Natalie, Curtis and I have returned safely. Rest assured, he is fine now." Natalie's number was dialed. However, the person who answered was Edna.Edna spoke, "I'm glad you're all safe. What about Calvin? Has he returned?"Margot furrowed her bro
Curtis saw them off while carrying Jordan.Gabriel was the only one who stayed behind.He was still sitting in the dining room. Even though he didn't express any concern, he sincerely wished that Natalie and the child would be safe.Time really flew by.In the blink of an eye, Natalie remarried and had children.He, too, had remarried and had children.He wished that both of their families would be blessed and happy.No, he wished that all of them could live the life they wanted, filled with harmony and well-being.The Morris family's private hospital was located in Emeria.Daniel also waited outside the operating room. He saw how worried Edna was. Knowing that she was also pregnant, he approached her to offer some comfort."Don't worry, Natalie and the child will be fine. Also, take care of the baby in your belly to prevent a miscarriage."Edna said, "How could I not be worried? Natalie wasn't due yet. She's having premature labor. Do you know how risky that can be?"Espec
Margot sat beside Calvin and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, Calvin. Natalie and the child will definitely be safe."Calvin shook his head and said gravely, "It wasn't her due date yet. It's a month early.""Even if it's early labor, both Natalie and the child will be alright, so try not to worry," said Margot.Lena said, "She's right, Calvin. The survival rate for premature babies is quite high nowadays. Natalie is in good health. Although she's considered an advanced maternal age, this is her second pregnancy. Everything should be fine."How could Calvin not be worried? At his age, he finally married the woman he longed for and had children of his own.If something were to happen to the children and their mother, he wouldn't know what to do.It was his first time being so paranoid as well as his first time experiencing true fear.Anthony saw how Calvin's restlessness was scaring both Margot and Lena. So, he said reassuringly, "Don't let Margot and Lena worry about you. Aren'
Calvin pushed Daniel aside after hearing his words and rushed toward the ward ahead.He burst through the door and saw Natalie sitting on the bed. She looked pale.He hurried over, his voice filled with worry as he asked, "How are you, darling? Are you alright? Does it hurt?"Natalie had just given birth and was still weak.She vaguely remembered that Edna had told her Margot and the others were fine and had already returned home.What she hadn't expected was that Calvin would rush over.Natalie saw Margot and Lena walking into the room. Natalie gave them a weak smile and said, "Relax, I'm fine now. The doctor said I'll recover in two days with rest."Natalie then gestured to the incubator, where two babies lay wearing nothing but diapers. She happily said, "Look at them—they're so tiny and adorable."Only then did Calvin turn his attention to the incubator next to Benjamin.He looked at the two babies inside. They appeared to be fast asleep with their fingers tucked in their
Curtis didn't argue with her, and instead, he took her hand and led her inside.Margot noticed that despite Curtis' stern demeanor, he still showed care for her through his actions. She smiled knowingly and playfully asked while walking beside him, "What, can't find me at certain times and you're worried I ran off with someone else?"Curtis glanced at her and scoffed."Would you dare? If you dare run off with someone else, I'll break your legs."Despite speaking harsh words, the expression on the face and the gaze in the eyes directed at Margot were so gentle, it seemed as if they could bring forth tears.Margot listened to his violent words and stared at him, "Say it again, whose legs are you going to break?"Curtis was standing there. Although he still had a bit of presence, his facial expression already showed defeat.Before he could try to please his wife again, Margot had already brushed past him and slipped through the mansion's front doors.While running, he shouted, "An
So Gabriel had to personally drive her wherever she needed to go.Curtis listened to the two people and narrowed his eyes again."Who else?""Anthony."Anthony?Curtis was momentarily taken aback.Then, he saw Anthony coming out of the kitchen wearing an apron and carrying a plate, and walking into the dining room.He set down his coat and told Luna, "You sit, I'll go help.""Go ahead."Curtis followed into the kitchen and saw that Anthony and Gabriel were acting as if they were in their own home, helping themselves to whatever they wanted to eat and making it themselves.He also felt a bit embarrassed and walked over, saying, "It's not right to have you cook since you're visiting, let me do it instead."Gabriel glanced at him and said, "We all treat you like one of us, so why are you being so formal with us?"Anthony responded, "I'm making it for my wife, after all, she only eats the food that I make."Curtis shook his head helplessly.They were showing off their relatio
Margot and Lena turned their heads at the same time.Jordan was dressed in a British-style uniform with a backpack. At eight years old, he stood around four feet tall. His smile was like a little ray of sunshine and could really brighten anyone's day.He shouted, "Mom, Aunt Lena, did you come specifically to pick me up?"Every time Margot heard Jordan call her "mom," it filled her heart with warmth.She raised her hand to give him a hug, gently ruffled his hair, and said, "Of course I'm here to pick you up, get in the car.""It's been a month since I last saw you, and you've grown taller."Lena pulled Jordan onto the vehicle and started driving.Sitting in the car, Jordan couldn't help but smile as he looked at his senior.Lena looked at him and smiled, "Living here, how does it compare to being up in the mountains?"Jordan's eyes landed on Margot, filled with warmth and joy."Wherever my mom and dad are, I feel is the best place. Of course, I'm not saying that being with Mas
Margot greeted them with a smile, saying, "I thought you two would be quietly enjoying your romantic time at the estate. I didn't expect you'd come over to see us!"Lena reached out and gently pinched Louis' round cheeks, then looked at Margot and said, "You keep saying that, but you're not working, so why don't you come visit us?""I'm at home taking care of the kids. You have no idea how challenging it is.""Heh, you're just unfairly blaming Louis. Our little Louis is clearly very well-behaved."Lena ignored Margot and couldn't help but give Louis a couple of kisses after picking him up.Anthony walked over and asked, "Where is everyone else?"Margot motioned for them to come over and sit down, then poured them some water."Natalie just had her baby not long ago, and my in-laws went with Natalie's parents and the others to visit the babies, and they're also going to visit Dad."Whenever Anthony talked about his oblivious elderly father, he got frustrated.He didn't ask any m
Frederick, exuding the presence of the head of the family, welcomed the arriving in-laws with a smile.Afterwards, he behaved well and didn't mention anything about Yasmine, nor did he cause any trouble with his sons.The in-laws were very careful not to mention Frederick's injury, as they didn't want to hurt his pride.Daniel saw how lively it was at home and decided to bring Ena's mother over so that the in-laws could take the opportunity to get to know each other better.In the days that followed, everyone got along very well.In Amberville, Alice Manor.Anthony and Lena were enjoying a peaceful and romantic time together here. No one was bothering them, and they were not going out to work.The two of them spent the entire day cozied up at home.It involved either snacking while watching a movie or playing games followed by some cuddling and kissing.Anthony often made delicious food for Lena and took care of her so well that she seemed completely pampered.This caused Len
"If you won't let me bring her into the family, fine, I'll set up a large estate elsewhere. When the time comes, I won't let you in either."Daniel felt that his father was quite childish.He chuckled and said, "How about this, once the guests leave, I'll take you back to Yasmine. Then you can tell her that you've cut all ties with us and you want nothing. At that point, Yasmine is still willing to stay by your side and take care of you, then we'll do as you wish. How about that?Regarding the greedy Coran siblings, it was important to know that their father didn't have anything valuable left on him, and they wouldn't gain any benefits either.It would be surprising if she still stayed by Frederick's side."Don't underestimate people; Yasmine's love for me is genuine."Frederick didn't want to bet with Daniel.Human nature was something that shouldn't be gambled on.Daniel laughed again. "Are you afraid of losing, Dad?"Frederick stared at Daniel and said, "When have I ever be
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
