"Not to mention, we've given Yuuken quite a lot of money, enough for them to spend a lifetime."Frederick looked at his three sons in front of him.Seeing that none of them were complying with him, he was so angry that his chest heaved and his face turned dark."If your mother were still here, I wouldn't allow someone else into this home. But since she's no longer with us, is it not acceptable for me to have someone else take care of me?"Or are you saying that you just want to see me in a miserable state, unable to get out of bed, or even better, dead somewhere outside?"Oh, his sons really were something.Normally, they seemed very obedient and always listened to him.Right now, everyone seemed to be going against him.It seemed like they thought they had power in their hands and could do whatever they wanted without any consequences.The more they disobeyed him, the more Frederick felt he couldn't meet their expectations."With Mom gone, what about us?"Calvin responded b
Margot set down the tray and sat beside her father, handing him a set of cutleries. "I'm married now, so of course, I have to go back. But since Natalie had just given birth, I came over to check on her. I didn't expect to hear news about you again, so…"Frederick didn't feel like eating but he didn't want to disappoint his daughter's filial intentions. He took the bowl over, ate slowly, and said, "Margot, it hasn't been easy for me to return alive to all of you. We need to be grateful, you know!"Margot nodded and said, "Yes, Dad. We will treat the person who saved you well.""Treating her well is one thing, but look at me now. No matter who looks after me, I feel embarrassed. Why don't you talk to your brothers and ask them to bring Yasmine over? After all, she's been taking care of me for a while, and I'm used to it."Margot was speechless. Earlier, when he had returned, Frederick hadn't thought about bringing Yasmine into the house. But now, knowing that her mother was
No matter what was said, his children ultimately wouldn't agree with him. Feeling frustrated, Frederick set down his cutleries, leaned back against the headboard, and closed his eyes. "Alright, you can leave now. I'm going to rest."Margot glanced at the barely touched food and tried to persuade him. "You should eat a little.""I can't eat. I'm full from the anger you've all given me."Margot stopped trying. She stood up and carried the tray downstairs. In the luxurious and spacious living room downstairs, the three brothers, Edna, and Lena were sitting together and discussing their father's situation, trying to figure out how to handle the Coran siblings. As Margot walked downstairs with the tray, she overheard them and said, "Dad wants us to deal with Yuuken but keep Yasmine for now."Everyone looked up at her, and Anthony was quite surprised. "Dad wants us to deal with Yuuken?""Mmhm, I told him about Yuuken's poor character, and Dad listened to me. He said you could ha
Calvin would never let his sister pick up Curtis by herself. He said, "I'll go pick him up. You can go to the maternity center and spend some time with Natalie."Margot didn't argue with him and agreed. That evening, she prepared some food and went to the maternity center with Edna. In Natalie's room, seeing Edna and Margot each holding a baby, she asked worriedly, "So, in the end, that woman will be welcomed into the house?"She had heard about Frederick's situation and she was shocked. A man in his seventies was still able to have a woman carry his child... If words got out, how could his sons face the public? Did he not care about his own reputation anymore?"Judging by Dad's attitude, it seems he's determined to bring her into the house. We'll try to persuade him again."Margot didn't want Natalie to worry about family matters. She held the baby and walked over to Natalie. She changed the subject and said, "Natalie, look, this baby looks so much like you."Edna c
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
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
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
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
"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
