But of course, who would like their love rivals?Margot wouldn't have liked Tammy at all, even if she were to meet her now.She then continued and asked, "How about Tammy then? What was her attitude toward me? Did she hate me?"Curtis thought for a while before replying, "I'm not sure what's in her mind, but her actions were rather generous. She has forgiven you multiple times for the things you've done to her."Margot was speechless.Upon watching Curtis and hearing the words he'd said, she somewhat knew what was going on now.Margot laughed for a bit before lowering her head to continue eating.Curtis asked, "Why were you laughing?""Nothing."Margot could already tell how much Curtis had made her suffer because of Tammy back then just by hearing his perception of her.As for Tammy, it seemed like she was rather two-faced.She could've told Margot everything the first time they met on the Isle.However, she didn't tell her then. It was only after she met Curtis that she h
The few women were here intending to cause trouble.The leader of those women was half a head taller than Margot. She was dressed in branded clothes and covered in heavy makeup.She coldly gave Margot a once-over before snorting out a laugh.She asked, "You're Margot Stone?"Margot had also sized the other up and snorted the same way when she replied, "I am who I am.""Very gutsy of you. Is it true that you've rejected Royce multiple times?" the woman asked.Royce?Margot frowned as she recalled the person of that name.She hasn't seen him for a very long time.She looked at the woman and replied, "It's true. Do you have any problem with it?""You should call him now and tell him you're looking for him. Ask him to come back to the university."The woman took advantage of their numbers and tried to force Margot's hand. However, Margot wasn't just anybody else. She wouldn't let anyone walk over her.She coldly stared at the group of women and snorted a laugh.She said, "Is
It was only then that Tommy came back to his senses and released her. His burning ears made him squirm uncomfortably.Tommy said, "Have a seat. I've ordered a few dishes, see if you'll like them. If not, we could just reorder something else."Margot replied, "I'm not picky."She sat down and gratefully looked at the bright and handsome man sitting before her.She sincerely said, "I'm really thankful for what you did before, Tommy. If it wasn't for you, I would've ended up dead somewhere without anyone knowing."From now on, you're my number one savior. Just let me know if you need me to do anything. I'll go through hell and high water for you!"Tommy lowered his head as he laughed softly.He then picked up his cutleries gracefully to place some food onto Margot's plate. His gaze was gentle as he looked at her.He responded, "I'm not asking you to go through hell and high water for me. I hope you don't mind me asking, but how did the matter between you and Curtis go?"Margot ha
Margot couldn't understand why a company CEO would come over to her university during the noon instead of working in the company.She ignored him and told Tommy, "I'll head in for now, Tommy. We should meet up again when we're free next time."Tommy asked, "Aren't you going over to explain yourself? He looks upset."He had also noticed the person inside the car by the roadside.Recalling what happened at the Isle, he was rather afraid that Curtis might have misunderstood them again.Margot couldn't have cared less when she replied, "Why would I need to explain myself when I've done nothing wrong? Just ignore him. I'll head in now."Tommy replied, "Okay."After watching Margot leave, Tommy walked toward Curtis' car.Curtis had purposely come bringing lunch for Margot.His secretary had prepared his lunch for him. He thought it tasted good, so he'd asked his secretary to prepare an extra for him.Curtis happened to pass by the university before heading to the mall for inspectio
Margot was anticipating the gift. She quickly got off the bed and ran over to the university entrance.She saw Chester standing by the roadside. Nobody seemed to be inside the car beside him.She walked over and asked, "You're alone?"Chester opened the car door and signaled for her to get in while saying, "Yes. Please get into the car, Ms. Stone."Margot knew she had to go home everyday.She ended up getting into the car without much choice.After she was seated, she asked, "Where's the gift you mentioned?"Chester took some fresh flowers from the passenger seat and passed it to Margot.He replied, "Have a look at it."Margot took the fresh flowers over and unexpectedly saw an exquisite little box on top.She opened the box and saw that it was actually a diamond ring of an unknown carat. It was extremely beautiful and exquisite.She asked Chester, "Did he ask you to give this to me?"Chester replied, "Yes, this is your wedding ring. Back then, you guys got married suddenly
It was still early when Margot arrived home.It had been days since she last saw Natalie. Since Curtis wasn't back yet, she decided to visit Natalie at her neighboring house.Mary Fine, the Sawyer family's newly-hired nanny, opened the door for Margot.She had not met Margot before and had asked upon opening the door, "Who are you here for?"Margot smiled and said, "I'm looking for Natalie. I'm your neighbor.""Oh, so you're Ms. Stone from the neighboring house. Perhaps you should come over another day? It's not a good day today," Mary tactfully replied.Margot didn't understand and asked, "Why is today not a good day? Is Natalie not in?"As soon as she finished speaking, she could hear the voices of two people arguing from the villa ahead.Margot couldn't make out what they were arguing about.Mary immediately said, "You've heard it yourself. Sir and Madam are currently having an argument. It might not be appropriate to let you in for now."Margot was speechless.Natalie an
To Margot, Doris was just like family. All these while, Doris had been taking care of her. Yet Margot never had the chance to get to know about Doris' family situation.Doris smiled kindly and replied, "There's no need for it, Ms. Stone. Your good intentions are enough."As soon as Margot heard that, she knew Doris was facing some difficulties.She quickly said, "Just tell me, Doris. I'll see if I can help you."Doris hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "I have a daughter who's younger than you by two years. She failed her college entrance examination this year."I wanted to send her to a vocational college, but she wasn't willing to go. I was just wondering what to do."Margot frowned as she asked, "You're saying I should find a job for her, Doris?"Doris was rather embarrassed as she replied, "She's only 18 years old. Which company would dare to hire her when she doesn't know anything? Unless she works in the factory."Margot was speechless.She was trying to think
Margot rolled around on the soft bed as she repeatedly patted herself on the face.She couldn't understand why her heartbeat would speed up and her face would blush when Curtis scooted closer to ask for a kiss earlier.They were already married for quite some time.Even though Margot had forgotten about him, they just had sex two days ago.What was with her acting like she was experiencing her first love now?Was she starting to like him now?Margot, oh Margot. She really was shameless.He just had to bribe her with something, and she was sold with just a diamond ring. She really was useless.Margot sat up and crossed her legs as she meditated and took deep breaths to calm herself down.She shouldn't be further tempted by Curtis.He was a cunning man. It would be hard for her to escape once she fell for his traps. However, who could resist having a daily pocket money of ten thousand and a reward of a hundred thousand that would go into their account? There were even endless
