Chapter 16

Author: Miles of Scenery
Divorce …

Hearing Curtis say those words broke Margot's heart. She felt like she was suffocating from the pain.

She was in distress. Her throat was so swollen she couldn't even say a word.

She slumped down to the ground slowly and curled up on the floor in despair. She had no idea what to do.

Curtis wanted to get divorced. What would happen to her and the baby?

She sobbed and had no courage to answer him.

Curtis' cold voice rang out again.

"Margot, I'll give you ample financial security, and I won't neglect you in the future, either."

Margot forced herself not to lose control of her emotions, despite tears trickling down her cheeks like broken strings of pearls.

But she couldn't suppress her sobs as she said tragically, "Curt … thank you for saving me, and thank you for looking after me for all these years. Thank you for fulfilling my wish and marrying me.

"Curt, I won't get in the way of you marrying someone else. You're so resourceful. You'd still be able to get divorced

    At the restaurant, Curtis ordered an entire table full of food that Margot liked.Seeing that Margot wasn't eating much and hadn't even touched some of the food, he asked worriedly, "What's wrong? Is the food not to your taste?"Margot shook her head."Then, why are you eating so little?""I'll eat more fruit."Margot took the plate of fruit and began eating big mouthfuls.Curtis elegantly put a piece of steak in his mouth and swallowed. He looked at Margot, saying, "Will you come back with me after we eat?"Margot nodded obediently. "Okay.""Don't throw any more tantrums in the future.""Okay." She nodded again.As if she had suddenly thought about it, Margot looked at him and asked, "Curt, do you really not need me to have babies?"At this, Curtis looked at her. "You're still young and are currently studying. You don't need to have babies right now.""What if I'm already pregnant?" Margot blurted out.Curtis frowned. "Already pregnant?"Margot hurriedly shook her head a

    Curtis went upstairs, and the first thing he saw when he entered the room was Margot lying on the bed. She was kicking on the side of the bed with her short legs as if venting her anger.Curtis walked over and asked, "Are you angry again?"Margot didn't bother to raise her head. She kicked the bed again and replied resentfully, "No.""That's good, then."Curtis did not have the patience to keep comforting the two women. He went into the dressing room to change.After a long period of silence, Margot slowly turned her head to search for Curtis.Seeing that he was in the dressing room, she got up slowly and approached him gingerly. She asked him in a low voice, "Curt, are you going out?""Yes. I'm going to the office."Curtis paused in the act of tying his tie and looked at Margot. "Come here."Margot went over obediently and stood in front of him.She was rather short. Even with shoes on, she was only five feet two. On the other hand, Curtis was over six feet tall when he had

    Upon receiving the address of the bar, Margot immediately took a taxi to the location without thinking much.She found the private room Violet had mentioned and pushed the door open. "Margot, you're here."Margot nodded as she took out a gift she had brought from her bag.She handed it to Violet as she said, "Happy birthday."Looking at the gift, Violet hesitated for a moment.Then, she accepted it with a wry smile. "Thank you. Come, have a seat. I ordered some drinks. It's just the two of us today, and we're not leaving until we're drunk."Upon seeing several bottles of opened alcohol on the coffee table, Margot sat down and said, "I'm allergic to alcohol. I can't drink."Truth be told, she couldn't drink because she was pregnant.Violet's face changed as she asked, "How about non-alcoholic drinks?"Margot shook her head. "I'm allergic to food coloring as well. I'll just have water."As she reached for a bottle of mineral water on the coffee table, she noticed that the cap

    Someone dared to scheme against the people around Curtis. It was as if they were fed up with living.Without further questioning, he looked toward the office door and said, "Come in."Chester immediately entered and nodded. "Mr. Crosby.""Go and investigate what happened to Margot today. I need the results by tonight."As Chester nodded and was about to leave, Margot added, "It happened at Enchanting Bar. If you can't find anything there, you can ask my roommate, Violet."But, please don't reveal my identity. You can claim to be the police, and she will cooperate with you."Chester understood and quietly closed the door as he left.Margot redirected her gaze and nestled back into Curtis' arms. She hung her hands around his neck.Curtis reminded her, "Don't make baseless assumptions without evidence.""Hmm?" She sat up straight and looked at the man in front of her.Furrowing her brows, she asked, "Do you think I'm wronging Tammy?"Curtis' expression wasn't as pleasant as bef

    The moment Tammy leaned in for a kiss, Curtis leaned away with a stern expression.He gazed at her and inquired, "Can you see now?"Feeling flustered, she quickly replied with a guilty conscience, "No, I can't.""If you can't, then don't move around. Just stay here. I'm going to change into something more comfortable."With that, he got up and left her behind, taking big strides as he ascended the stairs.Inside the room, Margot, in a fit of anger, threw a pillow onto the floor. She stomped on it a couple of times to release her frustration.Curtis' attitude just now was quite perplexing. He seemed to enjoy Tammy leaning on him.He had claimed that he accommodated Tammy to make amends for the harm she had suffered.From Margot's perspective, it seemed like perhaps even he couldn't resist the temptation of a beautiful woman.It appeared that men were all the same—whenever a woman made the first move, they wouldn't refuse.Margot felt a surge of anger and stomped on the pillow

    Later that night, Curtis tended to Tammy until she went to bed.When he was returning to the master bedroom after that, he received a call from Chester."Mr. Crosby, we've conducted the investigation. The security footage at the bar has been destroyed. We couldn't identify the one targeting Ms. Stone yet," Chester said over the phone.Curtis pursed his lips tightly as his face grew extremely serious."Is this the best you can do?""I'm sorry. I'll intensify our efforts," Chester replied.After ending the call, Curtis strode toward the master bedroom.Margot was already lying in bed.She felt uneasy, particularly about seeing Curtis getting closer to another woman. She didn't know how long she could endure this situation.Upon hearing footsteps approaching, she slowly sat up.She saw Curtis, who hadn't changed into his pajamas yet, walking straight toward her.Standing in front of her, his handsome face bore no expression as he asked coldly, "Do you really think she's pretend

    Leaning against the window, Margot suddenly felt very uncertain about her future.If Curtis eventually divorced her to marry Tammy, what was the point of her current perseverance? Was it just because she loved him and couldn't be without him? If that were the case, the future would play out the same way it did now.In the end, she would still be abandoned by him.Hence, Margot knew she needed to start learning to be independent and strong. She had to be capable of making money without him.Since she was on a break from school and had nothing to do, she decided to go out tomorrow and look for a part-time job.As long as she had a job, she wouldn't have to see Tammy every day. In that case, her mood wouldn't be so miserable.While she thought about this, the door to her room opened. The person entering was Curtis.He was dressed in an elegant suit, exuding the charm of a mature man.Margot gave him a faint smile as she greeted, "Curt."While changing his clothes, Curtis asked,

    Curtis didn't want to waste any more time with Margot. He grabbed her hand and dragged her upstairs.His grip was too strong, which made Margot stagger behind him."Curt, you're hurting me," she cried out in pain.This was the first time she saw him so furious, and his actions were so rough. He was genuinely angry.Without any sympathy, he roughly threw her into Tammy's room and pointed to the disgusting things on the bed."Do you still want to argue?" he questioned.While massaging her sore wrist, Margot looked at the things on the bed. Several large frogs were leaping around and croaking.She finally understood what was going on.So, Curtis believed that she did all of this?Feeling wronged, she turned to look at him with red eyes as she asked, "Curt, you're convinced that I did this, aren't you?""Who else could it be?" he replied, evading her question. Leaving no words, she turned and left in anger.Curtis coldly ordered, "Apologize to Tammy and never step into her roo

    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
