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

    Opening the door, Curtis saw that Margot was still sitting on the floor.He walked over and stood in front of her as he asked, "Margot, have you realized your mistake?"All she had to do was apologize to Tammy, and he wouldn't actually keep her locked in her room without food.After all, she was still his.However, Margot didn't look up or speak.She continued hugging her knees and leaning against the edge of the bed, ignoring him completely.Seeing her stubbornness, Curtis said, "It seems you haven't reflected on your actions yet. Continue reflecting, then."With that, he left and slammed the door behind him.Margot slowly lifted her head, revealing her pale face. Her heart ached deeply. Her stomach was empty and growling.Nevertheless, she still refused to apologize.In the dining room, Curtis couldn't help but give in. He instructed Doris, "Bring her some food."Doris was feeding Tammy when she heard this.She paused for a moment and nodded. "Alright, sir."After she br

    Curtis could never have imagined that Margot, who had always been an obedient girl, would one day become so unreasonable.He said furiously, "Don't test my patience."He got up from his chair and took off his belt before marching toward Margot.Margot was already in tears. She retreated when she saw what he was doing.However, before she could react, Curtis pulled her to him and bent her over the desk. He whipped her across the buttocks with the belt mercilessly.Actually, he hadn't hit her that hard. He only wanted to frighten her.Margot sobbed miserably, "How dare you hit me? This is domestic violence. I'm going to sue you.""I'm your husband. You disobeyed me first," said Curtis. He whipped her again.The blow was very soft, but it was still painful to Margot. She struggled and yelled desperately, "Curtis, I don't love you anymore. Let go of me!""It looks like you haven't learned your lesson. How dare you yell at me?" Curtis whipped her again, but he put no strength into

    "When you come, your grandpa will surely pester you for great-grandchildren, so prepare yourselves," said Ashley.Curtis didn't respond. After a while, Ashley ended the call. Curtis thought about his fight with Margot earlier.How were they supposed to have children like this?He put his phone away and opened the study door.He bumped into Margot, who was walking out of the master bedroom with her luggage. He stopped in his tracks and looked at her sharply.Margot acted as if she didn't see him and walked past him with her head down. Curtis got angry and grabbed her arm.Margot tried to shake him off, but she failed. She looked up and glared at him. "Let go of me," she said."Where are you going in the middle of the night?"Curtis didn't want to waste any time on her and commanded, "Go back to your room. Follow me to the Crosby residence tomorrow."Margot said defiantly, "Why should I listen to you?""Because I'm your husband," said Curtis in a tone that brooked no argument.

    Curtis was angry again. He pursed his lips and looked coldly at the unreasonable girl in front of him."Margot, you're already refusing to sleep with me?" He tried his best to control his temper.Margot said defiantly, "You can sleep with me, but kick that woman out first."Curtis was speechless. Margot refused to stop harping about Tammy.However, he owed Tammy. How could he kick her out if she was reluctant to leave?Curtis got up and glared at Margot. "Fine, I'll leave. Don't ever expect me to set foot in this room again."Curtis was furious. He slammed the door on his way out and Margot shuddered.Her heart ached as if someone had plunged a knife into it. She tried her best not to cry.She got under the blankets again and forced herself to go to sleep.The next morning, Curtis and Tammy were still the only ones at the breakfast table. Tammy felt pleased when she thought of Curtis and Margot's fight the night before.She said, "Curt, I …"Curtis cut her off. "You have to

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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
