Soon, Gabriel walked out of the washroom and sat down beside Natalie.His gaze went from Benjamin to Natalie. He had mixed feelings despite not saying anything.Before he started eating, he took a slice of pizza and offered it to Benjamin.Gabriel spoke in a low voice, "Eat up, Benjamin."Never had he thought that Benjamin would push away the pizza he offered in disgust.Benjamin glared at him and shouted, "I don't want pizza from you! You're a mean Dad! I hate you, don't talk to me!"His words meant no harm, but Gabriel still felt each word piercing deep into his heart.He endured the pain and offered the pizza to Natalie by his side while saying, "You should eat up as well, Natalie."Surprisingly, Natalie replied amiably, "Thank you, the same goes to you too."Gabriel was surprised when he heard her words. He stared at her with reddening eyes, but Natalie did not look at him. While she was eating, she also talked to Margot with a smile.Margot asked, "How was the pizza, Nat
The air was unexpectedly chilly during that night.Natalie had dressed lightly when she got out. As she strolled along the neighborhood garden with Gabriel, she couldn't help but rub at her arms when the cold wind blew.Gabriel took off his blazer and draped it over her shoulders.Natalie did not reject it. They walked side by side as the dim lights elongated their shadows in the dark night.The entire neighborhood was quiet, even more so when none of them spoke a word.When Natalie saw a rest shelter no further from them, she said, "Let's go over there.""Okay," Gabriel said and gestured for her to walk before him.Both of them entered the rest shelter one after another and sat down.Natalie said lightly, "It feels like time goes by quickly, and we became adults in the blink of an eye. Of course, I never imagined that the boy that I couldn't get along with back when we were young would now become my husband."Gabriel lowered his head with a sorrowful expression.Natalie turn
The revelation left Natalie thunderstruck in place.What exactly was going on with her family?No wonder her parents looked ashen when she returned home. They were constantly persuading her against getting a divorce when she mentioned that she wanted to do so.She could even see paparazzi sneaking photos around her house occasionally.Was it true that her parents were really in trouble?And Tommy, what scandals would he possibly have?Natalie got up to run after Gabriel and stopped him to ask, "Tell me clearly, what exactly is going on with my family?"Gabriel took his cell phone out and handed it over to her.Natalie was dumbfounded when she saw the evidence of her parents' crimes. She couldn't believe her eyes when she saw Tommy gathering with a group of men.Her tears welled up around her eyes unwillingly."You're the one who's doing all these, right? You framed my family just to force me to stay by your side, all because you didn't want me to divorce!"Gabriel looked at
Tommy's eyes glinted as he looked at Margot. He couldn't answer her.Did news get leaked out? He already…"Tommy?" Margot asked in a confused manner when she saw Tommy's pale face.Tommy quickly avoided her gaze and retorted, "What else could I do? I've not done anything. Don't let your imaginations run wild, Margot. It's late, you should head back home. Good night."He quickly headed upstairs as soon as he was done talking.Margot was speechless.Why was Tommy acting so strange?However, it was good to see him well. Margot hurried home upon thinking that Curtis would come over to catch her again when he didn't see her around.…Just as she entered her home, Margot was met with Curtis, who was on the stairs.Curtis looked at her with a displeased expression and asked, "What are you doing outside this late at night?"Margot replied, "I was stuffed, so I went for a walk outside. I haven't even gone far."She walked over and tilted her head to look at him.She asked, "Are you
Margot mumbled, "Something happened to Natalie's family. I want to help her look after Benjamin.""What could happen to the Nelsons?" Curtis asked while looking at her.Margot shook her head and replied, "I'm not too sure about the details. Gabriel threatened Natalie with the Nelson family matters and refused to divorce her. It must've been serious if Natalie couldn't even do anything about it."Curtis wanted Margot to ignore Natalie's problems, but her life was saved by Tommy after all. He could never persuade her otherwise with her stubborn personality. There was nothing he could do but listen to Margot."Alright, you can go and stay with Benjamin then. But stay away from Tommy, okay?" Curtis askedHe was negotiating with her instead of warning her like he used to.Margot pouted as she explained, "How do I stay away from him when we're all under one roof? You just don't trust me, do you? I will definitely not fall for others when I'm already with you. I only feel grateful towar
Curtis wasn't planning to concern himself with a child's actions.However, not only had Benjamin wanted Margot to feed him during dinner, he even wanted Margot to bathe him after dinner.He could not tolerate this.Curtis had already been feeling unwell.He leaned on the couch and started wailing, "Oh, I feel unwell."Margot was about to carry Benjamin upstairs for his bath when she heard Curtis sighing from the living room. She saw the way he looked haggard.She couldn't help but walk over and asked in concern, "Are you still feeling unwell?"Curtis pretended to agree, "Yes, I feel so stuffy. I think I cannot take it any longer.""You should hurry and go to the hospital then!"Margot placed Benjamin down by the side before sitting beside Curtis.She then took his hand and said, "Let's go, I'll go with you.""It's fine. I won't die from this just yet. You should stay with Benjamin," Curtis replied as he pretended to be understanding.Margot said, "But you're feeling unwell.
"It should be fine if I bring him to sleep in the guest bedroom then. I'll leave if you're not going to the hospital," Margot replied before heading upstairs.She would rather not stay there and dawdle with him.Curtis looked at her retreating back. He wanted to say something but hesitated.Late at night, when he returned to his room, he saw that Margot was indeed not in the bed. When he walked to the next door bedroom, he saw that Benjamin and Margot were sound asleep.Curtis walked over with light steps and lifted the blanket to pick Margot up. He then tucked Benjamin in before returning to the master bedroom.…Early the next morning, Margot was surprised when she woke up and couldn't find Benjamin sleeping beside her."Fuck!"Her loud curse woke Curtis up.He opened his eyes to look at her and asked, "What happened?""Where's Benjamin? Why isn't he here? Don't tell me he ran out? I'm doomed. How do I explain to Natalie if he got lost?" Margot replied anxiously as she scra
Natalie took the sanitary pads and went into the washroom.Her concerned voice came through the door crack as she asked, "How long has it been delayed for you?""About ten days or more?" Margot replied after calculating the time.She figured it should be about ten days or more.Natalie continued asking, "Then have you started your period now?"Margot replied, "Not yet."Natalie did not reply to her. Once she was done, she washed her hands and opened the door to walk out. She then stared at Margot.Margot suddenly became anxious as she asked, "Do I need to get myself checked in the hospital?"Natalie nodded and replied, "You should get a check up if it was delayed for about ten days or so. You might be pregnant.""Huh?" Margot replied, stunned.Natalie laughed as she walked toward the living room and said, "Why do you look like that? You're now a married woman. Isn't it normal to get pregnant?"Margot replied, "No, it's impossible. He used protection every time. How could I b
"What do you mean they can't be separated? If Lena is really that girl from Evans family, she cannot be with Anthony," Frederick said furiously while clutching his chest to steady his emotions. "Get Anthony back here immediately. As long as I'm still breathing, I will never agree to this. Not only that, but Yelena should not even be alive. Ask Calvin to return now!"He hadn't expected the girl rumored to destroy the Morris family would still be alive. How could she still be alive? Daniel stood still, trying to reason with him again. "Dad, can you stop being so unreasonable? Lena and Anthony are already engaged. If you step in now and cause chaos, no one in the family will have any peace."How could their father have changed so much since coming back?He used to be so reasonable, always teaching them principles of life and he would remind them that whoever inherited the military seal must priortitze the well-being of the people of Emeria. Now, it seemed like he had forgotten al
Frederick initially wasn't very interested in chatting with the viscountess.As soon as the viscountess mentioned her younger sister's marriage to his son, he immediately interrupted."Wait a minute, what are you talking about? Your sister? You have a sister?"The viscountess smiled and said, "Yes, has my younger sister's relationship with your third son not been mentioned to you by them yet?"Frederick knew that Pamela was referring to Anthony.But wasn't Anthony's girlfriend Lena?Frederick said that he still didn't quite understand some parts."Are you sure you haven't got it wrong? Anthony's girlfriend is actually that girl named Lena. What does she have to do with your little sister?"Pamela laughed and explained, "Did they really not tell you? So you don't know that Lena is my younger sister, Yelena Evans?"What was Anthony doing?Why didn't he inform his own father about such a big matter?Or could it be that there wasn't enough time?Frederick was stunned.Lena was
Frederick glared at his son, who was looking at him. "What, didn't you hear what I said?"Anthony said in a calm voice, "Got it.""How is she doing now? Where have you arranged for her to be?""Dad, don't worry, she's doing fine," Anthony continued measuring."It better be this way, because if you dare do anything to my people, you're not going to have a good time either."Frederick was stubborn. After eating a bit and losing his appetite, he put the bowls back.Seeing his son moving sluggishly, he couldn't help but impatiently snap at him, "Hurry up and get the prosthetic done for me. I'm only giving you three days. Can you do it?"Anthony put away the tape measure, feeling a bit impatient."Dad, for just three days, you might as well use a walking stick instead of getting a prosthetic. Can my prosthetic even compare to an ordinary one?"Frederick was really frustrated and smacked him on the arm."What kind of prosthetic do you have, and how long does it take?""My prosthet
"I don't understand what you mean. It was clearly your dad who insisted on being with me in the first place."Yasmine was arguing vehemently, staring at Margot with a defiant unwillingness to admit defeat.Margot laughed and said, "My dad lost a leg, and according to him, he was bedridden for a few months before he slowly recovered. How could a crippled man like him force you to do anything?""Anyway, I don't care; it was only because he wanted to do it with me that I went along with it." She continued to cry out, "You are completely heartless, you took away my child, and I will never forgive you for this."Margot was speechless.She had encountered shameless people before, but she had never seen anyone as shameless as this woman.She didn't want to waste time with her because no matter how much she explained, Yasmine would not listen.After a moment of silence, Margot sighed and said, "Take a good rest and take care of yourself. Since you took care of my dad for some time, we w
Margot, in particular, stood up and asked, "How could that be?"Calvin explained, "She said she ate a lot of cold-natured food, and when the kitchen refused to make them for her, she got upset. It's unclear whether she did it on purpose or if she just really wanted to eat those things.""Does Dad know about this?" Curtis asked.Calvin looked at him and said, "How would he know? The two aren't even together.""If Dad finds out, he'll definitely cause trouble for us again," Margot said, as she sat back with Louis.They found it frustrating how their dad seemed like a completely different person."It's fine, even if things get chaotic, it's not like we as his children will end up as enemies."Calvin reassured his sister, "Don't worry about it, we'll take care of this."Margot nodded.However, when she considered everything, she realized that Yasmine had still cared for Frederick for quite some time.She felt it was important for her to go and see how others were doing.That aft
In the coming days, Daniel and Edna stayed at home to take care of Frederick.Calvin and Margot were taking care of Natalie at the maternity center, and they were also looking after Louis.As for Curtis, he had been going back and forth between home and the maternity center.Anthony, apart from being busy with work, had assigned people to keep an eye on all of Yasmine's activities.As soon as he sat down in his office, his assistant came in with a cell phone and reported, "Sir, there's something urgent."Anthony picked up the cell phone.On the other end of the phone, the subordinate reported, "Sir, something bad has happened, that woman had a miscarriage."When Anthony heard this, he quickly stood up and asked, "What's going on?""I have no idea what happened. She just kept eating and eating a lot of stuff, and then soon after she started complaining about stomach pain. When the doctor arrived, they announced she had a miscarriage.""Let me speak to the doctor."At first, he
"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
