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
Curtis had just been thinking that he shouldn't get Margot pregnant, and that they should enjoy two years of their romantic time for now. He didn't expect the surprise to come suddenly.Even he was caught off guard.While on his way back, he took his phone out and eagerly called Margot.Margot had run back home to talk to Curtis, but he was not around.She sat on the couch and recalled everything Tammy had told her before. The more she thought, the more fearful she became.The phone on the chair rang, and she picked it up and accepted the call after suppressing her anger.Curtis excitedly said, "Wait for me at home, Margot. I'll bring you to the hospital once I'm back. Don't go anywhere, okay?""Okay!" Margot replied briefly before hanging up.Curtis lied.He lied when he said he didn't want children. He must've done something to the condoms. He just wanted her to get pregnant and bear children for him.Margot was not even 21 years old and was still in university. How could h
When Curtis saw the way Margot was fuming at him just because of her pregnancy, he knew that she was going to make a fuss with him again.He took her hand with a somber expression and said, "This is just an accident, Margot.""How could there be so many accidents? You did it on purpose," Margot said as she shook his hand off and got up to leave.Curtis got up and followed after her when he saw her going upstairs.He spoke softly, "Don't get mad just yet. We can get you checked in the hospital, okay? What if it was your misconception?"What if it was a false pregnancy? Would she be pregnant just because she felt like she was pregnant? Curtis thought that it shouldn't be this easy.Margot just had her miscarriage not long ago. The doctor had also told him previously that her body was weak.Adding to that, she had a drug abortion back then, which caused great harm to her body. It would be hard for her to get pregnant in the future.Curtis thought that it would be fine not to use p
