"You can hold yourself back, but I wouldn't be able to do so. It's time to eat already, right?" Curtis said as he lifted Margot off his lap.

He then took her hand and brought her out of the study.

Margot was speechless.

Was he really holding himself back from touching her just because she was pregnant? Why did she feel like Curtis had something on his mind?

Margot's heart clenched painfully when she recalled his sudden expression of disgust when he avoided her earlier.

The reassurance and sense of security she recently gained had completely vanished.

During mealtime, Curtis told Margot, "You can head to bed first later. Gabriel called me over for some matters."

Margot was already losing her sense of security. She got even more suspicious when she heard his words.

"Okay, you can go," she agreed readily.

Curtis looked up at her. He continued as if he was afraid that she wouldn't believe him.

"You can come along with me if you're not tired. We'll just be next door."

    Margot acted like she didn't care, but she couldn't sleep for the entire night.She only fell asleep early the next morning. Curtis didn't bother her about it. Instead, he was waiting for Chester's call in the living room.Chester only called to report at 10:00 am.He said, "The doctor said that Wendy's body is weak, Mr. Crosby. She might not be able to conceive again if she aborts the baby. The doctor asked us to reconsider the abortion. Wendy kept crying, and I couldn't make the decision."Chester could somehow guess what happened. He couldn't believe it. Did Curtis cheat on Margot?Even though it was a shocking revelation, he couldn't say much as he was just an assistant.Curtis was speechless.He thought the abortion was over by then. He didn't know that they hadn't even started yet.She might not be able to conceive again if she aborted the baby? Why were all the women around him so frail?Must he really keep the baby? If he kept the baby, what would happen with Margot th

    Margot was even more afraid that Curtis was having an affair."I'm not sick of you, so you shouldn't be overthinking. Let's continue eating instead," Curtis said as he sat down beside her and fed her some food.Margot stared at Curtis and avoided his spoonful of food.She asked unrelentingly, "Is it really not because you're sick of me?"Curtis looked determined as he replied, "How would I get sick of you? I have always wanted a baby with you. I can't even pamper you enough."Margot said, "You shouldn't sleep in the other bedroom from now onward then!"Curtis replied, "Alright."Margot only took a bite reluctantly after hearing his reply.Curtis continued feeding her while asking, "Do you want to go shopping today? I can go with you."Margot replied, "I don't want to. Can we stay at home instead?""Okay," he replied, complying with everything she said.…Chester brought Wendy elsewhere and arranged for her to stay in an upscale neighborhood.Before he left, he told Wendy,

    Margot no longer had a friend around after Natalie left.She saw the way Curtis had been distracted the entire day when he stayed by her side. She knew that he couldn't sit still at home.During the night, they were back resting in their room. She spoke to Curtis, who was taking off his shirt in front of the bed."You should just go do your own thing tomorrow. You don't have to stay at home with me for the entire day."Curtis eyed her before sitting on the bed and said, "Isn't it the weekend tomorrow? I was thinking that I haven't been spending time with you for the entire week. I should do that for at least two days when you're on break."Margot replied, "We have an entirety's worth of time to be with each other. It doesn't have to be now."She wanted to be more understanding and didn't want to keep Curtis away from his work.Additionally, he was always distracted and lost in thoughts whenever he was with her. She would rather not have him by her side if that was the case.Cur

    Curtis immediately ended the call and quickly went over to ask her, "What's wrong?"Margot was frowning as she felt wronged deep down.She looked at him and questioned, "Why didn't you sleep with me again? Who are you calling at this hour? Are you having an affair?"Margot had a nightmare and woke up abruptly. She panicked when she saw that Curtis wasn't beside her.She couldn't believe that he was avoiding her for a call. Was it a woman that was calling him so late at night?At that moment, the fear in Margot's heart intensified.Curtis said, "Don't overthink, Margot. I suddenly remembered I had some work matters, so I called Chester for a short discussion."He was afraid that she wouldn't believe him. He then opened his call records and passed it to her.He said, "You can have a look. It really is Chester."Margot glanced over at the phone. She only stopped fretting when she saw that there was indeed only a call with Chester."I really thought you were having an affair," sh

    Curtis felt guilty facing Margot's questioning. Even though he did not read the message, he knew it was from Wendy.He couldn't come up with any excuse.He replied haughtily, "You should go to sleep."Margot saw that he was about to leave. She quickly got down from the bed to block him at the door.She looked at him and shouted angrily, "Don't you dare go anywhere else tonight! Explain why exactly you deleted the message! Who's that person? Have you been cheating on me all this while?"Curtis tried his best to calm himself.He pursed his lips and replied emotionlessly, "Don't overthink, Margot. I didn't cheat on you. The message contained confidential information. That's why I couldn't let you know. It's getting late. You should rest."He reached over to pull her away, but Margot refused to budge and continued to block his exit.She said, "You're also aware it's getting late, so why are you going out now? You don't have to admit it, but I know you're having an affair, Curtis. D

    Annoyed, Curtis slammed his fist angrily on the steering wheel. He spent the night in his car.Upon remembering that Margot was now pregnant, he drove back home during the day. He walked to the room to check on her.Margot was curled up on the bed. She was biting on her finger as she stared blankly at a corner.Curtis stood by the bed and saw that she was awake.He said, "I've called in sick for you. You don't need to go back to the university during this time. You can stay at home and rest up."Margot ignored him. Curtis saw that she seemed alright. He then went to wash himself up.He went down for breakfast after he was done washing up.He instructed Doris and said, "Take care of Margot. Don't let her go out during this time."Doris seemed confused and asked, "Not even for her classes?"Curtis replied, "She won't be attending them."He ate a little before getting up to leave.Doris saw that Margot had not come down the entire morning. She then brought breakfast up for her.

    Margot did not panic even when she heard Curtis. She didn't bother lifting her head as she ignored his existence entirely. She scrolled through her phone as she sat beside the bed.Curtis walked over to her and asked condescendingly, "You want to divorce again? You're even getting someone to investigate me now?"Margot remained silent. Didn't he say that she kept acting up? She definitely wouldn't throw a tantrum at him this time now.Once she obtained the evidence, she would file for divorce and split the assets.She would go and look for Natalie with that money. She could also give birth and raise her baby on her own. Who said she wanted to stay by Curtis' side?"I'm asking you questions now. Do you not trust me at all?" Curtis shouted in anger.Margot could only feel her heart clenching in pain. She wanted to put on a strong front, but tears kept welling up in her eyes.Still, she refused to look up at him nor talk to him.Curtis continued, "If you really wanted to divorce,

    Ashley glanced at Curtis.She then went upstairs while mumbling, "You're almost 31 years old now, yet you can't even take good care of your own wife. I'll deal with you later if she's unhappy and my grandchild is affected!"Ashley maintained her friendly expression as she walked into Margot's room.Her voice was gentle, and she asked, "Are you asleep, Margot?"Margot never thought that Ashley would come over.She immediately got up to greet her politely, "Hello, Ashley."Ashley replied, "Hello. I heard that you weren't feeling your best recently. Are you alright?"Margot nodded her head.Ashley passed her a coat to wear and said, "Come and stay in the Crosby residence with me for a few days. Let's not deal with Curtis for now."Margot was speechless. Was Ashley bringing her over to the Crosby residence?If she left, wouldn't Curtis have more time to spend with the other woman? Did he purposely send her away?Margot didn't want to leave, but she couldn't refuse Ashley. She ha

    "Anthony, listen to me carefully. End things with her immediately. Not only that, but you must send her away. She must not step foot in Emeria ever again. If she does, don't blame me for taking her life.""Dad." Calvin hurriedly said, "Aren't you going too far? What exactly has Lena done to make you so wary of her? She's just a girl in her early twenties.""You shut up."Frederick snapped at Calvin, his anger surging as he shouted, "I entrusted the family to you when I wasn't around, and this is how you manage it? You couldn't even take care of your mother. What else can I possibly rely on you for? Hand over the military seal to me. From now on, do whatever you want, but this family is back under my control."Calvin froze as he stared at his father in disbelief. In that moment, he felt as if he no longer recongized the man before him. This wasn't the father who had once taught them so many life lessons, who had guided them with reason and wisdom. Anthony stood at the side and he

    Margot explained, "I heard there used to be a rumor that Yelena's existence would lead to the downfall of the Morris family. I only know about it because Grandma mentioned it, but it's obviously just a baseless rumor. Lena has been nothing but kind to us, how could she possibly…"She couldn't believe in such rumors.Lena, despite her remarkable skills, was kind-hearted; she was always saving lives and helping others. She had also done a lot for their family. If not for Lena, Curtis' heart condition might not have improved, and Margot might still be bedridden. No matter what, they would stand by Lena's side. "What a ridiculous rumor." Natialie found it amusing. "We all know what kind of person Lena is. How could a woman like her cause the downfall of our entire family? It's simply impossible. How could Dad be so irrational and get upset over something like this?"Maybe he just called Calvin back to ask about the situation. It probably won't be anything serious."Margot tried

    "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
