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
Margot soon ended the video call with Laura. Her mind kept thinking about the name "Zyla Morris".When she finally fell asleep, she had an extremely weird dream.In her dream, Margot was in a grandiose palace. She was blindfolded with a strip of cloth. She kept hearing the gentle voices of young boys around her.A voice said, "Zyla, I'm here!"Another shouted, "I'm behind you, Zyla!"Someone called, "Let's stop playing, Zyla. He's coming over!"Upon hearing those words, the three-year-old girl took down the blindfold. She was standing in the middle of the main hall.She didn't know why she was surrounded by a blinding white light. She couldn't see anything at all. She could only hear them calling for her."Zyla…""Zyla?""Come out now, Zyla. Let's stop playing hide-and-seek now!""If you don't come out now, he's going to punish you!""Wait…" the girl called out in a childish voice.She walked toward the blinding white light in hopes of catching up with her brothers.Howev
Ashley smiled and said, "We're flying with a private plane. We can have those documents sorted out later. Besides, Pamela's part of the Emeria royalty. We have the privilege to do away with applying for a visa."Margot replied, "Oh."Never had she thought that Royce would have such a noble identity. Being a descendant of the Emeria royalty sounded impressive.Ashley saw that Margot had agreed to it. She immediately got someone to arrange for them to fly to Emeria that afternoon.…At that moment, Chester pushed open the door to the president's office in Regal Enterprises. He walked in and handed a set of documents over to Curtis.Chester then reported, "I've found out that there's something fishy with Wendy's call records. She would occasionally contact an overseas number."I've gotten someone to investigate the number's location. It belongs to Ms. Vaughn."Curtis, who had been busy working on the computer, looked up at Chester and asked, "Tammy?"Chester replied, "Yes. There
Margot and Ashley stayed in the Evans residence upon Pamela's arrangement.The architecture here was different from the modern splendor of Amberville. Its grandeur gave out an ancient and solemn feeling.Perhaps it was due to Margot's pregnancy that she had felt tired.She was arranged to stay in an exquisite big room. She didn't know how long she had slept. It was only when she vaguely felt someone beside her that she woke up.As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Laura's bright and childish face smiling at her.Margot felt embarrassed as she sat up.She reached over to ruffle Laura's hair and said, "Long time no see, Laura."Laura said sweetly, "It's been a while. Get up soon. I'll bring you down to eat!""Alright," Margot replied before getting up and getting dressed.Laura took her hand and led her out of the room to a vast and splendid dining hall. A young man dressed in an intricate and ornate attire was standing in the dining hall.Looking at his figure, Margot wonde
Laura sounded as if she were speaking about the mafia.Margot wasn't interested in the Morris family matters.She got up and said, "Didn't you say you'll bring me around, Laura? Let's go!"Laura immediately pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry, Margot, I still need to practice the piano. I'll ask Uncle Royce to bring you around, okay?"Margot was about to reject the offer.Royce immediately got up and said, "You're our guest, Margot. Let me do the honors. Laura might not know as much since she's still young. I'll bring you around so that you can learn about our local customs and culture here."Margot figured that Royce should've stopped his wistful thinking toward her now that he was about to get engaged.She nodded and agreed, "Alright then.""Come with me, Margot," Royce said as he bowed in a gentlemanly manner.Both of them left the palace in a sports car. Royce was the one driving.He drove slowly in order to let Margot have a look around. He even explained to her about t
Margot was confused about what the other person was saying. She furrowed her brows and asked, "What are you talking about?" Anthony sized her up and was about to speak again when Laura ran over and said, "Anthony, please don't be so hard on my niece-in-law. She's new here and still getting used to things."Anthony's focus shifted to Laura as he asked, "What did you just call her?""Margot is my niece-in-law! She's married to Curty, and she's even expecting a baby now. Please don't be so harsh on her. You might frighten the baby inside her belly."Anthony was at a loss for words.After glancing at Margot again, he fell silent.So, she really didn't have that kind of relationship with Royce?When he realized that he might have misunderstood her, he lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry. I've got it wrong."With that, he turned around and walked away.As Margot watched his retreating figure, her mind was flooded with fragmented memories.It felt as though she had seen him befor
The garden was like a maze, meandered with all sorts of twists and turns. After walking for more than ten minutes, everything suddenly opened up before them."Wow, look at that! A wall full of roses! Isn't it beautiful?" Laura exclaimed as she excitedly pointed at the roses blooming all over the wall ahead.Margot thought it was very beautiful as well.Those appeared to be Cerulia roses rather than the typical roses.The roses were a vibrant red, each one blooming with such intensity that it was difficult to refrain from reaching out and touching them.Once she saw that she had succeeded, Laura smiled mischievously and quickly ran off.Before Margot knew it, Laura had disappeared. She quickly went to look for her.She looked for her for a long time but still couldn't find her. However, she gradually felt like the garden's layout seemed quite familiar to her.It felt as if she had been there before.However, upon further reflection, she realized that there was no way she could
"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
