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
Margot was lying in bed, thinking about everything that had happened to her over the years. She gradually sat up from the bed once she was certain she had remembered everything.She coldly gazed at the man standing by the bed, someone who was completely unknown to her but had been responsible for her unborn child's death.Anthony also looked at the person before him. When he noticed her sudden change in demeanor, he asked with concern, "Are you feeling better now?"Margot remained silent. She avoided looking at him and tried hard to calm herself down.She couldn't risk provoking the person standing before her at that moment.He was ruthless and cold-blooded. If she questioned him about what he had done to her before, he might prevent her from leaving this place. She would seek revenge for her child, but not at that moment.She got up, wanting to leave the place.Anthony quickly reached out and held her down. "Stop moving around. The doctor said you need to rest first."Margot i
After a few hours of flying, the plane finally landed. Margot had just stepped off the plane when Curtis hurriedly approached her."Are you feeling unwell, Margot? Should we go to the hospital first?"Margot stopped in her tracks, her gaze faintly fixed on the tall figure before her. Her face was devoid of emotion, and she remained silent.Before her was the man that she had liked for many years.He was the one who had once saved her from despair and given her hope. Yet, the "Curt" she kept calling out for was also the one who had personally destroyed that hope. If it weren't for him, how could Tammy have killed her unborn child and then become so depraved as to try to kill her as well?Now that she had remembered everything, she clearly remembered how Curtis had treated her that day by the river and how Tammy had treated her as well.She would never forget the pain they both caused her for the rest of her life."Margot?" Curtis became even more worried when he noticed her sta
Curtis felt uncomfortable when he heard the word "lover". Nonetheless, he wore a calm expression as he reassured Margot, saying, "Don't get carried away with your imagination. There's no such thing."Margot scoffed, feigning indifference.At that moment, she really didn't care anymore.Tammy had already crushed her spirit, hadn't she?Now, another one had come along.It seemed like the man beside her could never change his old ways, could he?It was foolish to expect a man to change for the better. His nature was such, and it could never be changed.What she needed to do now was to catch Tammy and shred her to pieces!The contemptuous laugh from the person beside him made Curtis even more uncomfortable. He gazed at her, intending to explain himself, but he didn't know where to start.His investigation had only uncovered Tammy's link to Wendy, and that Wendy had bribed the doctor to prevent her from getting an abortion.Although these two points were enough for him to be ruthl
Margot returned to her room, locked the door, and video-called Natalie.When the other party answered, she smiled and said, "Natalie!""Hey, Margot! How have you been lately?" Natalie asked.They hadn't been in touch for quite some time, and she had gradually started to overcome the pain from her divorce.Margot nodded and said, "I'm doing fine! Where's Benjamin?" "He's at school.""Natalie, would it be possible for you to provide me with your bank account details?"Perplexed, Natalie asked, "What for?""I want to transfer some money to you so that you can help keep it for me."Natalie was still confused. "Why do you want me to help you keep the money?""I-I might visit you guys in the future, and I don't want anyone else to know. I'm worried that I won't have any money when I leave. Since I have quite a bit of money now, I want to transfer it to a safe account so that I can use it later." Margot tried hard to keep her emotions in check as she said that. She didn't want Na
