Chapter 374

Author: Miles of Scenery
Natalie continued, "Don't stress about it any longer. It's getting late. You should rest. I'll fetch Lilac. Lilac was constantly crying for you when you were gone."

"Thanks, Natalie."

Expressing gratitude, Margot rose to head for a shower.

By the time Natalie brought Lilac back, Margot had completed her shower and changed into her sleep attire. Eventually, all three of them settled on the same bed.

Anthony came back early the next day after having taken care of everything.

Upon his return, Margot was still asleep, holding Lilac. Meanwhile, Natalie was in the kitchen preparing breakfast with the chef.

Spotting Natalie arranging cutlery in the dining room, Anthony asked her, "Where's Margot?"

Natalie looked up and met Anthony's gaze. "She might have been too tired last night, so she's still sleeping. Just let her get some more sleep."

Anthony agreed and took a seat in the dining room.

After that, he gestured to Natalie and said, "You're a guest here, so you shouldn't trouble you

    Learning about the need to go to the Morris residence left Margot astonished. Feeling somewhat guilty, she lowered her head to hide her reluctance. "I think I should go to the hospital then."Anthony hummed in acknowledgment. Despite feeling somewhat disappointed, he kept his emotions to himself. After lunch, he took her to the hospital.After the doctor assured Margot that there were no major issues, they prescribed some topical medications and advised her to get some rest.As they left the hospital and settled into Anthony's car, he looked at her and asked, "Is everything alright?"Margot nodded and said, "I've already said that I'm fine, but you still insisted on me getting a check-up.""Well, that's good to hear. Are you prepared to go back to my place and meet my parents?"Anthony started the car and drove away.Margot turned to him and asked, "Didn't you say that if I came to the hospital, I wouldn't have to go to your house?""What I meant was, should we go to the hospit

    Natalie had to go back to work, so she returned to Cordonia two days after Margot got home.Anthony had already prepped everything by then. That afternoon, he personally took Margot and Lilac back to the Morris residence.That was only Margot's second visit to the palace. Still, she sensed something familiar about that luxurious palace.However, she couldn't recall when she had come here except for that time four years ago. Anthony was holding Lilac when they entered the palace. She was so excited that she clapped and exclaimed, "Wow! What a big and beautiful house! Is this your house, Daddy? Can I be the princess of this palace in the future?"Anthony chuckled and stroked Lilac's chubby cheeks lovingly."Of course. You can be the princess of this palace forever if that is what you wish.""Okay! I want to be the princess."Lilac was ecstatic. She sat in the crook of Anthony's arms while scanning the palace endlessly. Her big, round eyes shone with nothing but glee and curiosit

    Margot was perplexed by Frederick's words. Just as she was about to speak, Anthony beat her to it. "Dad, I—""Did I allow you to speak?"Frederick's face was stern as he glared. His frightening gaze got Anthony to clamp his mouth shut.When he turned his attention back to Margot, he explained, "I'll make this simpler for you. You can stay for a while. We'll evaluate your performance."In other words, they would kick her out if she performed poorly.How could Margot have known that no matter how she performed, there was no way the family would accept her?All they wanted was Lilac. The purpose behind her temporary stay was to make it easier for Lilac to assimilate into the family. That way, Lilac would no longer need her in the future.Margot wanted to protest, but Anthony whispered in her ear before she could do so. "Take the deal, Margot. Don't worry. I'll handle the rest."Hearing that, Margot kept her thoughts to herself and replied, "Okay."Everyone else was still sizing M

    That evening, Natalie sensed something amiss. Deep down, she knew Margot still harbored feelings for Curtis. There might have been a misunderstanding between them.Curtis gazed at Natalie, knowing that she was his only hope. She could help him in clarifying things with Margot.Had Margot been privy to the truth, perhaps she wouldn't have been so callous toward him.As he lay there, he murmured weakly, "She thought I was cheating on her and had a child with another woman."Natalie's expression changed upon hearing that, prompting her to ask, "Are you saying that she misunderstood you?"Curtis hummed in acknowledgment. "What on earth is going on here?"As the anesthesia wore off, pain radiated through his body.Despite his discomfort, Curtis persisted in explaining to Natalie. "Doris' daughter set me up. She took advantage of my drunken state and climbed into my bed."She accused me of sleeping with her and later claimed that she was pregnant with my child. However, it turned o

    Curtis found himself grappling with the same question—did it truly bother him that Margot had a child with another man?Curtis acknowledged that indeed, the fact that Margot had a child with someone else did bother him.Yet, dwelling on it seemed futile. What mattered most was winning her back, regardless of past circumstances."You should take some time to think about it. If you truly can't imagine life without her, wait until your leg has healed and then have a proper conversation with her. Remember to use conventional methods to win her over."If the fact that she has a child with someone else bothers you, then perhaps it's best not to interfere further in her life. Margot is a living human being, not your possession."When Natalie thought about how she had finally made a trip back to Amberville, she decided to go home and visit her parents.She had said everything she needed to say. It was up to Curtis to determine his course of action.Before Natalie walked away, she added,

    What troubled Margot the most was that Regina would take Lilac away from her every day and only return her at night. Moreover, Lilac wasn't even allowed to attend preschool.Anthony had told her that his mother loved Lilac so much that she wanted her to spend more time with her.Since Lilac would be returned to her at night, Margot didn't dwell on the matter.Anthony was called away early that day due to some matters.Margot suddenly thought about her own work. She hadn't been to her jewelry stores in a long time and was unsure whether her employees were slacking off. She decided to find out. Upon returning to the Morris residence at 7:00 pm after a day of bustling activity, Margot was stopped by the bodyguard."Miss, you're not allowed to enter."Margot's heart skipped a beat when she heard that.She looked at the bodyguard and chuckled, "Why not? I left this place in the morning. I'm Anthony's girlfriend. Don't you recognize who I am?"The bodyguard was standing in the gua

    Lilac had no ties to the Morris family. She was her daughter. Suddenly, a surge of excitement overcame Margot. She turned to Zyla and leaned against the car window."I can prove that Lilac has no connection with the Morris family. If you don't believe it, you can...""Zyla, let's go!" Royce exclaimed, effectively cutting off Margot. He then gave Margot a look as if signaling something to her.Margot wasn't foolish. She noticed the way Royce looked at her and understood that he was hinting her not to continue speaking and causing a scene. He would help her get Lilac out.She recalled Royce's words back at Hexa Villa.Anthony even told her not to get too involved with Zyla, for his sister was difficult to deal with. Thus, Margot fell silent and stepped aside.Zyla glanced at her with a mocking smile. "You're so out of your depth."She then instructed the driver to start the car.Margot watched as the car entered the Morris residence. Desperate, she pulled out her phone to cal

Sleep eluded her as her mind was consumed by thoughts of Lilac.Two days had elapsed, and Royce had yet to retrieve Lilac. Adding to Margot's distress, she found herself unable to reach Anthony. She didn't know what to do.She had reported to the police, but they asked her to wait. But how could Margot wait?Only now did she realize that the Morris family, which Royce had described as formidable, was indeed not to be trifled with.

She couldn't bear the pain, and tears welled up in he

    Curtis didn't argue with her, and instead, he took her hand and led her inside.Margot noticed that despite Curtis' stern demeanor, he still showed care for her through his actions. She smiled knowingly and playfully asked while walking beside him, "What, can't find me at certain times and you're worried I ran off with someone else?"Curtis glanced at her and scoffed."Would you dare? If you dare run off with someone else, I'll break your legs."Despite speaking harsh words, the expression on the face and the gaze in the eyes directed at Margot were so gentle, it seemed as if they could bring forth tears.Margot listened to his violent words and stared at him, "Say it again, whose legs are you going to break?"Curtis was standing there. Although he still had a bit of presence, his facial expression already showed defeat.Before he could try to please his wife again, Margot had already brushed past him and slipped through the mansion's front doors.While running, he shouted, "An

    So Gabriel had to personally drive her wherever she needed to go.Curtis listened to the two people and narrowed his eyes again."Who else?""Anthony."Anthony?Curtis was momentarily taken aback.Then, he saw Anthony coming out of the kitchen wearing an apron and carrying a plate, and walking into the dining room.He set down his coat and told Luna, "You sit, I'll go help.""Go ahead."Curtis followed into the kitchen and saw that Anthony and Gabriel were acting as if they were in their own home, helping themselves to whatever they wanted to eat and making it themselves.He also felt a bit embarrassed and walked over, saying, "It's not right to have you cook since you're visiting, let me do it instead."Gabriel glanced at him and said, "We all treat you like one of us, so why are you being so formal with us?"Anthony responded, "I'm making it for my wife, after all, she only eats the food that I make."Curtis shook his head helplessly.They were showing off their relatio

    Margot and Lena turned their heads at the same time.Jordan was dressed in a British-style uniform with a backpack. At eight years old, he stood around four feet tall. His smile was like a little ray of sunshine and could really brighten anyone's day.He shouted, "Mom, Aunt Lena, did you come specifically to pick me up?"Every time Margot heard Jordan call her "mom," it filled her heart with warmth.She raised her hand to give him a hug, gently ruffled his hair, and said, "Of course I'm here to pick you up, get in the car.""It's been a month since I last saw you, and you've grown taller."Lena pulled Jordan onto the vehicle and started driving.Sitting in the car, Jordan couldn't help but smile as he looked at his senior.Lena looked at him and smiled, "Living here, how does it compare to being up in the mountains?"Jordan's eyes landed on Margot, filled with warmth and joy."Wherever my mom and dad are, I feel is the best place. Of course, I'm not saying that being with Mas

    Margot greeted them with a smile, saying, "I thought you two would be quietly enjoying your romantic time at the estate. I didn't expect you'd come over to see us!"Lena reached out and gently pinched Louis' round cheeks, then looked at Margot and said, "You keep saying that, but you're not working, so why don't you come visit us?""I'm at home taking care of the kids. You have no idea how challenging it is.""Heh, you're just unfairly blaming Louis. Our little Louis is clearly very well-behaved."Lena ignored Margot and couldn't help but give Louis a couple of kisses after picking him up.Anthony walked over and asked, "Where is everyone else?"Margot motioned for them to come over and sit down, then poured them some water."Natalie just had her baby not long ago, and my in-laws went with Natalie's parents and the others to visit the babies, and they're also going to visit Dad."Whenever Anthony talked about his oblivious elderly father, he got frustrated.He didn't ask any m

    Frederick, exuding the presence of the head of the family, welcomed the arriving in-laws with a smile.Afterwards, he behaved well and didn't mention anything about Yasmine, nor did he cause any trouble with his sons.The in-laws were very careful not to mention Frederick's injury, as they didn't want to hurt his pride.Daniel saw how lively it was at home and decided to bring Ena's mother over so that the in-laws could take the opportunity to get to know each other better.In the days that followed, everyone got along very well.In Amberville, Alice Manor.Anthony and Lena were enjoying a peaceful and romantic time together here. No one was bothering them, and they were not going out to work.The two of them spent the entire day cozied up at home.It involved either snacking while watching a movie or playing games followed by some cuddling and kissing.Anthony often made delicious food for Lena and took care of her so well that she seemed completely pampered.This caused Len

    "If you won't let me bring her into the family, fine, I'll set up a large estate elsewhere. When the time comes, I won't let you in either."Daniel felt that his father was quite childish.He chuckled and said, "How about this, once the guests leave, I'll take you back to Yasmine. Then you can tell her that you've cut all ties with us and you want nothing. At that point, Yasmine is still willing to stay by your side and take care of you, then we'll do as you wish. How about that?Regarding the greedy Coran siblings, it was important to know that their father didn't have anything valuable left on him, and they wouldn't gain any benefits either.It would be surprising if she still stayed by Frederick's side."Don't underestimate people; Yasmine's love for me is genuine."Frederick didn't want to bet with Daniel.Human nature was something that shouldn't be gambled on.Daniel laughed again. "Are you afraid of losing, Dad?"Frederick stared at Daniel and said, "When have I ever be

    Yasmine was not happy when she heard she would be left alone.She knelt beside Frederick, holding his hand and pleading desperately, "Frederick, you can't do this. You can't leave me here alone. If you leave, they'll treat me badly again, just like before. Can you take me with you? Even if it's just to be your nanny, I'm begging you!"Frederick could not stand seeing women cry.When Yasmine pleaded like that, he softened and turned to look at Daniel.Daniel, with a blank expression, said, "Dad, do you really want your in-laws to see you like this?"Frederick also looked upset and said in a serious tone:"Couldn't you say she's my nanny? Who would know?""We have kids at home, do they lie?"Frederick had no choice but to turn to Yasmine and said, "Just stay here. They won’t dare bother you again. I'm leaving now."He raised his hand to signal Daniel to push the wheelchair.Daniel pushed the wheelchair forward.However, Yasmine was unwilling and tried to stop it again.The he

    "Are we supposed to live here for the rest of our lives? Even if we have to stay here, at least give us the freedom to come and go as we please."Look at how they've sent so many people to watch over us again, clearly treating us like prisoners."Noticing that Frederick's expression was starting to soften, Yasmine continued to stoke the fire."Tell me, is there any way sons should be treating their father like this? They just want to drive you to your limits so they can split up your assets. Frederick, you can't let them have their way, or else you'll spend your whole life working tirelessly for them only to end up in such a miserable situation. How pitiable that would be.Frederick was speechless.He didn't want to go back. But if he did, his sons would have to treat him with great respect.He hoped that Calvin would bring the military seal, and it had been two days now, yet they still hadn't delivered it to him.Was he really planning on not giving it to him?As soon as he th

    She ignored him, and Tommy didn't take the initiative to talk to her either to avoid making her overthink.After sitting in the living room for a while, he waited for all the members of the Crosby family to come downstairs. Once they did, he followed them to the dining room for a meal.As soon as Tommy arrived, Laura put down her fork, got up, and without looking back, said, "Enjoy your meal, I'm heading to the university.""Heading out so early?" Ashley asked.However, she didn't respond and slipped out the door directly.Elias said, "There's an exam coming up, so she's been very focused. She goes in early every day."Curtis and the others didn't seem to mind and invited Tommy to sit down.Only Margot knew why Laura walked so quickly.It was because Tommy was here.Laura had a crush on this big celebrity, and since she couldn't be with him, it was naturally difficult for her to interact with him further.So it was completely understandable that she avoided him whenever she s
