Chapter 386

Author: Miles of Scenery
Zyla's face was full of disgust as she said, "That woman must've fed you with some kind of love potion. Why would you anger Mother just for her sake?"

"Don't bother about that. Just help me persuade Mother, okay?" Anthony said anxiously.

He had always treasured Zyla since they were young and never once refused her requests. He had even abducted Royce back all the way from Amberville just for her.

Anthony had treated her well, and it was his first time asking her for a favor. Surely she would help him out, right?

However, the more he cared for another, the more displeased Zyla was.

Her expression darkened.

She then turned her nose up and said mercilessly, "I wouldn't want to waste my energy offending Mother just for some lowborn pleb.

"You have such bad taste to have fallen for such a woman, Anthony. You should just stay here and ponder over your mistakes instead."

Zyla turned and left defiantly, completely disregarding the sibling bond they once shared.

She turned into a compl

    Royce's hands curled into fists when he heard Anthony's words. He was tempted to punch him. He restrained himself from doing so and pulled Anthony by the collar.He said in a low voice, "First, you caused her miscarriage, and now you got both of them into such trouble. Are you still not aware of your status? Don't you know your family would never allow you to be together with a commoner?"Royce continued, "Back when I found out that the two of you were together, I told you not to bring her home and not let your family know about it. Yet you refused to listen to me."You kept thinking they would accept her just because of your child, but look what happened! They haven't found out that Margot was once married. And they might just kill her if they did."In a rage, Royce pushed Anthony away and tried his best to calm down. He needed to get Margot out quickly. Otherwise, she might die in the dungeon."I know I was wrong. I promise that I won't bother her again if it means ensuring her

    Upon hearing those words, Regina looked up at Zyla and asked, "Can you guarantee you'll conceive a daughter then?"Zyla was confused and asked, "Do you like daughters better, Mom?"Regina continued to feed Lilac attentively as she explained, "You didn't know this, but our family has a special lineage. It was harder for us to conceive girls, and even you were born through my desperate efforts back then."Look at your uncles' families. None of them could conceive daughters at all."Zyla was speechless. No wonder she was the only girl in their generation.Her gaze landed on Lilac. She recalled that Lilac was Anthony's legitimate daughter. She would grow up to be the legitimate granddaughter of the Morris family.Wouldn't Zyla have to split half of the Morris family's possessions with her then?Zyla didn't want to share what rightfully belonged to her with another person, not even with her own niece.She pretended not to care and coldly glanced over at the female attendants by the

    Lilac woke up just as the sky was about to lighten up the next morning. She pouted as she glared at Regina sleeping beside her. She hated Regina so much.Upon realizing Regina was still asleep, she quietly got off the bed and slipped out of the house without anyone noticing.She knew she couldn't get out by herself since there were surveillance cameras and adults guarding the entrance. As such, she ran to hide in the flowerbed by the palace entrance early on.Frederick had to attend meetings early in the morning daily. His chauffeur would enter the garage at 6:30 am daily to take the car and wait by the palace entrance.As he waited for Frederick to come up and open the door, Lilac suddenly sneaked into the car trunk and hid inside. She knew how to unlock the trunk. She had it figured out back when Margot was driving before this.As such, Lilac hid inside Frederick's car and left the Morris residence without anyone knowing. However, she didn't know where it would send her to.Wha

    When Regina woke up, she did not see Lilac sleeping beside her.She thought the nanny had brought Lilac out and paid no mind to it. She got up, and the female attendants washed her up and got her dressed.When she went to have breakfast in the dining room, she instructed, "Bring Lilac to me."Beside her, the butler nodded and asked, "Where is Ms. Lilac now, Madam?"Regina tilted her head as she looked at the butler in a displeased manner.She said, "Can't you get people to look for her if you don't know where she is?"Lilac was an early riser. Regina was convinced that Lilac went to play with the nanny or the other female attendants. She would never think that Lilac was gone.That was because Lilac couldn't get out of the Morris residence, and no one would dare to bring her out."But she went to bed with you last night. I've only seen you this morning, but not Ms. Lilac," the butler said timidly with his head bowed.He was afraid that Regina would blame him."What do you mean

    Margot nodded.Just as Royce was about to say something, the gatekeeper outside the cell shouted, "Hurry up, Madam is coming!"As soon as he heard the shout, Royce immediately put on his mask and took the doggie bag away from Margot. He then got up and left quickly.Just as he stepped out of the cell, he saw Regina walking down the corridor menacingly. She also had a few female attendants by her side. They looked as if they came with ill intentions.Royce lowered his head and calmly pretended to stand guard by the side. Regina walked past him and went directly to the entrance of Margot's cell.The patrol leader opened the door from beside her and respectfully gestured for Regina to enter the cell. He had even ordered someone to get a chair for her to sit on.Margot was still curled up in the corner. Her gaze was seething with hatred when she saw Regina coming in.Regina sat on the chair with a stern expression and an overbearing aura.She eyed Margot and coldly asked, "Do you k

    Regina's heart rattled upon hearing that something happened to Zyla.She got up and looked at the bodyguard outside the door, asking, "What happened to Zyla?""She seemed to be involved in a car accident," Royce answered with his head low.He was still nervous despite wearing a mask and talking in a different tone.He knew this family all too well. They were ruthless and wouldn't stop at anything. They would never forgive him if he was found lying.Regina was worried about Zyla and was about to leave to check on her daughter. However, she stopped walking and turned to look at Margot on the ground.She returned to kick her helpers away when she saw they were unwilling to slash Margot's face still.Regina personally took the blade over from one of the attendants and pulled Margot's face up by her hair.She coldly snorted and said, "This is the face that seduced Anthony, right? I'll personally ruin it today. I'd like to see how you'll continue to seduce him now!"As soon as she w

    Regina rushed to pull Zyla over as she looked her over.She asked worriedly, "Are you alright? Where are you hurt?"Zyla was confused as she replied, "I'm fine. I can't find Royce, Mom. Hurry up and send people to look for him! Did he run away again because he didn't want me anymore?"Regina ignored Zyla and asked, "Weren't you involved in a car accident?""Huh? How could I be involved in a car accident when I didn't even leave the house?"Zyla tugged at Regina's hands and pleaded with her. "Please send people to look for Royce, Mom! He's gone now! He's thinking of leaving me again!"When she saw Zyla crying, Regina quickly hugged her and coaxed, "Alright, I'll send people to look for him. Don't cry, Zyla. Royce wouldn't dare to leave you."Regina then instructed the butler behind her and said, "Go and get Calvin to send his men out to look for Royce. After that, bring the bodyguard from the dungeon who lied about Zyla being involved in a car accident to me!"She would tear tha

    Royce led Margot through the dungeon's secret passage and escaped to the mountain at the back.When he saw that her face had gone pale from the unbearable pain, he sat her down by the large tree. He had a heartbreaking look on him.Royce said, "Let's take a break for now. You're feeling uncomfortable, right? Just endure for a bit more. It'll be fine after we leave this place."He knew Margot was in great pain, but he had no medicine on him, and they were now in the mountains. There was no way to relieve her pain.Margot frowned. Her vision was blurry, and she felt weak from the pain all over her body. She could vaguely feel the wound on her face was bleeding.She weakly told Royce, "See if there's any Artemisia around the area. That plant is around this height and has bitter leaves. Get me some of those. They would stop the bleeding and heal the wound."Margot had been slashed on the face. She wasn't sure how deep the wound was, but it was swollen and painful. Even the cobwebs co

    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
