Chapter 399

Author: Miles of Scenery
As long as Margot could prove she was related to the Morris family, they would return Lilac to her, right?

After a long while, she returned from the washroom and sat behind Calvin. She then plucked some of Calvin's hair while he was asleep and hid them away.

Calvin felt something on his head, but he only opened his eyes to look at Margot before he continued to rest.

The duo walked out of the plane once they landed in Amberville. Calvin then handed Margot a wad of cash and a face mask.

Margot looked at him, confused.

Calvin explained indifferently, "You have neither money nor a phone on you. How would you survive here alone?

"Take them and remember what I've said. Don't ever come back to Emeria, and don't contact Anthony anymore. Otherwise, I won't let you off the hook!"

Margot recalled that she would need money for the paternity test and to call for a cab. As such, she did not reject his offer and took the money.

"You can leave on your own," Calvin said before turning away t

    Margot didn't want to worry Natalie.She lied, "It's nothing. I'll deal with it soon.""Does it have anything to do with Curtis?"Natalie was afraid that Curtis was the one behind it. She had told him many things back when she had returned to Amberville. She hoped he wasn't doing anything to hurt Margot again.Margot denied. "It's got nothing to do with him. It's my personal matter.""Did Curtis contact you in the past few days, then?" Natalie asked again.She recalled Curtis had told her he wanted to explain everything to Margot, but he couldn't reach her for days.Margot replied, "He didn't. Why would he contact me when he's injured?"Natalie spoke seriously, "Perhaps he couldn't reach you as well. Don't worry, his injury isn't life-threatening."But I've gone to find him previously, Margot. He told me about what happened between the two of you back then. It seemed like you misunderstood him."Margot felt really tired now. She leaned against the bedside and quietly listened

    Curtis was speechless.Margot wanted him to help her get her daughter back? From who? Himself?Why did he feel like they weren't on the same page?Curtis wasn't bothered about it anyway. He started putting on airs again as he said, "Come find me at the hospital if you want to see your daughter."Margot rejected him without thinking and replied, "Never mind, I'll just do it on my own. I'll hang up now."She ended the call without hesitation. Upon thinking that she was most likely a part of the Morris family, she could get Lilac back after getting the paternity test result. She wouldn't need Curtis' help by then.If Curtis were to know that Lilac was his, wouldn't he fight to have her?Even though he did not cheat on Margot back then and did not make Wendy pregnant, they could no longer return to how they were before.She couldn't pretend nothing had happened and go back to him as if everything was normal.…In the hospital ward, Curtis was beyond angry when his call was cut.

    Despite Margot's disbelief that Lilac was with Curtis, she still rushed to the hospital.It was 10:00 pm when she arrived at the hospital. After locating Curtis' hospital ward, she froze in front of the door with her face mask still on. She couldn't find the courage to take a step further.Curtis kept staring at his phone on the hospital bed.Margot was still nowhere to be seen as time passed. He couldn't help but send another video of Lilac to her.When Margot received the video from Curtis, she gathered her courage to open the door and walked in.She stood by the hospital bed and looked at Curtis.She anxiously asked, "Where's Lilac?"Curtis was still staring at his phone. He looked up slowly upon hearing her voice. His gaze was locked on the newcomer as he watched her carefully.It was indeed Margot whom he knew. However, he couldn't understand something. Why did she have a face mask on?Curtis' expression darkened as he spoke in an indifferent tone, "Why aren't you showing

    Margot's voice was low as she wiped away her tears. She didn't expect Lilac to be with Curtis.She no longer had to compromise and go to the Morris residence.Even if she got the DNA report and confirmed that she was their daughter, she no longer needed to associate herself with the Morris family anymore."Take off your face mask," Curtis ordered with a darkened expression.She had been talking to him while having her face mask on. Was she hiding something? It made him displeased that she didn't want him to see her face.Margot refused to do so and said, "Why are you insisting on that? I'm not an imposter. Tell me what I should do so you'll let me meet my daughter!""I asked you to take off your face mask," Curtis said impatiently.Margot asked him, "Would you let me meet my daughter if I take it off?"Curtis remained quiet as he looked at her coldly.Margot lowered her head and averted her gaze before she slowly removed her face mask.Curtis frowned when he saw the layer of

    Margot knew that Curtis wouldn't hurt Lilac. Lilac was an obedient and loveable girl, after all.However, it would take years for her to wait for his leg to heal.She stood by the side, for once at a loss for words.Curtis no longer looked at her. He pressed the call button to summon his doctor.The doctor rushed over while trembling in fear. He noticed there was someone else in the hospital ward, but he dared not look at them a second longer.He asked Curtis, "Are you feeling unwell, Mr. Crosby?""No. Check the injury on her face," Curtis coldly instructed.Margot's expression fell. She wanted to reject the offer when she saw Curtis' cold gaze. She could only remain quiet.The doctor quickly looked at Margot and said, "Come sit here and let me have a look."Margot walked over to sit on the couch obediently before taking off her face mask.The doctor asked the nurse to prepare some medicines for him. He then carefully peeled off the gauze from Margot's cheek.Curtis' chest t

    Even though Margot was now beside Curtis, the thought of her being with someone else and even having a daughter with them made him upset.He truly hated her. At the same time, he couldn't help but miss and want her by his side.However, now that she was by his side, he didn't know how to face her.Curtis knew he was conflicted, but he didn't know what to do.Margot moved in her sleep and kicked her blanket away. Perhaps the air conditioning in the room was too warm, and it made her uncomfortable.Curtis took his walking stick from the side and got down from the bed. He then covered her with the blanket.Before he could cover her up, he saw the blood-red marks below her neckline. They looked like they were whip marks. He felt his heart clenched tightly.Curtis gently lifted Margot's clothes while she was asleep. He saw a large area of her back covered in whip marks. It was a horrifying sight to behold.He was shocked and heartbroken.He looked at her frowning face even when asl

    Margot was speechless."I'll call Chester and ask him to look for buyers now," Curtis said and pretended to make a call.Margot calmly looked at him. She did not believe that he would sell Lilac off.Lilac was his daughter. She would tell him the truth and make him suffer from regret if he really sold Lilac off.Curtis kept his phone and looked at Margot when he realized she did not fall for it.Silence filled the atmosphere as the both of them looked at each other. There was a hint of awkwardness that lingered in the air.Margot quickly avoided his gaze as she continued eating her oatmeal.Curtis no longer forced her as he leaned by the bedside and endured his hunger. He eyed her discreetly when he felt the overbearing hunger.Margot continued to ignore him and went to the washroom after she was done eating. When she came out again, she heard Curtis talking to someone else. She quietly watched him with a tilt of her head.Curtis was facing his phone as he spoke to Lilac. "You

    Kiss him?Looking at Curtis before her, Margot couldn't understand how Curtis would have the audacity to even ask for such a request.Did he really think that she could forget the things he did to her in the past and act as if nothing had happened?Or did he think that she had neither dignity nor a bottom line and she would do anything for him?Margot was displeased. Without hesitation, she dumped the bowl of oatmeal she was holding into the trash can by the side. She then turned to walk toward the balcony.Curtis was speechless. His heart clenched tightly when he saw the way Margot suddenly got mad. She would rather dump the food into the trash can than endure kissing him.He dared not ask for more, knowing that she was angry. He sat there quietly.At that moment, the doctor walked in with some medicine and called out to Margot, who was on the balcony.The doctor said, "Please come in to change your dressing and get your IV drip."Margot turned and walked back to sit on her o

    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
