Gabriel tried to lift his hand again to hold Natalie's hand, but Natalie coldly shook it off. She looked at him coldly and said mercilessly, "Gabriel, face reality. We've been divorced for four years. Please don't interfere in my life or appear in my world."Natalie had completely lost any feelings for this man. The only connection she had with him was that he was the father of her child. That was all. Not all breakups could be reconciled, not all relationships could have a perfect ending. Their marriage had ended tragically, and even if they got back together, they could never return to their original state. How could Natalie be so foolish as to repeat the same mistakes?"Natalie, please don't be like this. I still love you. I've always loved you," Gabriel said, choked with emotion. He lowered his posture and pleaded pitifully, "Give me another chance. I'll listen to you and do whatever you say. Come back to me, don't be with other men, Natalie...""Enough, Gabriel," Natalie
"Stop it, don't fight anymore." Calvin finally stopped and turned to Natalie. He comforted her, saying, "Don't be afraid, I'll call someone to take him away."Natalie looked at the man lying on the ground, bruised and swollen. For some reason, she took out her phone and called his assistant. After making the call, she approached Gabriel and stood in front of him, saying coldly, "Gabriel, listen carefully. I don't love you, and from now on, you're not allowed to appear in front of me ever again. Even if you die for me, I won't look back."With that, she didn't show any nostalgia and turned around. She gestured to Calvin.Calvin threw Gabriel out of the room and closed the door. Gabriel struggled to get up from the corridor. His hands were covered in blood as he pounded on the door, his body weak and in pain. He screamed, "Natalie! Natalie, don't do this! We have a child together, why can't we go back?""Natalie, I was wrong. Give me another chance.""Natalie, I still love you
Calvin didn't want to pressure her. He quickly agreed, "Alright, I'll leave. Don't leave so late at night. I'll send you off tomorrow morning.""Okay," Natalie replied absentmindedly.Seeing her agreement, Calvin didn't dare to make her feel uncomfortable any longer. He quickly left after closing the door behind him.Left alone in the room, Natalie sat back on the sofa, her mind in turmoil. She suddenly didn't know what to do to make everyone alright. She couldn't deny that she liked Calvin, but Gabriel's appearance troubled her. It also made her lose confidence in whether she could continue with Calvin. She was afraid that in the end, everyone would end up wounded, without a perfect ending. She was afraid that Gabriel would harm her child. She was afraid that the Morris family would interfere in her relationship with Calvin. Too many worries made her hesitate, afraid to continue down this path.That night, Nataliecouldn't sleep at all. Before dawn, she quietly packed her t
Their arrival attracted the furious barking of the dogs. Lilac was not afraid of the dogs at all, and she wanted to run over to them. However, the subordinates quickly picked her up. They were worried that the dogs might bite the child, and reassured her, "Miss Lianlian, don't go near the dogs. Dogs might bite people."Only then did Lilac obediently refrain from approaching the dogs.The group arrived at the flat courtyard, searching around but found no signs of anyone nearby. Curtis gestured to his subordinates, "Go knock on the door."The subordinates went to knock on the door, but as before, there was no response. The door remained tightly shut.Returning to report, one of the subordinates said, "Boss, there seems to be no one inside. We've been here before and knocked on the door, but no one answered. We asked the villagers nearby, and they said that the person living here is very strange. It's hard to see his face. He always has disheveled hair and doesn't dress well."Ma
Inside the wooden house… Seeing that the group outside did not leave and even set up camp, Lena had no choice but to turn and enter the house. Passing through two wooden rooms and crossing a long natural corridor, she entered a hidden world within the cave. Inside, the lights were bright, and the sound of spring water echoed. Countless books were piled up in disorder around, and amidst them sat a man with long white hair, shrouding his features. Only a tall nose bridge and moderately thin lips could be vaguely seen beneath his long hair.He sat with a pile of books in his arms, either recording something with a pen or flipping through them. Hearing footsteps, even without seeing the newcomer, he knew the reason.Without waiting for Lena to speak, the man's low and lazy voice echoed, "Don't mind them. A bunch of merchants with nothing but the smell of copper on them. Time is most precious to them. They'll leave on their own in three to five days."Lena nodded, "Yes, Master."L
Curtis took the earring from her hand and looked at Margot. He asked, "Isn't this yours?""How could it be mine? Can't you see I don't even have my ears pierced?" Margot replied.Curtis paused, holding the earring in his hand, and looked towards the direction of the wooden house. In a moment of revelation, the image of the old woman flashed before his eyes. Her face was wrinkled, her hair unkempt, and her dress ragged and unkempt. How could such a person wear such a beautiful earring? Moreover, the eyes of an old person wouldn't be so innocent.The next moment, Curtis was certain. "She's pretending.""Hmm?" Margot was puzzled.Curtis explained, "I said that the old woman we just saw, she's pretending. She might just be a young person. The person we're looking for isn't her.""Are you sure?"Curtis held up the earring. "This is the evidence. And I noticed her eyes when she looked at us just now. An old person wouldn't have that kind of vitality.""What should we do now?" Mar
Curtis stated that the person inside was a girl pretending to be an old woman, so Margot observed more closely. Seeing her bright eyes fixated on the food in her hand but still deliberately refusing, Margot believed Curtis' words. The person inside was indeed a girl pretending to be an old woman.Margot insisted on handing the food to her. She said, "You should take it and try it. If it doesn't suit your taste, we can make something else for you. Or if you have any preferences, just let us know, and we'll prepare it for you."Unable to resist the temptation of the food, she finally accepted Margot's bowl. "Since you made it for me, I'll eat it. But don't blame me for eating your food if I'm unable to help you.""Don't worry, please enjoy," Margot replied.After accepting the food, Lena quickly closed the door and placed the food on the table. She then began to devour the food. Growing up with her master in this place, Lena had never been outside and had never tasted food from t
Margot shook her head. She said, "I'm not sleepy. If you're tired, you can go to sleep first.""Then I'm not sleepy either."Curtis looked down at her and asked, "What are you thinking about?""Nothing much."Ye Che tilted his head. He smiled with narrowed eyes, and lifted his hand to pinch her delicate face."I can still see through you. Tell me, what are you thinking?"Even after four years, Margot's face still felt irresistible to touch.Sometimes Curtis wondered, "how can someone be so endearing and lovely?"She was like this, and so was their little daughter. He was content to have them both in his life.Margot glanced at his actions and pouted. "Why do you always like to pinch my face?"This gesture had been his favorite since their marriage. Didn't he know it was quite painful?Curtis chuckled and leaned in. He rubbed his face against Margot's cheek, tenderly saying, "Because I love it. Margot, you are the most precious treasure of my life. Of course, our daughter too
