Curtis noticed something amiss in Gabriel's voice and asked, "What's wrong?""Nothing," Gabriel replied. "I just wanted to ask you about some things regarding that miracle doctor. Is he a man? How old is he? Does he have any acquaintances? Can you help me get in touch with him?"Curtis thought the person was formidable. It wasn't that he was unwilling to come forward, it was just a matter of whom they chose to honor.It was Gabriel who informed Curtis about the existence of that person; Gabriel should know more about him."I only heard about it from my teachers at the hospital before. I haven't met him, don't know him well, let alone whether he's a man or woman and how old.""Is your teacher acquainted with him?"Gabriel sighed and said, "My teacher passed away."Curtis fell silent.It seemed that there was no acquaintance to invite the miracle doctor, so Curtis could only find a child to send over to take a look."Curtis, did you come back from the countryside? Did you retu
Curtis realized it was a classic love triangle scenario. Calvin, with his formidable skills, was not someone many could defeat. Curtis sighed and shared his perspective, "If Natalie also has feelings for Calvin, then indeed, you can't really stop her. After all, you've been divorced for four years. But..."Gabriel's eyes widened, hopeful for some strategic advice. Ye Che continued, "You have a child together with Natalie. Start by winning over the child. If the kid likes you, Natalie is likely to side with the child too."This strategy had worked for Curtis himself, initially bonding with their child to mend the relationship with Margot. Of course, he was aware that Margot reconciling with him had as much to do with his illness as their child, but nevertheless, their reunion was genuine."I've considered that, so I sent someone to Cordonia. I plan to bring him here during his vacation. My concern is that he's nine years old now. He understands a lot, and I fear he might not acce
Considering his responsibility towards Margot and Anthony, Calvin felt compelled to return to Amberville and seek help from Margot. Margot, sitting beside him with a thermos, remained silent.She knew Natalie had confided her feelings for Calvin to her. But Margot suspected Natalie's reluctance to engage with Calvin involved more than just Gabriel—possibly the influence of the Morris family.Breaking her silence, she asked, "Can you ensure that your relationship with her won't face opposition from your parents?"Calvin glanced at his sister. The words "your parents'' struck a chord. They were obviously both of their parents, but in Margot's heart, she still refused to forgive them."I assure you that our parents won't interfere with my personal matters," he stated.Margot scoffed. "I remember the treatment I received when I first entered your house as Anthony's girlfriend. Calvin, Natalie's avoidance isn't solely because of Gabriel. Consider her broader concerns, including the M
Seeing that Curtis' attitude was still very firm, Margot had no choice but to give up. She only said, "You eat, I'm going to see Anthony."Curtis could clearly sense that Margot was somewhat upset. He did not try to keep her but watched as she left.Just as Margot arrived at the door of Anthony's hospital room, she encountered Calvin coming out. He greeted her and asked, "Shouldn't you have arrived at the hospital room earlier? Where have you been? But you're just in time, Anthony said he wanted to see you."Ye Shengsheng hummed nonchalantly and entered the room.Calvin stood at the door, watching Margot's retreating figure with a furrowed brow. Whom had she just brought food for? Did she have another friend staying in the hospital? Without overthinking, Calvin also entered the room.On the hospital bed, Anthony was still paralyzed. Except for his torso, his limbs were still immobile. Seeing Ye Shengsheng coming, he wanted to sit up but was powerless. He eventually laid back d
Margot glanced at Calvin, thinking he was the one who had spoken about it. Calvin immediately turned to Anthony, persuading, "Anthony, leave Margot's matters alone.""I wouldn't care if she weren't my sister, but she is now," Anthony retorted. His recent rest had revitalized him, and though he couldn't get up, his bodily functions were normal. He looked at Margot with a mix of frustration and disappointment, "Do you love him that much? A man who injured me like this, cheated during his marriage, and kept a mistress and illegitimate child outside – is he really worth your continuous, undignified support?"In Anthonyi's eyes, Curtis was a man of corrupted morals and twisted values, exploiting his power and status to hurt Margot repeatedly. He couldn't stand it, wondering why she chose Curtis over everyone else."Anthony, stop it," Calvin interjected, worried that Margot would get upset.Margot was trying hard to control her emotions. Taking a deep breath, she looked at Anth
Seeing Margot beside him cry, Curtis felt an inexplicable bitterness in his heart. He gently wiped her tears with his hand, but he disagreed with what she said. "Anthony's injuries will heal, and I am also undergoing treatment. Margot, stop talking nonsense about taking Lilac into the mountains; I won't allow it." Holding her tightly, Curtis tried to comfort her, "It's my fault, making you worry so much for me, I'm sorry!" He took all the blame upon himself, which, in fact, was indeed his responsibility.How could a man let his woman worry so much for him and even shed tears for him? He felt he deserved to die. Initially distressed, Margot was initially distressed, but upon hearing Curtis blame himself, she hurriedly contained her grievance. Moving away from his embrace, she clarified, "Don't overthink; I was just venting. It's not your fault." "How is it not my fault? I hurt Anthony, and my illness has caused you so much worry." Curtis' face clouded over. He gripped her han
"Yeah, Daddy misses his precious girl. Darling, Grandma has come to pick you up. Do you want to go with her?" Lilac saw her grandmother not far away. Ashley was dressed beautifully. Lilac's grandma made all the kindergarten kids envious for having a handsome dad, a beautiful mom, and a kind grandma. Ashley was good, and Lilac was willing to go to the castle to play, especially since there were many brothers and sisters there who were nice to her. Thinking of this, Lilac cheerfully responded, "I want to go with Grandma. Can Daddy come to pick me up later?""Of course, whenever you want Daddy to pick you up, just call, and Daddy will come with Mommy to get you." "Okay, then bye-bye, Daddy." Saying this, Lilac handed the phone back to the teacher. After getting the confirmation, the teacher handed the child over to Ashley.Putting away his phone, Curtis hugged Margot in his arms tighter. "Lilac has been picked up to go to the Crosby residence. Let's see how she does there alon
Curtis found himself speechless, recognizing the futility of reasoning with a woman. Women were quite difficult to deal with.Unable to win the argument, he wrapped her in his large embrace, a place where she couldn't escape and could freely express herself. For Margot, Curtis' arms were the safest and most comforting place in the world. It was a place where she felt utterly content whenever she was held by him.Due to their child being taken to the Crosby residence, Margot decided to stay in the hospital with Curtis. They did not leave the hospital for two days, waiting until the doctor confirmed Curtis' stable condition before planning to return to the Crosby residence to pick up Lilac on the third day.Just as they stepped out of the hospital, Margot's phone rang. It was Natalie's urgent voice on the other end. "Margot, are you busy right now?""Not at all, what's up, Natalie?" "Can you ask Curtis to check with Gabriel if he has taken Benjamin away? Benjamin is missing,
