Hearing Anya's words, Curtis' heart was in his throat. He cried out urgently, "Aunt Anya, please calm down. Didn't we agree that I would help you rescue Lucas and make your child the heir of the Crosby family, and then you would return my daughter? "I've already sent someone to bail out Lucas, and I've already arranged for the preparation of a property transfer agreement. Please don't hurt my daughter. Aunt Anya, I beg you not to hurt her. She's only three years old. If you're still not satisfied, come at me instead. I'm willing to trade my life for my daughter's."Fearing that Anya might change her mind, Curtis signaled the driver to drive straight towards them.He checked the location. Anya's car had already stopped on the coastal road.The distance between them was gradually closing in.When they finally arrived at Anya's location, Curtis saw many people blocking her way. Among them was Calvin.They completely surrounded Anya in the middle, with a cliff overlooking the sea
But...Before they could achieve their goals, Anya, in her desperate and irrational state, recklessly drove the car directly at Lilac's fragile body.Just as Curtis was a few feet away from his daughter, Lilac's body was sent flying through the air by the car.Finally, she landed heavily on top of the car, and both she and the car crashed through the guardrail and plunged off the cliff into the sea."No!"Curtis' eyes widened in despair as he screamed in agony.As he watched his daughter and the car plummet into the sea, he rushed forward without hesitation and jumped in after them."Curtis!"Calvin ran after him, trying to stop him, but he was too late.Standing on the side of the road, he watched as the car plunged into the sea. Perhaps because Anya had pressed the switch of the timed bomb, the car exploded.Curtis and Lilac's figures were also caught up in the explosion.The once calm sea was now churned up to several tens of yards high by the explosion. For a moment, the
Calvin was overcome with tears and knelt there in utter despair. What was he going to do? Both Lilac and Curtis were dead. How would he explain this to his sister when he returned? He couldn't accept such a tragedy, and he dared not believe that he had seen Curtis and Lilac leave with his own eyes. He collapsed to the ground, shaking with sobs. Meanwhile, back at the Crosby residence, Margot felt as if her heart was being crushed by a millstone. She struggled to breathe from the pain. She couldn't straighten up. Tears streamed uncontrollably down her face. Laura walked over to her and held her up. "Margot, are you okay?" Margot couldn't say a word. She was just crouched down on the floor, clutching her chest tightly. She felt really uncomfortable. She didn't know if Curtis had managed to save their daughter. She was afraid that something might have happened to them. "Margot, don't worry. Curt is so capable; he will definitely bring Lilac back. I see you're sweat
Calvin should have known this would be the result. As his subordinates helped him into the car, he still couldn't accept the fact that Curtis and Lilac were gone. He pulled out his phone and looked at the screen that showed the incoming call from Margot. He didn't dare to answer. He was afraid his sister couldn't handle the truth. Tears streamed down his face as he looked up. His men drove off. On the way back, Calvin was in excruciating pain. When he arrived at the Crosby residence at 10:00 pm, he couldn't hide the tragic news, though he didn't want to give Margot bad news.Finally, with heavy steps, he got out of the car and walked to the front door of the mansion. Hearing that someone had come with updates, Margot rushed to the door. When she saw Calvin from a distance in the garden, she ran to him. She grabbed him and asked eagerly, "Calvin, where are Lilac and Curtis? Why are you alone? Weren't you with them? Or did you not find them?" Seeing Margot so anxious t
Margot had a dream.In the dream, she was wearing a pure white wedding dress, a crown on her head, and her makeup was delicate. On her feet were custom-made crystal high heels. She exuded elegance as she linked arms with her family and walked step by step toward the man in the spotlight. Curtis, in a custom-made white suit, stood tall and noble. He held flowers in his hand, smiling lightly like the wind. Margot looked at him with joy in her eyes. That's right, today was her and Curtis' big wedding. She was in her wedding dress. Under the witness of friends and family, she was about to become his lawful wife. She was very happy. She desperately wanted to quickly walk down the flower-covered stage before her, eagerly take the ring he offered her, eagerly accept the words of the priest, and loudly tell him, "I do."But before she could even approach the man, a little girl suddenly appeared beside her, running ahead of her toward Curtis.Margot looked at the little girl.
Margot couldn't breathe; she felt like she was going to die. She felt so uncomfortable. Her body seemed to have fallen into an abyss, icy cold, unable to move. "Margot, wake up, don't scare us, wake up, okay?""Margot, you can't do this. Without Curtis and Lilac, you still have us.""If Curtis knew you were like this, he would be upset too.""Margot, wake up, okay? Margot..."The familiar voices echoed in her ears.She also heard the names Curtis and Lilac.Where was she? Why was she in so much pain?Why couldn't she see anything?She desperately tried to regain consciousness, to open her eyes.Dazed, she finally saw a ray of light.Then she saw a familiar face, urgently calling out to her, "Margot, Margot!"Margot, lying on the hospital bed, finally woke up. Her eyes were red and moist, unable to focus, looking dull, hollow, and full of despair.The people at her bedside saw her wake up, and they all crowded around her, showing concern."Margot, you finally woke up.
During those three days, Margot showed no symptoms of illness, but her heart almost stopped several times. Everyone had been eagerly awaiting her awakening, but now that she was crying and asking to see Curtis and Lilac, everyone's hearts felt as if they were being torn apart. Margot was still being held by Natalie. She had no time to think about who was around her. In her mind, she replayed the words that Calvin and Natalie had said to her. They had both said that Curtis and Lilac weren't coming back. How could that be? Curtis wouldn't leave her behind. With her remaining consciousness, Margot cried and begged in Natalie's arms, "Natalie, please don't scare me. My heart hurts so much. Please let Curtis come to me and my Lilac, she's only three years old. "They're both my life. How could they leave me? Are you lying to me? My Lilac and Curtis aren't dead, are they?" Natalie couldn't bear to see her unable to accept reality. She couldn't stand her own grief either
Margot's mind was filled with thoughts of Curtis and her daughter. She couldn't even hear what Lena was saying. She sat on the floor, holding the relics of Curtis and Lilac, and cried until her heart was torn apart, almost choking several times.Lena hugged her tightly and cried with her. "Margot, my master is not only highly skilled in medicine, but also in divination. He said that Lilac would become his student, so Lilac must not have died. Maybe she was just washed out to sea and we haven't found her yet."Hearing this, Margot's body gradually calmed down. Next to her, Anthony reminded Lena, "If you say that, you'll only make her suffer more in the future. It's better to face the truth sooner rather than later."Lena turned to look at Anthony and replied, "I'm stating the facts. Since we haven't found their bodies, how can you conclude that they must be dead? Without bodies, shouldn't we hold on to a glimmer of hope? "Besides, what my master says always comes true. Do you kno
