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
When Margot arrived at the Crosby residence, she saw a black ribbon hanging at the entrance, symbolizing death in the family. Dragging her weak body, she hurried forward, supported all the way by Natalie and Calvin. The household staff led them directly to the hall that had been set up as a memorial.From a distance, they could hear the wailing of many people, painful and continuous, making it impossible to hold back tears. Margot stumbled to the entrance of the memorial hall. From a distance of over several feet, she could see the memorial photos of Curtis and Lilac hanging inside. Tears immediately welled up and she collapsed to the floor."Margot..."Natalie didn't support her. As she looked ahead, the memorial photos of Curtis and Lilac brought tears to her eyes as well.Margot hadn't even had a chance to take one last look at Martin. Instead, she was kneeling here, crying in unbearable grief, her heart torn apart.The staff beside her said with red eyes, "Mrs. Stone, Ma
After a few days, Margot had lost a lot of weight. Regina came to visit her again, but Anthony stopped her. He said, "Mom, you should visit less often lately. Margot is not in good shape."Regina was full of pity. "It's because she's not well that I came to see her.""But Margot doesn't want to see you. Your presence will only upset her more."Regina had no choice. As she was about to leave, she couldn't help but glance at the doctor, Lena, who was pushing a wheelchair behind her son. She knew this woman was her son's doctor. But every time she came, she seemed very close to her son. She felt a little uncomfortable, but knowing that her son still needed medical attention from others, she didn't say anything and left.Looking at Regina's departing figure, Lena couldn't help but comment, "Why does your mother look so grim, like someone owes her money?"Anthony's face darkened as he looked up at Lena. "Is that how you talk to your elders?"Lena met the man's gaze. "I was just ma
Margot lost herself again, buried her head and banged it against the headboard. Anthony gestured to Lena and said, "Hold her."Lena hastily held Margot, preventing her from hurting herself. As tears filled her eyes, Lena comforted her, "Margot, please don't do this. Even without Curtis and Lilac, you still have us."Margot, being held, shook all over and mumbled in a daze, "I killed my daughter. I killed Curtis. It's all my fault. If I die, they will come back. Lena, let me go. I'll go to the underworld and bring Lilac back. She's only three years old. How can she leave this world before me? Let me go."Seeing Margot struggling violently, Lena looked at Anthony. "You must think of something."Anthony looked at Margot in that state and felt terrible. But what could he do? Every time she woke up from a faint, she behaved like this. The only solution, albeit one that would ease her suffering, was...No! He couldn't do it.Just then Natalie came in. When Margot saw her, she rushed ov
It was just too hard.Over the next few days, even when Margot woke up, she was always in a daze. Tears constantly filled her swollen eyes and she was never fully conscious. Half a month after Curtis and Lilac left, Margot fell completely ill. She couldn't eat or drink, and lay on the bed as pale as paper, barely clinging to life thanks to the nutrient solution that sustained her fragile existence. A month after Curtis and Lilac left, Margot was in a coma for a week and never woke up.Many people came to visit her in the ward every day, including Royce, Zyla, and especially Calvin and Natalie. Seeing Margot unconscious every day, they were really afraid that she would leave this world like Lilac.In fact, during the week that Margot was in a coma, Anthony had already begun to hypnotize her. He knew that what he was doing was cruel, but in order to save Margot's life, he could only hypnotize her and make her forget that Curtis and Lilac had ever appeared in her life.When the
Anthony was extremely unwilling to cruelly erase Curtis and Lilac from Margot's mind. But Margot's condition was simply too bad. In order for her to have a better future and not suffer the pain of Curtis and Lilac anymore, and to safely give birth to the child, he had to make her forget the past. In addition, his mother had previously asked him to make Margot forget what had happened in Emeria. In order to reunite their family sooner, Anthony agreed. So this time, the hypnosis would not only make Margot forget Curtis and Lilac, but everyone else as well. After making sure the hypnosis was complete, Anthony signaled to Lena. "Let her wake up and see. If it doesn't work, we'll think of something else."Natalie asked from the side, "If Margot is pregnant, can we not hypnotize her? If she knows she's pregnant with Curtis' child, maybe she'll pull herself together for the sake of the child? Even if you hypnotize her and she wakes up with no memory, how do we explain whose child i
Lena took the silver needle and asked everyone before she began, "Have you all planned the new life path for Margot? I'll wake her up soon after I start. If your stories don't match, it will be hard to handle."Calvin said, "We'll go with what Royce said. I'll talk to Mr. and Mrs. Crosby when I get back."Lena nodded and began stabbing Margot in the head. Natalie stood beside her and watched anxiously. Maybe the only way to make Margot forget Curtis and Lilac was to make her feel better. She hoped that Curtis in heaven would bless her to give birth safely and that the child would return to the Crosby family in the future.After two hours of Lena's acupuncture, Margot groggily opened her eyes. What she saw was the white ceiling, just like her mind, which was blank and unable to remember anything.Natalie rushed over and asked, "Margot, are you uncomfortable anywhere?"Royce, leaning over Calvin, also stood by the bed and asked worriedly, "Are you feeling better, Margot? Is your hea
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
