Lena took the phone angrily and said, "You two brothers are really something. You knew Margot was being discharged today and that Natalie had made a lot of Margot's favorite food at home."What happened? You two didn't show up, and you let your parents take Margot away."Margot was supposed to live with us. Now that your parents have taken her away, won't it be difficult for us to see Margot again in the future?"After listening to Lena's words, Calvin looked at Anthony suspiciously, but Anthony also seemed puzzled.Calvin replied to Lena, "We didn't know about this.""You're pretending. Aren't you in cahoots with that guy, Royce? It was he who personally took Margot from us and put her in your parents' car."He even said that our place is too small to accommodate your family. It's obvious that they're looking down on us."Lena got angry when she mentioned this. They knew that after hypnotizing Margot, whatever happened next would be uncontrollable.Now, Margot couldn't even re
Zyla was not unhappy about that and looked at Royce with resentment."You are supposed to be my fiancé."Royce looked at her coldly."I am the fiancé of the Morris family's princess. But are you that princess? You're nothing but a foster child who has taken someone else's place. Do you think you're worthy of marrying me?"Not wanting to waste time with this person, Royce left with only these few sentences.Zyla stood there, fists clenched, full of resentment.…Soon, Calvin and Anthony also rushed back.When Zyla saw the two of them, she quickly changed her demeanor, calling out in a pitiful tone, "Calvin, Anthony, you're back."Calvin asked coldly, "Is Margot home?"Zyla's heart sank. Although she didn't want to hear that name at all, she pretended to be casual and said, "Yes, Mom and Dad just brought her back.""I'll go take a look."Calvin didn't spare Zyla another glance and walked into the house.Anthony was slower because of his wheelchair. When he passed Zyla, he ju
Calvin didn't expect that his parents would still want to interfere in his marriage when he was over 30 and still unmarried.He hadn't even gotten together with Natalie yet, but they were already meddling. If they really got together, his parents would surely torture Natalie into the same state as before.Standing there without changing his expression, Calvin coldly told his parents word by word, "Mom, Dad, you're worrying too much. Ms. Nelson isn't interested in me."Also, I'm over 30 and haven't been in a relationship yet. Don't you ever wonder about that?"Stop involving innocent people. I'll be straightforward with you—I like men. Your son can't touch women. In the future, if I marry someone, will you be satisfied with a son-in-law?"Displeased with his parents' actions, Calvin deliberately provoked them as revenge.As expected, they turned pale upon hearing this and couldn't sit still."What did you say?""Isn't what I said clear enough? In the future, if I marry someone,
Royce replied, "They drove themselves. I told them to follow me, but they turned back halfway.""Oh." Margot's response was filled with disappointment.Then she asked Royce, suddenly recalling something, "When did we get married? Do we have a marriage certificate? Can I see it?"Although Royce was quite handsome, she didn't feel any affection for him when she looked at him or spent time with him.She couldn't even remember any moments they had shared. She just wanted to see the marriage certificate. And, if she was really his wife, then she would fulfill her wifely duties.Royce's expression changed, his gaze flickering. "We… haven't gotten married yet. We're just engaged.""What? So, did I have your child without being married?"Margot was somewhat stunned. Was she such a frivolous person?Royce was afraid she would overthink it and quickly said, "But we do have an engagement. We just haven't obtained the certificate yet."Margot, don't think too much. If you want, we can go
Girls in love were prone to overthinking.As long as the other party made her feel a little uncomfortable, she would think they didn't like her anymore. So, she would use various methods to test the other party's tolerance toward her.Lena was a good example. Even though it wasn't a big problem, she hung up the phone in a huff and even said not to contact each other anymore.Anthony was somewhat helpless. But considering she was still only in her 20s and immature, he didn't need to worry too much. In order to placate her, he still dialed back.Despite being angry, Lena still answered when Anthony called back. With a displeased tone, she asked, "What?"Anthony's tone was full of indulgence. "Don't be angry. I'll come to see you tomorrow and take you to eat delicious food.""I won't go. You can do your own thing.""In that case, after we eat tomorrow, let's go watch a movie and then go to the amusement park."Lena was somewhat moved but still unwilling to compromise. "Don't think
Margot woke up early the next day.Yesterday, when she came back to this house, she was tired and didn't have the chance to explore outside. Now, she wanted to go outside to get some fresh air.Along the way, the household staff continuously greeted her with nods."Good morning, Ms. Stone."Margot nodded in response to all of them.Walking out of the magnificent hall, she took a stroll in the garden outside and realized how big this house was. It was so big that it even had a golf course, a lake, and a garden.In just one morning, she encountered dozens of household staff, indicating that their family was indeed wealthy."Why are you up so early, Margie?"Calvin brought over a coat and draped it over Margot's shoulders.Margot turned to look at him. "What does our family do? Why are we so rich?"Calvin said gently, "We're involved in basically everything.""What about me? What was my major in university, and what job did I do?"Calvin hesitated for a moment before truthfull
In Regal Enterprises in Amberville, a meeting was in progress in the conference room.Half an hour had passed, and seeing that the board of directors had not yet decided which plan to use, Margot had lost her patience."Since everyone has expressed their opinions, let me make the decision. I think this plan is the most reasonable and also the most popular among young people nowadays. Let's go with that."This plan will be led by Mr. Holt and his team. Does anyone have any objections?"All the directors' gazes turned to Calvin sitting beside Margot.Seeing Calvin's unchanged expression and silence, no one dared to voice any objections.Margot glanced at the time. It was getting late.She stood up and closed her laptop. "Since no one has any objections, the meeting is adjourned."The directors reluctantly got up and left.After everyone had left, Calvin finally looked at Margot and smiled. "Margie, you're becoming more and more imposing."Margot couldn't help but complain, "The
"And I know that even though Margot has given birth, you two have never been together."She doesn't like you. Even if she forgets the past and who you were, even if you two start over again, she still won't fall in love with you."Why hold onto a woman who will never love you? Why not let go and accept the one who loves you wholeheartedly?"Royce remained silent for a moment after hearing Zyla's words.Indeed. Until today, Margot had never accepted him, even though she had forgotten Curtis. There was no man beside her who could take her away from him, either.Even though they had been together day and night for a year, and he had been attentive to her every need, she had never even kissed him.Suddenly, he wondered if his persistence was worth it. Did it make sense?"Royce, I really love you. Please don't push me away anymore, okay?"Seeing that the man in front of her didn't push her away again, Zyla took advantage of the situation and moved closer to him.She stood on her to
