Chapter 71

Author: Miles of Scenery
Curtis didn't know what had happened to Margot. Upon learning that she was in the hospital, he rushed there urgently.

When he arrived at the hospital and headed toward Margot's hospital room, Curtis saw two men engaged in a heated argument near the ward.

One of them caught his attention.

It was Royce, who had been at the Crosby residence some time ago.

External conflicts didn't pique Curtis' interest. After all, something had happened to Margot, and that took precedence.

He needed to find out what had happened to her.

As he was about to move forward, the ongoing conversation between the two men halted him in his tracks.

Anthony was bleeding from his mouth and nose but persisted in asking, "Tell me, is the child in Margot's belly yours?"

Royce grabbed Anthony's collar. Royce angrily confessed, "Yes, she's carrying my child. That's why I can never get along with the Morris family for the rest of my life."

Anthony pushed Royce away. He wiped the blood from his lip and coldly

    "Why?" Curtis couldn't comprehend it.He had treated Margot well, providing her with the best of everything. Apart from the Tammy incident, he couldn't understand where he had gone wrong.To add to the confusion, Margot claimed not to know Royce. Yet, not only did she know him, but they even had a child together. Curtis felt like he was being deceived.How could they act so recklessly right under his nose?Unable to bear the humiliation, Curtis clenched his fist. He forcefully slammed it against the nearby wall. A loud bang echoed, and the entire hospital building seemed to tremble. Blood oozed from his knuckles and dripped onto the floor.His face was dark and twisted. He stood there, his eyes filled with bloodthirsty cruelty. He regretted not killing Royce just now. After a moment of suppressing the raging emotions within him, Curtis finally opened Margot's ward door.At that moment, Margot lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. Sensing someone enter, she loo

    After listening to Curtis' words, Margot was left in a state of shock. It was almost unbelievable that he harbored suspicions about the child being Royce's. And he even suspected that she had taken medication to induce an abortion?She refused to accept this apparent injustice. Summoning strength from her frail body, she propped herself up, sat upright, and faced the man standing by the bed. "No, Curt, you've misunderstood. Last night, I—""Misunderstood you?" Curtis interrupted her, his face contorted with pain. Gritting his teeth, he pressed on, "Didn't I ask you before if you knew Royce, and how did you respond?"Margot was rendered speechless.He was visibly anguished. He gritted his teeth and questioned again, "Margot, I'll ask you again. Do you know Royce?"Confronted by Curtis' relentless questioning, Margot couldn't bring herself to lie again. With guilt weighing on her, she opened her mouth. "I know him, but—""Why did you deny knowing him earlier, then?" he inte

    Unable to accept this betrayal, Curtis' facial expressions abruptly changed, revealing a mix of anger and pain. No one in the world dared to treat him like this. If Margot dared to challenge his bottom line so recklessly, she shouldn't blame him for being heartless.At the hospital, Margot had been lying on the bed for three full days. Her body was finally showing signs of improvement.As the nurse approached to administer the drip again, Margot couldn't help but ask, "When can I be discharged?"Glancing at Margot, the nurse replied, "You'll have to ask Mr. Crosby. As long as he hasn't given the order, you can't leave."Speechless, Margot pondered her situation. Curtis hadn't answered her calls or messages since the first day, and he hadn't visited her again. In her fragile state, having just experienced a miscarriage while carrying his child, she needed care and support. However, the person she needed the most seemed determined to ignore her.Why was fate so relentlessl

    Margot followed Doris back to the Royal Villa.Since Curtis wasn't around, Margot returned to her room. She took a shower, changed clothes, savored the nutritious meal Doris had prepared, and settled on the living room couch.With her phone in hand, she persistently messaged him, but to no avail. All calls and messages went unanswered. A wave of sadness engulfed her. She stayed in the living room and waited for his return.By ten in the evening, Doris approached her. "Ms. Stone, you've just had a miscarriage, and your body needs rest. Head back to your room and get some sleep."Margot declined, stating, "I want to wait for Curt to come back.""We don't know if he'll return. It's been two days," Doris explained."He will come back," Margot insisted. Without clarification, she couldn't clear her name, causing unrest that permeated her sleep and disrupted her meals.Curtis had treated her kindly. How could she betray him? The joy of her pregnancy with his child made it unthin

    Margot hastily opened her mouth to explain, "I didn't betray you. The child I'm carrying is also yours. I never intended to abort the baby. It was that night...""Shut up." Curtis turned around, glaring at her with bloodshot eyes. "Come, follow me. I'll show you something." He roughly grabbed her small hand, dragging her toward the study.Caught off guard, she almost fell. However, due to her wrist being pulled, she had to follow him.In the study, Curtis rudely flung Margot down. He took a stack of photos from the desk and threw them in front of her, saying sharply, "Margot, open your eyes and look carefully. Where have I treated you unfairly? "If I didn't investigate, I didn't even know that you were so desperate to run away with him."He remarked, "You truly are an amazing partner, the one I've chosen. You managed to influence even someone like me, someone accustomed to navigating the complexities of the business world. "You've got some serious skills."Margot was spe

    Margot halted abruptly, starting without turning back. "You don't trust me, so I need to find evidence to prove my innocence."Curtis found it quite amusing. He walked up and stood in front of her, peering down. "Innocent? Which of the things I just mentioned was unfair to you?"She met his gaze and retorted defiantly, "All of your words are unjust to me.""Margot, you can argue all you want, but no matter how you argue, I won't believe your nonsense anymore. "Listen to me. From now on, you stay here, and you're not allowed to go anywhere. Even if it's death, you can only die here."Through clenched teeth, he uttered each word, radiating an icy presence as if he could consume her whole. Despite his intense demeanor, she was determined to depart, but an exit seemed nonexistent.Margot, in her life, would never escape him. Not wanting to see her pitiful face again, Curtis turned and left.She stood there, watching him walk away. Her expression was dazed, and her mind was bl

    Curtis looked at Tammy and said in a gentle tone, "From now on, this is your home. You can stay as long as you like, and you can ask others for anything you want. Just do whatever you want."Tammy smiled faintly as she took a seat beside Curtis. "Really?""Of course. After all, you will eventually be my wife. Anything that belongs to me will eventually be yours, too."Margot couldn't stand it anymore. She closed the book in her hand and stood up to leave.Curtis cast a cold glance at her and bellowed, "Stop right there!"Margot stopped in her tracks but couldn't bring herself to look at them.Curtis lazily instructed, "Go and make me a sandwich. I'm hungry."This was the first time he had ordered Margot to cook for him.Margot refused to do so, tears welling up as she walked upstairs.Curtis sat up and started shouting at her, "Margot, did you not hear me? I told you to make me a sandwich!"Margot ignored him and continued to walk away.Seeing that she was still defiant, Cur

    Margot, who had been thrown onto the bed, felt her heart shatter into pieces.She slowly sat up, tears welling in her eyes as she gazed at the man before her."How do you want me to pay you back? Do you want my life? If you want it, I can give it to you!"She'd rather give him her life than endure his vicious torments.Since her miscarriage, he hadn't shown her an ounce of care. Instead, he reveled in tormenting and humiliating her.Was this some sort of entertainment to him?If you hate someone, you should just get rid of them!Why would you do this to them?Margot felt like she couldn't hold on any longer. If the man really wanted her dead, she would do as he wished."Is your life even worth that much?"Curtis glared at her with an icy gaze. "From now on, you'll work by my side to repay me. If you dare disobey me, I'll …"He was suddenly at a loss for words.He knew very well that if a powerless woman like her didn't obey him, he couldn't really do anything about it.How

    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

    "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
