Seeing that it was Calvin calling, Natalie got up and went to the side to answer the call. After finishing the call, Natalie walked toward Margot, who was not far away and with two children."Margot, you take Benjamin and Sabrina and go back with Calvin first, I have some things to handle."Margot asked, "Is he coming to pick us up?""Yes."Glancing at the time, Natalie then patted Sabrina's head. "It's getting late, you guys should go back.""Okay."Just then, Calvin's car stopped not far away. Natalie and Margot each held a child's hand as they walked toward him.Natalie passed the children to him and said, "Can you please take them home and cook something nice for them?"Calvin frowned and was somewhat unhappy. "Why are you asking so formally?"Natalie smiled. "Not at all. Just bring them home and take good care of them."Calvin was finally satisfied. He gently pinched Natalie's waist and leaned against her while watching Margot lead the children into the car. He asked s
Benjamin hesitated.Reluctantly, he allowed Calvin to lead him to sit next to Gabriel.Gabriel immediately handed over a limited edition figurine to his son in an attempt to please him. "I had someone bring this from abroad. You should like it, right?"Benjamin glanced at it. He clearly liked it, but pretended to be too proud to accept it.Calvin took it for him, saying, "Quick, thank your dad."Benjamin remained silent as he sulked with a sullen face while ignoring everyone.Margot and Sabrina quietly continued eating their meal as they silently watched.Although son was still ignoring him, Gabriel wasn't discouraged. He casually picked up a nearby Barbie doll and handed it to Sabrina. "You must be Sabrina. Here, this is a gift from me."Sabrina's eyes lit up upon seeing she also had a gift. She immediately jumped off her chair and ran to accept it.Hugging the gift to her chest, she sweetly said, "Thank you.""You're welcome.""Who told you to buy her that?"Benjamin go
Upon hearing the voice, the old man slowly lifted his head.Seeing it was Curtis, he stood up without haste. His back was still bent, and he smiled. "It's you, young man."When Curtis saw the old man could recognize him, Curtis eagerly shook his hand and said, "Can we speak privately?"The old man smiled and declined. "I'm still selling food here. You can just say it here.""I'll buy all your food."Curtis took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it to the old man. "There's a lot of money in here, enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life. Consider it a reward for saving me back then. But I have a favor to ask. Can we find a place to sit and talk?"The old man sighed and waved his hand to reject Curtis' bank card. "No need for money; I was merely looking after you for someone else. The person who truly saved you is someone else."The old man sat back down and continued to tend to his food. Curtis was in disbelief, and squatted down. "What? Someone els
He took two steps back and bowed three times to the old man.This was to express his gratitude.After the bows, he didn't utter another word before turning and leaving.On his way back to Amberville, he was thinking that the miracle doctor in the mountains might be the same person who saved him.But that person wasn't the old man.So, he had one last hope - Lena.As the disciple of the miracle doctor, Lena should know something.The first thing Curtis did upon returning to Amberville was to go to the etiquette academy to find Lena.Since Lena couldn't leave the school, Curtis went inside to find her.They met in the school's garden.When Lena saw Curtis, she looked him over and asked with concern, "Your health should be fine now, right?"She remembered he had a heart condition. Previously, he had an incident before finishing his medication. Now, seeing him with good complexion and no relapse, she thought he should be fine."Yeah, I'm fine now. Do you know why I'm looking fo
"If you don't have anything else, I'm going to class now." Lena glanced at the time; it was already late.Curtis realized he couldn't get more information, so he let her go about her business.He left the school alone, got in the car, and headed to find Margot.On the way, he thought about how their daughter could return to them after more than ten years. It was better than her leaving this world entirely, which made Curtis feel significantly better.At least he felt less guilt and remorse than before.On his way back home, he even made a special stop at the flower shop to choose a fresh bouquet of sunflowers. He also picked a small bouquet for the child by Margot's side.In the afternoon, Margot was at the Vaughn Mansion. She was rehearsing with two children.The nanny was holding Louis and watching from the side.Sabrina was trying very hard to act, but Benjamin wasn’t cooperating and kept a sullen face.Margot was at her wit’s end, and she had to persuade him, "Benjamin,
Suddenly, he remembered what the old man had told him. "As long as you keep her in your heart, she will come back to you one day." The presence of this little girl doesn't matter. Since Margot liked her, he would treat her well from now on."You're welcome." He smiled gently at the child and then looked at Margot. "You've had a tough time these past few days.""It's not tough. I'm just glad you're back. You won't be going on business trips anymore, right?"Margot linked arms with him, and her eyes formed crescents as she smiled.He patted her hand and promised. "No more trips. I'll stay with you and the child every day from now on.""You said it. If you don't keep your promise, I'm going back to my parents' house." Her playful threat made him habitually pinch her cheek."Don't worry, if you go back, I'll go with you.""Wow... Mommy and Daddy have such a good relationship. I'm so jealous," the little girl said while clutching a bouquet of flowers, looking starstruck.Margot le
Anthony was confused about what his mother meant.Impatiently, he said, "Mom, if you have something to say, just say it."Regina didn't beat around the bush and just sent him photos of Lena with Curtis."See for yourself. I'd really like to know why Lena is seeing Curtis alone. Do they have any connection?"Listening to his mother's words while opening the photos, Anthony saw that the people in the photos were indeed Lena and Curtis, but he didn't think much of it.Then he answered on the phone, "Of course they have connections. Curtis and Calvin initially went to the countryside to find Lena's master. This time, Curtis might just be consulting her about something."Hearing this, Regina was unhappy. "You trust that girl so much?""Why wouldn't I trust her? Mom, do you think she would have anything with Curtis? Would Curtis ignore Margot and come to compete with me for Lena?"Anthony understood his mother's intentions well. She was simply dissatisfied with Lena. As long as s
Anthony also had his suspicions, but he just wanted to confirm something.Who would have thought Lena would deliberately stall him and try to make him angry?Luckily, he was not someone who got angry easily.Once he got the result, Anthony softened his tone. "I know, after I finish my work, I'll come and take you out for some delicious food."Lena rolled on the bed, pouting as she asked, "Then let me ask you, do you have someone watching me?""No." He answered very straightforwardly and honestly, "But my mom might have someone keeping an eye on you.""So, your mother told you about Curtis meeting me?""Hmm.""Your mother doesn't trust me at all. I was wondering, even if I pass the assessment, she won't let me be with you, right?"Anthony reassured her. "No, don't overthink it."Even though his mother sent Lena to the etiquette academy just to find various reasons to stop them from being together, because of the past's lessons, he would not go along with his mother's wishes.
