The three men looked up simultaneously when they heard the sound.When they saw Margot standing by the railing on the second floor, they suddenly realized that they messed up.Calvin glanced at Curtis, "Why didn't you tell me Margot was home?"He thought his sister was next door with Natalie.Now, she heard that conversation.Calvin smiled and replied, "It's nothing. Why haven't you gone to rest?"Margot noticed the three of them acting suspiciously, so she walked downstairs.Arriving in the living room, she stood in front of the three men and eyed them closely."Are you hiding something from me?""Who would hide anything from you?" Gabriel laughed as well.Only Curtis, who was seated in the middle, looked like he didn’t know how to explain.If he spoke, Margot would be upset.If he didn’t speak, Margot would definitely become suspicious.So, should he speak or not?Margot met Curtis' gaze and suggested, "You tell me, who is your Lilac? Where did she go that you need to b
"I deceived you from the very beginning. During the year you were pregnant, I never went abroad. Everyone knows we were once married, but they all kept it from you."Upon hearing this, Margot was almost unable to sit still.Her anger quickly rose.Curtis hurriedly grasped her hand and continued, "You forgot the past because Anthony hypnotized you on purpose. It's because we have a daughter together; she went missing, and you couldn't accept it. "You cried every day, wouldn't eat or drink. Seeing you wasting away and bedridden, they had no choice but to make you forget her. I left for over a year to search for her whereabouts."Margot, Lilac is our daughter. If she hadn't gone missing, she'd be as big as Sabrina by now. That's why I was hesitant about you taking Sabrina as your goddaughter."At this point, Curtis felt like something was stuck in her throat.His daughter was a thorn in his heart; every mention of her felt like a boulder pressing down on him, making it hard to br
Margot woke up the next morning.When she opened her eyes, she saw a group of people standing by her bed.There were Curtis, Gabriel, Calvin, Anthony, Natalie, Benjamin, Sabrina, and a nanny holding Louis.Everyone stared at her with a serious expression.Seeing she had awakened, they all came closer with concern, "Are you alright, Margot?"With Curtis' help, Margot slowly sat up and leaned against the headboard, and looked at the surrounding people.She couldn't believe they had all deceived her, hiding the fact that her daughter was missing.Did they really think this was for her own good?Even though she still couldn't remember anything from before, learning that she had a daughter who was now missing, she felt a pain so deep it was unbearable."Everyone leave, I don't want to see anyone right now."They were all liars for helping Curtis keep it from her, treating her like a fool.She wondered why everyone knew about Curtis except for her.It turned out she and Curtis we
A group of people downstairs heard the crying so they rushed upstairs again.When they saw Margot kneeling on the ground as she held Sabrina and cried, they knew she had mistaken Sabrina for Lilac. Everyone standing nearby felt so uncomfortable that they didn't know what to say.They knew for sure that if Margot found out about Lilac, it would be very hard for her to accept.She hadn't even remembered the past yet, but just knowing that her daughter was missing already upset her so much.If she remembered the past, it was likely she'd feel even more upset and guilty.Curtis, with reddened eyes, once again stepped forward to separate Margot and Sabrina."Margot, stop. She's really not Lilac."Margot was in a state of confusion and mistook Sabrina for her dear one.She lost her composure and clung to Sabrina as she refused to let go."This is Lilac, it's her."She cried as she pushed Curtis's hand away, refusing to let him separate her from the child in her arms.At this momen
"It will be alright, everything will be alright."Curtis lowered his head to hide the sorrow on his face and met Gabriel's gaze."Well, at least I know Lilac is not dead; she is still alive in this world. I will give everything I have to find her and bring her back to Margot.""I support you." Gabriel's voice had become hoarse.When he thought about the daughter he once lost, and how his ex-wife now chose Calvin while taking Benjamin with her, he felt he had no right to feel sorry for Curtis.He was already pitiful enough himself; how could Curtis possibly compare to him?It was really impossible to stay any longer. Seeing Natalie standing side by side with Calvin, Gabriel felt a deep sense of discomfort and said, "I'll head back first. Call me if anything comes up."Curtis said, "Let's go, I'll drop you off."In the room, Natalie’s gaze followed Gabriel as he walked away.She found Gabriel to be very strange and unusually quiet lately.He was not as shameless and clingy as b
Sometimes, Anthony felt like punching Curtis.He made great efforts to help Margot forget the pain and live carefreely.However, Curtis did the opposite; he just had to mention Lilac in front of Margot.If Margot's condition didn't improve this time, Anthony believed there was no point in keeping Curtis by Margot's side.Apart from causing her pain, what else could Curtis offer to Margot?He truly despised Curtis."Why don't you all go ahead and leave first? I'll stay here with Margot," Natalie suggested.It was best not to have too many people around Margot right now, as it could easily affect her mood.Calvin understood and brought Benjamin over from the side."Benjamin, let's go."Benjamin nodded, then quietly lowered his head and left.Anthony looked at Natalie and reminded him, "Remember to let me know if anything comes up.""Okay."......Curtis had just sent Gabriel off and walked into the living room, where he saw Anthony and Calvin coming downstairs while holding
After confirming that everything was fine, he took Louis from the nanny's arms and carried him into the room.Curtis gently called out when he saw Natalie was still there. "You go ahead and take care of your things, I'll stay and keep Margot company."Natalie stood up, moved closer to him, and whispered, "But she isn't in good shape. Can you handle it on your own?"Curtis looked at Margot on the bed, who was holding Sabrina and softly humming a lullaby to put her to sleep, and felt a heart-wrenching pain.He adjusted his emotions and nodded. "Yes.""Alright, remember to call me if anything comes up."Knowing that Margot shouldn't be surrounded by too many people, Natalie thought it would be best for her to leave, especially with Curtis around.She looked at Margot with a heavy heart, who seemed dazed, and turned to leave.Curtis sat down at the bedside while holding Louis, and tried to soothe Margot, who was still hugging Sabrina tightly."Margot, look, Louis really needs you.
Curtis didn't expect Branden to pick Sabrina up so quickly.In the past, he would have been eager for Branden to take Sabrina home.But what would happen to Margot if Sabrina left now?Curtis sat down beside him and said in a serious tone, "Aren't you quite busy? Margot usually has nothing to do, so why not let Sabrina stay with us? We can arrange for a nearby kindergarten, and Margot can take care of her daily drop-offs and pick-ups."Branden looked at Curtis, chuckled lightly, and said, "Are you hinting that you can't bear to see me take my daughter away?""My wife likes her very much and doesn't want her to leave."Curtis was making a determined effort.Even though he didn't like the child's father, for Margot's sake, he had no choice.Branden leaned against the sofa, his long legs casually crossed while he watched Curtis with a playful smile."She's my daughter, after all. I can't just leave her here forever, can I? I have to take her home eventually."When Curtis noticed
