Curtis noticed that she seemed a bit reluctant to face reality, so he decided to be straightforward."Sabrina's father is here to pick her up. Should we let her go with him?"Margot remained silent.Branden's father?Sabrina...In a daze, Margot snapped back to reality and swiftly grabbed Curtis."So you're saying the person inside isn't Lilac? She's Sabrina, not my daughter?"Curtis was worried that she might get too emotional, so he quickly raised his hand to hold onto her arms and nodded in agreement."Yeah. She's not Lilac.""How can it be? But I feel like she is Lilac. Curtis, are you sure she's not her?"Curtis tightly embraced her."MArgot, she's really not Lilac. We haven't found Lilac yet, but I've already sent people to search in many places. Once we find her, we'll bring her back."Hearing Curtis's confirmation once again, Margot finally came to terms with reality.She clearly remembered that Sabrina was Branden's daughter.She felt bad for Sabrina, so she took
After Sabrina and Branden left, Curtis quickly went upstairs.When he arrived at the door, he saw the nanny holding Louis. "I told you to stay with her, didn't I?"The nanny said, "She mentioned she wanted some time alone to calm down, so she asked me to take the baby out. So, here I am."Curtis still couldn't stop worrying about Margot, so he asked the nanny to leave first as he walked into the room.Lying on her side, Margot was curled up in bed and biting her fingers tightly as she tried hard to recall every little detail about her daughter.But she couldn't remember anything.If she didn't look at the photo Curtis gave her, she wouldn't even know what her daughter looked like.She felt that she was not worthy of being a mother.She was crying because she was worried her daughter would suffer while being away.Curtis walked to the bedside and saw Margot's body trembling. Feeling distressed, he reached out to touch her and gently comforted her."Don't be sad, Lilac will com
She didn't want to blame anyone either.Nobody wanted Lilac to go missing; she just prayed that her daughter was doing well out there.She prayed to be able to see her daughter again in this lifetime.At that moment, someone suddenly appeared at the doorway.Natalie did not expect Regina to be there. As soon as she walked into the room, she called out, "Margot!"After shouting, she noticed Regina. She then nodded politely and greeted her. "Mrs. Morris."Regina glanced at Natalie, sizing her up. With her daughter present, she responded coldly with a nod.But her gaze still didn't move away from Natalie.She thought, "Actually, she looks quite good. Kind of gorgeous, to be honest."Earlier, she learned that Calvin liked her, so she specifically sent someone to inquire about her family background.Natalie's family background was quite good. Her parents were highly respected artists in CAmberville, and she had another sibling.Unfortunately, she divorced and had a child.How co
Margot didn't expect her mother to give in.She even went so far as to suggest that Calvin and Natalie enter into a sham marriage.Margot truly surprised at how quickly Regina changed. She asked, Are you sure you want me to set them up like that? You don't mind that Natalie already has a ten-year-old son and she was married?"Regina sighed and said, "You have no idea that I've had people tracking Calvin these past few days. The disgraceful things he does every day with Gabriel are just shameful. Before the family and your dad find out about his situation with that man, I need to take action."As for what kind of woman marries him, that's no longer important. As long as you can convince Calvin to marry her, that's enough."Margot was speechless.After all this time, Regina was still sending people to keep an eye on Calvin.No wonder Calvin hadn't been seen with Natalie much lately.After thinking for a moment, Margot pretended and said, "I can have a conversation with them, but
"You're five weeks into your pregnancy. Since your health isn't the best, you must watch out for …"Margot Stone didn't hear what the doctor said afterward. All she heard was that she was pregnant.She was pregnant …She couldn't believe she was having his baby.Didn't this mean that their contract marriage would now turn into a real one?Margot was over the moon. She remembered that he was returning from his business trip tonight, so she grabbed her pregnancy report and dashed home excitedly.As the sun set and the sky began drizzling, Margot returned home completely drenched.As soon as she entered the house, her housekeeper, Doris, rushed over with a towel to dry off Margot's hair."Oh, look at you! You'll catch a cold at this rate! Hurry upstairs and take a warm bath."Still, Margot kept beaming from ear to ear.She bent over to change her shoes. That was when she saw a pair of well-polished leather shoes on top of the shoe cabinet.Pleasantly surprised, Margot spun arou
Margot knew Curtis had given her a lot, and she shouldn't cling to him.However, she was pregnant with his child, so she must think for her child as well."Are you trying to start a fight, Margot?" Curtis' scowl deepened.Standing beside the bed, he looked down at Margot but didn't explain why he was marrying the other woman.Margot didn't want to anger him, but she couldn't help but feel sorry for herself.Working hard to keep her emotions in check, she replied, "I just want to know if you'll stop talking to that woman if I have a baby with you."She was giving him a chance.Curtis pressed his lips together, displeased. Without hesitation, he said, "We will still be getting divorced, just not now. Don't worry. You can have anything you want when we get divorced."Hearing this, Margot shut her eyes as hot tears rolled down her cheeks.Her heart throbbing, she threw herself across the bed, unable to stop her cries any longer.Curtis watched her sob, and his heart began to ache
Margot clung to Curtis as she kissed him passionately and resentfully.No normal man would be able to resist such temptation, including Curtis. He wrapped his arm around her and began kissing her back.He tossed the divorce papers into the table drawer with his other hand before lifting Margot. They slowly made their way upstairs, their kiss never stopping.The journey was easy due to how light Margo was.It was only when he placed her on their bed that Margot realized she shouldn't be doing this in case their actions might hurt her baby.So, when Curtis leaned closer to her, she quickly pressed a hand against his chest.Curtis, having lost all reason, was insistent on kissing her.Margot knew what the kiss would lead to, so she frantically stopped the man. "Stop! I'm not feeling too well, so why don't we stop here?""Too late," Curtis groaned hoarsely. He was about to carry on, but Margot hurriedly pushed him away and curled into a ball at one end of the bed.Curtis was confu
Margot was puzzled. Who could it be?Curiously, she headed toward the campus gates where she was greeted by a middle-aged man.The man greeted her politely, "This way, please, Ms. Stone."Margot followed the man to a car waiting by the roadside. The man opened the door, and Margot spotted a well-dressed lady sitting inside.Margot didn't know who the woman was, so she remained standing and on guard.The woman in the car said, "Come in. I'll take you out to lunch."Margot didn't respond, so the other woman continued, "I'm Tammy Vaughn. I don't know if Curt has ever mentioned me."Tammy …Margot recalled seeing this name on Curtis' phone and realized this was the woman he was going to marry.Immediately, Margot was filled with animosity against the woman. She snapped, "What are you here for?"From her seat, Tammy regarded Margot patronizingly. "I just wanted to chat about Curt. Why? Are you afraid of me?""Afraid of you, a shameless mistress?"There was no way Margot was scar
