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
Calvin was very happy and excited.Calvin stood up and moved close to Gabriel, losing his composure as he grabbed him in a hug and gave him a few hard punches on his back.Gabriel found this person weird.He quickly pushed him away and said angrily, "What's wrong with you? I've told you so many times not to touch me."Calvin chuckled and stepped back while waving his hand in apology."Sorry, I got a bit carried away."But he couldn't help but hold Gabriel's hand."Mr. Sawyer, I really appreciate everything you've done these past few days. Without your help, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve what I wanted. I will always remember your kindness."Gabriel shook off his hand with disdain and asked, "What's going on?"Calvin smiled and said, "My mom agreed to let me marry Natalie."Upon hearing these words, Gabriel felt a sharp pain in his chest.He gave Calvin a cold stare. He was clearly affected, yet pridefully blurted out a blessing. "Congratulations, Mr. Morris."That ton
Margot sat on the bed and put away her phone. She was once again overwhelmed with deep sorrow as she thought about her daughter.Curtis walked in carrying some food.He sat by the bed and reached out to take her hand. "Margot, what did your Mom say to you?"Margot snapped back to reality and told the truth,"Mom approved of Calvin being with Natalie."Curtis was quite surprised. "This is a good thing!""Yeah, I think it's great. Calvin has finally gotten what he wants."The only question was whether Natalie wanted to get married.Dating and getting married were two completely different things."Calvin is really something. Once he gets past your Mom, there won't be any obstacles between him and Natalie."Margot nodded. "My Dad usually listens to my Mom, so it should be fine."She lowered her head, but there was still sorrow evident on her face.Curtis noticed her sadness and pulled her into an embrace."Aren't you supposed to be happy for them? Why are you feeling sad?"Ma
She wouldn't feel at ease unless she came to check once.Since they hadn't found Lilac's grave yet, she could still hold onto a bit of hope in her heart.She hoped that one day her daughter would truly be able to return to her side."I am sorry!" Curtis held her tightly. "We did deceive you, but that was only because you refused to pull yourself together. We were afraid something might happen to you, so we did that."Margot understood their good intentions.So she couldn't get discouraged, and she definitely couldn't give up.She needed to stay alert and constantly think about her daughter, because what if one day her daughter came back and she didn't recognize her?Taking a deep breath, Margot slowly pulled away from Curtis' embrace, and looked at him with teary eyes."I'll pull myself together from now on and won't let you worry about me anymore. Let's go back.""Alright, I'll go pay my respects to Grandpa."Curtis walked to Martin's grave and paid his respect before taking
Natalie never would have thought that the stereotypically stoic man would actually propose to her.Why was he so sudden? Wasn't he afraid that she might reject him?At this moment, looking at the elegant and beautiful ring Calvin was holding up, to be honest, she didn't dare to accept it.She once considered loving him wholeheartedly and being with him.But she never dared to dream of one day becoming his lawful wife.No one knew better than her what kind of family the Morris' are.Given her situation, would she receive support from his parents if she married him while bringing along her son?Clearly not.So, she hesitated.She thought about how to kindly turn him down without hurting his feelings.Calvin felt a bit of tension in his heart when he saw Natalie not responding.However, he wasn't afraid and looked toward the stairs.Natalie also looked over.Benjamin came down the stairs dressed in a gentlemanly suit.He walked directly over to Calvin and his mother. Benjami
Natalie felt helpless as she looked at the well-dressed man across from her.Calvin looked at her, his eyes full of tenderness."He did it on purpose. It's fine, we'll pick him up later.""Okay."Natalie smiled and nodded. She raised her glass of red wine and clinked it with Calvin's glass across from her. "Mr. Morris, tell me, how did you manage to win over Benjamin?"If her son hadn't said those things afterward, she might have refused.It was her son who gave her the courage to take the final step bravely.Calvin smiled gently and teased her."If you come over and give me a kiss, I'll tell you."Natalie's cheeks turned red. She quickly buried her head in her food, pretending she hadn't asked anything.Calvin stood up and approached her.He sat down next to her, watched as Natalie ate with her head down, and couldn't help but laugh."Honey, are you shy?"The word "honey" made Natalie get goosebumps all over.She looked up at him, her cheeks blushing red."Calvin, you a
Benjamin nodded.Curtis looked at Margot and said, "Wait for me. I'll be back after I put him to sleep.""Go ahead."Margot took her son from the nanny's arms, and the more she thought about it, the happier she felt for Natalie and Calvin.Now that the proposal was successful, they could start planning the wedding.This was great.Margot suddenly thought of something, and dialed her mother's number.Regina picked up the phone, and she said, "Mom, are you asleep?"Regina sighed and said, "How could I sleep? Today, your Dad mentioned Calvin again. He said he had arranged a marriage for him and that he should hurry back to Emeria to meet the bride."Margot immediately asked, "Didn't you tell Dad that Calvin has a partner?""Partner? You mean Gabriel? Can I even say that to your Dad? He will surely give your brother a hard time.""Ahem, I know, I had a good talk with Calvin today, and he promised me."Regina was a bit surprised. "What did you say? He agreed to it? How did you t
