"If there's any problem, just let me know.""No problem, go ahead and finish up your work."Margot didn't even look up.While Louis was calm, she picked up her phone to contact Anthony.Margot: "Anthony, can I ask you something?"After waiting for about two minutes, Anthony finally responded.Anthony: "Sure, go ahead and ask."Margot: "Earlier, were you the one who hypnotized me to make me forget things from the past?"When she found out about her daughter's existence before, her mental state wasn't good. They told her they hypnotized her to forget about her daughter to prevent her from feeling sad.If one's memory could be hypnotized, then it should also be possible to reverse it, right?She was now truly eager to recall every little detail about her time with Curtis.Anthony: "Hm…"Margot: "I promise you, I will keep my emotions in check. Can you help me remember my past?"Anthony stared at the message sent by Margot. His fingers froze on top of the screen.Actually, if
It was such a pity that a child as beautiful as Margot suffered out there.Curtis originally intended to take Margot home.However, he realized that with so many people at home, it was inevitable that someone would bully her.So Curtis simply sent her to the orphanage and handed over his savings to the director, asking him to take care of her.At that time, the director asked him what the little girl's name was.Margot stared at him with her pair of bright eyes, as if she was reluctant to part with him.It was only then that Curtis realized he still didn't know the child's name.So he crouched down and gently asked, "What's your name, sweet girl?"At that time, Margot was in a state of complete panic and fear, and couldn't even remember her own name.Curtis saw that she didn't respond, so he raised his hand and gently touched her round little face. "How about I give you a name? From now on, you'll be Margot Avery Stone. Do you know why I want to name you Margot?"The five-yea
"Yes, I've thought it through. How about today?"Curtis couldn't contain his excitement. He held her head and gave her a kiss, then got up and carried Louis."Alright, let's go to the courthouse office now."In any case, they always carried their identification cards with them.Margot asked him with a smile, "Aren't you going to finish your work first?""Work isn't as important as you.""Alright."Margot took out her own identification from the bag on the coffee table and asked Curtis, "Where's yours?""In the car."So, within less than an hour of being in the office, the two of them quickly headed to the courthouse.Coincidentally, their car had just stopped in front of the courthouse when they spotted a familiar couple walking up the steps toward the building.Margot blurted out, "What a coincidence! Calvin and Natalie are also here to get their marriage certificates today."Curtis smiled. "It seems today is truly a good day."Margot and Curtis' decision was impulsive, b
The moment Calvin received the marriage certificates, he was so excited that he passionately kissed Natalie on the cheeks right in front of the staff members.Natalie felt extremely embarrassed and quickly tried to push him away. "Hey, tone down a little."Calvin couldn't contain himself. He lifted Natalie up and twirled her around twice.He then said joyfully, "You have finally become my wife; I have finally married you..."He was still in a state of uncontrollable excitement.He paid no attention to what the staff around him thought of him.At this moment, he couldn't hide the joy in his heart.Natalie, who was being lifted and spun around, felt dizzy and thought she saw two familiar faces.She quickly patted Calvin, signaling him to put her down.Calvin reluctantly put down the person in his arms and was about to kiss her again when Natalie reminded him. "Take a look behind you and see who that is."Calvin turned around.When he saw his sister and Curtis staring at him, a
But they behaved this way in public.It was unbelievable; embarrassing for sure.Natalie agreed with what Margot said.These two men were just shameless.Ignoring them, she and Margot carried the baby and left the courthouse first.Curtis and Calvin held their marriage certificates together, shook hands, and congratulated each other."Congratulations, you finally married the woman you love."However, they did feel bad for Gabriel.Right now, he was probably crouching in some corner, crying.Calvin chuckled. "Congratulations to you too. You've finally managed to win over my sister again."Curtis wasn't happy to hear that. "What do you mean by win over? Margot agreed willingly, okay? Did you see me forcing her just now?""Right, sure.."Calvin didn't argue with him and quickly went out of the courthouse.Curtis caught up and suggested, "How about we go celebrate together?"After all, they both got married on the same day, and such a joyous occasion deserved a bit of ceremon
Even while driving, Calvin couldn't bear to let go of Natalie's hand beside him. It was as if the moment he let go, she would fly out of the car window.Natalie tried to pull her hand back, but couldn't. Calvin was holding it rather tightly.She said, "You are breaking the traffic rules. Let me go.""No. At most, they will just lecture me on such a small issue. After all the effort it took to marry you, what if you run away if I don't hold your hand?"He focused on the road ahead while driving seriously with an unmistakable smile of happiness at the corner of his lips.Natalie gazed at him. From her angle, she could see Calvin's high, straight nose, sexy lips, and strong jawline.No matter how she looked at it, Calvin was flawless.But how did she end up meeting someone like that?What qualities or capabilities did she possess to become his lawful wife?Up until this moment, Natalie still felt like she was in a dream.She couldn't believe she married the man next to her.She
Curtis stared at Margot and asked, "Not a sweet-talker, huh?"Margot chuckled as she walked forward, not bothering to argue with Curtis."After all, today is the day we get our marriage certificates, we should dress in our best, right?"She wasn't very prepared either, but since Calvin arranged for them to stay at a six-star hotel, she couldn't just show up in casual clothes.Maybe Natalie was dressed even more beautifully than her.Curtis followed Margot into the elevator.In the cramped elevator, Curtis continued staring at Margot.Seeing how young and beautiful she was, he couldn't help but move closer to her, wrap his arm around her waist, and turn his head to kiss her hair with a hint of desire."Margot, be honest, are you bothered by the fact that I'm older?"Well, he wasn't exactly that old; he wasn't even forty yet.However, Margot looked so young that it made Curtis feel old.Margot glanced at him and smiled."You're not even as old as my dad."Curtis was speechle
Calvin and Natalie raised their glasses together after receiving the blessings from Margot.Both Calvin and Natalie said, "Margot, congratulations on your wedding.""And there's me too."Curtis, who had been left to the side, also raised his glass and said, "Let's all toast to a happy marriage and everlasting love."The four people exchanged knowing smiles, ready to enjoy a good drink together.However, Curtis suddenly took Margot's wine glass and set it aside.Margot looked at him silently.Curtis swapped her drink for a glass of juice and placed it in front of her. He patted her on the head and said, "Alcohol isn't suitable for you. Just have some juice instead."He had something important to do tonight.Margot had a very low tolerance for alcohol; every time she had even a little bit, she would get very drunk.In this beautiful evening with such splendid scenery, how could Curtis allow Margot to get drunk?"Well, if Margot can't drink alcohol, drink juice instead."Calvi
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
Frederick, exuding the presence of the head of the family, welcomed the arriving in-laws with a smile.Afterwards, he behaved well and didn't mention anything about Yasmine, nor did he cause any trouble with his sons.The in-laws were very careful not to mention Frederick's injury, as they didn't want to hurt his pride.Daniel saw how lively it was at home and decided to bring Ena's mother over so that the in-laws could take the opportunity to get to know each other better.In the days that followed, everyone got along very well.In Amberville, Alice Manor.Anthony and Lena were enjoying a peaceful and romantic time together here. No one was bothering them, and they were not going out to work.The two of them spent the entire day cozied up at home.It involved either snacking while watching a movie or playing games followed by some cuddling and kissing.Anthony often made delicious food for Lena and took care of her so well that she seemed completely pampered.This caused Len
"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
