Margot froze completely. After Royce finished speaking, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning, both shocked and scared.She found it hard to believe that even Calvin once pointed a knife at her.Royce was clearly her benefactor, yet she treated him like he didn't matter at all.What exactly had she been through?Why did it seem like the people she loved always ended up hurting her?The person she disliked the most has, however, saved her once.Margot couldn't accept the reality of the situation. Shaking her head, she took trembling steps backward while muttering incoherently, "No, I don't know who among you is good or bad, and I don't know who among you is truly sincere toward me. I don't know, I can't remember anything. I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."She crouched on the ground in pain, holding her head while trying hard to recall everything about the past.However, she still couldn't remember anything.Her head felt like it was going to explode from the pain.Lena quickl
"Margot, are you feeling better?"Margot responded with something unrelated, "When will you come help me regain my memory?"Anthony hesitated upon hearing this and said, "It's not that I don't want to; it's that Lena and Curtis won't allow me to do it.""Why not?"Would it be bad for her to regain her memory?Once she remembered the past and understood the whole story, she might stop overthinking everything.At the very least, she was desperately trying to remember everything from the past.If she didn't want to remember, Margot couldn't guarantee she wouldn't go crazy."Margot, your health isn't very good. Hypnotizing could cause you a lot of harm, so you need to think it over carefully."Anthony actually hoped to hypnotize Margot.Regina was nagging him every day, urging him to quickly find a way to bring Margot back home.The only way for the family to live in peace and harmony was if she still couldn't remember the past."I've thought it through, and I want to regain my
Unless… The five children were fake.Natalie thought for a moment and said, "I've actually given this matter some serious thought. I don't know Zyla personally, but based on what Calvin says about her, she has always had an eccentric personality. I also doubt whether she really has five children."So I went to see the doctor specifically to ask about it. I didn't get much information from the doctor, so I paid to look into it. It turns out their hospital does have a pregnant woman expecting quintuplets named Zyla, and the age matches too."This implied that Zyla was indeed pregnant with quintuplets.Margot could hardly believe it.If Zyla was indeed pregnant with five children, and she knew that, why did she intentionally block Margot on the stairs and provoke her with words?Judging by her intent, she clearly aimed to harm her children.How could she bear to do that to her kids?Looking at Natalie, Margot explained, "Natalie, if I told you that Zyla purposefully used me to cre
"Margot was in so much pain that she nearly collapsed in front of me, almost suffocating. If I hadn't acted quickly to help her, you might not have seen her again."At that moment, the way Margot was behaving really frightened Lena.Curtis hurriedly asked, "Where is Margot now?"Lena looked upstairs.Curtis immediately started running upstairs.Calvin didn't go after him. Instead, he walked toward Lena and asked her, "Royce told Margot that I was holding a knife against Margot?"Lena nodded. "Yes, he also said that Lilac was killed by Curtis' family because Margot was heartless toward Curtis, so got what she deserved."Calvin's expression suddenly darkened, and he clenched his fists.Royce…He gritted his teeth and told Lena, "I'm going out for a bit. Keep an eye on the kids.""Okay."Upstairs, Curtis burst into the room and saw Natalie sitting next to Margot. Seeing that Margot was sitting there without any issues, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.However, he was stil
Calvin saw Royce in the hospital. First, he beat him up, and then he grabbed him by the collar and warned him."I'll tell you one more time, do not go looking for Margot. Regarding the matter with Zyla, I will handle it and give her an explanation."Royce felt extremely annoyed about getting hit for no apparent reason.He looked up and glared at Calvin, letting out a cold scoff as he said, "So tell me, how are you going to explain this to Zyla? Why can't I go see Margot? Do you all really believe that hypnotizing her and erasing all her memories can undo the harm you once caused her?"Calvin, Margot should cut ties with your Morris family. You don't deserve to be her family.""I dare you to repeat that!" Calvin was furious and felt a strong urge to beat Royce.However, Royce was no longer afraid of this family; after all, the worst that could happen was death.What was he afraid of?"I said, you guys are always bullying others and committing all sorts of bad deeds. Serves you r
Hearing Daniel speak so seriously and earnestly made her heart skip a beat.She didn't know why, but at this moment, she felt really touched.It turned out there was someone in this family who didn't like Margot, and remained devoted to Zyla regardless.It turned out that Daniel, who used to be unsociable, always doing his own thing and appearing aloof and indifferent, was so attentive to her.Zyla smiled happily.In Alice Manor, after much hesitation, Regina finally dialed Natalie's number.Natalie answered and said, "Hello."Regina set aside her haughty demeanor and spoke up, "Natalie, it's me."Natalie, upon realizing it was Regina, quickly said, "Mrs. Morris, what's the matter?"It was really surprising that Regina would call her.But she could probably guess the reason.Apart from the matter with Margot, there shouldn't be anything else."I'll get straight to the point. Come pick me up at Alice Manor after you finish your work today."Natalie was a bit confused. "Wher
After all, Regina was someone who could even harm her daughter. What couldn't she do?Margot really didn't want the kind-hearted Natalie to face any troubles or difficulties after marrying Calvin."Don't worry, Calvin will handle this for sure. No need to stress about it.""I'll step aside for a while, and you can go take a look."Anyway, she would not see Regina.Unless Anthony helped her regain her memory, and after she understood the whole situation, she would then decide whether to associate with the Morris family.Curtis nodded, and reassured Margot by saying, "Okay, don't worry. I'll go check it out in a bit."Margot still felt a sense of heaviness and discomfort.Seeing Louis had fallen asleep again, she picked him up and said, "You go ahead; I'll go upstairs and stay with Louis while he sleeps.""Alright, if you need anything, just let me know."……In the afternoon, Natalie and Calvin arrived at Alice Manor on time to pick up Regina.While they were in the car, Calv
Apparently, everyone was not too welcoming toward Regina.Regina glanced around the entire room but didn't see Margot. She asked, "Where is Margot?""Margot hasn't been feeling well lately and is resting in her room."" I'll go check on her." Regina turned and prepared to go upstairs.Curtis quickly stepped forward to block the staircase and said, "Margot said she doesn't want to see you recently. Please don't make things difficult for me, and please don't upset her anymore."If she wasn't Margot's biological mother, Curtis definitely wouldn't have let her in.What kind of mother could treat her own biological daughter so harshly?Thinking about all the suffering Margot endured at Emeria, Curtis wished Margot would cut ties with Regina.Since Calvin had helped him before, he couldn't be too heartless."Curtis, I'm her mother. What right do you have to stop me from seeing my daughter?"Regina was angry, glaring at Curtis while shouting.No one had ever dared to stop her from
As Jordan watched Branden's tall and broad figure from behind, he blinked, and his cheeks puffed out like balloons.Branden turned around to look at him. When he saw Jordan with such a pouty expression, he found it somewhat amusing and frustrating at the same time.Among the disciples, Jordan seemed the most carefree, but it turned out he had a strong sense of justice. He even knew how to worry and care about others.Branden asked, "Do you ever wish you had parents like Solace's?"After all, Jordan was found by Branden next to a trash can on the side of the road without any parents or relatives.Strangely enough, he had an incredibly strong will to survive. It just so happened that it would also eliminate any negative influences in Solace's fortune.With his willingness to give, wouldn't Solace be able to return to her parents and be a carefree child once again, just like before?Jordan looked sad and asked Branden in a somewhat puzzled manner, "Master, what do you mean? Are you
Curtis kept silently repeating Lilac's name in his mind. Only Lilac's name could keep him clear-headed.He held Margot's hand tightly and, in a raspy voice, said, "Let's take a break and continue when it's light out."Margot had long been thinking about taking a break.Curtis' appearance made her not want to take another step forward.She quickly took a blanket out of her backpack to cover Curtis and told him, "You lie down, and I'll get some dry wood to start a fire."On such a dark night, with the mountain being so cold, they had to start a fire. Otherwise, they would continue to lose their bodily heat. By that point, they might not even make it to the hilltop before they die."Okay."Curtis lay there, dazed, watching the bustling figures around him with an overwhelming ache in his heart."Margot, I'm really sorry for always making you go through tough times with me," he apologized.Margot was busy carrying firewood over to their firepit. She set about lighting the fire as t
"Jordan, do you have any way to ease Curtis' pain a bit? If he keeps hurting like this, we won't be able to move on," Margot said.She wasn't sure how much farther it was, but she felt like they had been walking for a long time.The sun was about to set, and there was not a single building in sight.Jordan ran back to stand in front of Margot. Seeing Curtis in pain, he felt a twinge of sympathy.However, Branden instructed that Curtis had to endure the pain and climb the mountain.Jordan looked at Margot and shook his head. "I don't have a solution either. But you can't let him bite you anymore, or his condition won't improve.""But with him like this, we can't get up there.""So you need to be more resolute. Think about your daughter—she really needs you right now. As her parents, can't you hold on a little longer for her sake?"Jordan intentionally provoked them, giving them a reason to go up the mountain.There wasn't a parent in the world who didn't want the best for their
Upon hearing Jordan's words, Margot quickly asked him, "Are you talking about my daughter, Lilac, when you mention the young apprentice? Is she doing well?"Previously, Curtis mentioned that Lilac was in danger.She knew that her daughter might face hardships by staying with Branden, but he probably wouldn't let her be in any real danger.Jordan pouted and didn't respond to Margot's words, simply saying, "Just listen to me. You'll be fine. What I say won't lead you astray."It was because these were Solace's parents. He was busy trying to win their favor, so there was no way he would harm them.He hoped that later, they could put in a good word for him in front of Solace."Alright, we're listening. Please lead the way, Jordan, and let's get going.""Okay. Stay close. If you get lost, don't blame me for not leading the way properly."After Jordan finished speaking in his playful manner, he skipped and hopped forward again.Margot helped support Curtis and asked, "Are you feelin
Anthony continued, "Also, make sure to keep an eye on those fierce beasts your master is raising. Don't let them harm my sister."Jordan was focused on eating and didn't respond.To save time, Margot didn't eat much. She grabbed the snacks Calvin had prepared for her and supported Curtis as they headed up the mountain.Calvin still didn't feel at ease and called out to them as they walked away, "Margot, if you really care about Curtis, you can let him have a bite, but make sure to take care of yourself first. Louis is still at home waiting for you both."Margot turned around and waved to Calvin. "I understand, Calvin and Anthony. Don't worry. I will make sure Curtis returns safely.""Okay. Take care.""Alright."Margot acknowledged them with a hum and, while supporting Curtis, began to climb the mountain path.Jordan was happily skipping and hopping along, leading the way beside the two of them.Calvin continued to watch until Margot and Curtis were out of sight, and then he t
The reason Curtis didn't lose his mind was because he kept looking at the piece of paper with Lilac's name on it. Because he thought of wanting to save his daughter, he held back, gritted his teeth, and persevered.Finally, they reached the foot of the mountain.Anthony even wanted to send them up the mountain.Suddenly, from the nearby bushes, a young and innocent voice called out softly. "I told you that outsiders aren't allowed on the mountain, right? You two leave. Only those two can go up."Upon hearing the sound, the four people turned to look in that direction.A young boy around eight years old emerged from the bush nearby. He stood on the steps, looking down at the adults with an arrogant expression on his face.Anthony recognized him. It was Jordan again.He stepped forward and asked, "I'm not an outsider, am I? I have such a good relationship with your master, yet I'm not even allowed to go up?"Jordan, who usually showed warmth towards Anthony, now said with an indi
"You can go to see Lilac, but are you able to control yourself right now?" Calvin asked.Curtis paused for a moment, furrowing his brows, and turned to look at the people standing beside him.He glanced around, and saw they were all his closest relatives, especially the woman standing nearby.He pushed Calvin aside, went straight to Margot, and wrapped her in a hug. His voice sounded low and husky as he said, "Margot, Lilac is in danger. Shall we go look for her? If we wait any longer, we might not see her again."At that moment, Curtis' mind was focused solely on his daughter, not Tina. He wanted to see his daughter.Margot also saw it. There was only a name on the paper charm. It was their daughter's name.But how did Curtis know she was in danger?He was even so eager to go find her that he didn't mention Tina any more."Alright. I'll go with you to find her," Margot replied as she hugged him while looking at Lena.It seems like he wanted to understand why his daughter's na
Anthony knew that there was nothing stopping Margot from coming to the hospital. So, he agreed to her request.As soon as Margot hung up the phone, she quickly came up with an excuse to ask her in-laws to help take care of Louis. Then, together with Lena, she rushed to the hospital.When the two of them arrived, Curtis was still under the influence of his painkillers. He was still lying in bed, unconscious.Margot walked over to the bedside to check on Curtis, making sure he was alright, before turning her attention back to her older brothers."Did Branden actually cure him? You were only gone for such a short while, and now you're back," Margot said.Lena, who stood nearby, was also quite curious.Technically, Anthony shouldn't have been back so soon. So what he meant was that Branden predicted what was going to happen and had Jordan wait for Anthony at the foot of the mountain?Anthony approached Lena and said, "Branden is aware of Curtis' situation. He specifically arranged f
Due to his uncertainty, Anthony spoke vaguely and didn't dare to tell Margot. He didn't want to get her hopes up for nothing.Anthony hurriedly took out the paper charm Jordan gave him. As he looked at it, he said, "Branden knew I was going to find him, so he had his apprentice wait for me at the foot of the mountain. He wanted me to give this to Curtis. Once Curtis sees it, he will go to find Branden, which means Branden is definitely able to solve it. When will the painkillers wear off?"Calvin glanced at the time and said, "In two hours. Are you sure? Can Branden really cure him?""I'm 80% sure. Otherwise, he wouldn't make Curtis meet him.""Curtis would lose control without Margot's blood. I couldn't stop him, so I had to give him a sedative. How can he meet Branden when he's not in his right mind?"Calvin looked very worried. He was really afraid of being forced into a situation where Margot had to make a sacrifice again.Anthony said, "In that case, we'll have to let Marg
