Zyla didn't expect that Calvin knew everything.She lay there, too scared to utter another word."Looks like you have no respect for anything at all, even resorting to deceive us...""But regardless of anything, she is a victim now." Daniel, who was sitting next to him, interrupted Calvin. "Can't it wait until she's better to address it? How important can it be, compared to Zyla's life?"Calvin turned to Daniel. "You're still defending her? Even if Zyla dies here today, it would be her own fault.""Calvin." Daniel suddenly stood up, facing Calvin. "Who are you to come here and criticize her? The person most responsible for why Zyla is like this today is you."The implication was that it was not Zyla's fault; it was Calvin's fault.Calvin understood what Daniel meant.Yes, a foster sister who would do anything to achieve her goals… Well, it was all thanks to Calvin.Who had him and his father adopt her and bring her back to the Morris family?Who could blame them, since the wh
At that moment, Royce happened to walk in carrying some food.Seeing Daniel still there made him very irritated, so he walked over and said, "Daniel, you've been staying with Zyla for several days now. You should go back and rest for a while."It was rumored that the second son of the Morris family had a strong aversion to women. He kept his distance from them and didn't even allow his own mother to get close to him.But why was he fine when it came to his adopted sister?Misogyny probably varied from person to person.Daniel never took Royce seriously.But he really should leave and go meet his so-called biological sister.He stood up and looked at Zyla. "Think carefully about what I've said. Give me your answer next time I come."Zyla lay there, feeling quite embarrassed and let out a hesitant response.Royce brought some food over, sat beside her, and personally fed her."What did he ask you to consider?"Zyla averted her gaze, "Nothing, it's nothing."Royce frowned, loo
"Why is Zyla so ruthless? She clearly doesn't care about Margot's presence at all. Is she trying to make all of you dislike Margot to the point where you force her to leave?"Calvin looked deeply pained and filled with regret. "It's all my fault. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have brought Zyla home. "After more than twenty years of affection, now we have to expel her from the Morris family, but I can't bear to do it. I'm unsure whether to punish her, and I feel guilty about it. Regardless, the way Zyla has turned out today is all because we indulged in her too much.Even if we were to punish Zyla now and make her apologize to Margot, it won't heal the emotional trauma already inflicted on Margot."Moreover, the fabricated evidence from Zyla was actually discovered by Curtis himself.In Curtis' view, these so-called family members were obviously protecting Zyla."So what you're saying is, you don't want to push Zyla away, but you still want Margot to come back to you?" At th
Curtis couldn't help but frown and said, "I'll go check it out, you go and talk to Margot.""Okay."As Curtis was coming downstairs, he noticed from a distance that the person sitting in the living room looked somewhat familiar.But then again, he had never seen Margot's second brother, so how could he possibly look familiar?He must be mistaken.But when he took a closer look, Curtis was astonished."Dan?"Daniel was also very surprised when he saw Curtis. "Curtis?"The two of them looked at each other, unable to believe that the person standing across from them was, in fact, their best friend from years ago with whom they had shared life-and-death experiences in a certain country.In Curtis' memory, ever since Daniel separated from him and Gabriel, there had been no news of him.They hadn't been in touch for all these years.He didn't expect...The person standing in front of him was indeed his best friend. Despite usually not interacting with people, Daniel got up and t
Seeing Margot coming downstairs, Curtis pushed Daniel aside and gestured. "She is your sister; you probably haven't met her yet."Daniel's gaze fell upon Margot.Margot also looked at him, gradually making her way toward the living room.Although she had never met Daniel all this time, she had heard that he had a strong aversion to women and disliked their presence.She simply stopped ten feet away.Margot stood there, reluctant to call out to him, uncertain if this man had ever hurt her in the past.Daniel stood up, his eyes still fixed intently on Margot.Although he had seen her before at the Morris residence back then, she was Anthony's "girlfriend", so he didn't really pay much attention to her or give her a second glance.Now, he looked closely at her. He found that Margot seemed so petite, not at all like what he imagined; a person who would intentionally harm Zyla for the sake of her own status.Additionally, she was now Curtis' wife.Curtis was such a wise and smart
Curtis smiled and changed the subject, "It's such a rare coincidence that we ran into each other like this. I'll give Gabriel a call and have him join us for a late-night snack."Daniel said, "Okay."Gabriel arrived at 9 PM.When the car stopped at the villa entrance, he specifically glanced at the house where Natalie and Calvin lived.The place was brightly lit. Even though he couldn't see anything, he could imagine that the married couple inside were probably very happy.Benjamin probably brought them a lot of happiness.Feeling a bit uneasy, Gabriel took a deep breath, straightened his shirt, and stepped forward to ring the doorbell.After the nanny opened the door, she respectfully said, "Mr. Sawyer, right? Please come in."Gabriel walked into the villa and was both surprised and delighted to see Daniel sitting on the couch.Daniel stood up and walked toward him.The two of them didn't say anything; they just shared a silent understanding and hugged each other. They held
Calvin glanced at Gabriel and then looked over at Natalie in the distance.Seeing their eyes meet, he couldn't help but feel a hint of jealousy, wondering why the first person she looked at wasn't him.However, Gabriel was her ex-husband after all. There was nothing Calvin needed to be worried about."Are you here to bring food for Margot?" Calvin asked.Natalie then reacted and said, "Huh? Yes, you guys just go on ahead. Don't worry about me."She felt incredibly embarrassed and hurriedly carried the tray upstairs.Curtis eagerly raised his beer glass and signaled to his best friends around him, saying, "Cheers, everyone. Let's toast."Gabriel joined in with a laugh. "Cheers."......Upstairs, Natalie carried some food into Margot's room and couldn’t help but mutter, "How did those two end up together?"Margot and Lena looked up at her and asked, "Who?""Do you two not know why the four men downstairs, including Gabriel and Cal, are drinking beer?"Margot and Lena looked a
Next door, Curtis, also returned to Margot's room at twelve o'clock.Seeing that she was still awake and continuously watching Louis nearby, he climbed into bed and leaned over to kiss her on the cheek."Go to sleep, Louis has already fallen asleep."Margot couldn't sleep.For several nights, she hadn't had a proper sleep.Looking at Curtis, she said, "You all seem to get along quite well together."Sometimes, she really didn't understand her family; on the surface, they all seemed pretty nice to her.But in reality, they had done things to hurt her in the past.Margot didn't want Curtis to be like her and stop associating with that family, but they didn't allow her to remember the past, so seeing them made her uncomfortable.As for Daniel coming over, she didn't even want to say a single word to him.Curtis gave Louis a kiss and held him tightly in his arms."Actually, Calvin and Daniel are really nice. You forgave Calvin before, but now you don't remember anything, so it's
