Chapter 9

Author: Miles of Scenery
Margot felt her heart break at Curtis' sharp glare.

Did he think she had pushed Tammy?

What a joke. Her husband didn't even trust her.

Margot thought about the baby in her belly and controlled her emotions. Then, she went downstairs to eat.

She did not leave the house for the whole day. She just kept looking up pregnancy facts on her phone.

Curtis and Tammy were in the hospital. Tammy had just left the ER and was being sent to her ward.

Curtis found her doctor and went to ask about Tammy's condition.

The doctor reported, "She's in bad shape, especially her brain. There's a risk of blindness. She also fractured her right leg. She might need to be in a wheelchair for a while."

Curtis left the doctor's office. He was perplexed as he headed to Tammy's ward.

He was indebted to Tammy. Now that Tammy had gotten hurt in his home, it would be hard to shake off the blame.

He stood outside of Tammy's ward. His posture was tense as he dreaded entering. However, he did not have a choic

    After dinner, Curtis changed his clothes to go to the hospital.Margot followed behind and asked softly, "Curt, can I go with you? If you're worried, I can wait for you at the door."She wanted to see how badly hurt Tammy was.Tammy did this to herself. She played with fire and she wasn't afraid to get burned.Curtis looked at Margot. He said, "I might not come home tonight. There's no use in you going to the hospital. Stay at home and rest.""Do you plan on being with her for the whole night?"Curtis did not answer her, but his gaze told her everything.Margot's bitter mood immediately resurfaced. However, she did not make a scene. She watched Curtis leave as she sat in the living room. She felt like something heavy was pressing down on her chest.When Curtis reached the hospital, Tammy was already awake.She was screaming at the nurses, "Get away from me. Turn on the lights. Why can't I see anything? Why?"Tammy began to throw things and the nurses could only duck.When

    For the next two days, Curtis did not return home.Margot was alone in their room every day. She would also eat and go to school alone.Her finals were approaching. All the students were focused on revising for their exams. However, whenever Margot sat at her dorm's study table, thoughts about Curtis would flood her mind.She would think about what he was doing. She wondered if he treated Tammy the way he treated her when they were together.Margot also wondered if they had any physical contact.She questioned if Curtis had missed her at all—even if only for a brief moment.She didn't even hear her roommates talking to her."Hey Margot, what are you thinking about? Let's go. It's time to eat," Quinn shouted.Margot came back to her senses and looked at Quinn. She laughed dryly. "I'm not hungry. You guys can go ahead.""What's been going on with you for the past two days? You've been acting restless. It's as if you've just experienced heartbreak. Is everything alright?"Margot

    For the next two days, Margot forced herself to focus on her studies.She wouldn't feel so miserable if she didn't think about Curtis and Tammy.Suddenly, the room's door was pushed open. Quinn was heaving as she ran toward Margot.She said excitedly, "Margot, quick. Someone is waiting for you downstairs."Margot turned to look at Quinn. She asked, "Who is it?""It's Royce. He's here for you again."Margot was stunned.Royce Evans … He was named the most handsome genius on campus. He was a postgraduate student.She never thought he would return after disappearing for two months.Margot said without hesitation, "I'm not going.""Why? He's Royce Evans, the most handsome guy on campus. There's a line of girls trying to win his heart, but Royce only has eyes for you. Why aren't you even the slightest bit interested in him?"Margot said, "I already have someone I like.""What? Someone you like? Who is he?" Quinn narrowed her eyes as she questioned Margot.Margot looked at her a

    Curtis did not want to recall the consequences of his impulsive actions when he was young.He looked at Margot. He hesitated slightly before changing the topic."Alright. Let's not talk about other people. Let's eat."Margot noticed Curtis did not want to talk about it, so she relented.She quietly lowered her head and ate while she tried to keep the bitter feeling in her stomach down.Tears brimmed in her eyes as she tried hard to not let the tears fall.Curtis did not touch his cutlery the whole time. He just sat and watched Margot eat.Margot looked up and noticed he was not eating. Her voice was slightly hoarse. "Curt, aren't you eating? You also seemed to have lost weight.""I'm not hungry."Margot was persistent in wanting to watch him eat. She put some food on his plate. "Curt, eat with me."Curtis reluctantly picked up his cutlery.After they ate, Margot asked, "So you won't be following me home tonight as you'll be accompanying her, right?""Yes." Curtis did not de

    Margot couldn't sleep.She kept tossing and turning. She grabbed her phone again and again to stare at Curtis' photos.Finally, at midnight, she couldn't stand it anymore and dialed Curtis' number.He picked up after a few seconds. He was still awake."What is it?" His husky voice always softened when he spoke to Margot.Huddled under her blankets, Margot was biting her arm as she choked out, "Curt, I miss you so much."She wanted to see him and be with him. She wanted to fall asleep in his arms every night like she used to.Curtis covered his phone and glanced at Tammy, who was still awake. "I'm going out to take a call."Tammy immediately pretended to be blind as she yelled, "Don't go, Curt! Curt, I can't see anything. Don't leave me!"Curtis said, "I'll just be at the doorway."When he was out of the hospital room, he asked, "Where are you?"Of course, Margot had heard Tammy sobbing and yelling.Her heart wrenched painfully. Even if she cared, she had to pretend that she

    He had been helping her?Margot wiped away the tears on her cheeks and turned to look venomously at Curtis who was standing on the steps.She shouted furiously, "Do you need to hold her so tightly to help her? Do you need to kiss her?"Curt, she clearly has a place in your heart. No one will think you're an asshole if you admit that you like beautiful women. That's just how men are."You like her, or else you wouldn't have brought her back. This is our home—the home you bought for me. Did you think it would be exciting to have sex with another woman in our room?""Margot."Curtis cut her off sternly. "You don't have a good memory, do you? Since you like throwing tantrums so much, then leave. And if you leave, don't come back."He was mad, and the energy he was giving off was frightening.He had just helped Tammy because she was about to fall. How did it become a kiss?He was just creating trouble for himself if he stayed with such an unreasonable woman.Margot was so upset th

    Divorce …Hearing Curtis say those words broke Margot's heart. She felt like she was suffocating from the pain.She was in distress. Her throat was so swollen she couldn't even say a word.She slumped down to the ground slowly and curled up on the floor in despair. She had no idea what to do.Curtis wanted to get divorced. What would happen to her and the baby?She sobbed and had no courage to answer him. Curtis' cold voice rang out again. "Margot, I'll give you ample financial security, and I won't neglect you in the future, either."Margot forced herself not to lose control of her emotions, despite tears trickling down her cheeks like broken strings of pearls.But she couldn't suppress her sobs as she said tragically, "Curt … thank you for saving me, and thank you for looking after me for all these years. Thank you for fulfilling my wish and marrying me."Curt, I won't get in the way of you marrying someone else. You're so resourceful. You'd still be able to get divorced

    At the restaurant, Curtis ordered an entire table full of food that Margot liked.Seeing that Margot wasn't eating much and hadn't even touched some of the food, he asked worriedly, "What's wrong? Is the food not to your taste?"Margot shook her head."Then, why are you eating so little?""I'll eat more fruit."Margot took the plate of fruit and began eating big mouthfuls.Curtis elegantly put a piece of steak in his mouth and swallowed. He looked at Margot, saying, "Will you come back with me after we eat?"Margot nodded obediently. "Okay.""Don't throw any more tantrums in the future.""Okay." She nodded again.As if she had suddenly thought about it, Margot looked at him and asked, "Curt, do you really not need me to have babies?"At this, Curtis looked at her. "You're still young and are currently studying. You don't need to have babies right now.""What if I'm already pregnant?" Margot blurted out.Curtis frowned. "Already pregnant?"Margot hurriedly shook her head a

    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
