Mable returned to the house and saw Rory playing with Lemon in the garden, chasing butterflies. Mable could not help but raise an eyebrow, finding the scene out of character for the tall and serious Rory. She could not imagine him having such a childlike side. However, she figured he would probably dote on his children when he became a father.Mable walked into the garden, where Adam stood with a severe expression. She patted his shoulder and said, "Don't just stand there. Have a seat."Adam sat on a nearby chair and looked at Mable, appearing hesitant to speak. Mable asked, "What's on your mind? You look like you're carrying a heavy burden."After playing in the garden for a while, Rory carried Lemon inside for water. Mable helped Lemon straighten her clothes and noticed the Jarius pendant hanging around her neck. She decided to take it off and return it to Rory."You should keep this safe," Mable said to Rory.During Lemon's first birthday celebration, Rory gave her the Jarius
Rory did not stay at the Muller Manor for long and left around noon. As he was leaving, he asked Mable, "Mable, are you still not considering marrying me?"Mable's expression stiffened momentarily, unsure why he was bringing this up again. "No, I'm not considering it," she replied hesitantly.Rory did not seem surprised by her answer. He nodded thoughtfully and then walked away.Meanwhile, Blair returned with Spike to the hotel on the other side of town. Spike eagerly showed his father his photos of his little sister. "Daddy, look. I took many pictures of my little sister yesterday."Blair took the phone and looked at the photos of his daughter. "She's adorable. Her eyes are gorgeous; when she smiles, it's like a little crescent moon. This one was taken in the garden, with many peach trees and butterflies. She loves chasing butterflies. This one was taken during dinner; she doesn't know how to use chopsticks, so she's holding a spoon and making a mess. She looks like a little kit
Blair walked into his study and answered a video call from Dr. Sandman."Dr. Sandman.""Master Blair, is there something you need?" Dr. Sandman was sitting by the window, looking at the evening sky.Blair began, "I've regained my memory."Dr. Sandman's face lit up with surprise upon hearing this. "Master Blair, you've regained your memory! When did this happen?"Blair was aware Dr. Sandman knew about his memory loss. He had even treated him for it, acknowledging the unpredictability of the condition."Last night," Blair replied.Dr. Sandman paused for a moment, his expression turning concerned. "Master Blair, how did you regain your memory?""I found my wife; she's still alive."Blair recounted the events to Dr. Sandman. He listened attentively as he explained everything.Dr. Sandman's expression grew increasingly severe as he listened to Blair's story."Master Blair, is your wife all right? How about the poison from back then?""Her poisoning should have been cured, and he
"Master Blair, how are you feeling now? Do you still experience any chest pains?" Dr. Sandman inquired.Blair put his hand on his chest, shook his head slightly. "Yes, but it's not as intense as before."Dr. Sandman nodded, expressing concern. "Master Blair, you are currently abroad. When do you plan to return to our country? I want to perform a detailed medical examination on you.""I estimate it will be some time before I return," replied Blair.Mable was currently in Italee. Blair would not return until her memory had fully recovered. He wanted to be around her closer."Dr. Sandman, do you know when I was poisoned?"Dr. Sandman replied, "I speculate it happened during your coma."Blair pondered momentarily, a hint of darkness flashing in his eyes. When Mable went missing, he had been in a coma for over two months. During that time, there had been ample opportunity for someone to poison him.However, who could it be?He was confident Tracey and Solomon would not poison him.
The Muller Manor had surveillance cameras installed in many places, including the children's playroom where Lemon often spent time. When Mable was not at home, she would check the surveillance to see how Lemon was doing.Mable looked at the suddenly rotating surveillance camera, feeling somewhat strange. Why was the camera moving on its own? Mable was about to check the camera when someone opened the children's room door.Jeremiah walked in from outside, carrying a box of pastries.Mable looked at him and smiled. "Hey, you're back.""Yeah. There wasn't much to do at the company this afternoon, so I returned early," Jeremiah replied.Jeremiah glanced at Lemon, sleeping on the sofa, and handed the box to Mable. "I passed by that coffee shop you like, and their cheesecakes just came out at this time, so I bought some.""Thank you, brother." Mable opened the box, revealing six exquisite cheesecakes that were quite appetizing.Jeremiah sat down on the sofa, gently stroking Lemon's
When Mable heard this, her heart tightened. She quickly said, "Jeremiah, you can't!"Jeremiah furrowed his brow and squinted when he saw Mable becoming nervous. "Astrid, have you forgotten how he hurt you in the past? Do you want to reconcile with him?""No," Mable replied.Mable looked at her brother earnestly. "I haven't forgotten the pain he caused me in the past, and I've never thought about reconciling with him. It's just that, no matter what, Blair is Spike and Little Lemon’s biological father. If you kill him, how will I face our two children in the future?"Mable pursed her lips and spoke with a heavy tone. "Especially Spike. He has a deep connection to Blair."Jeremiah frowned. His gaze shifted to Lemon, sleeping soundly on the couch. What Mable said made sense; they could not ignore the feelings of the two children."Astrid, look into your brother's eyes and tell me honestly. Are you just hesitating to act against Blair because of our children, or do you still have feel
In a few days, Blair called Mable and asked her out for dinner. She had agreed to have a meal with him when he came to pick up Spike from her home. Today, Mable had another motive — she wanted to discuss their divorce.The restaurant was Blair's choice. Mable, who had a meeting at her company in the morning, drove to the restaurant in the afternoon. It was a restaurant not far from her workplace.When Mable got out of the car, Spike saw and waved at her. Her eyes lit up. She did not expect Blair to bring Spike along."Apologies for keeping you waiting," Mable said, walking over and ruffling Spike's hair.Blair stood up to pull out a chair for Mable and spoke in a gentle tone, "It's fine. We arrived early."Blair was dressed in a black suit today, and his silver hair appeared striking under the restaurant's lights. Spike held Mable's hand and asked, "Mommy, how's your foot?""It's almost healed," Mable replied.Blair fixed his gaze on Mable. He had anticipated that her foot inj
Mable sipped her soup and spoke casually, "I look exactly like my mother."Blair raised an eyebrow, now understanding.Mable could not enjoy the food; she just wanted it to end. Spike seemed to sense that Mable wanted to talk to Blair alone, so after finishing his meal, he said, "Mom, Dad, take your time eating. I'm going to the mall to buy a gift for Nicki. I'll be back later."Mable was concerned. "Are you going alone?"Spike replied, "Mommy, don't worry. I'll ask Uncle Amos to accompany me."Blair nodded. "Alright, go ahead and buy the gift. Come back soon."Once Spike left, Mable dropped her forced smile. Her expression returned to its usual cold demeanor. Blair tried to serve her more food, saying, "Eat a little more; you've become so thin."Mable put down her utensils, "I'm full." She looked at Blair and asked, "Blair, have you considered the divorce?"Blair lifted his teacup and sipped before responding, "No, I haven't considered it, and I won't."He had worked hard to
