After the proposal, Benjamin began to prepare for the wedding.Shane was furious when he received the news. He felt that Benjamin had overstepped his boundary! How could Benjamin decide on such a big matter without consulting him first? Did Benjamin have experience with proposing? He had never done it before! That fucking brat!Shane was angry beyond words. But despite his anger, he still called Benjamin back to discuss the wedding arrangements."I won't stop you since you've made up your mind. However, you have to think this through. Once the wedding is held, the entire Londsville will know about your marriage, and Margot's identity will be exposed. By then, the two of you may have to endure the rumors and gossip. Even the company will be affected by this. So, Benjamin, are you ready to bear the risk?"Shane was tired, and his wrinkled face reflected his old age. He had given his all to ensure the Inkling Corporation's success. And now he would have to go through the trials and
Tamara observed Margot closely. "What are you worried about?"Margot remained silent for a while. "I don't think Benjamin and Sebastian will agree."Tamara asserted, "Sebastian will."Margot sighed. "But I'm not sure if Benjamin will."Tamara pondered for a moment. "That's true. He lost his memories of us. If he didn't, I'm sure he will agree."It was tough to say now.Margot nodded. "So let's forget about it. You can be my bridesmaid first, and then I'll be your bridesmaid next.""Okay," Tamara agreed.It was just an idea. And it was up to Margot to decide on her wedding.In the following days, Benjamin showed Margot numerous wedding plans. Each one was made to be the wedding of the century, one that could leave the world in awe.However, Margot didn't like such ceremonies. She felt they were too extravagant. It didn't fit her idea of a wedding.Margot desired a wedding that was uncomplicated and went off without a hitch. She was fine even if there wasn't a ceremony to begi
Surprise flashed across Margot's face. "You're willing to give me your savings? Are you trying to get me to help with some shady businesses?"Andrew closed his eyes, annoyed by her words. Margot shook her head. "No, thanks."Andrew looked at her. "But you're marrying into the Inkling family. Without a good family background or some insane amount of dowry, the Inkling family would not treat you well."Margot sneered. "I don't care about them. I'm marrying Benjamin, not them."Andrew gave her a solemn look. Seeing her determination, he nodded. "Fine, I won't insist since you've decided."He stood up to leave.Margot watched his retreating figure. Suddenly, she asked, "My mother … have you ever looked for her?"Age was starting to catch up to Andrew. He remained silent for a while before leaving.Margot lowered her gaze, a ghost of a sneer appearing on her face.What difference would it make if Andrew did look for Gwenda? It had been years since Gwenda's death.When Margot exi
"I do! I do want to be your daughter," Margot hurriedly exclaimed. She looked flustered. "I was just a bit overwhelmed. I never expected this. Aunt Alex, I …"Tamara laughed. "Since you're now her daughter, why aren't you referring to her as your mom?"Margot felt even more embarrassed!She grew up in an orphanage and had little concept of parental love. Although she had fantasized about having a mother like Tamara's, it was just a dream. She didn't have a mother. That was why she felt close to Alex. With Alex officially adopting Margot as her daughter, Margot gained a mother from that point onward.Margot's eyes watered. No matter how hard she tried to hold it in, she couldn't stop the tears from falling.Seeing this, Alex quickly took out tissues to wipe them away. "Don't cry. You'll get wrinkles if you cry."But the comforting words only made it worse.Margot threw herself into Alex's arms.Alex comforted Margot patiently, her eyes also glossing over.However, Jacob fr
Margot reached out to touch the wedding gown, feeling the expensive fabric. Every stitch and thread carried Benjamin's love for her. She looked up at Tamara. "I'm scared, Tammy."Tamara seemed to know what she was afraid of and hugged her close. "Don't be. This is real. It's really happening.Tears welled up in Margot's eyes. Tamara understood her the best. She feared this was just a dream, an illusion she would wake up from. There was no rebirth, cat-and-mouse games, or Nammu Bay destruction. Everything was just a trick her mind had made up.After all this time, Margot finally felt fear.She held onto Tamara tightly. Even when tears streamed down, Margot didn't dare to blink, afraid that she would return to a cold room if she did, a world without him.Tamara gently stroked her back. "Hold me tight, Margot. I'm real. You've felt the wedding dress. That's real, too. Nothing is an illusion. It was all real."Margot finally calmed down. She suddenly felt embarrassed. "Sorry about
Margot responded, "Yes, but I believe he will recover his memory soon."Joseph chuckled. "It doesn't matter if he does recover his memory. He loves you either way."A sweet smile appeared on Margot's face.He was right. Benjamin loved her with or without his memories. Nothing could ever change that.Joseph gazed at Margot for a while before shifting his gaze away. He turned to the night sky outside. "It seems that tonight will be a special one."Margot looked at him. "Do you have any plans for the future, Joseph?"Joseph smiled. "I will work for Moore Corporation. After all, I'm the only one in our family who studied business."Margot's eyes flickered. Joseph's life was still the same as in her past life. He would still manage Moore Corporation while the other brothers shine in their respective fields."That's great! I'll have a powerful backer now. I can just mention your name if someone bullies me. As the cousin of the Moore Corporation's president, no one would dare lay thei
"You're right!" Tamara exclaimed, and the three women chatted for a while before gradually falling asleep.In the Inkling Manor, lights were on, and a festive atmosphere filled every corner. Wealthy young men who knew Benjamin gathered there, celebrating the night.A few people sat on the couch by the pool. There were various drinks on the table. Jack picked up a bottle and praised, "This is a good wine. It's at least 30 years old! You're going all out, Mr. Inkling."Benjamin's face carried a contented smile. "It's my big day, so let's all have a good time together."Jack gave him a thumbs up. "You're very generous, Mr. Inkling."The others laughed along.Benjamin turned to Sebastian and suddenly smiled. "Why are you so calm? When we go over tomorrow, I wonder what challenges Tamara has for you."Sebastian calmly muttered, "She'll only cause trouble for you."Benjamin cocked an eyebrow. "You're quite confident. I can't wait to see you eat your words tomorrow."Sebastian shrugg
The morning sunlight bathed the earth, casting a brilliant glow on every corner of Simmons Residence. Everyone's faces were filled with smiles. In the room, the styling team was already in position. They first helped Margot into the wedding gown and began styling her hair.Although Margot never decided on her bridal makeup, she did try each style. To surprise her, Benjamin accompanied her to try out the bridal makeup but kept the final choice from her.Now, dressed in the beautiful wedding gown, Margot remembered the makeup styles she had tried before, and a smile graced her face. Tamara and Natasha also changed into their bridesmaid dresses. The makeup artist was working on them when Alex walked in with a gentle smile. "Have you done your preparation for the challenges?"Tamara gave a thumbs up. "Don't worry, Mom. I won't let them take your daughter away easily."Alex giggled. "That won't do. We have to see if Margot agrees."Margot immediately exclaimed, "I'm all in favor!"
