Curtis knelt beside his daughter's grave, tears streaming down his face as he clutched the headstone. His daughter was only three years old. The memory of her accident flashed before his eyes, and his heart felt like it was being torn apart by a thousand ants.He, a healthy man, had almost lost his life jumping into the sea. Would his young daughter, who had been struck by a car and then fell into the sea with the exploding car, have survived? Could she have survived such a situation?Curtis knew he was lucky to have survived. But his daughter—she didn't stand a chance. Her small, defenseless body couldn't have possibly survived the injuries and the explosion.She might have left this world a year ago. Curtis couldn't accept the fact that his daughter was gone. He regretted not being there for her and cried uncontrollably.It was all his fault. He had delayed going to pick her up, and that delay had led to her accident. He should have been there for her, and now she was gone."S
Natalie hugged her son tightly, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably."If Lilac knew how much you miss her, she might miss you, too. But once people are gone, they can't come back."Benjamin, be a good boy. Margot will be here soon. Let's not talk about Lilac in front of her, okay?"Tommy also walked over, reaching out to pick up Benjamin and wiping away his tears."Benjamin, control your emotions. Let's not think about Lilac for now. We still need to shoot a scene later."Benjamin looked at Tommy, still unable to stop sobbing."Uncle, will Uncle Curtis take good care of Lilac over there?"Tommy rubbed his head and comforted him, "Of course. They left together, after all. Curtis loves Lilac so much, he will definitely take good care of her.""I want to go see Lilac again."Benjamin pointed in the direction of Lilac's grave."Not now. Let's finish filming these two scenes first, okay? Besides, when Margot comes later, how sad do you think she'll be if she remembers Lil
"It's also good to have a son. He can be brothers with Benjamin.""Yeah, we'll have to ask Benjamin to take care of Louis in the future."Margot smiled too, looking at Natalie with joy in her eyes.Natalie's eyes were misty, and she quickly avoided eye contact.Realizing something, Margot also looked away and said, "Natalie, are you really not going to reconsider Calvin? He really likes you."Speaking of Calvin, Natalie felt a slight tug at her heart. She pursed her lips and admitted, "We're not suitable for each other.""How do you know it won't work out if you don't give him a chance?""Some things are irreversible and often end up hurting both parties. Why bother starting when we know there won't be a good outcome?""You're thinking too much. Love is supposed to make you fearless. If you like someone, pursue them bravely. Why care about the outcome?"Natalie looked at Margot. Seeing that she was still too naive in matters of love, Natalie smiled bitterly."Margot, one shou
He didn't even notice Margot following him. It wasn't until she caught him when he almost fell that he regained some consciousness and then turned around.When he saw Margot's face again, his reddened and moist eyes appeared even more desolate.Why was Margot here? Was she also here to visit their daughter?No, she seemed to be in good spirits, so she probably wasn't here to visit Lilac. Was she following him?Curtis swallowed uncomfortably. He opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted by Margot."Are you okay? You don't look so good. Do you want me to take you somewhere?"Curtis, who had almost lost control and wanted to hug Margot, was brought back to reality instantly by her words.Margot didn't remember him.He couldn't let Margot be as miserable as him by letting her remember him and Lilac. He shouldn't appear again and disturb Margot's new life.With this in mind, Curtis coldly pushed away Margot's hand and choked out, "I'm fine."He continued dragging his w
Margot didn't expect to be rejected again. Wasn't he misunderstanding something?Seeing Curtis walking away, she quickly got out of the car and stopped him, trying to explain, "I also have children. I'm a mother, too. I didn't approach you with other intentions in mind."I just feel like we have a connection. It's like I've seen you somewhere before. That's why I wanted to get to know you."Can you take a closer look at me? Do you really not recognize me?"She found Curtis familiar and felt like she should have known him from before.Why didn't he recognize her? Or was she imagining things?Curtis met Margot's gaze, looking at her hopeful eyes. His heart beat wildly, impulsively wanting to reach out and hug her.But he felt so guilty and self-condemning. He still couldn't accept the fact that Lilac was gone.He didn't want Margot to remember him and Lilac and suffer like him. So, he had to reluctantly say, "I'm sorry, but I really don't recognize you.""But I feel like I know
Knowing that Ashley couldn't bear to part with Louis, he hurriedly put an arm around Ashley's shoulders and whispered comfortingly in her ear."It's okay. Margot will take Louis back here in a few days."Ashley thought about the agreement with the Morris family. She had no choice but to compromise and let Margot take Louis away.In fact, she didn't have the right to forcibly keep the child.If she hadn't brought Lilac to the Crosby residence before and had taken good care of her, the Crosby family wouldn't have encountered such a big problem.Martin's, Curtis', and Lilac's deaths were all because of her.Now, Margot had given the Crosby family another descendant after much difficulty. This time, Ashley swore she would never again unilaterally decide to keep Louis by her side.As long as her only grandchild could grow up healthy, even if he didn't return to the Crosby family and stayed by Margot's side forever, they would have no complaints.…Meanwhile, Royce hurried to catch
As long as he could peacefully break up with her, she would pretend she hadn't seen anything.Royce felt like a sharp knife had cut through his heart. The pain was so intense that he might suffocate.He tried to control his emotions and nodded in agreement, saying, "Okay. I'll annul our engagement, and Louis will be yours."He had slept with Zyla, defying Margot's wishes. She would inevitably reveal their affair. By then, there was no way Margot's brothers would let him off the hook.Instead of being despised by Margot and driven away by the Morris family, he might as well leave with a little dignity and respect for himself.But after so many years of his dedication and affection, he couldn't accept such a result."Thank you," Margot sincerely said. Not wanting to owe Royce, she added, "I will give you some financial compensation.""There's no need." Royce refused her kindness and then looked at the driver. "Pull over."When the car stopped, he looked at Margot."Margot, I hop
"What?" Gabriel was dumbfounded, his voice still trembling as he stared at the vivid ghost in front of him."You… Do ghosts still order takeout from the mortal world? Or should I put some food in front of your grave?"Curtis was once again speechless.He bypassed Gabriel and sat on the couch. "Hurry up. Just order anything for me."Gabriel could only follow Curtis' order. As he did, he looked over and saw him sitting on the couch, causing it to sink slightly. He found it even more unbelievable.According to reason, ghosts leave no trace of their actions. So, why did Curtis have weight?Feeling incredulous, Gabriel approached the ghost step by step. Standing in front of the ghost, he raised his hand to try to touch him.Curtis slapped his hand away, looking helpless."Would a man of high education still believe there are ghosts in this world?"Gabriel felt pain in his hand that was slapped. Looking at Curtis again, his eyes widened. His mouth was open so wide that an egg could
