Just when they were having dinner, Curtis and Tammy returned home.Margot didn't bother to look at them and continued eating.She simply ignored their presence.Or perhaps her heart had grown numb, and she couldn't care less about them.However, Laura was not as forgiving; she had a knack for holding grudges.When she turned her head and saw Curtis returning with the homewrecker, she became visibly upset.Laura set down her cutleries, stood up, and rushed toward them while shouting, "Curty, why did you bring this woman back? "She hit me before and even insulted Margot. You're not allowed to be with her. Tell her to get out!"Curtis remained expressionless as he cast a brief glance toward the dining room.Seeing that Margot finally came downstairs to have dinner, he didn't react much. Instead, his gaze fell upon Laura."Who brought you here? Have you run out of places to fool around?""Curty, how can you talk to me like that? I'm still your aunt!" Laura pouted, looking very

"They want you to take responsibility?" Ashley speculated. Martin chided instantly, "What responsibility are they talking about? We've compensated the Vaughns with so many resources back then. What other responsibility do you need to bear?" Curtis kept his mouth shut. From a humanitarian point of view, he was supposed to be responsible. Martin knew Curtis' character well. He was the type who held to his principles. However, the daughter of the Vaughns was already infertile. How was she going to carry on the family line for the Crosby family? Martin looked at Margot. "Margot, don't blame Curt. That year, he knocked her over with his car. The accident resulted in her being infertile. Hence, she is using that to rely on Curt."Don't worry. With us here, no one else will be able to touch your place. But, the condition is that you must bear a child for us Crosbys within two years. Do you understand?" Margot hung her head low stiffly. She didn't expect the entire family to kno

Curtis watched as he stood a short distance away. A wave of anger came over him. "Is there no space in this big house for you to sleep, Margot?"Margot was lying on her side, with her back against him. She pulled the throw blanket over herself and ignored him. He walked to her front and stood there. He growled."Who are you trying to avoid like this? Do you think I will still touch you?" Margot was very irritated. She sat up and met his gaze. "I just like to sleep on the floor. Do you have a problem with that?" She wasn't familiar with this place. Since this was the place that Ashley led her to, this was where she was going to spend the night. She didn't know that Curtis would come in, too. Now that the situation had come to this for them both, they were certainly not going to share the same bed anymore. What was wrong with her letting him sleep on the bed? "Fine. Go ahead and sleep on the floor if that's what you like. Sleep all you want. No one's going to bother y

"Now, you want me to pay off this debt. I am not going to do that. At most, I'll return the clothing and the knowledge I've learned to you."He only knew how to make her suffer. She could forget about his distrust of her. But she was not going to bow down to capitalism if he wanted to keep her as a slave by his side. "So, it was wrong for me to sponsor your studies, Margot?" Curtis didn't expect her to use such a lame excuse. No matter how much she tried to reject it, she had to pay back what she owed for the rest of her life. "Either way, I'm not signing that." Margot threw the contract aside and turned to look out the car window. Curtis looked at the contract that was thrown aside and held back the anger inside him. He pursed his lips and said, "Either you sign off on this contract, and we'll get divorced, or our marriage will keep dragging on." He stared at her. "You're probably itching to leave me and then pay Royce a visit at his grave, aren't you?" Margot didn'

"Wow, you've grown so much! How nice, we'll be neighbors from now on, so we can play together often." She hugged Margot and went inside. Margot was very excited, looking at the mature and pretty lady beside her. She couldn't help but feel a bit choked up. "Is it really you, Natalie? Where have you been all these years? I couldn't reach you at all."Especially after high school graduation, she wanted to thank Natalie for her past kindness, but she couldn't reach her by phone. She asked Curt, but Curt also said he had no idea.Margot knew that Natalie and Curt were friends. If Curt doesn't know where Natalie is, how can she find her?"A few things happened in these years, and I was abroad. But now I'm not leaving anymore. Come on, let's go to the backyard for a barbeque." Natalie held Margot's hand and walked through the villa towards the backyard. Standing at the backyard gate, Margot suddenly let go of Natalie's hand. She let go of Natalie's hand because she saw Tamm
