Then, Lilac turned to Margot and asked, "Mommy, can you not go out with other men?"Margot frowned. "What? What men are you talking about?""Uncle Royce. Daddy said he doesn't like you going out with other men or he will get jealous."In truth, Lilac didn't fully grasp the concept of jealousy. She had merely seen it mentioned in short videos. So, she casually brought it up. It seemed he had forgotten the times when he got involved with other women. Besides, what concern was it of his who she associated with now? They weren't spouses or lovers. What right did he have to control her?Ignoring Curtis, Margot proceeded to give Lilac a bath after dinner. After ending the call, Curtis returned to the dining room to find Margot and Lilac heading to the bathroom, leaving him alone to eat. After finishing his meal and tidying up the kitchen, he approached the bathroom door and called out, "Do you need any help?"Margot replied coldly, "I'm giving Lilac a bath. What help could you off

Given that Ashley was an elder who used to treat Margot well, Matgot showed great respect to her now. It was necessary to respect Ashley. After all, she was Lilac's paternal grandmother. "Did you open this store as soon as you came back?" Ashley asked, looking at Margot, who was seated across from her. It had been four years, and Margot appeared to have grown more mature. She no longer had that girly look about her anymore. "Yes, the store opened just two days ago," Margot replied truthfully."Did you get money from Curt to open this place?"Ashley couldn't help her unfriendly attitude when talking to the woman who had put her son in danger.Margot only lowered her head in silence.The money did indeed come from the Crosby family. Martin had given her one billion. She had kept it under Natalie's name. She only withdrew it to open the pizzeria.However, she could afford to pay the sum if Natalie wanted it back.After all, her assets in Emeria had been unfrozen by the Morris

Margot lacked confidence in Curtis's ability to safely retrieve Lilac. She felt compelled to go herself and bring Lilac back. If the Crosby family refused to cooperate, they would face her wrath.Observing Margot's anxiety, Royce provided reassurance as he drove toward the Crosby residence."Lilac will be fine. I'll speak with Pamela. I'm sure Martin will return you Lilac after Pamela discusses it with him."After all, Martin indulged Pamela, who in turn always fulfilled Royce's requests.Margot glanced at Royce. Considering Royce's status, she nodded in agreement."Very well. I'll rely on you if they refuse to hand over Lilac."Margot didn't want to ask for the Morris family's help now. Even though they were quite powerful, she didn't want to have anything to do with them unless absolutely necessary. She was especially grateful for Royce's help.Royce gently patted her head and continued to reassure her."Stay calm, Margot. We're almost there."…Curtis arrived at the Crosby

Curtis reached out and took Margot's hand, motioning toward Royce. You're not needed here. Go on," he indicated."I'm here to visit my sister," replied Royce before turning to Margot. "Margot, you should talk things out with him. Give me a call when you're ready to leave. I'll be waiting over there.""Alright," Margot replied.Curtis' gaze remained cold as he watched Royce leave.Margot shook off Curtis' hand and demanded again, "Curtis, tell me what they want you to negotiate with me about."Only then did Curtis look at Margot. He spoke frankly, "Grandpa doesn't want to take Lilac away from you. However, they have a request.""What is it?""They want you to stay too and bear a son for the Crosby family." As Curtis said this, he appeared somewhat guilty, his gaze flickering for a moment. "But having a son isn't something you can decide on your own. As long as you stay, they probably won't interfere as much."Margot was surprised to hear that.They wouldn't take Lilac away. Als

Ashley had escorted Martin upstairs to rest. Upon returning downstairs and finding Curtis alone in the hall, she inquired in a somber tone, "Where are Margot and my granddaughter?""Mom," Curtis informed, "I've talked to Margot, and we'll comply withl your wishes. However, Margot says she doesn't feel comfortable living here, so I allowed her to return home first. If you wish to see Lilac, I'll arrange for her to visit you later. Just please, don't interfere in in our lives anymore.""You let them go just like that?" Ashley demanded angrily.Curtis' expression darkened at those words. "They're not used to this environment, so I allowed them to leave""Why would they be uncomfortable living in such a grand house with numerous servants? What could possibly dissatisfy her? Curt, why do you always take her side? Aren't you concerned she might disappear with Lilac again?"Curtis wasn't worried at all. "Margot won't leave again," he asserted firmly. "This isn't acceptable. A Crosby ch
