“Hahaha!” Tamara burst out laughing when he saw the way he looked. However, she remembered that it was inappropriate for her to laugh like that in that situation, so she covered her mouth. She was laughing so hard that her eyes were scrunched up.Sebastian glanced at her, and then he held her hand. “Let’s leave this place.”After she was done laughing, Tamara said seriously, “Sebastian, you look better with dark hair. Promise me that you’ll never dye your hair, alright?” Sebastian looked at her with a faint smile. “But I think I look quite good like that.”Tamara was speechless.Her gaze seemed to be saying, “Are you serious? Are you sure there’s nothing wrong with your judgment? Have you thought of what you just said?”However, she did not voice out her thoughts. She just shot him a glance and said, “I forbid you to dye your hair.”She threatened him.Sebastian smiled and said, “Mm-hmm. Whatever you say.”He was still wearing a faint smile and challenging her a second ago. H
“Let’s change into these.”Tamara handed the coat to Sebastian, and he quickly put it on. Tamara, on the other hand, hid in a corner and changed into the dress. Changing their clothing offered a slight reprieve from danger. Those people already remembered what they were wearing previously, and their attires stood out very much as well.Tamara looked at Sebastian. “Would we make it in time if we go to the beach now?”Sebastian glanced at his watch and said calmly. “We can make it.”Tamara was panicking, but she gradually calmed down. Then, she said, “Let’s go then.”“Mm-hmm.”Sebastian nodded and held her hand. Both of them moved quickly toward the beach.Right at that moment, a woman suddenly appeared in front of them.It was a middle-aged woman.Sebastian and Tamara instantly had their guard up.At first, the woman was in doubt when she looked at Tamara. Then, she started laughing. “I found you. You’re the one who saved me. I slept for almost 18 hours after I went home yeste
However, Sebastian suddenly slammed on the brakes right then!“What’s the matter?” Tamara immediately asked. She looked at Sebastian with a confused expression.Sebastian’s line of sight landed on the dock in the distance. After a while, he said, “We can’t go there.”Tamara was stunned. “Why? Isn’t that the warship Jeremiah brought over?”“No.”Sebastian shook his head. As he replied to her, he put the car in reverse and drove backward.However, the people on the dock had already noticed Sebastian and Tamara, so they immediately rushed toward them.Tamara’s attention snapped to the detained soldiers at the dock, who unexpectedly began rising one by one. With guns in their hands, they ran toward them!They were actually just faking it! They were putting up an act to trick them!Tamara’s expression immediately turned cold. She looked around the car and suddenly saw two guns.She was dazed for a moment until she pieced it together. The middle-aged woman had prepared the guns. Sh
Jerome had a very serious expression as he looked at Jeremiah, who was holding the binoculars. “What should we do now, Mr. Custry?”Jeremiah was calm and was not nervous at all. He said, “If he doesn’t accept the terms, tell him he will lose this island.”“But Young Mr. and Mrs. Lynch are still on the island,” Jerome immediately said.Jeremiah put down the binoculars and smiled. “Do you think I have no other preparations?”Jerome was stunned. “Mr. Custry, can you not keep me guessing? My anxiousness is killing me.”Seeing that Jerome was extremely anxious, Jeremiah pretended to be even more profound. “I’m not telling you.”Jerome was speechless. He was really worried sick! What kind of preparations did he have?Jeremiah patted him on the shoulder. “Let’s first contact Ewan.”Jerome was speechless.It was truly torture to be told there was a secret but not the content of the secret.Jerome sighed helplessly and returned to the room to continue communicating with Ewan.Jeremia
Ewan looked terribly sullen. “What a bunch of trash! The city is so small, yet they can’t even find the two of them!”Alice looked sullen as well. After a while, she said, “Ewan, what should we do if they start firing at us?”Ewan pondered for a moment while remaining in the same place. After a while, he said, “Take the things you like with you. We’ll prepare to leave at any time.”“But the residents…” Alice immediately frowned.“What does it matter to us if they live or die?” Ewan said, “They were already on this island when we came. We are the ones who helped them improve their lives. They should be grateful to us. Now that we’re leaving, even if they died, they are just repaying us.”Alice was stunned.Ewan walked over and looked at her. “My dear sister, what’s there to fear as long as we’re still alive?”Alice’s mouth was agape, and she was suddenly at a loss for words.She suddenly felt that the Ewan standing before her was very unfamiliar, so much so that she was a little
At nightfall, the two followed Anthony’s map and made their way out of there. They hardly ran into any soldiers on their way out. They arrived at the beach and saw a small boat docking by the shore.Sebastian and Tamara looked at each other. They could tell from each other’s eyes that they felt a little relieved.Jeremiah was on the cruise ship in the distance and was looking out through the binoculars. When he saw the figures appearing by the shore, he immediately said, “Open fire. Blow that eyesore of a castle into smithereens.”“Roger that!”After Sebastian and Tamara got into the boat, they heard a dull noise coming from nearby. They looked up and saw a few bombs flying toward the castle.Tamara was in disbelief. “How ruthless.”Sebastian smiled. “That’s very clever.”In a moment of swift contemplation, Tamara pieced everything together, understanding the full scope of the situation. Bombing the castle after they got into the boat could divert attention and draw fire away fr
She saw Sebastian looking at her with a big grin.Tamara was speechless.“Didn’t I say you’re not allowed to come in?” Tamara looked at him a little angrily.Sebastian immediately put her in his arms and massaged her gently with his big hands. The burbling of the water could be heard as he moved.At first, Tamara wanted to resist. However, she instantly turned to jelly as he massaged her. She looked even angrier as she was annoyed by how easily her body gave in to comfort.Sebastian said in a deep and pleasant voice, “I just felt that you’re too tired, so I came in to give you a massage. What are you thinking?”Tamara’s cheeks were already flushed because of the steam. However, when she heard what he said, she turned so red that even the tip of her ears looked pink and seductive.Tamara struggled to get to her feet. However, the tub was extremely slippery, leaving her with nothing to grasp for support.She struggled for a while but to no avail. Therefore, she could not help b
There was a pause before Tamara said, “He said he has to carry out his mission, but Jeremiah already gave the order to attack the island. Isn’t it very normal for me to be curious about his mission?”Sebastian’s dark gaze was fixed on her. After a while, he suddenly burst out laughing. “Mm-hmm. It’s very normal.”Tamara subconsciously avoided his gaze for a moment. She kept feeling that he had seen through all of her.She calmed down and said seriously, “What exactly is his mission?”“Assassinate Ewan and Alice,” Sebastian said slowly. This matter could not be kept a secret for too long. Tamara would know about it sooner or later.Tamara was stunned. “He’s going to do that?”“Yes.” Sebastian nodded. “But he is following Jeremiah’s order. This is a test Jeremiah has given him.”“A test?”Tamara was stunned again. She experienced an unsettling sensation, as if something had already occurred without her knowledge.Sebastian sat on the bed, pulled her into his arms, and said in a
The bed was also adorned in striking white. Margot's bridal gown gradually slipped off, and her hair spread out behind her on the bed. Her smooth skin shone beneath the dazzling light.Benjamin stared at her. "Margot, you have to spend the rest of your life making up for your lies.""Okay," Margot agreed without hesitation.The temperature in the room rose, and the night had just begun.It was as Tamara said. Because of their tragic past, the heavens decided to bless them in this life. They lived happily ever after from that day onward.Benjamin successfully inherited the Inkling Corporation. A year later, Margot gave birth to a daughter. She resembled Benjamin and was as beautiful as a doll.Their little girl grew up in a loving family, and the love between Margot and Benjamin only grew with time. They developed Nammu Bay, transforming it into a popular tourist destination.Another year passed, and Tamara and Sebastian got married. The wedding was almost identical to the one fr
The newlywed walked into the wedding hall hand in hand.The wedding hall was also well-decorated. Shane, Trevor, Jacob, and Alex sat in the front row.The host congratulated the couple, and after the couple exchanged rings, the crowd erupted in cheers. The wedding went past quickly. And when Margot was led to her bridal room, she was still very much in a daze.Because of Margot's condition, she had to leave early and let Benjamin deal with the guests alone.As time passed, Margot grew more and more anxious. But she didn't dare move a muscle. Benjamin had told her to keep the veil on and wait for him.Margot had never been this obedient before. But she had no choice. Disobeying wouldn't do. What if her husband ran away?Just then, the door opened. Margot's heart tightened, and she immediately went tense in anticipation.A faint stench of alcohol wafted over, and she saw his shoes from under the veil.He was standing before her but made no move to greet her.Margot couldn't help
When the others saw Benjamin standing still in a daze, they all asked in confusion, "What's going on? Why did he stop?""What is he thinking about?""Did he lose his mind because he was too excited to meet his bride?"Someone made a joke, and others burst into laughter.Downstairs, Sebastian exchanged looks with Tamara, who was upstairs. His gaze returned to Benjamin.The wedding had been going on smoothly. But it seemed that Benjamin's memories might be their biggest challenge.Now that Benjamin had recovered his memories, what would he do next?However, Benjamin quickly came back to his senses. He walked forward calmly until he reached the door. As his gaze swept over Tamara and Natasha, a small smile appeared on his face.Tamara piped up, "Mr. Inkling, Nat and I had planned to set up some challenges for you. However, considering the hardships you and Margot have gone through, those challenges seem trivial in front of you. So, I thought, why not give you a clear path that led
"Shit! Isn't that too ruthless?""Leave it to the four Moore brothers to pull this trick!""Stop standing around and start drinking!"Benjamin watched on without any change in expression. He turned to the last row of men and smiled. "I'll leave the first round to you."Those men were all eager to try. They rolled up their sleeves and loosened their ties, their eyes gleaming with excitement.Benjamin made room for them, and they eagerly stepped forward. They picked up the glasses and downed them in one gulp."Let's go!" The cheers that erupted motivated them further. But despite their fierce drinking, they were no match for the abundant alcohol. When they looked up, they found that they were only halfway through. Some of them were already feeling tipsy!Sunlight spilled onto the drinks. A gentle breeze caused ripples on the liquid, resembling scattered stars.The men noticed the entrance was within arm's reach, and they gritted their teeth to endure the torture.Harris was th
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!"
"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
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
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
"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
