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
Sebastian grabbed her hand and kissed it gently. “What are you thinking of?”Tamara immediately pulled her wandering mind back to the present. “Nothing.”Sebastian looked at her twinkling eyes as a doting smile appeared on his beautiful face. He did not say anything else anymore. He just hugged her quietly.…At that moment, a blazing fire was burning in the castle.The castle was in chaos.Ewan and Alice were so frightened by the explosions that they quickly got out of the room.“Ewan, let’s leave quickly. They’ve already started to attack this place.” Alice’s face was as white as a sheet, and she held Ewan’s hand tightly.Ewan looked extremely sullen. “Damn it. They actually got away.’”Alice knew who he was talking about. As soon as the bombing started, they knew Sebastian and Tamara had already left safely. It was because they had left that Jeremiah lost the patience to negotiate with them and started to bomb them straight away.“Now is not the time to think about that,
Tamara directed her gaze towards Jeremiah, feeling astonished. However, a smile adorned her face as she expressed her sentiments, filled with a deep sense of appreciation. “You are a good brother.”Jeremiah glanced at her. “Actually, Seb has done plenty too.”“Huh? What did he do?” Tamara instantly became interested.Jeremiah was about to say something when he saw Sebastian walking over. He pursed his lips and said, “You can ask him yourself.” He raised his chin, signaling Tamara to look behind her.Sebastian happened to arrive when Tamara looked back. He stretched his arms out behind her and put her between himself and the railing. Tamara looked up at him. “Jeremiah said you’ve done plenty too. What have you done?”Sebastian looked at Jeremiah, then said with a frown. “What a blabbermouth.”Jeremiah smiled. He did not mind it at all.Tamara, however, became even more curious. “You said it yourself just now that you won’t meddle with Anthony and Helena’s relationship. Did you
“Time’s up.”Jeremiah said helplessly, “The time we’ve agreed upon is up. He couldn’t come back within the time I’ve set, so we’ll leave now.”Tamara pursed her lips and said nothing. She did not stop him either.A faint disappointment flashed across Tamara’s eyes. Did he really not come back? Did he really not complete the mission?Right that moment, she saw a glint on the shore.Tamara immediately grabbed the binoculars to look in that direction. She saw a familiar figure standing by the shore.She said in a surprised manner, “He completed the mission. He’s back!’Jeremiah took a glance through the binoculars as well. Then, he raised his brow and said, “He really came back right on the dot.”Then, a boat was sent to fetch him. Not long after that, the boat returned. Then, a familiar figure climbed up the ladder.Anthony was covered in blood. However, his expression was still just as cold. When he saw the few people standing on the deck, he glanced at them one by one. Finally
Both Sebastian and Tamara were speechless.Tamara glared at him in annoyance, then linked arms with Sebastian and went straight to the car.“Just drive. Ignore him!” Tamara said.Jerome sat in front and said with a smile, “Welcome home, Young Mr. and Mrs. Lynch.”It was heartwarming to hear that, so Tamara immediately smiled.They drove off.After learning they were back, members of the Moore family, Hugo, and Sandy, came to Cesterfield Villa.When Sebastian and Tamara entered the villa, they saw that the living room was packed with people.“Mommy, Daddy!” A few bright sounds could be heard coming from the group of people.Then, Thomas, Caleb, and Melanie came running toward Sebastian and Tamara.It had actually only been half a month, but it felt like a lifetime had passed. Tamara got a little teary. She crouched down and embraced the three children who came rushing to her.“Thomas, Caleb, Melly, I missed you guys so much,” said Tamara, giving all of them a kiss. Caleb wa
Jonathan could not stand her looking so apologetic. He waved and said, “Alright, enough. It’s fine as long as you know you’ve made a mistake. You just need to be careful next time. Cheryl and I are going to leave now. Take a good rest now that you’re back.”Cheryl stood up and left with Jonathan.Hugo smiled and quipped, “With all the thrill and excitement on your trip, your honeymoon has certainly surpassed the typical ones in terms of interest.”Tamara looked at Hugo. After some hesitations, she said, “You’re right. In general, Sebastian and I still had a lot of fun.”“Mm-hmm. As long as you had fun.” Hugo nodded.Sandy looked tense. She glanced at Tamara, then she looked at Sebastian and said in a gentle tone, “Seb, I know your trip this time was thrilling. Did you get hurt?”Sebastian said coldly, “No.”Sandy felt rejected, so she looked a little down. Nonetheless, she still said, “It’s good that you’re not hurt.”Hugo said, “Let’s leave and let the youngsters have a good c
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
