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
Helena looked a little hesitant, as if she had no idea how to begin.Tamara and Sebastian exchanged glances, and then Sebastian led Thomas, Caleb, and Melanie upstairs.Only the two girls were left in the living room.Tamara hugged a pillow and looked at Helena a little helplessly. "Go on then."After a prolonged pause, Helena mustered the courage to face Tamara and uttered, "I want to know who occupies Anthony's thoughts."Tamara was taken aback.She had never expected Helena to ask her that question. Furthermore, Anthony always wore a stoic and icy expression. He ought to have kept it hidden very well. How could someone as inattentive as Helena have noticed?Tamara only pondered for a brief moment before she said, "How did you know?"Helena put on a forced smile. "It's often said that love can make women foolish, but their intuition can be surprisingly accurate. I've noticed that he often gets lost in a daze while staring at me. It felt as though he was seeing someone else th
Helena's surprise was evident, but it quickly transformed into a smile. "Mm-hmm. I'm glad I know the truth now. Thank you, Tamara."Tamara responded with a hum and said nothing else.Sebastian was sitting on the pink carpet upstairs. He was hugging Melanie and playing with the building blocks with her.Meanwhile, Thomas and Caleb were sitting up straight on the side, and their gaze fixed miserably upon the building blocks. Thomas had an idea and spoke up, saying, "Daddy, since you want to stay here and play with the building blocks with Melanie, Caleb and I are going to look for Mommy.""No," said Sebastian in a deep voice. "Both of you either sit here like good boys or go back to your room to do your homework."Thomas was left speechless by the statement. In contrast, Caleb displayed his obedience. "I've already completed my homework, Daddy."Sebastian was caught off guard, and he glanced at Caleb. "In that case, work on some practice tests then."Caleb couldn't say anything.
Sebastian stared deeply at her. "I can't sleep without you."Tamara was rendered speechless by his words. With a peculiar expression on her face, she gazed at him before asking, "Are you unable to sleep, or is there something else on your mind?"Sebastian's sexy Adam's apple moved as he swallowed. Then he said, "What do you think?"Tamara did not immediately reply to him. She had no intention of saying it or even contemplating it. All she wanted was to sleep next to Melly!"I've already promised Melly. You can't make me break my promise, can you? Don't you love Melly the most?" said Tamara.Sebastian had no way to respond to that. Tamara grinned as she walked past him and went straight upstairs.Sebastian closed his eyes, but a faint smile appeared on his face very quickly.…Later that night, Tamara carefully rolled over in bed and glanced at Melanie, who was sound asleep. She could not help but stare at the pitch-black room and sigh softly.Why was she having trouble falli
