"Sebastian! Where are you touching me?" hissed Tamara."You…stop it…" Her brows furrowed."Sebastian! That's cheating!" Tamara was getting annoyed by the second. But to Sebastian, she sounded like she was whining more than anything.Sebastian continued with his actions. He stated calmly, "I'm just giving you a massage. How could you call it a massage if I don't take care of every inch of you?"Tamara's face was as red as a tomato. She wanted to turn around, but the man pushed her further into the mattress. She was stuck."Wait…Sebastian, you jerk!" whined Tamara weakly.Sebastian's breath quickened. He leaned down and blew against her ears. "Do you admit defeat?""Not a chance!" Tamara gritted her teeth. She closed her eyes and tensed her entire body.Sebastian was amused at her act of defiance. He chuckled, "Our dear Tammy sure is resilient. I wonder if I should go harder?"Tamara gasped and bit her lips.But Sebastian had other plans. He reached down to force her lips apart
Tamara let out a helpless sigh. "But when it comes down to it, you only broke up with him because of what I said."Helena observed Tamara silently. She suddenly piped up, "Have you forgiven him, Tamara?"Tamara was taken aback. She mumbled faintly, "No, I will never forgive him."Helena disagreed, "Judging from your expression, you seem kind of sad knowing that I broke up with him."Tamara pondered for a moment and replied, "I believe that it's rare to find someone you truly love. We should always treasure and appreciate such individuals when they enter our lives."Helena chuckled, "You're right, but I'm also an oddball. If I find out the person I like has someone else on their mind, my feelings fade away instantly.""Haha. Then I'll leave you to it," nodded Tamara."But that doesn't mean I'm not affected by it," mumbled Helena. She lowered her gaze. "Tamara, I really did like him. I even imagined a future with him in it. I also knew Jerry was the one who sent him out to rescue
Helena fell silent.She narrowed her eyes suspiciously at Tamara and suddenly chirped, "Are you saying that because you want me to spend more time with your kids, or are you just trying to get rid of me?"It was Tamara's turn to fall silent.Sebastian threw Helena a cold glance. "Are you going or not?""I'm going! Look! This is me leaving!" Helena immediately jumped up from her seat at Sebastian's words. She didn't even finish her drink and was already halfway out of the house.She looked like a prisoner escaping from her executioner.Tamara sighed helplessly.Sebastian noticed Tamara was deep in thought. He asked, "What's wrong?"Tamara turned to him and mumbled, "Helena and Anthony broke up.""Okay. And?" Sebastian was indifferent to the news.Tamara clicked her tongue at Sebastian's lack of reaction. "And I think it's my fault. I shouldn't have said anything."Sebastian furrowed his brows at her. "What does this have anything to do with you?"Tamara paused. "It doesn't?"
Tamara turned to Melanie, perplexed. "Did you really say that, Melly?"Melanie blinked up at Tamara innocently and answered, "I was just joking around."Thomas chirped up again, "Mhm. When we were having lunch, Melly said she didn't want to eat the food there because Mommy didn't cook them. Then, the new kids cried again."Tamara sighed deeply.Melanie was still giving Tamara an innocent look. "But I was just telling the truth! The food at the kindergarten doesn't taste as nice as the food Mommy cooks."Thomas continued grimly, "And when school was over, Melly told the new kids their parents would abandon them at the kindergarten again tomorrow."Melanie pouted.She suddenly turned to Thomas and laughed. "Are you okay, Thomas?"Thomas gave his sister a blank look.Tamara found it strange and unsettling. She suddenly remembered Melanie had been watching some weird stuff lately. Why else would a cute kid like Melanie be saying all those harsh words?Tamara held Melanie's hand a
Helena stopped herself from continuing when she saw the darkening look on Tamara's face. She quickly changed her words. "Maybe they learned it from somewhere else. Come on now, Tamara. Don't worry too much. They're still kids. They didn't know any better."Tamara sighed and turned to Sebastian. "Do you also think Thomas was the one who said it?"Sebastian didn't deny it.Tamara sprang up and hissed, "Thomas might be a mischievous child, but he would never say such a thing!"With that, Tamara stomped upstairs.Helena froze in her spot. After a moment of silence, she spoke up hesitantly, "Seb, is Tamara angry at me?"Sebastian stood up and said to her, "You should leave."Helena was flabbergasted as she intended to stay for dinner. The corners of Helena's lips twitched, and she silently left the place.Upstairs.Tamara went straight to the balcony. She stared at the scenery in front of her coldly.Sebastian walked over and observed, "Are you angry?"Tamara muttered faintly,
"What brings you here, Thomas?" smiled Tamara.Thomas looked up at his mother, "Why didn't you come down for dinner, Mommy?"Tamara took his hand and brought him inside. She pulled him to the balcony and smiled warmly at him. "I'm sure this isn't why you came, right Thomas?"Thomas tensed up. He couldn't bring himself to meet his mother's gaze. He muttered faintly, "I'm sorry, Mommy."Tamara was surprised. "Why are you apologizing?"Thomas lowered his gaze. "I was the one who said those mean things to the new kids, but I blamed it on Melly instead."Tamara's breath hitched in her throat. Nonetheless, her smile remained fixed on her son. "Why did you do that?"Thomas looked up and met his mother's gaze. He was still hesitant. "Mommy, I…"Tamara gave his hand a light squeeze. She was patient and gentle with him. "Looks like little Thomas is growing up now. He is even keeping secrets from Mommy."Thomas giggled. "I was just wondering how Daddy would react if Melly were the one wh
"Is that all?" muttered Sebastian coldly.Tamara sneered at him, "Sebastian Lynch! Do you treat our kids differently?"This took Sebastian aback. He furrowed his brows at her. "Me? Treat them differently?""Yes! I know you like our daughter a whole lot more and are biased toward her. That's fine. I can let that slide. But why are you treating our sons differently?" Tamara was done beating around the bush.She was done with the mind games. She wanted to know the truth.Tamara firmly believed that there was a solution to every problem.If she were to keep it to herself any longer, she might just go insane.Sebastian finally knew why Tamara was furious. He said faintly, "Do you think I treat Thomas and Caleb differently?"Tamara stared at him. "Ask yourself the question. I have never seen you interact with them."Sebastian stood up and came to stand in front of Tamara. "Did Thomas say something to you?"Tamara narrowed her eyes cruelly at him. "Even if he didn't, I would still f
There was a hint of helplessness in Sebastian's eyes. When he noticed Tamara was slowly calming down, he took her hand and guided her to the couch."I know you were the one who raised Thomas, and you love him dearly. But some of his actions are unforgivable. Let's take today for example. Did he go to you and tell you the truth?" started Sebastian.Tamara pursed her lips. "He did."Sebastian chuckled, "He knows how to solve the problem but still threw me under the bus."Tamara tilted her head at him. "What do you mean?"Sebastian turned to her. "At the end of the day, this all started because of me. So leave this to me, okay?"Tamara narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "How are you planning to solve this?""I said before I've been trying to find a better way to interact with him, didn't I? Well, I think I just did," grinned Sebastian.This only further confused Tamara. "You did?""Yes." Sebastian held her hand. "So, leave this to me. I won't let you down."A thought suddenly came
