However, Anthony said, "I'll protect Ms. Zimmerman once Mrs. Simmons agrees."With that, he turned and walked away.Tamara was left stunned. She looked at Margot and hesitated before saying, "He wasn't like this before."Margot had her own suspicion. She remained silent for a moment. "Tammy, how old is your niece now?"Tamara tilted her head. "She's 12 years old. Why do you ask?""That pervert," Margot muttered to herself. Margot couldn't help but sneer at Anthony. "It's nothing. It's just that there's not a single nice soul in your brother's family. Be careful."Tamara sat down beside her. "There's something I want to talk to you about.""Go ahead." Margot looked at her expectantly.Tamara, however, didn't know how to start. She blushed slightly.Seeing Tamara's strange expression, Margot couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Did you get caught watching some adult movies?"Tamara gave her a blank look. "Something like that. But I wasn't caught."It wasn't exactly an adult
Alex was surprised by Tamara's request. "What happened to her?"Tamara explained Margot's situation to Alex with a worried look. "Mom, Margot is my best friend. I don't want anything bad to happen to her."Alex's expression remained gentle as she nodded. "Alright, I can arrange for another bodyguard to protect you."Tamara smiled. "Mom, I want to learn martial arts. It's better to learn it myself than to rely on others."Alex mirrored her smile. "My Tammy is all grown up."Tamara blushed slightly. "I'm already 18 years old. Of course, I've grown up."Alex nodded with a smile. "Alright, I'll arrange for your martial arts lessons. But remember, you can't give up once you start learning.""I won't." Tamara firmly nodded.She headed upstairs, but Anthony blocked her path.Tamara looked at him in confusion. "What's wrong?"Anthony remained silent for a moment. "Miss, why are you giving me away to someone else?"He appeared to be of a similar age to Tamara. Despite his impassive c
Tamara nodded in understanding. "I see."Margot added, "However, not looking into it now doesn't mean I won't get to the bottom of it in the future. I'm someone who holds grudges."Tamara nodded again. "Are you staying for dinner tonight?""No, Benjamin is coming to pick me up." Margot had a sweet smile on her face.Tamara nodded. "Alright."Margot suddenly remembered what she had said earlier and couldn't help asking, "Tamara, aren't you curious about our past lives? And has Sebastian contacted you?"Having experienced the same thing, she figured Sebastian might contact Tamara.Tamara's face immediately turned red. "Honestly, I am curious too. But I won't force it. I'll go with the flow.""It hasn't been that long, and you've already thought it through?" Margot looked at her in surprise.Tamara shrugged. "Isn't that what you said? No matter how much we struggle, it won't change anything. What if this is my destiny?"She had seen the white light and had the same dream. Perhap
"What's wrong?" Margot asked in confusion.Benjamin held her tightly as if making sure that this wasn't a dream. After a while, he finally spoke, "Why didn't you tell me about what happened this afternoon?"Just a moment ago, he had asked about Margot, and Dylan had told him about what happened earlier. He felt his heart sink, wanting nothing more than to meet with Margot immediately. This was a serious matter! Why didn't she tell him about it? Was he that unreliable to her?Margot understood immediately. "I did want to tell you. But when I arrived here, I was so exhausted that I only decided to tell you after waking up. But I ended up sleeping the whole afternoon."She spoke casually, "As you can see, I'm perfectly fine. My gut feelings are never wrong. I felt something was wrong when I got in the car and immediately got off."She even did a twirl in front of Benjamin to prove her point.However, Benjamin was furious. His expression grew grim, and he gave Margot a stern look.
Margot couldn't help but feel sorry for Benjamin. However, Benjamin shrugged. "I have no interest in the Inkling Corporation. If they push me too far, I won't mind going all out against them."Margot smiled slightly at this. "Okay, I'll support you. I'll take care of you if you go broke."Benjamin glanced at her, and a wicked smile appeared on his handsome face. "You'll take care of me?"Margot huffed proudly. "Yes, I'll take care of you. Don't look down on me. I swear I'll become rich in just a few months!"Benjamin chuckled. "Alright, I'll remember that."The atmosphere inside the car lightened a bit, but their hearts were still heavy. Going all out and resorting to desperate measures was not their first choice. They wouldn't resort to such tactics unless necessary. Benjamin had to make a final gamble. Otherwise, if the people from the Inkling family accepted Lance, they would kick Benjamin out of the family, putting his safety at risk.Margot resolved to mature quickly so
Benjamin smirked. "I'm satisfied just by watching you eat."Margot paused. "Alright, watch all you want"With that, she didn't pay any more attention to Benjamin and started eating heartily.Benjamin's smile faded. He really wasn't hungry. After the standoff at the Inkling manor in the afternoon and hearing about her almost getting hurt, he had lost his appetite.After a while, Margot finished eating. She wiped her mouth with a tissue and looked at him. "You're not eating at all?"Benjamin hummed and took out a tissue. He leaned closer, carefully wiping the corner of her mouth where she had missed.Margot blinked and quickly saw through his thoughts. However, she decided to keep quiet about it. "Let's go then.""Okay." Benjamin nodded and held her hand. They settled the bill and left the restaurant. Night had fallen, and the city lights illuminated the surroundings.Benjamin suddenly piped up, "Why don't you move in with me?""What?" Margot was stunned. "Isn't that a little to
Benjamin's smile froze as he looked at Margot's provocative expression. He wanted to prove to her that he was up to the challenge. However, he could tell that this was her way of provoking him.He grabbed her chin and planted a firm kiss on her lips. "Behave yourself."Margot smiled and didn't press the matter further. He had his principles, and she wouldn't force him. Well, she would just have to use other tactics.They drove to the Windsong Mansion. As soon as they entered the house, Benjamin immediately hugged Margot.Benjamin's breath tickled her ear, and his voice sounded husky. "Margot, I need to punish you for being naughty."Margot leaned into his embrace, feeling the warmth of his breath on her ear. Her body trembled slightly as electricity coursed through her veins. Her ears turned red, and she couldn't help but ask, "How are you going to punish me?"Benjamin trailed kisses down her neck. His kisses were light, and he couldn't help but smile when he saw her increasing
The night grew. Back at the Simmons' residence, Tamara had gone to bed early. She was eager to see if she would have the same dream again tonight.As she fell into a deep sleep, she started dreaming once more. This time, the dream seemed normal. But she could never be more wrong. In the dream, Sebastian was choking her and demanding to know why she had plotted against him. However, she couldn't utter a word as her dream self was still unable to speak.Next, Quentin entered the scene with some paparazzi, and they threatened Sebastian. Tamara watched this dream sequence with widened eyes. The dream felt so vivid, like a TV drama. Still, that didn't feel right. It felt more like her past life's experience!Margot's words flashed across her mind and only further confirmed her suspicion. She was indeed dreaming of her past life! But why? What had gone wrong? Tamara remembered the bright white light she saw while watching the meteor shower. She pursed her lips.The dream contin
