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
Coral chuckled, casting a glance at the departing luxurious car. She snorted, "Tamara, who's that bastard you're meeting this early in the morning? He even came to our house. Aren't you afraid your parents will see you?"Tamara looked at her coldly. "Are you from the medieval age, Coral? Is standing with a man considered a date? Then what about you? You always have a group of bodyguards following you around. Should I assume you're secretly having an affair behind my brother's back?"Coral's face darkened. "What nonsense are you talking about?""And what nonsense are YOU talking about?" Tamara retorted.Coral's face turned even uglier. She hadn't expected this mute girl to become so sharp-tongued once she could speak! Thinking about Alex's bias toward Tamara, Coral didn't dare to push her luck further. She snorted coldly and left.Tamara watched her depart, thinking about the scenes from her dreams. It was just as Margot had described. When trouble arose at home, Quentin was ea
Benjamin walked over and pushed Margot back into the bathroom. "You should freshen up first. I'll wait for you outside."Margot's heart suddenly raced. She quickly washed her face and came out to find Benjamin about to leave. She immediately reached out and grabbed his hand. "Listen to me."Benjamin suddenly smiled. "Did you dream about our future again?"Margot froze at his words.Benjamin ruffled her hair. "Don't worry. Didn't you tell me about this before? I believe you."How could she forget? She had used her dreams as an excuse to tell him that she knew about their future. She had thought she had given herself away just now.Margot breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. "Yes, I did dream about it. I dreamt that we would live a happy life together in the future."But that happiness wouldn't last long and was as short-lived as a dream.Benjamin's smile deepened. "Yes, we will be. I have to go to school now. I'll be late if I don't leave.""Alright." Margot let go of him and
Tamara said, "Just plain water for me.""A cup of black coffee," Sebastian said coldly."Alright, please wait a moment." The waiter left.Sebastian's eyes were fixed on Tamara. Seeing her uneasy demeanor, he asked coldly, "What did you dream about?"Tamara hesitated at his words. Then, the tips of her ears turned red, and she found it difficult to talk about the dream. Sebastian noticed her embarrassment and furrowed his brows. "This is quite strange, and it's important to us. I've analyzed it a bit. Our dreams all started from seeing that white light. The dream on the first night ..."He paused for a moment before continuing, "Something happened between us. But I feel like it wasn't the current us. It was as if it was our future selves."Tamara blinked, surprised by how casually he brought it up. How could he say it so calmly?She nodded. "Yes, it should be from the future. I couldn't speak yet.""I see," Sebastian responded. "As for the dream on the second night. It should
Tamara was caught off guard. She turned to him and asked, "What's wrong?"Sebastian's eyes were fixed on her. "Regarding the dreams, what if it is as you said?"Tamara hesitated before she answered truthfully, "I don't know."She really didn't know. If those dreams did come true, what then? She was clueless about the future.Sebastian withdrew his gaze. "Goodbye."Tamara fell silent, thinking, "What an aloof man."Tamara opened the door and left. Her meeting with Sebastian was only to confirm if their dreams were the same. They couldn't prove anything else, so they could only take it one step at a time.…Downstairs, at a particular location, Margot and Victoria sat facing each other.Margot took a sip of the bitter coffee and couldn't help but furrowed her brows. Even though she had lived two lifetimes, she still couldn't get used to this stuff.Coffee had an awful taste. On the other hand, Victoria elegantly sipped her coffee and waved the waiter over. "Could you please
