Both Margot and Tamara fell silent at this.Sebastian was sneering at Margot.Margot felt shivers down her spine.“That’s not what I meant, Young Mr. Lynch. I wish to have some girl talk with Tamara. Can you… give us some privacy?” Margot said tactfully.If Sebastian still refused to give Tamara some privacy, it would mean he really was a clingy bitch.The president of ST Corporation and the top dog of Londsville was being a clingy bitch? That would be breaking news!As expected, Sebastian’s face fell at this. He gave one last glare to Margot before taking his leave.Margot froze. She felt a murderous undertone behind the glare.Scary…Tamara waited until Sebastian left the room before retracting her gaze. She had to hold herself back from laughing. “How daring of you.”Margot was the only one who had the guts to speak with Sebastian in such a manner.Margot rubbed her neck. “Tammy, it felt as if I was about to have my head chopped off. I’m terrified!”Tamara composed herse
Anthony was not expecting Sebastian. His head snapped toward Tamara.Tamara gave him a smile to show that everything was fine.Anthony relaxed at this.Sebastian observed the interaction between the two, and his gaze turned cold.Anthony pushed open the door, and the sight of the tied-up man who attacked Tamara back at the manor entered their eyes.The house was big but undecorated, and the cement floor was dirty. And so was the man after being left on the floor.Sebastian’s face darkened when he saw the man. He gave the man a murderous glare.Tamara frowned at the man. A cold glint glimmered within her eyes.“He refuses to talk,” informed Anthony.The man immediately smiled mockingly. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. I have never met you, yet you decided to kidnap me. I won’t let you off!”The man still had a backbone despite the situation he was in.Tamara took out a box from her backpack. Sebastian cocked an eyebrow when he saw the box.Tamara took out her scente
Sebastian’s expression darkened. He shifted his gaze onto Tamara and found her with knitted eyebrows.Anthony glanced at Tamara and watched as she took the cure from her bag and passed it to him.Anthony put the cure under the man’s nose. Once the man had a whiff of it, his painful itches faded away.The man couldn’t help but sigh in relief.He observed Tamara. He never thought a fragile-looking thing like Tamara would be so ruthless.The torture was etched into his bones, and he was in constant pain.Something sinister flashed across his eyes before it disappeared without a trace.…The couple came out of the house. Tamara looked at Sebastian from the corner of her eyes. She never thought Yareli was part of this scheme as well.On second thought, Yareli hated Tamara. So it shouldn’t come as a surprise if she had a hand in this.Tamara’s only concern was Sebastian’s next course of action.Sebastian noticed her stare and said coldly, “I’ll make sure she won’t be able to hurt
Tamara took the statement and scanned through it. Her eyebrows knitted at the content.“The employee said they were bribed into letting the man in, but they refused to give us the name of the person who bribed them,” explained the guard.Sebastian’s face fell. “Have you checked their bank account for any transactions?”“We did, but we found nothing suspicious. They must have taken the bribery in cash,” said the guard.Sebastian snorted, “What a careful person.”The guard felt shivers going down his spine. He looked at the employee. “If you don’t spit it out, you might just lose your life.”The employee shut their eyes and refused to talk.“How stubborn.” Sebastian stared coldly at the employee.Tamara took out the scented tea from her back and passed it to the guard.Sebastian glanced at the item before his gaze landed on Tamara. “Why do you bring that everywhere?”Tamara signed, “It’s for self-defense.”Sebastian’s eyes darkened as he stared at Tamara’s smile.Tamara sucke
Sebastian had good intentions. He merely wanted to protect Tamara. However, Tamara disliked the idea of having someone watching over her.“There’s no need. I have someone who could protect me. I’ll be fine,” signed Tamara.Sebastian’s face fell. “You have someone to protect you? If that were true, the incident back at the manor wouldn’t have happened.”Tamara fell silent.That was true.Tamara bit her lips and gave an embarrassed look at Sebastian.Her eyes were pure, and she looked innocent.Sebastian furrowed his brows and turned to stare at the cliff below. “I really feel like throwing you off the cliff, Tamara. I really can’t catch a break with you around.”Tamara smiled when she heard this.That meant Sebastian was willing to fulfill her wish.Tamara came closer to Sebastian before going on her tip-toe to kiss Sebastian on the cheek.Once she got what she wanted, she turned to escape.However, Sebastian caught her by the arm and pulled her into his embrace. “A kiss on
“How dare you?” replied Jocelyn.Tamara could sense Jocelyn’s frustration just by reading her text.Tamara couldn’t help but furrow her eyebrows at this. She knew how spoiled Jocelyn was. She just didn’t think it was to this extent.Jocelyn was only 18 years old. Even so, she lived outstation for some time, so how did she end up like this?Tamara was still deep in thought, when a message popped in: “I don’t care. You are my aunt, so you have to take care of me. If you don’t, I’ll take you to court.”This little brat didn’t know when to back down.What a rude girl!Tamara replied: “It seemed that you’re dead set on leeching off of me, Jocelyn Simmons.”Jocelyn replied: “I’m merely telling the truth. I don’t want to be wasting any more time on you, Tamara. Hurry up and give me some money. I want a million dollars!”Tamara's frown deepened. She typed: “Why do you need a million dollars?”Jocelyn replied: “Just shut up and give me the money.”Tamara replied: “I’m not giving you
Eugenia’s face fell. “I wonder what Young Mrs. Lynch meant by that?”Tamara smiled faintly, but there was something intimidating behind her eyes. One look at her will send shivers down anyone’s spine. “What I meant was no one is perfect. Some people are just know-it-alls. You have some piano skills, while I know sign language. It’s normal to not be able to play the piano, just like how it’s normal to not know sign language. I hope I have said it in a way that Miss Cooper could understand?” Eugenia was offended. She never thought Tamara would take the chance to teach her a lesson.Who did Tamara think she was?“You jest, Young Mrs. Lynch. The reason why I can’t understand sign language is that I’m not mute. Unlike you, I can still communicate with others without signing my words,” mocked Eugenia.Tamara’s eyes turned cold. Eugenia continued, “Sorry, I take that back. Even if you knew sign language, you still wouldn’t be able to communicate with anyone, since everyone around is lik
Tamara hid her smile behind her hand. Ms. Thompson hurriedly handed the food over. “Here you go. Since you’re going there, you might as well have your dinner with Young Mr. Lynch.”After handing the food over, Ms. Thomspon practically ran away. It was as if she was afraid of what Tamara would say.Tamara touched her face. Did she look scary?…The driver was already waiting at the front door. Tamara changed out of her home clothes before getting in the car.The evening sky was dyed a beautiful pink. It looked like a scene straight out of a fairytale.When she arrived at ST Corporation, Tamara was greeted by the front desk lady in the lobby. “Hello, miss. Do you have an appointment?”This was the first time Tamara came to ST Corporation. No one here knew who she was.Tamara gave a faint smile. Just when she was about to pull her phone out, the door to the lift opened, and out came Jerome. “Young Mrs. Lynch, Young Mr. Lynch had asked me to bring you up.”Tamara nodded.Jerome t
