Benjamin immediately turned off the stove. The soup had boiled dry. Benjamin furrowed his brows. "I'll make you a new one."However, Margot muttered, "No, I want this one." She took a bowl and poured the noodles into it before sitting at the dining table.Although it didn't look great, the taste was still acceptable.Benjamin watched her eat with a serious expression, and his heart raced. A strange feeling filled his chest, and he wished he could hold her close and become one with her.Margot didn't notice his change in mood. After finishing the bowl of noodles, she wiped her mouth contentedly and looked up at him. It was then she saw his complicated expression. "What's wrong?"Benjamin looked at her seriously. "Why are you just coming of age?"Margot paused before she burst into laughter at his words. What kind of question was that? Did he think she came of age too late?Could she tell him that although she had just officially come of age, she was actually a 28-year-old
Tamara turned to look at Joseph. "Joseph, this is my friend, Margot.""Hello." Joseph extended his hand toward Margot.Margot felt a mix of emotions but tried to maintain a pleasant demeanor. She shook his hand. "Hello."Tamara piped up, "Let's go in and have lunch."Margot nodded. "Sure."She withdrew her gaze, feeling a complex mix of emotions. She hadn't expected to meet Joseph so soon. Although she had prepared herself, it still felt somewhat unexpected.In her previous life, Joseph treated her well and did a lot for her. However, there were some things she couldn't give him because she had already given them to Benjamin. In this lifetime, Joseph was a stranger to her. She just hoped that things wouldn't happen like they had in her previous life.The three of them sat down and began ordering. Margot didn't ask Tamara about her dreams, knowing that it wouldn't be appropriate with Joseph present.Tamara looked at Margot and asked, "You seem a bit off."Margot smiled faintl
Tamara and Margot exchanged a glance, both detecting a hint of helplessness and amusement in each other's eyes. Joseph appeared quite serious. And when he realized they weren't taking his words seriously, he furrowed his brows. He asserted, "I'm serious. Tammy is our precious little sister. We don't want her to marry too early."Tamara quickly interjected, "Oh, come on. I'm still young. Marriage is far off in the future. Can't we talk about something else?"Joseph didn't press the matter further upon seeing how uncomfortable she was.Margot glanced at Tamara. She remembered the age when Tamara and Sebastian got married. Indeed, it was still far off in the future. If they followed Joseph's standards, then Tamara had definitely gotten married too young in her previous life. Not only that, but she had also been too young to bear children.Margot wondered how things would unfold in this life. It seemed like the past would repeat itself since both Tamara and Sebastian started havi
Margot remained composed. "I only found out about it because Tammy told me about your experiences." She placed the teacup on the table and turned to Sebastian. "You have an interesting story. I have never heard of anything similar before."Sebastian stared at her for a few seconds before he averted his gaze. He was trying to gauge how much she knew.Margot was aware of this, so she played dumb. She had no intention of revealing the fact that she had been reincarnated. She had even lied to Benjamin and said it all to her in the form of a dream. Even if Benjamin had said something to Sebastian, it wouldn't expose the fact that she had been reincarnated.Moreover, talking about dreams, she believed that Sebastian would probably resonate with her since he was also trapped in a dream.Margot composed herself and turned to Tamara. "You haven't told me what you dreamt about this time."Tamara pursed her lips. "I dreamt that I got married to Mr. Lynch ..."She slowly recounted her dr
Upon hearing this, Tamara immediately sighed in relief. She placed her teacup down gently and whispered, "Have you thought of any way to stop these dreams from continuing?"Sebastian furrowed his brows and shook his head. "No."One mysterious event after another had occurred. They both saw the white light simultaneously and started having the same dream. And now Margot was telling them that these might be their past experiences, serving as a means to remind them in this lifetime. However, how did these past events relate to their current lives? They both wanted to live their own lives and didn't want to repeat the past.Sebastian and Tamara shared the same sentiment, especially for someone as proud as Sebastian. He would never accept being manipulated by fate.Disappointment flashed in Tamara's eyes, and she sighed softly, "It seems that we'll have to continue having these dreams."Sebastian hummed coldly.The room fell into an awkward silence.Tamara sensed the weird atmo
Tamara was struck by realization. "You're right."Margot nodded. "So, don't take these dreams too seriously. If you don't want to repeat your past lives, it's better to keep your distance from Sebastian."What more could she say? Both of them didn't want to rekindle their past relationships. She couldn't do much to change their minds.Tamara nodded. "Alright! That's the plan!""By the way, what took you so long earlier?" Tamara looked at her in confusion.Margot shrugged. "I saw Benjamin.""He came here without inviting you?" Tamara was stunned.Margot explained, "He was with a woman in another private room. I don't know what they were talking about, but I didn't want to interrupt."Tamara stared at her and didn't know how to respond.Margot, however, remained calm. "There must be a reason for their meeting. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left school. Come on, I'll take you home."Tamara sighed. "I suddenly envy your level of trust."Margot gave a bitter smile. "What if this tr
Alex was taken aback. Before she could question him further, Jacob had already left the greenhouse.Tamara was standing not far away. She lowered her head and greeted, "Dad."Jacob remained silent and gave her a meaningful look before walking past her.Tamara immediately entered the greenhouse. Seeing that Alex was in a daze, she asked, "Mom, what did Dad say to you?"Alex heard her voice and immediately came back to her senses. She wore a gentle expression once again. "Nothing much. He just asked if I wanted to go on a business trip with him."Tamara asked, "Are you going with him?"Alex shook her head. "No, business trips are boring. I'd rather stay at home with you."Tamara smiled faintly. "Mom, let's go to Clacton while Dad is away."Alex was surprised. "Why do you want to go to Clacton?"Tamara answered, "Grandma and Uncle Jon can't stay in Londsville for long. And you haven't been home for a while. I think Grandma would want you to visit."Alex's eyes flickered. "I'll c
Tamara remained silent for a moment. "What you said is also very possible. Let's wait and see. She would probably take action if she found out the truth.""Alright, let's not think about it for now." Margot slumped onto the sofa.Tamara looked at her. "Why do you look so tired?"Margot squinted her eyes. "I don't know. I'm feeling really exhausted right now. I think I'll take a nap.""Okay, go to bed then." Tamara nodded.Margot got up and lay on the bed, grabbing a large rabbit plushie and hugging it close. She soon fell asleep.Tamara didn't disturb her and sat quietly at the desk, writing something down....Margot hadn't had a nightmare in a long time, and it was even rarer for it to be a vivid one.She saw Benjamin lying in her arms again.She cried heart-wrenchingly, feeling as if her heart was being torn apart.But she had been reborn, hadn't she? Why was she having such dreams? And why were they so vivid? Did she have to go through it all over again?No!She
