Coral clenched her fists tightly. That bitch! How dare Tamara warn her? Who did Tamara think she was? She used to be mute and was always careful and submissive. However, Tamara transformed into a different person after she gained her voice. Coral could hardly recognize her anymore. Who had given her the confidence to be so arrogant?Coral was furious and wanted nothing more than to tear Tamara apart. If it weren't for Tamara, she would still be the highly esteemed Mrs. Moore!Coral's face twisted in anger. She would not let Tamara off that easily!When Coral returned to her room, she picked up her phone and made a call. "Hey, I need you to do something for me ..."Before she could finish her sentence, a hand suddenly reached over and snatched her phone, hanging up the call.Coral turned in surprise and saw Jocelyn standing by her side. Her face had an air of maturity that went beyond her age."Mom, are you planning to fuck around?" Jocelyn asked.Coral's expression turned u
Tamara suddenly wanted to turn back. But when she thought about her decision, she clenched her teeth and drove to Skarrowlilt Grove. The car traveled down a road that felt incredibly familiar to her, as if she had walked this path countless times before. Even the trees on both sides of the road were familiar to her. This was newly built. Yet, in her dreams, this place had held countless memories throughout the years.Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of a black gate.Tamara sat in the car and observed the courtyard. It was as if something had clicked in her brain, and the memories she had forgotten began to resurface, becoming more vivid by the second. This villa's courtyard seemed to be a key to her memory. Seeing the familiar scenes brought back the pain no matter how much she resisted.Tamara's brows furrowed, and she pushed open the car door after parking. She stood before the large gate, staring at the scenery inside the courtyard. Looking at the code panel,
However, Sebastian didn't look at her. He held her hand and led her to a side of the living room, pushing open the glass door that led to the garden. The garden featured a stone pathway and expansive lawns near the manor. A little further on, they arrived at a garden with an arched entrance adorned with roses. Tamara's eyes suddenly welled up with emotion. She quickly lowered her gaze and asked, "Where are you taking me?" She had a hunch even as she asked.Sebastian shrugged. "To the swing." Tamara hurriedly blinked, suppressing the sour feelings that threatened to rise.She stood still and looked at his back. "I don't want to go to the swing right now."Sebastian turned to look at her. His handsome face showed a gentle expression as he gazed at her. He nodded. "Alright, then, what would you like to do? Would you like to see the flowers in the greenhouse? I've grown many of the ones you like, and they're in full bloom."Tamara restrained herself. "Let's go back inside first
"Alright." Sebastian readily agreed and closed the door. "Are you hungry?"Tamara shook her head.Sebastian sighed. "Then come with me to the study.""Okay." Tamara nodded and followed him into the study.Sebastian didn't immediately talk to her about the dream. Instead, he took out his phone and made a call. He spoke into the receiver, "Bring up two yogurts."Tamara fell silent.In no time, Ms. Thompson brought up two yogurts and placed them on the table with a smile. Even after the door to the study closed, Tamara didn't look at the yogurt. She calmly looked at Sebastian and asked, "Have you thought about the dream during this period?"Sebastian nodded. "I have, but it didn't help."Tamara nodded. Indeed, if they could solve this just by pondering over it, they wouldn't be in this conflict now. She hesitated for a moment. "If it's really as you've said, then let's try it tonight."Sebastian suddenly turned to her with a weird glint in his eyes. His voice was hoarse as he a
A gentle breeze rustled the white curtains, causing them to sway gently. Papers on the dark wooden desk scattered to the floor as two figures entangled, sharing a passionate kiss. After that … Tamara quickly closed her eyes, refusing to let her mind wander in that direction. Right now, she wanted nothing more than to leave this place. Not for any other reason but because this manor brought forth many unsavory scenes.Sebastian looked at her in amusement. Seeing her reaction, he seemed to recall something, and his eyes darkened suddenly.Tamara stood up abruptly. "I can agree with you, but we must change the location. I don't want to be here."Sebastian stared at her. "Alright."She was also willing to make the effort to avoid accidentally triggering any memories. A hint of bitterness washed over him, but Sebastian quickly suppressed those emotions.Tamara headed toward the door.Sebastian stood up and followed her. He asked calmly, "So, are we now officially a couple?"He
Tamara felt speechless.Why did she park the car here? The memory of her first meeting with Sebastian flashed in her mind. There was no foreplay before they got rough and rowdy. It left an impression on her. Even now, she could faintly sense the lingering pain when she recalled it.Just then, a deep voice suddenly sounded next to her. "Sorry."Tamara wished she could find a hole to hide in. Was it the time to be discussing this? Shouldn't they just skip this? Why did he feel the need to apologize so seriously? Did he think she wouldn't feel embarrassed?Sebastian gazed at her, and his voice was low and pleasant. "Regardless of whether that really happened or not, I apologize for my recklessness. I was drugged and had never been in a relationship, so I didn't know how to be gentle and considerate ...""Stop!" Tamara immediately held up her hand to stop him."That was a dream, and it has nothing to do with the current me." Tamara put on a calm façade.Sebastian stared at her int
In the end, Tamara couldn't help but think that she should treat it as a pleasant experience. After all, her previous experiences had shown that it was pretty enjoyable.After mentally preparing herself, she opened the bathroom door and saw Sebastian standing on the balcony, talking on the phone.Tamara adjusted her breathing and wrapped her bathrobe tighter around her. Noticing that her long hair was damp, she went to find a hairdryer.Sebastian heard the sound and turned to look at her. An urgent voice sounded from the phone. "Seb, where are you? I heard that you've been getting close to the mute girl from the Simmons family recently. I'm warning you, you'd better stay away from her. The Lynch family will never accept a mute!"Sebastian's eyes were filled with a chilling, murderous intent. "You'd better take care of yourself first. If you dare interfere in my affairs, I'll make sure you won't get off easily!"With that, he hung up the phone.Tamara was blow-drying her hair when
"Let go!" Tamara's tone grew firm. After the last night's dream, she had completely merged with the dream version of herself, and those emotions were now surging within her.She had just given birth to three children when she saw the divorce agreement. Those were the children they had yearned for, but alongside the joy, despair also arrived.Why did he want a divorce? Why did he divorce her when she needed him the most?Tamara couldn't understand, nor did she want to. At that moment, she didn't want to see Sebastian at all.Seeing her like this, Sebastian slowly released her wrist. When he saw she was about to leave the bed, he hurriedly said, "Let me explain, Tammy. The me in the dream didn't have the strength to defy Clacton's Custry family. "They threatened me. If I didn't go back with them, they would harm you. I couldn't stand by and watch you get hurt, so I agreed."The dream stopped with him leaving with the Custry family.He didn't know where Tamara's dream ended, but
The bed was also adorned in striking white. Margot's bridal gown gradually slipped off, and her hair spread out behind her on the bed. Her smooth skin shone beneath the dazzling light.Benjamin stared at her. "Margot, you have to spend the rest of your life making up for your lies.""Okay," Margot agreed without hesitation.The temperature in the room rose, and the night had just begun.It was as Tamara said. Because of their tragic past, the heavens decided to bless them in this life. They lived happily ever after from that day onward.Benjamin successfully inherited the Inkling Corporation. A year later, Margot gave birth to a daughter. She resembled Benjamin and was as beautiful as a doll.Their little girl grew up in a loving family, and the love between Margot and Benjamin only grew with time. They developed Nammu Bay, transforming it into a popular tourist destination.Another year passed, and Tamara and Sebastian got married. The wedding was almost identical to the one fr
The newlywed walked into the wedding hall hand in hand.The wedding hall was also well-decorated. Shane, Trevor, Jacob, and Alex sat in the front row.The host congratulated the couple, and after the couple exchanged rings, the crowd erupted in cheers. The wedding went past quickly. And when Margot was led to her bridal room, she was still very much in a daze.Because of Margot's condition, she had to leave early and let Benjamin deal with the guests alone.As time passed, Margot grew more and more anxious. But she didn't dare move a muscle. Benjamin had told her to keep the veil on and wait for him.Margot had never been this obedient before. But she had no choice. Disobeying wouldn't do. What if her husband ran away?Just then, the door opened. Margot's heart tightened, and she immediately went tense in anticipation.A faint stench of alcohol wafted over, and she saw his shoes from under the veil.He was standing before her but made no move to greet her.Margot couldn't help
When the others saw Benjamin standing still in a daze, they all asked in confusion, "What's going on? Why did he stop?""What is he thinking about?""Did he lose his mind because he was too excited to meet his bride?"Someone made a joke, and others burst into laughter.Downstairs, Sebastian exchanged looks with Tamara, who was upstairs. His gaze returned to Benjamin.The wedding had been going on smoothly. But it seemed that Benjamin's memories might be their biggest challenge.Now that Benjamin had recovered his memories, what would he do next?However, Benjamin quickly came back to his senses. He walked forward calmly until he reached the door. As his gaze swept over Tamara and Natasha, a small smile appeared on his face.Tamara piped up, "Mr. Inkling, Nat and I had planned to set up some challenges for you. However, considering the hardships you and Margot have gone through, those challenges seem trivial in front of you. So, I thought, why not give you a clear path that led
"Shit! Isn't that too ruthless?""Leave it to the four Moore brothers to pull this trick!""Stop standing around and start drinking!"Benjamin watched on without any change in expression. He turned to the last row of men and smiled. "I'll leave the first round to you."Those men were all eager to try. They rolled up their sleeves and loosened their ties, their eyes gleaming with excitement.Benjamin made room for them, and they eagerly stepped forward. They picked up the glasses and downed them in one gulp."Let's go!" The cheers that erupted motivated them further. But despite their fierce drinking, they were no match for the abundant alcohol. When they looked up, they found that they were only halfway through. Some of them were already feeling tipsy!Sunlight spilled onto the drinks. A gentle breeze caused ripples on the liquid, resembling scattered stars.The men noticed the entrance was within arm's reach, and they gritted their teeth to endure the torture.Harris was th
The morning sunlight bathed the earth, casting a brilliant glow on every corner of Simmons Residence. Everyone's faces were filled with smiles. In the room, the styling team was already in position. They first helped Margot into the wedding gown and began styling her hair.Although Margot never decided on her bridal makeup, she did try each style. To surprise her, Benjamin accompanied her to try out the bridal makeup but kept the final choice from her.Now, dressed in the beautiful wedding gown, Margot remembered the makeup styles she had tried before, and a smile graced her face. Tamara and Natasha also changed into their bridesmaid dresses. The makeup artist was working on them when Alex walked in with a gentle smile. "Have you done your preparation for the challenges?"Tamara gave a thumbs up. "Don't worry, Mom. I won't let them take your daughter away easily."Alex giggled. "That won't do. We have to see if Margot agrees."Margot immediately exclaimed, "I'm all in favor!"
"You're right!" Tamara exclaimed, and the three women chatted for a while before gradually falling asleep.In the Inkling Manor, lights were on, and a festive atmosphere filled every corner. Wealthy young men who knew Benjamin gathered there, celebrating the night.A few people sat on the couch by the pool. There were various drinks on the table. Jack picked up a bottle and praised, "This is a good wine. It's at least 30 years old! You're going all out, Mr. Inkling."Benjamin's face carried a contented smile. "It's my big day, so let's all have a good time together."Jack gave him a thumbs up. "You're very generous, Mr. Inkling."The others laughed along.Benjamin turned to Sebastian and suddenly smiled. "Why are you so calm? When we go over tomorrow, I wonder what challenges Tamara has for you."Sebastian calmly muttered, "She'll only cause trouble for you."Benjamin cocked an eyebrow. "You're quite confident. I can't wait to see you eat your words tomorrow."Sebastian shrugg
Margot responded, "Yes, but I believe he will recover his memory soon."Joseph chuckled. "It doesn't matter if he does recover his memory. He loves you either way."A sweet smile appeared on Margot's face.He was right. Benjamin loved her with or without his memories. Nothing could ever change that.Joseph gazed at Margot for a while before shifting his gaze away. He turned to the night sky outside. "It seems that tonight will be a special one."Margot looked at him. "Do you have any plans for the future, Joseph?"Joseph smiled. "I will work for Moore Corporation. After all, I'm the only one in our family who studied business."Margot's eyes flickered. Joseph's life was still the same as in her past life. He would still manage Moore Corporation while the other brothers shine in their respective fields."That's great! I'll have a powerful backer now. I can just mention your name if someone bullies me. As the cousin of the Moore Corporation's president, no one would dare lay thei
Margot reached out to touch the wedding gown, feeling the expensive fabric. Every stitch and thread carried Benjamin's love for her. She looked up at Tamara. "I'm scared, Tammy."Tamara seemed to know what she was afraid of and hugged her close. "Don't be. This is real. It's really happening.Tears welled up in Margot's eyes. Tamara understood her the best. She feared this was just a dream, an illusion she would wake up from. There was no rebirth, cat-and-mouse games, or Nammu Bay destruction. Everything was just a trick her mind had made up.After all this time, Margot finally felt fear.She held onto Tamara tightly. Even when tears streamed down, Margot didn't dare to blink, afraid that she would return to a cold room if she did, a world without him.Tamara gently stroked her back. "Hold me tight, Margot. I'm real. You've felt the wedding dress. That's real, too. Nothing is an illusion. It was all real."Margot finally calmed down. She suddenly felt embarrassed. "Sorry about
"I do! I do want to be your daughter," Margot hurriedly exclaimed. She looked flustered. "I was just a bit overwhelmed. I never expected this. Aunt Alex, I …"Tamara laughed. "Since you're now her daughter, why aren't you referring to her as your mom?"Margot felt even more embarrassed!She grew up in an orphanage and had little concept of parental love. Although she had fantasized about having a mother like Tamara's, it was just a dream. She didn't have a mother. That was why she felt close to Alex. With Alex officially adopting Margot as her daughter, Margot gained a mother from that point onward.Margot's eyes watered. No matter how hard she tried to hold it in, she couldn't stop the tears from falling.Seeing this, Alex quickly took out tissues to wipe them away. "Don't cry. You'll get wrinkles if you cry."But the comforting words only made it worse.Margot threw herself into Alex's arms.Alex comforted Margot patiently, her eyes also glossing over.However, Jacob fr
