“Why did you choose me?” A gentle voice immediately sounded from the phone. The voice was filled with emotion and did not have any robotic qualities to it at all!Tamara’s eyes widened as she stared at James.James merely shot her a warm smile. “This is a product that my people have recently developed. Individuals who have communication issues are the target users. Since this newest development garnered exceptional results, I wanted to let you try it. Do you like it?”Margot got overcome with emotion. “I had no idea your company would come up with something like this. It seems that not every entrepreneur cares only about profits, huh?”James burst into laughter. “But, Ms. Zimmerman, you’re also an entrepreneur.”Margot let out an embarrassed smile. Whenever she was excited, whatever she said always seemed to come back to bite her.Tamara carefully perused the phone’s available options. The software was designed simply, with no functions that were overly complex or made the interf
Tamara typed, “Alright, you should resolve that as soon as possible. You don’t need to send me home.”Margot was still a bit worried. She looked over at James and said, “Mr. Gladwell, I’ll have to trouble you to send Tammy home. She’s pregnant, so please don’t drive too fast.”The slight smile on James’ face suddenly froze. He looked over at Tamara in surprise without saying anything, but it was clear what he was thinking.Margot followed up hurriedly, “You weren’t thinking about getting together with Tammy, were you? Let me warn you; you’d better drop that thought this instant! She’s already a married woman, you know. She’s pregnant with her husband’s kid as well.”James let out a laugh. “No, of course not. Stop joking around.”Margot winked at Tamara. “Alright then, I’ll take my leave now. Text me once you reach home, alright?”Tamara nodded. After that, Margot left in a flash.“Let’s get going, Miss Simmons,” James said, walking her to the parking lot.Tamara was uncomfortab
Tamara was so angry that she began to sign, “Sebastian Lynch, what the hell do you want? Give the phone back to me!”When Sebastian saw how aggressive her hand movements were, his thin lips curled into a devious smile. “What’s gotten you so anxious?”“I’m not anxious! I just don’t like it when you take my things from me,” Tamara explained.When Sebastian walked in, she did not hear him at all. He snatched the phone away from her right away.She could not believe how annoying this man was.“Are you sure that’s the only reason? Do you have nothing else to be anxious about?” Sebastian asked, his eyes piercing through Tamara’s soul.Tamara blinked her crystal clear eyes at him and signed, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”A flash of dissatisfaction crossed Sebastian’s dark gaze. “You’re not allowed to use this phone.”Frustrated, Tamara signed, “Why not?”“I don’t want you to have anything to do with another man,” Sebastian answered coldly, then loosened his grip on her. T
Tamara went to open the door and was met with a smiling Ms. Thompson.“Young Mrs. Lynch, Mrs. Lynch came to visit. You should come to say hi to her.”Yareli was here?Coldness flashed across Tamara’s eyes. The man from the incident back in the Lynch manor that day had confirmed Yareli’s involvement.Even though there were a lot of holes in her theory, Tamara was certain that without Yareli’s explicit permission, that man would never have been able to step foot into the Lynch manor.Tamara honestly did not expect Yareli to come over.She nodded, then followed Ms. Thompson downstairs.Yareli was sitting on the sofa, chatting away with Old Mr. Lynch.When Tamara approached them, she first smiled politely at the old man. Then, she looked over at Yareli and nodded in greeting.Yareli exuded a wealthy, graceful demeanor. She looked at Tamara plainly, then pointed at a bunch of products at the side and said, “I heard that you’ve been getting ill. I brought you some health supplements
“That’s good to hear!”Old Mr. Lynch was overjoyed, pinning all his hopes on Tamara.Tamara eyed the chessboard for a moment. Even though the game had just started, it was clear that Old Mr. Lynch’s black pieces were already at a disadvantage.Tamara could not help but pursed her lips. Clearly, the old man did not know how to play chess at all.The white pieces could easily capture the black pieces with an open path like that.Tamara could not help but let out a loud sigh. Judging by the look of the board, defeating Sebastian would be challenging.However, when met with Old Mr. Lynch’s hopeful gaze, she tried to conceal her thoughts.She focused her gaze on the chessboard and continued to play with Sebastian.Old Mr. Lynch had been able to follow their moves in the very beginning. However, he found himself at a loss as time went on. He ended up dragging Ms. Thompson over to assess the game.“Can you read the board? Tell me who has the upper hand now.”Ms. Thompson hurriedly r
Tamara did not reply to that.Margot: “You got all anxious from a single look he shot you! Tammy, I’m so disappointed in you.”Tamara remained quiet.Margot: “You don’t have to make up any more excuses. It’s clear that you’ve fallen for Sebastian.”Tamara froze. Had she fallen for the man?Her hand unconsciously made its way to her chest. She had no clue when the man had made his way into her heart.Tamara blushed harder at the thought.At this moment, her door opened. She hurriedly looked up to see Sebastian standing by the door, gazing deeply into her eyes.Subconsciously, Tamara got up, looking a little helpless.“You’re blushing.”Sebastian locked the door behind him after he entered, then walked up to Tamara, pinching her red cheek.“Why are you blushing? Were you hiding here thinking about me in secret?” Sebastian asked, his tone happy.Tamara hurriedly refuted by signing, “As if!”“You don’t have to pretend. You don’t need to think about me secretly like this, you k
On the surface, it appeared that Yareli had brought Tamara to the birthday party out of kindness, but the older woman planned to snub her deliberately.If Tamara had been any other woman, she would have broken down into hysterics from Yareli’s actions.However, it was a shame that she wasn’t.Tamara was quick to discern Yareli’s devious plot. It was only natural that she refused to follow the older woman’s instructions.She walked up to a blue velvet dress, pointing at it as she looked over at the worker.The worker froze. “You want to wear this one?”Tamara nodded.The worker had a troubled expression on her face. “But Miss Baiss…”Tamara showed her the text on her phone that read, “I’m pregnant with Sebastian Lynch’s child, you know? Miss Baiss is very fond of this grandchild of hers. Are you sure making me wear a tunic dress will be wise?”Upon reading that, the worker did not dare to insist on the dress Yareli picked. She quickly removed the blue velvet dress from the hange
Eugenia was really confident. She looked at Tamara smugly, her gaze filled with provocation.After she realized there was no way that Tamara would warm up to her, Eugenia decided to give up on pretending. Her real intention had been to steal Sebastian from Tamara, after all.“Wow, that must mean Young Mr. Lynch really likes you.”“Of course he does! If Miss Baiss is this fond of her, Young Mr. Lynch must share the same sentiment.”“Eugenia, I’m so envious of you. Don’t forget about us once you become the next Young Mrs. Lynch, okay?”The flattery and envious praises made Eugenia puff with pride. She turned to shoot a smug look at Tamara but found that the woman had left.Eugenia scoffed inwardly.“She’s just a mute! What is she so proud of, anyway? She’s going to get kicked out of the Lynch family sooner or later!” she thought.…Tamara thought Eugenia was getting too much ahead of herself. Her arrogant, smug expression made it seem like she had already taken her place as the
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
