Tamara turned toward the owner of the voice.

“I see you’ve got your sights set on it, Tamara. “I’d like to gift it to you,” James said with a gentle smile. He was sitting behind Tamara.

Tamara was shocked to learn James was the one who placed the bid.

“I can’t allow that. Stop bidding. This teapot isn’t worth that much. I’ll be able to get it easily.” Tamara hurried to stop him. Although she was grateful for his offer, two million dollars was too much.

Tamara was planning to get it at around a million dollars.

James smiled faintly, “It is a gift for a friend. Of course, I have to offer my all. I ask that you stop bidding for it.”

Tamara wanted to refuse, but Sebastian grabbed her hand.

She turned back to Sebastian.

Sebastian had a stern look on his face. “Why are you wasting your breath with him?”

Tamara grew speechless at this.

On stage, the host was about to seal the deal.

“Two million going once! Two million going twice!” exclaimed the host excitedly. They never thought t

    The teapot was delivered after the auction ended.“Young Mr. Lynch, this is the teapot you bid for,” smiled the staff.Sebastian pointed at Tamara. “Give it to her.”The staff members were taken aback. Their gaze landed on Tamara before it fell to the couple’s intertwined hands. They immediately said, “Here is your teapot, Young Mrs. Lynch.”Tamara nodded and took the teapot from them.Tamara’s eyes welled up as she looked at the teapot’s fine craftsmanship.Her mother had told her the teapot was passed down from Tamara’s grandmother. Tamara’s grandmother was an expert at making tea but kept her talents a secret.Now, the teapot was back in Tamara’s hands. Tamara was determined to protect it.Sebastian observed Tamara’s tearful eyes and smirked. “Let’s go home.”Tamara nodded and followed Sebastian outside.However, she stopped once they reached the door.“What’s wrong?” Sebastian tilted his head.Tamara hugged the teapot closer to her and indicated she needed to use the wa

    Tamara awoke in the hospital to find herself facing a white ceiling. She was confused by this.“You’re awake,” sounded James from beside her. Tamara turned and blinked at him.It was James who saved her.“Thank you,” signed Tamara.James said, “You’re welcome. I never thought someone would lay their hands on you.”James was walking past when he saw someone dragging Tamara away. Seeing how horrible of a state Tamara was in, James went up to help her without hesitation.Tamara lowered her gaze. She did not know who the person was.She also didn’t know who was plotting against her.The only person who came to mind was Yareli.But why would Yareli do that?Tamara was pregnant with the Lynch family’s heir. Yareli couldn’t possibly be plotting against her at a time like this.James saw the suspicion in Tamara’s eyes and decided not to pry further. “You have to stay the night here. The doctor will come round to check up on you tomorrow, and you will be ready to go then.”Tamara nod

    “Tamara, I can’t believe you’re siding with an outsider,” pouted Sebastian.Tamara was speechless.She couldn’t believe she’d get to see such a childish side of the all-powerful Sebastian.Sebastian saw nothing wrong with it. “He had only saved you once, and you’re already siding with him. He sure left a good impression on you.”Tamara sighed.Sebastian suddenly hovered around Tamara until they were only inches apart. “Tamara Simmons, you’re not allowed to side with him. Do you understand?”Tamara remained silent.She blinked hopelessly at Sebastian. How was she supposed to react to this?Sebastian did not buy her silence. He got down and bit Tamara’s lips.Tamara yelped and sucked in a breath. She glared at Sebastian.“Do you understand?” Sebastian whispered against her lips.His voice was husky and low. When he spoke, their lips would occasionally brush against each other. It was as if Sebastian was teasing Tamara with a kiss.Tamara’s face turned bright red. She placed h

    Tamara had not anticipated this. Only James’ fingerprints were discovered.How could this be?It was James who saved her.“Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake?” questioned Tamara.Sebastian met Tamara’s questioning gaze with a darkened look. “Are you doubting me?”Underneath Sebastian’s annoyance, Tamara could see a hint of sadness.Tamara thought her eyes were playing tricks on her.“Before I passed out, I saw James coming to save me. It’s normal for his fingerprints to be on me…” explained Tamara. There must be more fingerprints on her, but they must have been lost when the doctors threw her clothes away.Sebastian stared at Tamara. “You don’t believe me.”Tamara pursed her lips.It wasn’t that she didn’t believe Sebastian. She just didn’t want to make this a big deal.“I’m only worried that someone might intentionally delete the footage. I never said I doubted you.” When Tamara met Sebastian’s gaze, she couldn’t help but hug him.She batted her eyes at him.Sebastian

    “Do you know who could be behind this?” James saw the puzzled look Tamara had and asked.Tamara frowned. “Not a single person came to mind.”Many people wished for her demise. But if she was only going by that alone, she could not narrow it down to a single suspect.Who could it be?James nodded understandingly. “Alright.”He continued, “This person has already left Londsville. It will be difficult to apprehend him. Do you wish to notify Young Mr. Lynch? After all, his family’s businesses can be found all over the country.”Tell Sebastian?Tamara couldn’t explain the bad feeling she had about this.After all, Sebastian had come up empty-handed while James managed to dig up some information.Sebastian had also told her that only James’ fingerprints were found on her clothes.She didn’t know why she felt weird about this.Tamara pushed down the strange feeling, remembering that Sebastian would never lie to her.“I’ll keep an eye out. Thank you.” Tamara offered James a smile a

    Tamara frowned at Sebastian. He was being impossible.He had sent someone to trail after her. How dare he act so high and mighty?Just when Tamara was about to retort, James butted in, “It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have asked you over to look at the documents.”James then turned to Sebastian. “This really is just a misunderstanding, Young Mr. Lynch. Young Mrs. Lynch only came over to look at the documents about her kidnapper from last night.”Immediately after saying that, he handed Sebastian his tablet as evidence of his innocence.After James was sure Sebastian had looked through the content, he turned to Tamara. “Please don’t blame Young Mr. Lynch, Young Mrs. Lynch. He was only worried about you. I was in the wrong for not thinking things through.”Sebastian remained silent.He couldn’t put his finger on the weird feeling he was getting.In the next second, Tamara’s face darkened. “Sebastian Lynch.

    “What is there to explain? There is nothing between us.” Tamara began cutting her steak.James nodded at this, and their conversation ended.Afterward, Tamara went to 1999 to work. She only came to Margot’s office once she was done preparing the three glasses of wine.“Tammy, what brings you here today?” Margot looked up from her work.Tamara signed, “Just passing by.”Margot propped her head on her hand. “Did you get into a fight with Young Mr. Lynch?”Tamara paused. “How did you know?”Margot smiled meaningfully. She stood up and went to take a seat beside Tamara. “I can’t believe Young Mr. Lynch would have a fight with you. He was always so smitten with you.”Tamara felt like she had been hit in the head. Margot was telling the truth.“No amount of love can change who he is deep inside,” frowned Tamara.“Seems like it was a big fight,” exclaimed Margot. “What happened?”Tamara observed Margot’s curious look. “You really want to know?”“Hurry up and spit it out.” Margot w

    “What should I do then?” Sebastian’s voice was husky and low. It sounded very alluring.Tamara’s breath quickened. She had the sudden urge to kiss him, so she did.Sebastian immediately returned her kiss.His kisses went lower and lower.Tamara’s body was on fire, and she was shaking in anticipation.Tamara held her hand up to stop Sebastian. She looked at him through hasty eyes.Sebastian was breathing heavily. He swallowed, “It’s been four months.”Tamara shivered. In the next second, she kissed him.She had responded with her actions.After a while...Tamara’s limp body was carried into the bathroom. She was returned to her bed after she had been cleaned up.Sebastian was gazing tenderly at Tamara’s tired face. He chuckled lowly.Tamara’s eyelids were partially closed as she peered at him. “What are you laughing at?”“You will need more practice,” muttered Sebastian. “Let’s wait until after the baby is born.”Tamara was speechless.Her face was as bright as a tomato

    "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.

    "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.

    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.

    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
