Sebastian and Old Mr. Lynch were standing outside since men were prohibited inside.They saw a dumbfounded Tamara coming out with the report in hand.“What’s wrong?” Sebastian came closer and took the report from her.“You’re having triplets?” After reading the report, Sebastian paused before his gaze landed on Tamara’s stomach.“What?” Old Mr. Lynch’s eyes were as wide as saucers when he heard the news. He snatched the report from Sebastian and laughed when he read the content.“You did well, Tamara!” exclaimed the old man.That will be the first pair of triplets in the long lineage of the Lynch family.“How will you carry all three babies in your stomach?” Sebastian’s concern was about something else.Tamara felt speechless. “How am I supposed to know? Shouldn’t you be the one to blame?”She never thought she would be pregnant with triplets on the first try.Sebastian was something else.Immediately, Sebastian carried Tamara in bridal style, which caused her to struggle ag
“Are you sure it’s triplets?” Yareli hid her emotions and gave Tamara a smile.Before Tamara could react, Old Mr. Lynch sneered, “What do you mean by that? Are you calling me a liar? Are you calling the doctors liars?”“I never said that, Dad. Of course, I’m happy to hear that Tamara is pregnant with triplets. I’m going to be a grandmother soon!” Yareli immediately corrected herself and smiled warmingly.Old Mr. Lynch huffed, “I hope you mean what you say.”Yareli felt awkward at this. She shifted her gaze to Tamara. “Being pregnant with triplets will exhaust you completely. How about moving in instead? I’ll be able to look after you.”Sebastian cut her off. “There’s no need.”Tamara lowered her gaze. She had remained indifferent despite Yareli’s words.She still remembered what happened last time.Yareli paused. “What do you mean by that? Do you not trust me?”Since Tamara came into the picture, Yareli grew distant from her son. That bitch! She must have seduced Sebastian!S
“Young Mrs. Lynch, you’re mute?”Tamara smiled and nodded. She typed, “I have a birth defect.”Austin nodded. He looked indifferent.Austin was about to leave when he said, “Young Mrs. Lynch, if you ever wish to cure your muteness, I can contact my father on your behalf. My father is currently researching this.”He left before Tamara could reply.Tamara was speechless.Of course, she wanted the cure. Why did Austin rush to leave?“How was it?” Sebastian had just returned after ending the call.Tamara shook her head.She was thinking about what Austin had said.There might be a cure for her throat.Sebastian saw Tamara’s thoughtful look and thought she was still swimming in happiness upon learning about her pregnancy. He smiled and said, “I have a meeting later and will be heading to the company. Send me a text if anything happens.”Tamara nodded and watched as he left.Tamara napped in the afternoon. When she awoke, she decided to go for a walk in the garden. Austin sat in
However, Sebastian had already left. Even if Tamara had her questions, she could only keep them to herself.Tamara prepared herself. Soon, the anticipated day came.“Young Mrs. Lynch,” Austin called out to Tamara once she exited the gate.Tamara smiled at him and typed, “Where is your father, Dr. Beaver?”Austin opened the back seat door for Tamara. “Here you go, Young Mrs. Lynch. My father is home right now.”Tamara nodded and got in the car.After the car started, Tamara glanced back and didn’t say anything.The people were simply carrying out Sebastian’s order to protect her. She also had to watch out for herself. She didn’t mind being followed as long as no harm came to her babies.Throughout the car ride, Austin remained silent and did not strike up a conversation with Tamara. The car came to a stop at an apartment after a 20-minute drive.“This way, please, Young Mrs. Lynch,” said Austin after he locked his car.Tamara nodded and followed Austin upstairs.The neighborh
Tamara was taken aback and turned to Austin. Austin was still indifferent, as always. “Just do as my father says.”Tamara nodded and left with Austin.After they went downstairs, Tamara took out a beautiful box from her bag and gave it to Austin.Austin was caught off guard. “You don’t need to do that Young Mrs. Lynch. My father won’t accept it.Tamara insisted. She typed, “It’s nothing special. Just something to help with getting better sleep.”Austin relented. He took the box upstairs.Tamara placed her hand on her bulging stomach.Her eyes watered. Finally, she could speak.She could talk with her three children and be a normal mother.Tamara used to dream about her life after she gave birth. She couldn’t talk and communicate with her children. She was afraid they wouldn’t know how to speak as well. Tamara was anxious and kept blaming herself for this. She thought about many solutions, but nothing seemed to work.Her dreams always ended with her child being taken away from
Sebastian grabbed Tamara’s hand and pulled her into his embrace. He kissed her fiercely.Tamara was smiling widely. She grabbed his shirt and shyly returned the kiss.“Explain yourself. What were you doing with Austin?” Sebastian asked in a husky voice after he let Tamara go.Tamara fit snugly into his embrace and signed, “Dr. Beaver brought me to see his father.”Sebastian turned cold. “Tamara Simmons.”Sebastian sucked in a deep breath to calm himself.Tamara started signing, “He was only taking me to see his father for a checkup. Didn’t his father look after Grandpa? So, he must be a better doctor. That’s why I went.”Tamara didn’t know why she decided to keep the truth from Sebastian.But that was her decision.Perhaps she can surprise him with this.Tamara was pleased with her decision.Sebastian saw Tamara’s smile and couldn’t help but pinch her cheeks. “You must report to me if you ever hang out with strangers again.”Tamara looked up at him. “Are you still worried e
Jocelyn replied, “Where else could I be but at school?”Tamara replied, “Wait for me.”…Tamara went to Jocelyn’s school. Jocelyn had no trouble transferring in because she had previously attended school in another country. Tamara stood in the shade of a tree at the Londsville University school gate. She saw Jocelyn walking out with an indifferent look.“Oh my God. You’re sending me money in person?” mocked Jocelyn.Although Jocelyn had to rely on Tamara, she could never forgive Tamara for what she did to her family.Tamara pointed to a restaurant not far from them. “Come and have some food with me.”Jocelyn rolled her eyes. “You came here to treat me to some food?”Tamara did not react. She merely walked toward the restaurant.Jocelyn was annoyed. But thinking about her allowance, she had no choice but to follow along.Once inside the restaurant, Tamara ordered some noodles. She turned to Jocelyn, but she declined. “I’m not hungry.”Tamara nodded and took a seat. She star
“Tell me the truth. What happened?” Tamara sat beside Margot and asked seriously.Margot wanted to have some more fun. When she realized Tamara was serious, she stuck her tongue out. “I... I met Benjamin’s parents yesterday.”Tamara widened her eyes in surprise. “You went to meet Benjamin’s parents? When did the two of you get so close?”“It’s not what you think! I always had business ties with the Inkling family. Benjamin’s mother invited me over for a meal. That’s why I went. It was only then that I realized Benjamin’s mother had introduced a girl to Benjamin.” Margot looked slightly down when she recalled Benjamin’s mother’s admiration for the girl. It was as if the girl was her daughter-in-law.Margot was upset, but she didn’t want to admit it.Tamara pinched Margot’s cheeks. “What were you thinking? Didn’t you say a relationship would only come between you and your career? Look at you! Benjamin has taken over your every thought.”Margot blinked up at Tamara but did not deny
