Tamara snapped back to her senses and saw Sebastian’s eyes fixating on her. Danger seemed to lurk deep within his pitch-black gaze. Right away, she set her glass on the coffee table and picked up some pen and paper to write: “It’s late. Why aren’t you asleep yet? Can’t sleep?”

After reading the message, Sebastian narrowed his eyes. “How does that concern you?”

“I was only worried. Does he have to be so mean?” Tamara complained in her heart. A frown marred her face as she crumpled the paper, dumped it in the bin, and marched upstairs with her glass of water.

Sebastian watched her withdrawing figure leave before whipping around and opening a window. Soon, a breeze gushed into the living space, cooling down Sebastian’s fiery lust.

Tamara tossed and turned in her bed.

Flashbacks of Sebastian’s reddened eyes plagued her mind. She knew it was a result of long-term insomnia. At the same time, she felt his foul temper was also to blame. The thought of Sebastian’s nasty behavior irri

    An overwhelming fragrance wafted over, causing Sebastian to frown. “What have you done to me?”With every word he said, he inhaled more of the scent and felt grogginess taking over. Shock flickered in his dark orbs that gawked at Tamara.Meanwhile, Tamara took back the scented tea. Her lips pursed into a taut line, and she looked slightly displeased that he had not fallen asleep.Sebastian shook his head, trying to regain his alertness, but the exhaustion he felt was too intense. He released Tamara’s wrist while yawning several times in a row. “W—What’s going on…?” he faltered. Simultaneously, many questions ate at his mind, and he wondered, “What was that in Tamara’s hand? Why do I feel so sleepy after inhaling it?”Seeing him struggle to stay awake, Tamara snaked an arm around his waist while guiding him onto the couch. After setting him there, she grabbed the pen and paper off the coffee table to write: “You should get some rest.”Sebastian used his last bit of willpower to r

    Sebastian’s countenance hardened so much that it made Tamara’s blood rush with anxiety. She hurriedly got to typing: “The scented tea was a gift from my friend… Is there a problem with it?”“Friend…?” Sebastian wondered. A frown marred his face as his pitch-black eyes stared Tamara down. After making sure there weren’t any abnormal reactions from her, he promptly left her room.Only then did she let out the faintest sigh of relief.“Gosh, he looked so serious earlier… It was scary,” Tamara mused. Her attention instinctively landed on the suitcase in her room as she declared in her heart, “I can’t reveal that part of my identity. Not yet.”She then got ready for the day, had her breakfast, and lounged on the couch to watch some television.“Good day, Mrs. Lynch and Miss Xanthos.” Ms. Thompson’s voice echoed from the main door just then.Tamara glanced over, only to see her mother-in-law, Yareli, leading Rowena into the living room. Out of respect, Tamara stood to greet the two but

    Yareli was determined to see the look of humiliation plaguing Tamara’s face. However, the outcome was destined to disappoint her.Tamara flashed a faint smirk as she watched Yareli and Rowena put on their act. Seeing the two initially repulsed Tamara as she knew nothing good would come from their combined presence, but now, she changed her mind. There was no harm in spectating a show between two vipers.Not getting the desired reaction from Tamara, Yareli frowned bitterly.Even Rowena sensed things were going awry. Hatred and hostility lurked deep within her eyes as she glanced at Tamara. Yet, that vanished in the next second when she spoke with a gentler tone, “Mrs. Lynch, this must be Young Mr. Lynch’s new home, huh? It’s my first time here.”At once, Yareli’s attention snapped over to Tamara. “Go, Tamara. Show Rowena around the place. She’s a guest, so I expect you to treat her with the utmost welcome.”Tamara raised a brow, but Rowena had already shot onto her feet and taunted

    Despite getting yelled at by Yareli, Tamara seemed unfazed and merely smirked.“Jeez. I’m only going to be in the Lynch family for a short time, so why do I have to put up with this bullshit?” Tamara thought while ascending the stairs, leaving behind Yareli and Rowena with their jaws agape.Unable to hold back her anger, Rowena shrilled, “How can she treat you this way? Don’t be upset, Mrs. Lynch. Otherwise, you might fall ill, and your son will surely worry when he finds out.”Yareli’s face darkened due to her gushing anger. A sinister aura formed in her eyes after listening to Rowena, and she thought, “That Tamara is a horrid bitch! She’s taking advantage of her baby, who bears the Lynch family’s blood, to behave arrogantly! Just wait, Tamara! Once the baby’s born, I’ll make you pay dearly!” “Let’s get out of here!” Yareli commanded before storming out the door with Rowena in tow.After getting into their car, Rowena eyed the older woman cautiously and decided to test the water

    Benjamin’s lips curved. “Don’t be so nervous, Margot. I’m just curious about this particular mixologist. She only mixes three alcoholic beverages in one day, but each has a unique flavor. How does she do it?” That elicited a proud smile from Margot, who replied, “I’m not telling you. It’s a trade secret!”“Well, why won’t you let me meet her in person?” asked Benjamin, who toyed with the phone in his hands.“Do you think you can just meet anyone as you please?” Margot scoffed, assuming Benjamin’s interest in Tamara was because he wanted to steal the latter. Hence, she did not bother to soften the blow of her words. “Mr. Inkling, I suggest you give up on trying to see her. My mixologist is loyal to 1999. She won’t go anywhere else.” Benjamin’s smile deepened as he clicked on his WhatsApp to text someone. He wrote: “That mixologist’s here again. Aren’t you coming over to see her?”At the same time, Sebastian’s phone vibrated in the office on the top floor of ST Corporation. He pic

    Sebastian was rendered speechless.“The audacity of this woman!” he thought.The elevator doors clinked shut, shutting out Sebastian’s cold gaze.Tamara did not think anything was off. 1999 was a bustling business, after all. Many of the top dogs in Londsville would frequent the bar.As the heir of the Lynch family, it was not odd for Sebastian to be seen in a place as such.Tamara reached Margot’s office and bid her farewell. Just as she was about to leave 1999, her phone buzzed from receiving a text.As she was unable to take calls, Tamara never missed any texts.Margot had texted her.MargotIsAdorbz: “Tammy, we just got a new wine sent in. Do you want to take a look at them in the wine cellar?”“New wine?” Tamara thought.As a mixologist, her job did not only entail mixing drinks. She was required to screen wines by examining their production dates and alcohol concentration to ensure they were mellow.If it were found that the wine had not aged as well as it should have,

    Tamara headed straight into the wine cellar to avoid Sebastian.However, just as she got inside, she heard footsteps falling behind her.“What on earth is going on? Did someone follow me? Who could it be?” she thought.The first person that came to mind was one of the servers. However, every server in 1999 knew about her, so they would have greeted her instantly.Since the person following her did not do so, she deduced that they must not be one.Tamara turned back to take a quick look and caught a glimpse of the person’s outfit. It was someone in a black suit.If she was not mistaken, Sebastian had been wearing a black suit when she saw him just moments before. Could he be the one following her?A trace of surprise flashed across her eyes. She eyed the room full of alcohol around her and figured that if Sebastian knew that she frequented a place like this, he would definitely forbid her from 1999 in the future.She was pregnant, after all.Tamara texted one of the servers on

    When the maid noticed the puzzlement in Tamara’s gaze, she hurriedly asked, “Young Mrs. Lynch, is everything alright?”Tamara shook her head. She knew that the maids had just come in the day before, so it was likely that they had been instructed to take special care of her as she was pregnant.Eventually, her confusion was dispelled. She drank the milk offered to her without a second thought.The maid let out a sigh of relief at that.After Tamara emptied the glass, she passed it back to the maid. The maid accepted the empty glass and left.Once Tamara arrived upstairs, an email notification popped up on her computer.The email read: “I’ve received the scented tea leaves.”Tamara broke out into a small smile.She had developed the scented tea in question for over 2 months. It had miraculous healing properties that catered specifically to insomnia. If it hadn’t been for everything that had happened to her family recently, she knew that her scented tea would have been flying off

    "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.

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.

    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.

    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.

    "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.
