Tamara did not want to involve herself with Joanne anymore. As such, she left the hospital without another word.

“How despicable!”

Joanne had never been ignored in her entire life. She was going to die of anger.

“Joanne, what’s wrong?”

At this moment, Jessica walked over, holding James’ arm. When she saw how furious her sister looked, she asked in concern.

“I just had an encounter with a bitch.”

Joanne’s tone was filled with disdain as she spoke. Then, she asked curiously, “What are you doing here?”

Then, she shifted her gaze to James, giving him a once-over. Then, she grinned widely. “Who’s this?”

Jessica blushed shyly at that. “Joanne, I’ve told you about him before. This is my fiancé, James Gladwell.”

Joanne looked surprised. “Hold on, isn’t he the one about to take over Gladwell Corporation?”

Jessica was stunned by that. She hurriedly said, “I really like him. We’re already engaged! Who cares about that?”

When Joanne saw how anxious her sister became, she said nothing mo

    Sebastian’s expression grew cold. “What’s your problem?”Margot shook her head, crossing her arms in front of her chest as she stared at him. “I was just wondering what horrible sin you committed to end up this way.”Tamara was stunned.She looked at Margot and signed, “What are you doing?”Margot was surprised. “I was insulting your husband. Why? Have I upset you?”Tamara did not dare reply to that.Sebastian smiled faintly. “Hey, I’m a good person, okay? What sin could I have possibly committed?”Margot acquiesced after noticing that Tamara was growing irate with her. “Whatever, I’ll stop joking around now. Didn’t you bring him food?”Only then did Tamara smile. After setting up the tray table, she placed the lunchbox on it.At this moment, someone pushed open the ward’s door. Joanne walked in with a lunchbox in hand.“Sebastian, I made you lunch. I’m a pretty good cook. You should try some of my cooking.”Without asking, she walked over and removed the lunchbox Tamara had

    Sebastian reached out a hand. Tamara had no idea what he wanted, but she approached him and placed her hand in his.Sebastian pulled her hard, and she fell into his embrace a split second later. Tamara paled and got flustered all of a sudden.“What are you doing?” she signed with shaky hands. It was clear that she had been frightened.Sebastian patted her head. “Were you jealous?”Tamara struggled to get up. Seeing that Sebastian was extra careful around Tamara’s belly, he did not force her to stop. Nonetheless, he made her sit by his bedside.“Why would I be jealous? I just thought you looked really regretful.”Sebastian’s thin lips curled into a faint smile. “I’ve just realized something now that I hear you say that. I really regret turning down her food now. I wonder how it would taste.”Tamara’s face darkened when she heard that. She took the lunchbox she had brought over with her and moved to leave.“Hey, why are you leaving?”Sebastian stared at her with smiling eyes.“

    Margot tapped Tamara on the forehead. “Tammy, let me ask you something. “Now that we know how powerful the Custry family is, what will you do if Joanne forces you to leave Sebastian?”Tamara blinked. “Shouldn’t Sebastian be the one to make a decision like that?”Margot replied, “After having gone through so much, why the hell are you still so trusting of others? Do you honestly think you can trust that husband of yours wholeheartedly?”Tamara signed, “If I can’t trust him, who else can I trust?”Margot was silent for a moment. “I guess you have a point there, but I think you should make some preparations just in case. Joanne’s already in Londsville, after all. Who knows what might happen later on?”Tamara nodded. “Alright, I’ll be careful.”Margot had kindly given her a warning, so she was naturally grateful. However, would Sebastian really force her to make such a difficult decision?She believed in him.“Let’s not talk about that anymore. The Throne Games will begin next week

    Margot’s eyes widened instantly. She reached out to snatch the paper away, but one stern look from Benjamin made her retract her hand. He gazed deeply into her eyes, tone filled with amusement as he asked, “What are you trying to do?”“How could you ask me that? I gave that to you ages ago! Why do you even still have it? That’s so creepy of you.” Margot did not expect the man to have evidence of her past infatuation with him.Benjamin cocked a brow. “You’re not going to deny what you’ve done before, are you?”Margot’s eyes glimmered. “Stop your bullshit. I wrote that to you when I was a kid! Only an idiot like you would think that I meant it!”When Benjamin saw how affected Margot was, his voice grew more profound. “That’s right. I did think you meant it. Now, I’m asking you to cash in on me.”Margot was rendered speechless.Where did this cashing-in nonsense even come from?"Benjamin Inkling, stop fooling around. Aren’t you still in love with that Juliet of yours? You should ho

    Benjamin’s gaze grew dark, and his voice was laced with coldness.Only then did the pain in his head fade into nothing.He closed his eyes and took in a few steady breaths. As if he sensed something off, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked to the side. He saw Margot standing next to his car, staring at him in shock.“I just came back to get my phone. I didn’t mean to pry into your secrets or anything...” Margot faltered a little in her explanation as she saw Benjamin turn to face her. Then she opened the car door to retrieve her phone.“Well… I think you should head home to rest. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear anything,” Margot said after grabbing her phone. Then, she rushed into her place.Benjamin’s expression darkened. He got out of the car to chase after her.Margot was still thinking about what she had heard when she heard a flurry of hurried footsteps behind her. She whirled around to look, her face pale with fear.“Benjamin, why are you following me?”Margot dashed towa

    Benjamin was stunned for a moment.He pinched Margot’s chin and narrowed his cold eyes at her. “My good girl, are you still afraid of me?”Margot looked as if she had gotten struck by lightning. “What did you just call me?”He called her a good girl; how dare he!She had never been one in her life!Benjamin’s expression did not falter. “My good girl.”Margot was rendered speechless.In comparison to the other Benjamin, it appeared that this one was much more domineering.The way he spoke to her had a flirtatious undertone, and he was quick to give her a pet name.“Benjamin, I’m not afraid of you. I already knew something wasn’t right about you and guessed you might have split personality disorder. I’m a lot less scared now that you’ve confirmed my suspicions, but I do have some questions,” Margot said calmly.It was not the time for flirtatious banter.“Ask me.”Benjamin stroked her cheeks slowly, his fingers massaging her delicate skin. His breathing had grown heavy.“You

Then, she went to the club with Margot.The lobby was bright and spacious. Plastered all over the walls were posters promoting the gaming competition.The center of each of those posters bore Tamara’s gaming handle.The word ‘Cutie-pie’ struck a jarring note. “Tammy, I don’t know if it’s just me, but I detect a huge hint of favoritism from these little details on the posters. It stinks of it.”After examining the posters around them, Margot remarked from next to Tamara.Tamara pursed her lips. “Really? I don’t think it stinks at all.”Margot immediately rolled her eyes. She had intended to tease her friend but was promptly exposed.ST Club was a newly registered company under ST Corporation.

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.

    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.

    "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.

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.
