Margot, on the other hand, had already been dragged away by Benjamin, who had appeared out of nowhere. The man hadn’t even said hello to Tamara.Tamara could only watch as Tamara got dragged away. She reached out a hand but was unable to grab Margot’s hand.She felt waves of heat fill her body. She was starting to get dizzy.She couldn’t stay here any longer. She had to get out.She looked up and noticed Sebastian, who was a short distance away, had his eyes downcast. He appeared to be looking at his phone.Tamara forced her body to move in his direction.As long as she made it to Sebastian, she knew everything would be okay.They were neither too close nor too far apart. However, since the room was so crowded, the distance between them seemed to stretch indefinitely.Tamara squeezed her way through, bit by bit. She was only a few steps away from Sebastian. Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of her, blocking her path.“Tamara, are you okay?”Hearing a familiar voice, Tamara
James stood up after casting a glance at Tamara as Sebastian was carrying her off. As he ran a hand over his shirt to smooth it out, he said, “Sorry, but I can’t agree with what you’re telling me to do.”When Sebastian and Joanne arrived, they discovered an unconscious Tamara lying on the couch while James talked to her.They didn’t seem to react to the scene.Sebastian had an icy look on his face because Tamara was ill, yet James made no move to bring her to the hospital.That was very suspicious.Joanne stared coldly at James. “Do you wish to call off your engagement with Jessica?”A look of indifference replaced James’ usual gentle face. “Will I be able to marry her if I follow through?”“You!” Joanne was angry that James did not do as she said.But the plan failed, and nothing could change that.Joanne stomped off, leaving James alone in the room.James stood rooted to his spot. His gaze lowered, and there was a faint look on his face.In the end, he couldn’t bring himse
Tamara thought she’d been thrown into another nightmare.She was glad it was Sebastian and not anyone else.Something primal within him stirred when Sebastian saw Tamara in her birthday suit. “What’s wrong?” he asked, grabbing Tamara’s shoulders.Tamara looked up and signed, “Last night, I thought it was…”Before she finished, an odd feeling washed over her.Tamara slowly looked down and discovered her chest was exposed. In fact, she was standing naked.Tamara’s face became as red as a tomato. She grabbed the blanket quickly and wrapped it around herself. Her bright, clear eyes did not dare to meet Sebastian’s.Oh, my God!What was she doing?Tamara couldn’t believe she had conversed with Sebastian in the nude. She even rushed over to hug him!Tamara wanted nothing more than to dig a hole and hide inside it.Sebastian chuckled lowly. He walked over and sat on the bed. He observed Tamara’s blushing face and said huskily, “This isn’t the first time I saw you in this state.”T
Tamara turned to Sebastian in suspicion. “What are you planning to do?”Sebastian’s face turned stern. “Did she think she could escape from all the wrongdoings she did? Dream on!”Hearing this, Tamara knew Sebastian was going to deal with Joanne.However, Joanne was part of Clacton’s Custry family. It wasn’t a good idea to go against them, right?Sebastian observed Tamara’s worries. His lips curled into a devilish smirk. “Are you worried for me?”Tamara nodded. “I don’t want to cause you trouble.”After all, when one was at a disadvantage, it wouldn’t be wise to go against their opponents head-on. Instead, they should lay low and look for the right opportunity before giving the winning blow.Sebastian pulled Tamara into his embrace and kissed her on the top of her head. He whispered, “Don’t worry. We’ll be fine.”Tamara’s doubts were chased away when she saw the stern look on Sebastian’s face and the kingly aura he was giving off. She nodded at his words.Jerome, who was stand
“Go familiarize yourself with this place. We’ll be working here from now on,” ordered Ms. Thompson.The rest of the servants complied.…Tamara took a nap, and her fatigue had washed away by the time she woke up. She slowly sat up before she stretched.Her phone suddenly buzzed.Tamara took her phone and noticed it was a text from James. “Are you free to meet up right now? I have something I wish to say to you.”Tamara blinked before she made her decision. “Okay. Give me a location.”…James picked a restaurant as their meeting place.Once Tamara entered, she saw James standing not far from her. James walked over when their eyes met.“I’ve booked us a private room. Let’s go,” informed James.Tamara nodded and followed James to their private room.Once they were seated, a waiter came over with the menus.“What would you like to order?” James passed the menu to Tamara.Tamara flipped through the menu and quickly made her choice.They were still friends. Tamara did not want
A hard look replaced James’ usual gentleness. “You’re right. I am useless.”The other voice roared angrily, “Tell me the truth! Have you fallen for Tamara?”James’ breathing hitched, “No.”“No? Then why didn’t you take advantage of her? It had better not be because she is pregnant, and you felt pity for her. I’ll call bullshit on that! You had better get your sorry ass back to Clacton! You have forgotten where you stand, boy!” He hung up the call.James clenched his fists tightly. When he turned around, Tamara was still trying to call a taxi. She looked so fragile and soft. The wind blowing her hair behind her only added to her beauty and gave her the appearance of having stepped out of a fairytale.James swallowed hard before walking over. “I’m done, Tamara. I’ll give you a ride.”Tamara was startled. “You’re done so soon?”Nathan nodded and smiled, “It was just a phone call. It didn’t take too long.”Tamara mirrored his nod. “Alright. Thank you.”It was hard to find a taxi h
When Ms. Thompson walked over, she immediately sensed something was wrong. She observed the confused Tamara and also Sebastian, who was going upstairs. Slowly making her way to Tamara, she asked, “What happened, Young Mrs. Lynch?”Tamara was also in the dark. “I’m not sure.”Sebastian seemed furious.Who angered him?Ms. Thompson suggested, “Maybe you should check up on him, Young Mrs. Lynch. I hope nothing bad happened.”Tamara nodded. Although she wasn’t sure why Sebastian gave her cold shoulders, she was determined to get to the bottom of it.Tamara saw Sebastian entering his study room.Sebastian came home just to work?Tamara walked over. When she opened the door, a low voice sounded, “Don’t you know how to knock?”Tamara blinked with her clear eyes. Upon seeing the stern look on Sebastian’s face, she closed the door and knocked.“Come in,” said Sebastian coldly. Only then did Tamara enter.“What’s up with you?” signed Tamara.Sebastian was leaning against the table. H
Tamara tilted her head. “He’s leaving today?”James told her he was only leaving tomorrow.Sebastian snorted, “Another lie.”Tamara pursed her lips. Her gaze landed on the files. It was too clean to be true.What secrets was James hiding?“Tamara, you’re not the only one affected now. You can’t be thinking only for yourself all the time. Think about our babies.” Sebastian saw the thoughtful look on Tamara’s face and reminded gently.After a moment of silence, Tamara nodded. “I know.”Sebastian reached out to grab her hands, but Tamara had turned to leave.Sebastian’s face fell. “What are you doing?”Tamara didn’t notice Sebastian reaching out for her hand. She wanted to discuss this with Margot. After all, Margot was their middleman back then.Maybe Margot knew something that they didn’t.Tamara swiftly made her way to the room before giving Margot a video call.However, her calls never made it through.Why was that?Realization hit Tamara like a truck. Ever since last ni
