”Tamara Simmons, you don’t have to look so puzzled. Just try leaving and you’ll see.”

After Sebastian said that, he spun on his heel and left.

The cold chill of his presence in the air did not dissipate for a long while.

Tamara remained horrified for a short moment. She didn’t expect Sebastian to go into a fit of rage like that.

His anger wasn’t hot and fiery but cold yet biting.

It was something she had never experienced before.

She suddenly felt regretful of her actions.

She stopped packing and cast her eyes toward the torn marriage certificate on the ground. The red document seemed painful to even look at.

This marriage of hers was honestly a disaster. All she could do was wait for time to pass.

Once she gave birth to the child, she would no longer have to associate herself with Sebastian.

When Sebastian returned from work, he noted that Tamara’s door was shut and that the torn pieces of the marriage certificate were nowhere in sight.

He let out a cold scoff. It seemed th

    When Ms Thompson heard the maid, she asked with concern, “Oh gosh, have you seen a doctor yet?”The maid nodded. “I have. It’s nothing too bad, but seeing that Young Mrs. Lynch is pregnant, I’m worried that I might pass on whatever disease I have to her. I think it’d be best if I went home.”Ms Thompson nodded. “I suppose that’s for the best. But you don’t have to quit completely. How about you take temporary leave for now? You can get back to work any time you like in the future once you’re healthy.”The maid replied, tone grateful, “That’s very kind of you, Ms. Thompson. But my younger brother is still ill at home. I have to take care of him, so I don’t think I’ll be coming back any time soon.” Ms Thompson was quick to catch the drift.“Alright, then. I’ll get the salary you’re owed settled as soon as possible. If you do decide to come back for work, just let me know.” Ms Thompson thought that maid was really good at her job, so she tried her best to make her stay.Once the ma

    When Sebastian saw how anxious Tamara looked, he stayed silent for a few moments. Then, he said to the nurse, “We’re going to keep it for now.”The nurse was startled. “But if the stillborn is left in the mother’s body for too long, it will cause a series of malignant diseases. Are you sure?”Tamara nodded firmly. She was sure.The nurse nodded back in acknowledgement but couldn’t help but add, “As parents, I know you two might not be able to believe the news, but the reports are never wrong. I still think it’s best to terminate the pregnancy as soon as possible.”After leaving them with that, the nurse left.Tamara loosened her grip on Sebastian’s hand and closed her eyes slowly.She had to retrace her steps to figure out where exactly everything had gone wrong.Whatever had just happened was too sudden.While living in the Lynch family’s residence, for the baby's sake, she had been fed and provided with the best of the best. Since that was the case, she figured she should’ve

    The leaf did not taste unusual. Some sweetness accompanied a faint bitterness.“Young Mrs. Lynch, why are you eating leaves? They haven’t been cleaned yet!” When Ms Thompson saw what Tamara was doing, she hurriedly snatched the carrot away.Tamara’s brows furrowed as she regarded the rest of the vegetables in the fridge. None of them seemed to emit any strange smells.This meant that there wasn’t anything wrong with the food.If that was the case, then where did the problem lie?“Tamara Simmons, come back here! Don’t you dare try to change the topic. I need you to explain yourself! How’s the baby now? Do you think that you can do away with a child of the Lynch family’s blood as you please? Let me tell you, things are not that simple! If you don’t explain yourself properly, I’ll make sure the Simmons family pays for this!”Yareli despised Tamara from the start.Since the Simmons family had been adamant that Tamara married Sebastian, the Lynch family had no choice but to accept th

    The atmosphere in the living room thickened.The arrogant joy in Rowena’s eyes was palpable.

Soon, Sebastian would be hers!Soon enough, Ms Thompson hurried downstairs with a solemn look on her face. She shot a surprised look at Tamara.Yareli turned towards the housekeeper and asked, “Did you find anything?”Ms Thompson nodded. Then, she placed the item in her hand on the coffee table.Everyone leaned forward to get a closer look at what it was. Rowena pursed her lips and was the first to speak. “Those are pregnancy interfering pills!”Once those words were said, Tamara felt her face fall.She walked up to the table to examine the pills. Then, she threw it onto the ground and signed to Sebastian: “I didn’t take those!”Meanwhile, Rowena continued to add fuel to the fire. “Miss Simmons, you might not like Young Mr. Lynch, but you

    Sebastian’s expression darkened. His voice was low and magnetizing as he asked, “You’d let me do anything?”Tamara nodded, looking incredibly serious. Her beautiful eyes shone with determination.Yareli had no idea what words the couple were exchanging with each other. However, she could tell that Sebastian and Tamara had struck some sort of deal with each other.“How can this happen?” she thought to herself.“Seb, what are you guys doing? You’re not planning to let this wicked woman off easy, are you?” Yareli asked, stone-faced as she looked at her son.Sebastian turned his head towards her and said, “Mom, I’ll handle this my way. You must be tired. You should head home to rest.”“Hold on, what do you mean by that?” Yareli was truly startled. “You’re really going to let this evil wench off scot-free? Seb, listen to me, that woman has to be kicked out of the family today or –”“Ms. Thompson, please show my mother out.”Sebastian interrupted Yareli, then tugged Tamara upstairs b

    The reply read: ”Roger that, Miss Simmons.”Tamara put her phone down and then closed her eyes slowly.It was clear that whoever was behind the incident had begun plotting a long while ago. They were definitely trying to get rid of the baby in her belly.Once the baby was gone, Tamara would not be able to retain her position as Young Mrs. Lynch anymore.When that happened, who would be the one to benefit from the situation the most?An image of Rowena crossed her mind at that thought.Tamara recalled that when she had gone to retrieve her marriage certificate with Sebastian, Rowena had nothing nice to say to her.Furthermore, she even tried to push Tamara over, hoping she would lose the baby.It was very likely that Rowena had been the one to bribe the maid.However, these were all just guesses. Tamara would have to get the whole truth from Cynthia.Half an hour later.Tamara’s phone vibrated in her hand. She hurriedly looked at it and found that the person she had contacted

    Sebastian’s handsome features seemed frosted over with ice. He looked down at his expensive wristwatch and said curtly, “Let’s hold off for a short while.”Jerome was confused. He did not know what Sebastian was waiting for.Soon enough, he found the answer to his query.Benjamin called Sebastian to invite him to a meal in 1999.Sebastian got his car key from Jerome, then reminded the latter, “Keep a close eye on the situation over there.”Jerome nodded. “Understood, Young Mr. Lynch.”Sebastian drove himself to 1999. Just as he passed the key to the valet, he spotted a familiar figure heading her way into 1999’s lobby.He quirked an eyebrow and thought, “What a coincidence.”Tamara managed to get someone to track Rowena down. When she was notified that the woman was having a little get-together in 1999, she made her way to the bar straight away.1999 felt like home to Tamara.As such, she had no trouble navigating her way to the private lounge Rowena was said to be in.Insid

Her bright eyes fixed themselves on Rowena, impatience burning through them.“Oh my God!”Someone exclaimed. No one had expected Tamara to raise her hand against Rowena.Rowena was stunned and rendered speechless for a short moment. When she finally snapped back to her senses, she glared angrily at Tamara. “How dare you hit me!”“As she should. Why? Do you need a warning every time it happens?”Before Tamara could reply, a cold voice sounded from behind her.“Young Mr. Lynch…”“He’s on Tamara’s side?”“I thought he was still mad at Tamara for getting rid of their baby!”The private lounge suddenly buzzed with chatter and whispers. Rowena’s expression darkened.She did not expect S

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. 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.

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
