Benjamin was being treated for his split personality disorder. One of his personalities would soon vanish. Would the person Margot like be the one to disappear?If that were to happen, what would happen to Margot?Tamara was worried about this, but she didn’t dare voice her worries, fearing Margot would lash out and do something she’d regret.Benjamin was the only one who had a say over his body.Her phone vibrated. There was a new text. “It is going smoothly, but I still feel weird about this. By the way, how are you?”Tamara smiled. “I’m fine, but the three children are too lively. They keep kicking around. It hurts when they do so.”Margot replied, “What a lively bunch. But it’s good for you to have triplets. At least you will be killing three birds with one stone.”Tamara giggled. “You can do the same too.”Margot responded, “Then I’ll go and do it now.”Tamara replied, “...”Her message was left on sent. Tamara blinked. Was Margot seriously going at it right now?She wa
Since Tamara was getting close to the end of her third trimester, Sebastian always came home to join her for dinner, and then he would continue working.This was the first time he wouldn’t be home.Although Tamara found this odd, she knew it was to be expected.Sebastian was the president of ST Corporation, and his company was going through a difficult time. It was only natural for him not to return home.Tamara slowly got out of bed. Her stomach was huge. She had to place a hand under her stomach whenever she rolled out of bed, or the sudden drop in her stomach would cause her huge discomfort.She was drenched in sweat by the time she got out of bed.When she finally exited her room, twenty minutes had passed. She took the lift downstairs and saw the busy servants. Dinner had already been served.“You’re here, Young Mrs. Lynch. I was just about to go get you,” said Ms. Thompson when she saw Tamara.Tamara smiled. “I can do this myself. The doctor said I should exercise more.”
Tamara felt restless and lost her appetite. She didn’t want to return to her room and decided to wait in the living room. She would pace around and glance at the door from time to time.Ms. Thompson couldn’t help but laugh in amusement at Tamara’s actions. “You don’t need to be so anxious, Young Mrs. Lynch. It’s normal for Young Mr. Lynch to be home late from work. Sometimes, he wouldn’t come home at all.”Tamara turned to Ms. Thompson. “But ever since we got married, he had never stayed out late. This is the first time.”Hearing this, Ms. Thompson paused. That was true.Sebastian used to be out all night and would sometimes skip meals altogether. Yet ever since he got together with Tamara, he would still return home at night even though he was initially reluctant. Following his blooming relationship with Tamara, he even started coming home earlier.“Maybe there is more work than usual. Don’t worry too much, Young Mrs. Lynch. You should rest in your room if you’re tired,” nudged M
Tamara was careful with her actions for fear of hurting Sebastian.Sebastian observed Tamara’s nervousness and smirked devilishly, “This is nothing. You don’t have to get your knickers in a twist.”Tamara pursed her lips and made no comment. She treated all his bruises before returning the first aid kit to Ms. Thompson.Tamara turned to Sebastian with a stern look on her face. “Tell me the truth. What happened?”Sebastian quirked a brow at how serious Tamara was acting. “You don’t believe me?”Tamara signed, “How could I? You are Sebastian Lynch. You have bodyguards all around you. Not to mention, you’re a good fighter yourself, and you’re telling me this is just a scratch? You have never come home this late. Something must have happened.”Tamara was confident of her gut feelings. Her uneasiness was too much for her to shake off simply.Sebastian sighed and held her hands. He muttered, “What do you want me to say? That I got in a fight? I would lose my pride.”Tamara widened he
Sebastian closed his eyes. “It’s not her. It’s me.”“What happened to you, Young Mr. Lynch?” There was a hint of surprise in Austin’s voice.Sebastian grew impatient. “Austin Beaver! You are the Lynch family’s doctor. Stop asking so many questions and come over!”Sebastian hung up the call right after.He had no shirt on and had a wound on his abdomen. The wound was still open and bleeding. The wound pulsed with each breath he took. It appeared repulsive.A knock came on the door half an hour later.“Come in!” said Sebastian coldly.Austin walked in with a medical kit in hand. Seeing the state Sebastian was in, Austin’s usual indifferent face turned into one of shock. “Were you beaten up by a mob, Young Mr. Lynch?”Austin sat beside Sebastian and took out some tools to clean the wound.Sebastian’s eyes were shut tightly. He ignored Austin completely.Austin quickly cleaned up the wound. Luckily, the wound was shallow and only needed two stitches.Austin set his things down a
Sebastian wasn’t expecting this as well. With furrowed brows, he took another whiff.It had a strange smell, but there wasn’t that initial wave of drowsiness that he had experienced when he first began using the scented tea leaves.Tamara took the tea leaves from him and gave them a try. Drowsiness immediately washed over her, and she struggled to keep her eyes open.Tamara threw the tea leaves into the rubbish bin before taking out the antidote tea leaves. One whiff of it made her drowsiness disappear.She turned to Sebastian with furrowed brows. “Your body is adapting to this too quickly. It worked before, but even the improved version is not doing the job now. This is a serious issue. Have you tried going to the doctor?”Sebastian saw how worried Tamara was and comforted her, “I did, but they were ineffective. This has been going on for years, and I’ve grown accustomed to it. Don’t worry.”How could Tamara not worry?Numerous illnesses could be brought on by chronic insomnia!
Tamara slapped her hand over her mouth in shock.Sebastian sat shirtless on a chair in the study room. Austin was standing directly in front of him, blocking Sebastian’s frame from her view.They were standing inches away from each other. Their close proximity could only leave so much room for the imagination to run wild.Tamara was shocked, and nasty thoughts started forming in her mind. She quickly shook them. She knocked on the door to announce her presence.Sebastian’s eyes narrowed, and he quickly put on his shirt.Fortunately, Austin had just finished rebandaging him. He turned and called out faintly, “Hello, Young Mrs. Lynch.”Tamara stared pointedly at them. “What…are you doing?”Why were two grown men so close to each other?Why was one standing and the other sitting?Sebastian quirked a brow. He observed Tamara’s shocked expression. “What are you thinking, Tamara?”Tamara blushed slightly.She couldn’t hide her emotions in time.That was awkward.Austin pushed up
The original personality should gain ownership of the body by vanquishing the other personality.“Did you think of something, Tammy?” Margot saw that Tamara was lost in thought. She asked anxiously, “If you know something, you have to tell me! Don’t keep it from me!”Tamara paused. She slowly raised her hand and signed, “I’m not sure how true this is, but could Benjamin’s sudden disappearance be related to his split personality treatment?”“Treatment?” Margot furrowed her brows. “Can split personality be treated? How? Make the two personalities join into one?”Tamara shook her head. “The only way to treat it is to vanquish one and let the other take over.”Margot’s jaw fell open. She looked at Tamara in disbelief. “How… How could this be? Which personality is he getting rid of? Which one will take over?”“Calm down, Margot. Recollect yourself and find Benjamin. It’s only been a short time. He couldn’t have left the city. Search the places that the two of you usually visit. I’m su
The bed was also adorned in striking white. Margot's bridal gown gradually slipped off, and her hair spread out behind her on the bed. Her smooth skin shone beneath the dazzling light.Benjamin stared at her. "Margot, you have to spend the rest of your life making up for your lies.""Okay," Margot agreed without hesitation.The temperature in the room rose, and the night had just begun.It was as Tamara said. Because of their tragic past, the heavens decided to bless them in this life. They lived happily ever after from that day onward.Benjamin successfully inherited the Inkling Corporation. A year later, Margot gave birth to a daughter. She resembled Benjamin and was as beautiful as a doll.Their little girl grew up in a loving family, and the love between Margot and Benjamin only grew with time. They developed Nammu Bay, transforming it into a popular tourist destination.Another year passed, and Tamara and Sebastian got married. The wedding was almost identical to the one fr
The newlywed walked into the wedding hall hand in hand.The wedding hall was also well-decorated. Shane, Trevor, Jacob, and Alex sat in the front row.The host congratulated the couple, and after the couple exchanged rings, the crowd erupted in cheers. The wedding went past quickly. And when Margot was led to her bridal room, she was still very much in a daze.Because of Margot's condition, she had to leave early and let Benjamin deal with the guests alone.As time passed, Margot grew more and more anxious. But she didn't dare move a muscle. Benjamin had told her to keep the veil on and wait for him.Margot had never been this obedient before. But she had no choice. Disobeying wouldn't do. What if her husband ran away?Just then, the door opened. Margot's heart tightened, and she immediately went tense in anticipation.A faint stench of alcohol wafted over, and she saw his shoes from under the veil.He was standing before her but made no move to greet her.Margot couldn't help
When the others saw Benjamin standing still in a daze, they all asked in confusion, "What's going on? Why did he stop?""What is he thinking about?""Did he lose his mind because he was too excited to meet his bride?"Someone made a joke, and others burst into laughter.Downstairs, Sebastian exchanged looks with Tamara, who was upstairs. His gaze returned to Benjamin.The wedding had been going on smoothly. But it seemed that Benjamin's memories might be their biggest challenge.Now that Benjamin had recovered his memories, what would he do next?However, Benjamin quickly came back to his senses. He walked forward calmly until he reached the door. As his gaze swept over Tamara and Natasha, a small smile appeared on his face.Tamara piped up, "Mr. Inkling, Nat and I had planned to set up some challenges for you. However, considering the hardships you and Margot have gone through, those challenges seem trivial in front of you. So, I thought, why not give you a clear path that led
"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. He turned to the last row of men and smiled. "I'll leave the first round to you."Those men were all eager to try. 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. When they looked up, they found that they were only halfway through. Some of them were already feeling tipsy!Sunlight spilled onto the drinks. A gentle breeze caused ripples on the liquid, resembling scattered stars.The men noticed the entrance was within arm's reach, and they gritted their teeth to endure the torture.Harris was th
The morning sunlight bathed the earth, casting a brilliant glow on every corner of Simmons Residence. Everyone's faces were filled with smiles. In the room, the styling team was already in position. They first helped Margot into the wedding gown and began styling her hair.Although Margot never decided on her bridal makeup, she did try each style. To surprise her, Benjamin accompanied her to try out the bridal makeup but kept the final choice from her.Now, dressed in the beautiful wedding gown, Margot remembered the makeup styles she had tried before, and a smile graced her face. Tamara and Natasha also changed into their bridesmaid dresses. The makeup artist was working on them when Alex walked in with a gentle smile. "Have you done your preparation for the challenges?"Tamara gave a thumbs up. "Don't worry, Mom. I won't let them take your daughter away easily."Alex giggled. "That won't do. We have to see if Margot agrees."Margot immediately exclaimed, "I'm all in favor!"
"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. Jack picked up a bottle and praised, "This is a good wine. It's at least 30 years old! You're going all out, Mr. Inkling."Benjamin's face carried a contented smile. "It's my big day, so let's all have a good time together."Jack gave him a thumbs up. "You're very generous, Mr. Inkling."The others laughed along.Benjamin turned to Sebastian and suddenly smiled. "Why are you so calm? When we go over tomorrow, I wonder what challenges Tamara has for you."Sebastian calmly muttered, "She'll only cause trouble for you."Benjamin cocked an eyebrow. "You're quite confident. I can't wait to see you eat your words tomorrow."Sebastian shrugg
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. He would still manage Moore Corporation while the other brothers shine in their respective fields."That's great! I'll have a powerful backer now. I can just mention your name if someone bullies me. As the cousin of the Moore Corporation's president, no one would dare lay thei
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. Everything was just a trick her mind had made up.After all this time, Margot finally felt fear.She held onto Tamara tightly. 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
