Sebastian’s dark eyes landed on the person’s face before he looked into the distance. He noticed a car not far from them. He could see Sandy smiling softly at him as the car door was opened.Sebastian’s eyes narrowed when he saw Sandy, and his lips thinned into a fine line.Sebastian got down from the car and approached Sandy.When Sandy saw this, she immediately hopped off her car. She observed her son. He was tall, lean, and handsome to boot. He looked like an exact copy of Hugo in his younger days!Sandy was buzzing with excitement. She would never have guessed she had given birth to a son back then. If only she had known sooner.If she did, there wouldn’t be any competition over the Custry Corpoation’s inheritance. Their family would have it in the palm of their hands.Sandy felt remorse, but admiration crossed her eyes when she looked at Sebastian.It was still not too late for that.“What business do you have with me, Mrs. Custry?” When Sebastian stopped in front of Sandy
“If you knew you were the Custry family’s heir, why didn’t you come back to us? What’s so appealing about this dreadful place? ST Corporation can’t even measure up to the Custry Corporation’s branch office. You would have inherited the Custry Corporation if you had returned sooner. You would have inherited an enormous fortune. Why didn’t you come back to us?” asked Sandy.Sandy couldn’t get her head around it. The Custry family was ranked as Clacton’s second-best family. No one could ever compete with Sebastian if he returned with them. Nonetheless, Sebastian chose to remain in this dreadful location and was even hellbent on taking care of that small company. What was the reason for this?Sebastian snorted. A look of disdain crossed his eyes. “If I were to go back so suddenly, wouldn’t the entire Custry family be in an uproar?”Sandy was taken aback. “However, you are a member of the Custry family and have the opportunity to inherit the Custry Corporation. Do you know how happy I wa
When Tamara first arrived at the Lynch family, Ms. Thompson was the first person to treat her well. Ms. Thompson never once looked at Tamara any differently, not even after learning of Tamara’s muteness. Instead, she only ever felt pity for the poor girl.Tamara closed the door with teary eyes. She took in a deep breath and checked the time. It was still early. Tamara went to the closet.She had on a dress when she emerged. Tamara’s cream-colored dress highlighted her gentleness. She looked like a mature beauty when she put a coat over it.Tamara pulled out her phone and sent a text to Anthony. Soon, he came knocking on her door. “What are you planning to do, miss?” Anthony gave Tamara a tense look.He felt something was off with Tamara. This time, it wasn’t because of Sebastian. It seemed to be something even more serious than that.Tamara offered a small smile. “How long have you been by my side?”Anthony didn’t even have to think twice about it. “It has been ten years.”Tam
When Tamara disappeared around the corner, a car was rolling down the streets.Jonathan was driving down the road when he saw a familiar pregnant lady. When he wanted to take a closer look, the pregnant lady had left.Jonathan stopped his car.“What’s wrong?” Cheryl, who was in the backseat, asked in confusion. Old Mrs. Moore was sitting beside her.“Why did you stop the car? Hurry up and drive. I want to see my granddaughter soon.” Old Mrs. Moore was impatient.Jonathan furrowed his brows. “I thought I saw Tammy.”“What?” Cheryl was puzzled. She turned around to take a look at the back but saw nothing.Jonathan reversed the car and drove around the corner.When he left the area, he saw Tamara getting into a cab.“It’s Tammy!” exclaimed Jonathan as he pointed at the figure not far from them. “Where is she going?”Old Mrs. Moore demanded shakily, “Go. Catch up to her.”“Okay.” Jonathan started his car and pursued the cab, but a traffic jam and a few other cars got in the way.
Elijah gave Tamara’s pallid face a long look. His gaze subconsciously shifted downward, landing on her belly. Her belly was enormous, and it was clear that she was due to give birth at any moment.He snickered inwardly.He wanted to watch the Simmons family fall. He didn’t care about those unborn babies!He waved a bodyguard over, who had some matches in hand.Tamara glanced over at the bodyguard, then turned to look at Elijah. Fear suddenly struck her. She held a hand over her belly and looked at Elijah pleadingly. She typed on her phone frantically. “Can’t this wait until I’ve given birth? The children are innocent! They don’t know anything.”“I’ve always been one to nip problems in the bud before they grow into bigger problems. If you want to complain, Tamara, you can blame no one but yourself for being born as Jacob Simmons’ daughter,” Elijah said coldly, “He stole the love of my life, so how can I possibly let him off easy?”“Why then did you attempt to burn my mother to dea
The anxiety and fear inside Sebastian grew as he answered the call.“Young Mr. Lynch, Miss Simmons has gone missing. She used some scented tea leaves to make me pass out, and then she left by herself!” Anthony’s voice trembled with panic through the phone.Sebastian stopped breathing for a second. A splitting headache plagued him, causing him to sway where he stood. “Search everywhere. Check the surveillance. We have to find her!”Anthony replied, “I’m checking the surveillance footage right now. She appears to have taken a cab to the city’s outskirts. Why would Miss Simmons go somewhere like that?”Sebastian could not process what Anthony was telling him. All he could think about was that Tamara had gotten a leg over Anthony and left by herself.He hung up the call right away and rushed out of the café.“Seb, where are you going?” Sandy immediately followed behind him after noticing his frantic behavior.Sebastian, on the other hand, did not bother to entertain her. He started
“Mom!”Jonathan fought his way free of the bodyguards and rushed to Old Mrs. Moore. Then he and his bodyguard helped her into the car.Jonathan glared at Elijah. “You bastard. Karma will bite you in the ass for this!”Elijah snorted coldly, then watched with displeasure as they left. He turned back to cast another look at the factory. He thought it was an absolute shame that his plan had not succeeded.He couldn’t be too heavy-handed with the Moore family just yet. It was a shame that they had rescued Tamara.Elijah’s expression darkened. He made a call on his phone. “It’s your time to shine. Remember, I expect you to provide me with satisfying results.”Then, he hung up. He chuckled coldly, then left in his car.…At this moment, on the road.Sebastian sped down the road at lightning speed. It looked as if he hoped he could teleport to Tamara right this second.His eyes were red, and his handsome face had turned pale. His thin lips were pressed together, and he was suffering
When Sandy heard what Sebastian said, her eyes lit up with glee. Then, she nodded. “Alright, I’ll send my men to rescue her. You’ll have to go to the hospital now.”Sebastian’s tense expression suddenly went slack after that. The intense headache plagued him once more. Unable to handle the pain any longer, he blacked out.…It was frantic inside the hospital.In two different operating rooms, emergency surgeries were being performed.Cheryl walked over with a worried expression on her face. “Mom has been attended to, and everything is fine. She’ll wake up soon. How is Tammy doing?”Jonathan replied, “The doctor managed to awaken her. She’s delivering the babies as of right now.”Only then did Cheryl calm down a little. As long as Tamara hadn’t been poisoned and could wake up without any problems, everything should be fine.“Elijah’s so despicable! That insane man can do anything and not feel any remorse!” Cheryl couldn’t help but grit her teeth as she spoke about the evil man.
