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.
Old Mrs. Moore’s wrinkled face was filled with concern. Seeing that one of the babies was under Cheryl’s care, she walked over to get a closer look. “This one looks so much like Alex.”Jonathan and Cheryl exchanged glances before letting out helpless sighs.…In the operating room upstairs, Sandy waited anxiously by the door. At this moment, a bodyguard walked up to her and reported, “Mrs. Custry, Tamara had given birth to triplets. Jonathan Moore and his wife are looking after one, one was sent to get checked over, and the last one was regrettably a stillborn.”“She had triplets? That mute’s really something, isn’t she?” Hearing that, Sandy couldn’t help but feel surprised. At the thought of the stillborn, she frowned. “Think of something to get your hands on two of those babies. They’re Seb’s kids, after all. They have the Custry family’s blood running through their veins! I will not allow them to be brought up by a mute woman as their mother!”“Roger that.”The bodyguards turn
Yareli began to panic. “You can’t just cast her out! She’s your daughter! She’s an integral part of the Custry family, is she not?”Sandy regarded her coldly. In contrast to Yareli’s hysteria, Sandy appeared very calm and collected.Yareli tightened her hold over the baby. “As long as you promise not to cast Joanne out and swear that you’ll get Sebastian to marry her, I’ll hand this baby to you right away!”Sandy was taken aback. The idea of Anne and Seb getting engaged was a good one.If that happened, Anne wouldn’t be cast out of the family, and they could get Seb to return to the Custry family. It was like killing two birds with one stone!“Fine. It’s a deal.”After a moment’s contemplation, Sandy agreed.Yareli said, “I don’t believe you. I’ve prepared a contract and everything. You have to get Sebastian to sign it, then get Anne’s signature. Only then will I trust that you won’t go back on your word.”Sandy’s brows began to furrow. “Yareli Baiss, let’s get things straight.
“Dad!”William watched as Old Mr. Lynch convulsed violently. He wanted to struggle out of the bodyguards’ holds, but they were too strong.“Please send my father to the hospital. He fell! Please, I’m begging you!” William looked at the bodyguards pleadingly.The bodyguards exchanged glances with each other, but none of them moved. They only heeded Sandy’s instructions.However, Sandy had already left.Old Mr. Lynch had fallen to the floor and wouldn’t stop convulsing. Intense pain filled his chest, preventing him from breathing. However, he couldn’t seem to feel the pain at all. All he could think about was that Sebastian hadn’t been a true Lynch all this time.William and Yareli had worked together to trick him for decades!He had taught his grandson diligently and loved him very much. He couldn’t believe that he wasn’t even a Lynch!Anger filled his heart. Old Mr. Lynch spat out a mouthful of blood, then closed his eyes. He stopped breathing moments later.“Dad!”William
Sebastian read the health report. Everything had been stated clearly.However, disbelief still flashed in his eyes.Tamara had lost her voice due to poisoning, after all. How could her muteness be passed down to her kids?It had to be false information.When Sandy noticed that Sebastian still wouldn’t believe her, she took the health report from him and placed it aside. “Seb, don’t forget what you promised me before.”Sebastian’s breathing stopped. His eyes turned red as he said, “I want to see Tammy…”He could get her to explain everything to him once he saw her. He could ask her why she had left.She would definitely explain everything clearly.Sebastian did not trust anyone else but her.Sandy continued, “Seb, you’ve already promised me you’ll divorce her, return to Clacton with me, and integrate with the Custry family. Those were the conditions I agreed to when you asked me to save Tamara. You can’t go back on your word. Otherwise, I’ll make sure to make her pay for everyt
Not only was Tamara shocked, but even Jonathan, Cheryl, and Old Mrs. Moore were equally surprised.“Tammy, your voice… Can you speak now?” Jonathan asked in a cautious tone, worried that he would say something to trigger Tamara’s sorrow.Tamara covered her mouth with her hands. She did not dare to attempt to speak. Her eyes gradually watered.“Don’t cry. Oh, my darling granddaughter. You’ve just given birth! Crying will damage your eyes,” Old Mrs. Moore consoled as she hurriedly wiped Tamara’s tears away.Her babies! She had given birth to her babies!Tamara searched the room for them before noticing the crib next to her. She leaned over with difficulty and saw a baby with its mouth wrapped around its fingers.Why was there only one?Tamara was taken aback. She glanced over at Jonathan in confusion.Jonathan felt a bit wrong-footed. After hesitating, he decided to explain, “You gave birth to triplets. One of them was stillborn, and the other...has gone missing.”Missing? What
