Tamara was stunned at how thoughtful and concerned Thomas was. The little boy was only four years old, yet his emotional intelligence far exceeded those of his peers.He wanted to find his brother.“Alright. We’ll look for him together.” Tamara nodded, smiling at her son.Thomas nodded firmly. “I’m sure we’ll find him.”After the matter was resolved, the conversation moved on to other topics. They went to the living room after they finished their meal.Night came.Tamara returned to her room, which was as roomy as they came. It was completely pink. According to Jonathan, the room had to resemble one befitting a princess like her.At first, Tamara had vehemently refused it. She couldn’t help but think that the pink decorations were childish.However, she managed to get used to it after a while.She sat in a chair on the balcony, looking out at the setting sun. She had a glass of red wine with her. She grabbed it and took a sip.She shut her eyes for a moment, eyes gleaming wit
Tamara’s eyes grew cold. Who was spying on her?However, when she had turned to inspect her surroundings, the gaze on her had promptly disappeared.Tamara got into her car and drove to the hotel.She reserved a presidential suite on the top floor. She noticed another person walking into the room next to hers after exiting the elevator.Tamara did not seem bothered. After entering her room with Thomas, she said to him, “Wait for me here. I’ll be out for a short while.”Thomas blinked his dark eyes up at his mother. “Mommy, what will you be doing?”“Just some errands. I’ll be back in a flash. Don’t go anywhere unattended, got it?” Tamara said gently.Thomas had always been mature. When they were abroad, the little boy had been nothing but independent. He did not cause Tamara much worry.Thomas nodded. “Alright. Come back soon, Mommy!”Tamara replied, “Okay.”She kissed Thomas’s cheek, spun on her heel, and left the room.When Thomas heard the elevator ding, he smiled from ear
They looked so much alike, and even the way they held themselves was almost the same.Something suddenly occurred to Thomas. Wasn’t he here to look for his brother in Londsville with Mommy?Who would’ve thought that he would be the one to find him instead!To be precise, it seemed that Thomas had found his brother ages ago. He just hadn’t realized it yet!As he was contemplating the matter, Caleb showed him a text on his phone.Thomas was initially confused, but when he read the text, he was suddenly taken aback.“I can’t speak.”Thomas couldn’t help but worry. He couldn’t believe that his brother couldn’t talk. How did this happen?“Where have you been? Mommy and I have been looking everywhere for you,” Thomas said straight away.Caleb frowned. “Don’t tell her that we’ve met.”Caleb seemed to be really against the idea.Thomas was taken aback. “Why not? Don’t you miss Mommy?”Caleb’s breathing paused, then he typed, “I don’t want to see her.”His mother was a horrible wom
When Tamara saw Simon, she was certain that the man from before had been Sebastian.“I’m looking for Sebastian.”Tamara said in a soft voice, her eyes fixed on Simon.Simon was taken aback for a moment. He scrutinized her, then asked, “You’re not mute anymore?”Tamara’s beautiful brows furrowed. “Sebastian Lynch’s inside. I need to see him. Move.”Simon leaned his entire body against the doorframe. With a casual look, he watched Tamara with amusement. “There’s no Sebastian Lynch here. Only my brother and I are here, you know. My brother is Young Mr. Custry. Do you know him?”Young Mr. Custry?Tamara was momentarily surprised. There were three branches to the Custry family. The first one had only borne a daughter, the second one had two sons, and the third one had two daughters.Four years ago, Sandy Checkers, who belonged to the first branch of the Custry family, had suddenly appeared in Londsville and claimed Sebastian to be her son.Tamara had received news that Sebastian al
“Caleb Custry, what’s on your mind?” Sebastian walked up to his son and pulled out the chair next to him to sit in. His gaze was fixed on his son’s face.Caleb turned toward Sebastian and remained silent for a moment. Then, he raised his hands and signed, “What does Mommy look like?”Sebastian was taken aback by the question. He hadn’t expected Caleb to ask him something like that. Over the years, Sebastian had tried to tell his son more about Tamara.However, Caleb seemed determined to believe all the lies Sandy spouted about her.Since Caleb could remember, Sandy had drilled into his head that his birth mother didn’t want to raise him because he was born mute.Caleb had believed everything Sandy said.That was something that frustrated Sebastian to no end. He had tried to tell Caleb otherwise countless times, but his son wouldn’t believe him.At this moment, Sebastian could see tears blurring Caleb’s big eyes. Sebastian said in a low voice, “Your mother is really beautiful and
Caleb got up to get himself a glass of water. At this moment, Simon said, “Caleb, go get the takeout. Your daddy’s in a meeting right now.”A cold expression appeared on Caleb’s face. “Why can’t you do it?”Simon waved his phone at the little boy. “I’m trying to find you an aunt, now hush!”Caleb was rendered speechless.He went to get the takeout with a sullen look on his face. He was still waiting for the elevator. As he was waiting, he suddenly recalled that Thomas had told him that he was going to get the takeout as well. He was staying in the same hotel, but which floor could he possibly be on?Thomas had just arrived at the exit when his stomach began to churn painfully. He dashed to the toilet before knocking on the bedroom door. “Mommy, could you assist me in getting the takeout? My stomach hurts!”“Alright.”Tamara’s soft voice rang out. Then, she got out of the room and went outside.Upon leaving the room and opening the door, she saw “Thomas” receiving takeout from a
Thomas was standing in the toilet at the time, a panicked expression on his face.Mommy had brought Caleb home and had mistaken his brother for him! What on earth should they do?If he revealed himself, he would only end up exposing Caleb’s existence.They looked identical. Would it scare Mommy?Thomas paused for a moment to reflect. Caleb had some misunderstandings about Mommy, so this was an excellent opportunity for him to get to know her better!The odds were in their favor!However, Thomas would have to suffer just a little. He had to spend more time in the toilet.Excitement appeared on Thomas’ face. He stuck his ear to the door and listened quietly to everything that was happening outside.Caleb had been put in a precarious position. Thomas wondered how his brother was going to deal with it.Tamara looked at her son with a suspicious expression on her face. “Why aren’t you speaking, Thomas?”Caleb parted his mouth slightly. Just as he was in a dilemma, his stomach su
Caleb’s face shone with panic, but the emotion was quick to dissipate. He began to sign, “I didn’t like the food, so I got the food delivery guy to take it back.”Simon was taken aback. “You didn’t like the food? Do you even know what we ordered?”Caleb was silent for a moment and avoided eye contact with his uncle.Simon could not believe what had happened. However, since Caleb had already sent back the order, he couldn’t do much. All he could do was put down another order.Caleb heaved a sigh of relief as he watched Simon order them food.However, while Caleb’s dilemma was settled, Thomas’ wasn’t.Thomas stared at the two takeout meals on the dining table with a blank look in his eyes. Then, he turned to look at Tamara and tried to appease her. “Mommy, I just wanted to try some new items on the menu…”Tamara was rendered speechless.Her son was acting strange. She couldn’t help but feel Thomas’ forehead with one hand to ensure that he wasn’t burning up.Thomas had sobbed in
