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
Tamara was taken aback, causing her steps to slow.At this moment, the elevator doors opened. Simon walked in, followed by the man with a mask over his face.Tamara could not stop staring at the man. She wanted to rip the mask off his face and see for herself.“Little Mute, aren’t you coming in?” Simon shot her a teasing look as he called out to her.Only then did Tamara snap back to her senses. She walked into the elevator, walking past the tall figure. She stopped breathing for a moment.Her eyes started to water, but she hurriedly blinked her tears away and tried to calm herself down.After all, Simon had told her that the mysterious man wasn’t Sebastian.It was just someone else from the Custry family.Tamara couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile. It turned out that she missed Sebastian so much that she ended up mistaking someone else for him. She couldn’t help her wants, after all.“I have to calm down,” she repeated to herself.Sebastian was in Clacton, so after leav
“Ah! A ghost!”Yareli shrieked. Then, she covered her head with both hands and ran around, trying to hide. She kept looking at Tamara with fear in her eyes.Tamara’s beautiful brows furrowed at the sight. She couldn’t believe that Yareli had actually gone insane and to such a hellish extent.However, if a person had really gone insane, it would only make sense for them to not recognize people. When Yareli first saw her, the woman’s reaction was intense.Tamara’s delicate lips curled into a mocking smile. She crossed her arms and watched as Yareli acted insane before her eyes.In the end, Yareli found a corner to burrow in. She covered her head with both hands, and her entire body seemed to be trembling.“Don’t come any closer! You’re a ghost!”She peeked out to eye Tamara for a short moment, then hurriedly retracted her gaze as if she was incredibly afraid.Tamara merely looked at her, thinking that the woman’s actions were ridiculous.A moment later, she said, “Mrs. Lynch, yo
Tamara did not hold back as she slapped Yareli across the face. Her crystal eyes shone with hostility as she threatened, “You’d better think properly before you speak. Do you really want to experience the pain once more?”Hearing that, Yareli shrunk back hurriedly. With wide eyes, she said, “Tamara, I won’t tell you where that son of yours is no matter what! Over my dead body!”“You’re that eager to die, are you?”Tamara said coldly, then reached into her bag to get the scented tea leaves from before. At this moment, Yareli suddenly got up and threw herself out the window without hesitation!Tamara was stunned. She hurriedly leaned over the railings and looked down to see Yareli’s body sprawled across the floor as blood steadily pooled around her.Tamara ran downstairs and walked up to the bleeding woman. “You can’t die now. Tell me, where the hell is my son?”She was so close to the truth. She was so close to getting her son back! Yareli couldn’t die without giving her anything!
Tamara staggered and fell onto the ground as she stared at the dead bodies. It took her ages to snap back to her senses.Her son…Where on earth was her missing son?Why couldn’t they tell her anything? Why?Tears began to build in her eyes and streamed down her face. She sobbed desperately, feeling that the situation was hopeless.“What the…They died?”Suddenly, a voice rang out from behind.Tamara turned her back and found that Simon was a short distance away from her. The man who he proclaimed to be Young Mr. Custry was a few steps behind him as well.“What are you guys doing here?” Tamara wiped her tears and got up, forcing herself to calm down.There must be other ways to locate her missing son. She was certain of it.Simon cocked an eyebrow. “Shouldn’t I be asking you that? I thought you and Sebastian were divorced. What are you doing here? Plus…”He swept his eyes over the two dead bodies on the ground. “It looks like you’ve killed two people.”Tamara’s expression wa
Tamara was taken back for a moment. She turned toward Simon with an odd glint in her eyes. Simon grew a bit antsy as time went on.Simon couldn’t help but swallow nervously. “Little Mute, why are you looking at me like that?”Tamara merely smiled. “You’re really handsome.”With that, she spun on her heel and left the manor to get into her car.After watching her leave, Simon let out a huge sigh of relief. Then, he turned toward Sebastian. “I was honestly seconds away from shitting my pants. You don’t think she noticed anything, do you?”“It’s not odd for her to be suspicious,” Sebastian said. His Tammy was really smart, after all.Simon was rendered silent for a moment.Then, he looked over at Sebastian and asked, “So, what on earth are you sneaking around for?”Sebastian merely turned away and went back to stare at Tamara’s car, which was already a distance away. Then, he said coldly, “Get rid of them.”Simon was startled. “What are you talking about?”However, Sebastian had
“Thomas, Mommy came home a little later than usual today. Have you had dinner?” After Tamara changed into a more comfortable set of clothes, she asked in a soft voice.Caleb nodded, fixing his round, obsidian eyes on Tamara’s figure. He looked oddly attached to her.Tamara couldn’t help feeling that something was off with her son. However, Thomas had been nothing but a good boy, so she didn’t think much of it.“That’s good to know. I’m going to call it a night now. Today’s been exhausting.” Tamara walked over and planted a small kiss on Caleb’s cheek. Then, she made her way into her room.Caleb touched his cheek, where Tamara had kissed him. A small blush appeared on his fair complexion.Was Mommy this affectionate with Thomas all the time?He was suddenly incredibly envious of his brother.He listened to his surroundings quietly. After noticing how silent everything was inside Mommy’s room, he put his book down and went to peek inside. He saw that Mommy seemed to be staring at
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
