Jason, Jayden, and Jordan looked over.Jordan furrowed his eyebrows and sneered at Sebastian. “You’re Sebastian? The bastard who left Tammy?”Jayden chuckled. “No need for harsh words, Jordan. We just have to beat him to death.”Jason narrowed his eyes dangerously. “I’ve been itching for a fight recently. How I wish I can go back to Moore Corporation and take over the entire Custry Corporation. I’ll make sure to make this bastard homeless.”Sebastian stared at them coolly.His murderous intent was enough to send shivers down one spine.The four brothers were not people Sebastian could raise his fist against.Sebastian sighed helplessly. “Jason, Jayden, Jordan, Joseph, it’s my fault for abandoning Tammy back then. I apologize.”“Please don’t get chummy with us. We have nothing to do with you,” said Joseph with a huff.Jordan stalked closer with a dark look on his face. “I heard you’re good with your fists?”Jordan was a high-ranking officer and a good fighter, yet he was surpr
When Tamara saw this, the corners of her mouth twitched.“What is this, Uncle Jon?” Tamara sighed helplessly at her uncle.Jonathan chuckled. “It’s to celebrate you and Melly being discharged from the hospital. Of course, we have to make it a little more festive than normal.”Tamara sighed again. She held Melanie’s hand and led her to the limousine.The long queue of vehicles left the hospital, and the place returned to its peaceful state.“Hello, Grandma Moore!” Melanie greeted politely after she entered the Moore manor.Old Mrs. Moore observed the beautiful girl and exclaimed dreamily, “You look just like Tammy’s mom, Melly.”Tamara paused before giggling at this.That was true. Melly did look identical to her mother. Tamara would even go as far as to say Melanie looked more identical to her mother than she did.Tamara believed if her mother ever met Melanie, she would adore the little girl.“Melly!” Thomas chirped excitedly. He flew over and gave Melanie a bear hug. He eve
Tamara’s crystal clear eyes widened slightly as she hurried over. “James?”James was wearing a black windbreaker and looked as if he had lost a bunch of weight. However, he was still sporting his usual gentle smile. His eyes seemed to smile as he looked at her.“Tamara, long time no see.”Tamara pulled the door open and took a closer look at the man.It really had been ages since they last saw each other.She hadn’t seen him since what happened four years ago. Furthermore, the man seemed to have disappeared into thin air at that point. She had heard no news about him.James said softly, “I’d like to apologize for what happened all those years ago. I got close to you for an ulterior motive and even purposely put your life on the line. I’m really sorry.”Tamara suddenly smiled. “But if it hadn’t been for you, I would’ve died a long time ago.”Hearing that, James broke out into a grin. “So does that mean you’ve forgiven me?”Tamara smiled brightly at that. “I think we’ve evened t
After Tamara finished speaking, she spun on her heel and strode into the villa.Sebastian remained frozen. He trailed after her after snapping back to his senses. “Tammy?”However, Tamara was determined to ignore him and sped up.Sebastian sighed helplessly.It appeared that it’d take a long while to get Tamara back.…Once Tamara was inside, she told everyone that the visitor wasn’t Elijah. Sighs of relief echoed in the room.“Alright, let’s dig in. Who even cares, right? No one will be able to threaten our dear Tammy now,” Cheryl said.“That’s right.”Everyone agreed.The atmosphere in the dining room livened up.When it was evening, Margot called Tamara, who was playing with some toys with Melanie.“Tammy, I’m so upset! I got fucking cheated on!” Margot slurred out the words. It was evident that she had been drinking. She sounded choked up from the anger and hatred she was feeling.Tamara was stunned. “What happened? Where are you now?”Margot hiccuped. “I…I’m in Joker
She was not able to suppress her emotions and urges this time. She rushed up ahead.She had purposely taken note of the floor they had stopped on.When she got out of the elevator, she saw that there were two units on the same floor. She didn’t know which one they went in.As such, she decided to lean against the wall in between the two units and wait.Eventually, one of the doors opened, and Kayla walked out wearing a man’s shirt.She was carrying some garbage bags. Upon reaching the stairway, she dumped the garbage into a huge dumpster.Margot glared at her.Kayla was really pretty. There was something pure and angelic about her.However, Margot knew that if Kayla was really as pure as she looked, she wouldn’t have walked out wearing a man’s shirt.As if sensing her glare, Kayla looked up.“Are you…Margot Zimmerman? What are you doing here?” Kayla looked at her curiously. Margot ignored her. Instead, she barged into her unit.“Margot, what are you doing?” Kayla frowned,
She slowly released Benjamin’s collar and even helped him straighten it out. A moment later, she asked again, “Benjamin, are you being for real?”Benjamin did not respond, but his silence said it all.Margot picked at her lips. “Fine. Let’s get divorced, then. But you have to remember how much I can hold a grudge. You either hand me all of your property willingly, or I’ll do everything I can to destroy you. Pick.”Benjamin said coldly, “I’ll give you everything.”“Good. Let’s go to the marriage bureau right this second!”Margot spun on her heel and stormed toward the elevators. She looked emotionless as they made their way to the bureau. She couldn’t properly discern what she was feeling.It was true that she loved Benjamin, but she felt that love had dwindled.When he mentioned that he wanted to get a divorce, Margot could feel her heart break metaphorically, but it didn’t hurt as much as it was supposed to.After all, Margot had always been abandoned and cast aside since she
Benjamin’s split personality disorder had taken a toll on Margot’s sanity in the past.After the primary personality was eradicated, only the secondary one remained. Tamara thought that Benjamin’s secondary personality would love Margot wholeheartedly.Who knew that the bastard would act up after two years?What on earth happened in between?Why couldn’t they remain happy together?Tamara had the sudden urge to interrogate Benjamin right away. She wanted to know what caused him to behave this way.Margot laughed out loud, then started to cry. “Tammy, I’m so upset. He promised that he wouldn’t leave me and that he would love me! He’s such a liar! He divorced me and got together with Kayla!”Tammy hugged Margot, allowing her friend to cry her heart out.Exhausted from crying, Margot ended up falling asleep.Tamara tucked her friend in properly, then walked out of the room silently. She called her aunt on her phone to tell her that she wouldn’t be able to make it back home. She h
Other than Kayla, no one else in the private room knew what background Benjamin came from.All the men were hesitant at first. Benjamin was the person brought over by Kayla, after all. They did not want to offend the man.However, after spotting the beautiful woman before them, they couldn’t care less about offending Benjamin.The man who spoke nodded. “Deal! Let’s hope you won’t regret this, sweetheart.”Tamara smiled, yet her crystal eyes were cold as they looked over at Benjamin. “Mr. Inkling, you don’t mind, do you? You’re the only person I know here, after all. I don’t think it’d be fair for anyone else to take the beating.”No hint of emotion showed on Benjamin’s face. In fact, he hadn’t even spared Tamara a second look. He merely replied coldly, “Whatever.”Tamara sneered inwardly. “What a fucking bastard,” she thought. She was going to avenge Margot by teaching him a lesson!There were a couple of bottles on the table. Tamara grabbed one and poured wine into two glasses.
