James ignored Sebastian’s angry gaze. He smiled provocatively and said, “Sebastian, Tamara and I already had our wedding. She is my wife now. I gave her what you failed to do!”Sebastian’s breathing grew heavy, and he glanced behind James again. The wind had picked up suddenly, and it chilled them to the bone.“You can leave if you want to. The boat is over there, but let her go. This has nothing to do with her,” Sebastian growled lowly.James sneered, “How could I let her go? I want to take her with me!”Sebastian narrowed his eyes at James coldly, “Is that so? Have you asked for her opinion?”“Her opinion doesn’t matter. As long as she is mine, that’s enough!” James pulled Tamara with him.Sebastian sneered at him, “You don’t even care about what she wants. What do you like about her? Her body?”Sebastian must have hit a nerve. James glared at Sebastian angrily. “You’re wrong! I love her! I love everything about her! I was the one who fell for her first. Why did she choose you
James looked at the tears streaming down Tamara’s face and let out a bitter smile. “So you finally lowered your pride and begged me…but it was all for him…”Tamara closed her eyes. “Don’t hurt him, James. There’s no escape. Are you going to keep going down the wrong path?”James looked at her with pain. “Am I really going down the wrong path? Did I make a mistake?”Tamara composed herself. “You could have met someone better, but you killed Jessica. What did she do wrong? What did I do wrong?”“Is it just because I don’t love you?” Tamara shuddered.James was stunned. Just then, a strong gust of wind came from behind him. Before he could react, someone grabbed him by the neck and pushed him down to the ground!Tamara was instantly freed.The next moment, she fell into a pair of warm and strong arms. The arms held her tightly as if they were trying to make them become one.“Everything is alright now, Tammy,” sounded a deep voice.Her bound hands were untied, and she was set free
Tamara was exhausted.She had been on edge all this time. When Sebastian carried her back to the hotel, she immediately dozed off as soon as her body hit the bed. She didn’t even have the strength to clean herself up and change out of her clothes.However, she vaguely felt that someone was moving her body. Something cold was occasionally placed against her face. Tamara forced her eyes open. She relaxed and fell back asleep when she realized it was Sebastian.It was noon when she woke up.When Tamara awoke again, the sun shone brightly through the curtains. Tamara felt warm all over. She lazily got out of bed and saw a handsome man sitting on the couch.As the sunlight touched the man, it enveloped him in a warm halo, making him appear like a divine angel. He kept his gaze lowered, and his attention focused on his laptop.His features were as perfectly sculpted as ever. With his lips pursed, the man looked to be in deep thought. His fingers danced expertly across his keyboard, tak
James had escaped!Shit!The security here was tight, and he was injured! How did he manage to escape?Sebastian’s face darkened. “Check the surveillance cameras. How did he escape?”The bodyguard felt shivers running down his spine. He wiped away his cold sweat. “When we came to bring him food, we noticed he was unconscious. So I asked my buddy to keep watch over him, and I left to get a doctor. But when I returned, my buddy was knocked out, and James was nowhere to be found.”“Were you the only two keeping watch over him?” Sebastian narrowed his eyes.“No…no. We have a few other people. But James was fast, and he knew these streets well. We lost him during the chase.” The bodyguard swallowed hard.“You useless piece of shit!” cursed Sebastian. He gave the bodyguard a cold glance. “Get the fuck out of my sight.”The bodyguard immediately left to continue searching.Tamara and Helena exchanged a look.“Where could James possibly escape to?” Helena found herself asking.She d
Sebastian chuckled lowly. He tilted Tamara’s head up and kissed her.As the sun set on the horizon, his men came to inform them they had found James’ whereabouts. He was indeed trying to escape from Biarus but was caught just as he was about to board the ship. He was now going against Anthony.After receiving the news, Sebastian and Tamara rushed over immediately. The waves crashed against the reef, and the cold wind blew over them. It sent chills down one’s spine.Sebastian and Tamara got out of the car with Helena trailing behind them.“Miss...” Anthony found himself greeting when he saw Tamara.Tamara pursed her lips and did not respond. She observed Anthony before her gaze fell on James, who was not far from them.The white suit James had was eye-catching. The darkness around him was like a beast, lying in wait to swallow him whole. Tamara could feel his gaze on her, filled with passion and lust. James didn’t bother hiding his emotions from her.Tamara’s brows furrowed tig
Helena was hell-bent on making James suffer a fate worse than death. So, after crippling all of his limbs, she stopped shooting and put away her gun. Tamara walked over.Helena turned around and said to her, “Tammy, I’ll be heading back first.”Tamara nodded. “I’ll send someone to accompany you.”As she looked around, Anthony stepped forward. “I’ll accompany her.”Helena glanced at Anthony and furrowed her brows, but she kept silent and walked toward a car.Anthony followed behind her. His tall figure almost completely enveloped her small frame.Tamara gave them a glance before turning her attention to James, who was lying on the beach. Even though his body was twitching, his gaze was fixed on her.“You’re cruel, Tamara,” muttered James faintly.Tamara retorted, “You’re one to speak.”James chuckled. “Really? When I think about it, I am indeed quite cruel. Jessica did like me, but she didn’t like me enough. When you like someone, shouldn’t you be willing to die for them? I
“I’ll call them now to check if the children were really poisoned. We will know once we check.” Sebastian calmed Tamara down. He didn’t want to see her get swept away by her emotions.The cold wind blew over them, and Tamara calmed down a little upon hearing Sebastian’s words. She released James.James looked at them with amusement. “I was able to secretly poison your family. What’s so hard about poisoning a few unconscious children?”His words riled Tamara up again. She forced herself to calm down and glared at him angrily. “James, you can’t deceive me. You never had the chance to poison them.”Sebastian held her arm. “I’ll make the call first.”He took out his phone and called Jerome. After giving out some instructions, they waited patiently for the news.The results of a blood test would take some time to come back.James sneered and lay on the ground. The wind blowing against him sobered him up. “If I can’t have my happy ending, neither can any of you.”“Tamara, you were se
Night fell. The lights from the ship were blinding. They shone down on James, clearly displaying his relief at dying.Tamara’s hand trembled, and she glared at James. Her eyes burned with anger, but another emotion also took root in her gaze. Tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably.“Tammy,” Sebastian said as he pulled her into his embrace. He could feel her trembling against him. Carefully, Sebastian took the gun from her and whispered, “I just received news from the hospital. Our children are okay. They were not poisoned.”Tamara’s eyes flew open. “What?”They weren’t poisoned…So James didn’t inject them with another type of poison?Sebastian noticed Tamara’s confusion. He nodded, “You heard me. They weren’t poisoned again. Our children are safe.”They were safe. They were alive!Tamara cried happy tears, and the gentle breeze gently caressed them away from her face.The bodyguards released James.He lay still on the beach. Blood was still flowing out of him, staining
