As Joseph spoke, he moved toward Jordan’s room.“Stop right there!”Before he could take any more steps forward, Cheryl stopped him.She walked up to him and smacked his arm. “Why are you such a busybody? You just love being surrounded by drama, don’t you? If I remember correctly, a young lady sent you a gift, didn’t she? You should go out on dates with her instead of messing with Jordan’s love life.”Joseph was rendered speechless.He was merely curious. Why wouldn’t anyone let him take a peek at who Jordan’s love interest was?Cheryl dragged him back to his seat.Then, she shifted her gaze toward Jason, Jayden, Tamara, and the others. “None of you are allowed to disturb them.”Tamara smiled. “Understood. We won’t do anything to mess around with Jordan in the meantime. After all, it’s unusual for him to bring a girl home.”Cheryl’s expression warmed. “You’re the best, Tammy.”Joseph was silent.Was Cheryl indirectly implying that he was horrible?…At this moment, in Jord
Dewy swallowed nervously. Jordan’s firm, perfectly sculpted pecs were right before her eyes. They were mere inches away from her face. One small misstep, and she would find her face pressed against his chest!Dewy’s eyes seemed to glimmer. Her hand slipped. But just as she was about to make contact with Jordan’s chest, she felt a touch on her shoulder. She was lifted and moved away.“I’ll do it myself,” Jordan said in a deep tone, pushing her away and moving to take the bandage from her hands.When Dewy reacted, she blinked and exclaimed, “I can’t let you do that!”Jordan turned toward her and stared into her eyes deeply. His gaze felt a little oppressive. “Why not?”Dewy blinked, then tightened her grip on the bandages. “You don’t know how to control your strength. You need to be gentle, or you’ll hurt yourself. Just let me do it.”If Jordan bandaged himself, how on earth was Dewy going to get a taste of heaven?After all, she did not have many opportunities to be in such pro
As soon as the door swung open, a group of people tumbled over each other and landed on the floor. Fortunately, Jordan was able to sidestep the chaos and even pulled Dewy to safety beside him.Joseph was the first to fall onto the floor, followed by Jason, Tamara, Jonathan, and Cheryl. Sebastian could be seen lingering in the back as well.Jordan was rendered speechless.“What are you guys doing?”Jordan looked at them exasperatedly. He couldn’t fathom how ridiculous everyone appeared with their ears pressed up against the door from the outside.Joseph did a backflip and straightened up. Then, he dusted off some imaginary dust on his clothes and said to Cheryl, “Mom, didn’t you say Grandma was here? I don’t see her anywhere!”Jason cleared his throat. “Mom must have been mistaken. I think we should look for Grandma elsewhere.”Cheryl said, “Well, I’m getting old, after all. Maybe my eyes aren’t as sharp as they used to be.”Tamara remained silent.How was she supposed to defen
Joseph turned toward Tamara right away. “Hey, what’s that supposed to mean? You knew about that girl before any of us?”Tamara nodded. “That’s right. But I only knew her name. I have never seen her before until today. No wonder Jordan fell for her. She has such exquisite features and has an ethereal feel about her. She’s so adorable.”Jordan looked stunned. “You think she’s cute?”Tamara didn’t expect him to ask, but she nodded nonetheless. “Yes, I only saw her briefly, but I could tell from her adoring gaze that she’s into you. Jordan, don’t mess up this great opportunity.”Jordan cleared his throat, looking immensely embarrassed. However, he was quick to regain his composure and said, “We’re…”“Gosh, stop talking about how impossible having a relationship with her will be! You need to put in work and effort to make it work! After giving her a shot, I’m sure you’ll find that there’s potential in a budding relationship with her.”Tamara was quick to shoot down his reasoning and h
The entertainment industry had an abundance of individuals with scandalous behavior. In cases where someone had a so-called “wife” from the film crew, avoiding scandalous incidents relied on everyone performing their role proficiently and concealing it appropriately.However, it was too sordid.This implied that the actor’s “wife” would be replaced whenever the film crew got replaced.With that in mind, Joseph immediately shook his head. He thought it was impossible.Jason was not scummy like that.After Tamara heard Joseph rationalize everything, she also shook her head subconsciously. “Impossible.”Joseph furrowed his brows and looked curious. “Then what on earth happened? Who did he get married to? How did I get a sister-in-law without knowing anything about it?”Everyone was frowning as well.Jordan said, “Since we’re all curious, we should just ask him about it directly.”“But it’s obvious that Jason’s not keen on explaining anything to us.” Tamara frowned, then said, “Fu
Tamara had been saddened when Old Mrs. Moore treated her like her mother, Alex, but now, she would rather her grandmother continue to think of her as her mother rather than completely forget about her.Her grandma was her closest living relative.Sebastian looked at Tamara with pity, then pulled her into his arms.The three kids were sensitive to the odd tension in the air and immediately asked, “Mommy, Daddy, what happened?”Sebastian said in a low voice, “Your great grandma’s sick. Don’t disturb her, okay? Go to your room.”The kids exchanged glances, then nodded. “Alright, we’ll go upstairs.”Sebastian hummed in acknowledgment.Then, his gaze fell onto Tamara’s face, then said, “Don’t be sad. You’ve already mentally prepared yourself for this moment after knowing about her condition, right? If she gets forcefully treated, she’ll only suffer in pain. We should let nature take its course. After getting this disease, your grandma will probably forget most of her worries and pain
At this moment, in the courtyard.Tamara had gradually calmed down. Sebastian wiped the tears from her face gently and looked at her with pity and love in his eyes.“Tammy.”Jayden walked over and looked at her with concern. “Dad didn’t reveal who you really are.”Tamara blinked and instantly understood what Jayden meant.“Alright, I understand.”Tamara pondered silently, “Perhaps Uncle Jon didn’t want to upset Grandma.” Tamara understood that Old Mrs. Moore had not intentionally forgotten about her and held no grudges against her. No one knew when Old Mrs. Moore would stop losing her memories. She might even end up losing all of them. No one knew for sure.They couldn’t add to Old Mrs. Moore’s frustrations.Tamara looked over at Sebastian. “I’m going to move out today with the kids.”Old Mrs. Moore’s present recollections did not include any of their existences at this time.Old Mrs. Moore might start overthinking if they continued living in the Moore manor.Sebastian nod
Sebastian drove. He eyed Tamara, who was in the passenger seat, and asked in a low voice, “Do you want to stay with me?”Hearing that, Tamara glanced over at him in surprise. “You…”Sebastian smiled. “What? Were you already set on moving in with me?”Tamara looked into his dark eyes and suddenly blushed. Then, she said, “Where else would I go? You weren’t planning on leaving our kids and me on the streets, were you?”Sebastian chuckled lowly. “Of course not.”After getting teased by Sebastian, Tamara felt a lot better.Upon realizing the benefits of changing her point of view, Tamara decided to view the situation in a different way. For Old Mrs. Moore, forgetting would provide a worry-free existence, and even if she did encounter any troubles, she would swiftly forget them. All in all, this was a positive outcome.After regaining her composure, Tamara felt herself calm down a lot.The car was parked outside a grand villa half an hour later.Tamara had been inside the villa bef
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
