“Uh…Mr. Moore…are you planning to stay the night?” probed Natalie tentatively.Jason quirked a brow. “Do you expect me to navigate the winding mountain road at night?”Natalie immediately shook her head. “Don’t. It’s too dangerous.”The mountain roads here were steep and dangerous. He could drive off a cliff at any given moment!Jason smiled and said, “Hence why I will be staying the night here.”Natalie fell silent.She bit her lips again, thinking, “So he’s going to stay the night, but there’s only one bed. Where is he going to sleep?”“Uh…you can have the bed. I’ll share my mom’s bed tonight,” mumbled Natalie.Jason took off his coat. “Very well.”Natalie left the room. Upon arriving at her parents’ room, she was immediately turned away.She tried again and went to her aunt’s room but couldn’t even open the door.Natalie stood in the empty living room and stared at the wooden couch.She sighed.After accepting her fate, she returned to her room and saw Jason had settled
Natalie widened her eyes in shock. All her thoughts vanished without a trace. She sat up to observe Jason’s pale face. “What’s wrong, Mr. Moore?”Jason placed a hand over his abdomen and furrowed his brows in pain. “I think I have gastric.”Natalie immediately sprung out of bed to find some medicine for him. Jason seemed to be in a serious condition. His forehead was coated with sweat.All in all, he looked terrible!Natalie immediately called for an ambulance. She didn’t want to waste a second in fear of something terrible happening to Jason.Her commotion woke up the entire household. After giving a brief explanation, Natalie got in the ambulance with Jason.…In Clacton, at a Moore Corporation hospital.Jason was sent to the emergency room while Natalie paced around outside nervously.After some time, the doctor came out of the room. He took off his mask and said, “He has gastric perforation. We managed to cure it before it got worse. What did he eat before this?”Natalie
After a while, Tamara released Jason’s wrist. “You have to remember to take three meals a day. Your stomach is not in the best condition right now.”Jason nodded and promised, “I will.”Tamara smiled at Natalie. “Thank you for taking care of him.”Natalie waved her hand nervously. “It’s my job.”Tamara stood up. “I have to go. I’ll come by later.”Jason nodded.He turned to Natalie. “Please see Tammy off.”Natalie was surprised by this, but her body reacted before she even realized it. Tamara was already heading for the door by then.Natalie found herself walking up to Tamara. She composed her trembling heart.Outside the ward, Natalie stopped Tamara unconsciously. “Miss Moore.”Tamara quirked an eyebrow at her. “What’s up?”Natalie pursed her lips. At the thought of her feelings, she hurried to ask, “Do you know what Mr. Moore is up to these days?”Tamara tilted her head as she observed Natalie’s nervousness. A thought appeared in her mind, and Tamara smirked, “Please take
Tamara stopped in her tracks and stared at the expensive car. She cast a glance to the side. A figure was lurking behind a tree not far away from where she was standing. She sneered slightly, “No thanks. I can drive myself.” With that, she headed toward the parking lot.However, the bodyguard stopped her. “Miss, your car has just been sent for maintenance.”Tamara stared blankly at the car’s window as if she could see the man inside. She felt a little helpless. Nevertheless, she stood her ground and declared, “I’ll take a taxi then.”In any case, she wouldn’t get in his car.The bodyguard grimaced. “Miss, Mr. Lynch has been waiting for you for over an hour.”“He likes to wait around. What does it have to do with me?” Tamara gave the bodyguard a cold look and walked toward the roadside.The bodyguard’s jaw fell open.He looked helplessly at the car. The car door opened, and a tall figure walked out.Crowds of people flowed in and out of the hospital as Sebastian approached T
Roxy was still too green. Tamara had been observing her quietly. She wanted to see what Roxy was planning to do.However, after two days of observing Roxy, Tamara could guess what the girl had in mind. It seemed that Roxy wanted to ruin the couple’s relationship. Roxy was indifferent toward Sebastian, but her hatred for Tamara was as clear as day. Thinking back to the resentful look Roxy had given her when Rico was declared dead, Tamara knew the girl wanted revenge for her brother.When Tamara came to this conclusion, she felt dejected. She owed Rico her life. That was why she planned to take Roxy under her wings. However, she wanted to teach Roxy a lesson.“Let’s end this within the next two days. It’s getting boring,” muttered Tamara softly.There were many ways to toy with Roxy. But Tamara decided to let the girl off this time.The girl just needed to learn her lesson.“Okay, I’m right behind you. Ask the driver to stop the car,” said Sebastian in his low voice.Tamar
Sebastian let out a low chuckle and bent down slightly. He trapped Tamara against the car seat. “Didn’t you want to play chase? Let me satisfy you.”Tamara blinked up at him expectantly. “How are you planning to satisfy me?”“You shouldn’t have run from me!” Sebastian leaned down and caught Tamara’s lips.He was demanding and forceful. Tamara felt like she was being devoured by a beast.Tamara’s face turned bright red. She wrapped her arms around Sebastian’s neck and returned the favor.“Hey. This isn’t the right reaction.” Sebastian suddenly stopped in his action. He groaned against her lips in annoyance.Sebastian’s actions made Tamara feel like she had been slapped in the face and caused her to suppress all of her emotions.“Sebastian Lynch! Do you really think I can continue with the act right now?” Tamara’s eyes were filled with passion.Sebastian smirked and pecked her lips. “No. You were the one who started it, so you have to see it to the end.”Tamara felt stupid.She
Joanthan narrowed his eyes at Sebastian. “What happened?”Cheryl furrowed her brow as she looked at Roxy. The girl was shaking uncontrollably, clearly terrified for her life. However, they couldn’t gauge her true emotions as she kept her gaze lowered.Cheryl snorted before turning to Jonathan. “I’m also curious about what happened.”Jonathan blinked at his wife.Why was she staring at him like that?What did he have anything to do with this?Jonathan was racking his brain for an explanation.Joseph furrowed his brows at Roxy. He suddenly turned his attention to Tamara. “Tammy, you were the one who brought her home, right?”“That’s right,” stated Tamara coldly.Joseph glanced at Roxy. “What happened? Hurry up and come clean.”Roxy trembled slightly. She looked at Sebastian unconsciously before she quickly retracted her gaze. She bit her lips and said nothing.She wasn’t going to say anything.Roxy wanted to create an illusion that something had happened between her and Sebas
Tamara stared at Roxy in silence. “I’m sorry about your brother, and I have done all I could to compensate for him. I will even fulfill your every desire. Is that not enough? Are you expecting me to give up my life to compensate for your brother’s?”Roxy glared at her with resentment. “Yes, that’s exactly what I want from you. My brother wouldn’t have died if it weren’t for you.”“How pathetic.” Tamara looked at her coldly. “If your brother knew what kind of person you are, he would be so heartbroken.”“Bullshit!” Roxy grew furious. “My brother wouldn’t be heartbroken. He would side with me!”Tamara stared at her calmly. She could make out the stubbornness and paranoia in Roxy’s eyes. She kept silent and gave the nearby maid a look before sitting next to Sebastian.The maid understood immediately and grabbed Roxy, dragging her out of the manor. There was no point in talking to someone like Roxy. It was better to just get rid of her.“So, you’ve known all along what she planned
