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
Tamara brought her newly developed fragrance to Londsville. She was nervous throughout the entire journey. When she arrived at the Simmons residence, she saw Old Mrs. Moore patiently pruning some flowers. Tamara hurriedly approached. “Grandma, does this fragrance smell right?”Tamara took out the fragrance. The liquid in the bottle was light pink and gave off a dreamy vibe. Old Mrs. Moore took a glance at it. “You did it right.”Tamara was surprised. “Grandma, you only took a glance, and you already knew it’s correct?”Old Mrs. Moore smiled and looked at Tamara. “Are you underestimating your grandma? Although you have talent, you’re not as experienced as me. You still have many things to learn.”Tamara immediately shook her head and said, “That’s not what I meant.” She was just surprised by her grandma’s capabilities.Tamara looked at the light pink liquid in the bottle, and a determined look flashed in her eyes. “Well then, Grandma, I’ll be on my way now.” Tamara was going
Tamara withdrew her gaze and walked upstairs. She went to the study room first, but no one was inside. She then headed for the bedroom. Still, it was empty. She wondered, “What’s going on?” Tamara searched through the rooms in confusion. There was no sign of Sebastian. This made her wonder if he had truly returned home.Tamara came down from the third floor and suddenly remembered they had a basement, so she went straight down there. The basement had a private cinema, a gym, and a chess room. Upon her arrival, she heard the sound of the machines in the gym.She could even hear some loud noises coming from within.Tamara pushed open the door and walked in, only to see Sebastian wearing boxing gloves. He was violently abusing the sandbag in the boxing ring. “Sebastian.” Tamara crossed her arms and called out to him helplessly. “Why did you shut off your phone?”As soon as he heard her voice, Sebastian stopped. He had obviously been exercising for a while. His short hair was
Sebastian carried Tamara and stood up. He swiftly brought her out of the boxing ring without another word.Tamara stared up at him and observed the distant look on his face. She cupped his cheeks and forced him to look at her.Sebastian stopped in his tracks. There was a hint of coldness in his eyes as his gaze landed on Tamara.Tamara pouted and asked, “What’s wrong? I’m not letting you go until you spit it out!”Sebastian studied Tamara’s stubborn face and suddenly felt defeated. He thought to himself, “She is a woman, for goodness sake! Why is she so insensitive?”Perhaps he was the one who had been too sensitive. Sebastian sighed and swooped in for a kiss. He kissed her until she was gasping for air. “Are you really that clueless?”“I don’t know what’s wrong.” Tamara’s eyes were glossed over. She snuggled up to him. “Come on. Tell me.”Her gentle voice melted Sebastian’s cold heart.Sebastian carried her out of the basement and into the living room.At the time, a few ma
“You’re done?” Tamara grinned and stalked closer to Sebastian.Sebastian narrowed his eyes at her. “Didn’t I tell you to stay still?”Tamara blinked. “I was just answering a call, and I’ve been standing there for 10 minutes. My legs had become jelly by now.”Sebastian observed the puppy eyes Tamara gave him and felt himself softening, but he still put on a cold facade. Then, he went back inside the manor.Tamara quickly followed him inside. “Come on now. Don’t be upset. You didn’t give me a clear answer. You…"Tamara kept on nagging behind him, but she suddenly froze in her spot. She was surprised to see the changes inside the manor.The lights were dimmed, and rose petals rained down slowly from above. It covered the ground and formed a heart shape around the spot she was standing at.If she hadn’t moved, she would have been in the middle of the heart right now.Tamara widened her eyes at Sebastian in disbelief. “This was your plan all along?”Sebastian hummed. He still looke
Tamara swallowed hard.Ten minutes later, Tamara opened the door to the closet and slowly walked out. The bed was right opposite the closet.On the other side of the bed was a couch, which was where Sebastian was currently sitting. He had his legs crossed, and the top few buttons were undone. A ghost of a smile adorned his handsome face as his dark eyes landed on Tamara.“Come here,” ordered Sebastian huskily.Tamara stared into his eyes. She could see the fire burning within and was scared she might get burned if she got too close.Tamara bit her lips and slowly approached him.She moved cautiously forward, doing her best to cover herself, but she still felt like she was walking around naked.This only added to her sexiness.Sebastian swallowed hard. Still, he forced himself to remain on the couch patiently.By the time Tamara reached Sebastian, her cheeks were already burning up. “There…I put it on. Is this enough?”Of course, she knew what he wanted. Tamara still hoped he
As soon as Tamara regained consciousness the next morning, she felt sore all over. She couldn’t even lift her legs.She huffed. Sebastian chuckled from the side. “You’re awake. What do you want to eat?”Tamara shifted her gaze to the side. She gave him a hard look and forced herself to get out of bed, but as soon as she stood up, she almost toppled over.Sebastian caught her immediately and carried her to the bathroom.Tamara pouted childishly but held her tongue.Her lips were already raw from last night. With the way she was pouting, she could feel a sense of numbness to it.It was all because of Sebastian.He should have gone easy on her.Sebastian noticed her anger and cooed gently at her, “Sorry, Tammy.”Tamara huffed in amusement. “That wasn’t what you said yesterday.”Sebastian held her hand. “I feel bad seeing how tired you are.”Tamara rolled her eyes at him.“He felt bad? If he truly felt bad, he wouldn’t have…” Tamara shook the thought away. She shoved him and ex
