Tamara was rendered speechless.“Are you interested in my mommy?”At this moment, Melanie walked over and looked up at Randy with big, adorable eyes. Randy immediately leaned down, nodded, and said, “Yes, I really like her. I want to be friends with your mommy. Can you tell me what her name is? I’ll reward you with sweets.”Melanie said in a soft and cute voice, “But Mommy already has Daddy.”“What?”Randy’s smile instantly fell.When he found out Tamara had a child, he was already disappointed. He later considered the possibility that she was divorced and raising the child by herself as a single mother. Even if she were, he decided that he wouldn’t mind. After all, she was so beautiful, and Randy would treat her right.After mustering up his courage, he approached Tamara with the intention of striking up a conversation. He did not expect the little girl’s words to hit him like lightning. The girl said that she had a daddy.That meant that the beautiful woman had a husban
Thomas was very irritable as he approached Caleb. “We agreed to keep this a secret. How could you just spill the beans like that?” Caleb blinked and said, “But I don’t want to hide things from Mommy. I’m worried that she’ll get upset.” Thomas was rendered speechless.“Who is this stinky old man you’re talking about?” Tamara asked.Thomas blinked, then stuttered, “He’s... He’s Melly’s grandfather, Elijah.”Tamara nodded knowingly, then took the seat in front of the two little boys. “You’re planning to teach him a lesson? Do you think you can beat him?” Thomas immediately said, “He’s an old man! I’m sure that I can beat him in a fight!” Tamara said, “But you’re still just a kid.” Thomas’s face tensed up. “Mommy, you don’t want me to go?”“Of course I do. I’m glad you want to help me vent my anger,” Tamara immediately said, patting Thomas’ head. “But I need to ask you something. Do you think you can protect yourself and your little brother at the same time? After beating Eli
Sebastian looked at her with a skeptical gaze, and his thin lips curved into a faint smile. “I really was just checking my email. If you don’t believe me, you can take a look.”He picked up his tablet and unlocked it.Tamara looked at the tablet and then back at him. Suddenly, she burst out laughing. “I was just messing with you.”She put the tablet back down, closed her eyes, and let him blow dry her hair.The warm air caressed her hair, and his slender fingers threaded through her locks. Tamara felt so comfortable that she almost fell asleep.After he finished blow-drying her hair, Sebastian picked her up and tucked her into bed. Then, he stared at her sleeping figure. He leaned over and kissed her forehead before getting up and leaving the room.…Three days later.Jonathan, Cheryl, and Tamara came to the Custry manor together.The butler led them to the living room.Hugo and Sandy were sitting on the sofa. When they saw the three, Hugo stood up immediately. “In-laws, plea
“What? What did you say?”Hugo looked at Cheryl’s serious face, and his expression turned solemn as well. Jonathan glared at Hugo with displeasure but decided to wait until Cheryl finished speaking before acting out. “Tammy is treated like royalty in our family. We treat her like she’s a precious treasure all the time. I hope that she won’t suffer any maltreatment after she marries Sebastian. If I find out that anyone in the Custry family has given Tammy a hard time, I’ll make sure they regret it.” Cheryl spoke very seriously, and her eyes coldly swept over Sandy. Sandy didn’t say a word, but she felt like she was being targeted. Upon hearing this, Hugo immediately reassured her, “You can rest assured about this. We dote on Tammy very much. There’s no way we’ll do anything bad to her.”Cheryl scoffed. “That better be true.” “Don’t worry. I know you well enough to be wary.” Hugo smiled at Cheryl. At this moment, Jonathan suddenly cleared his throat. Then, he looked at Cher
Looking at Tamara, Sandy hesitated a little before saying, “You probably already had some idea of your mother’s relationship with Elijah. Ten years after your mother married Jacob, Elijah reappeared in Londsville. She could never get him out of her mind, so the two met. One thing led to another, and your mother got pregnant. Before she could tell Elijah about her pregnancy, Jacob had already discovered their affair. He threatened to make her have an abortion if she didn’t keep her pregnancy hidden from Elijah.” Tamara was listening intently. “Jacob actually kept the baby?”In other words, he kept her.“When I first heard about it, I was highly doubtful,” Sandy recounted, “I never expect Jacob to actually keep the baby. Perhaps, he did it out of his love for your mother and couldn’t bear to see her sad. Eventually, your mother went to bid farewell to Elijah, but unbeknownst to her, Jacob’s men tailed her. Jacob took advantage of the situation and captured Elijah, deliberately impl
She would not pick up a call from a stranger at that moment.However, as soon as she ended the call, the person called again.Tamara frowned and answered with annoyance, “Hello, who’s this?”“It’s me, Miss Moore.”A familiar voice came from the other end of the call instead.It was Anthony.Tamara was stunned. She pursed her lips and said nothing.Anthony’s breathing sounded a little heavy. After a while, he said, “Can you help me? I’m at 1999. Something’s happened to Helena.”Tamara became nervous when she heard that. “What happened to Helena?”Anthony said, “Miss Custry was hanging out with her friends at 1999, but she was set up. I’m occupied, and I can’t go over right now.”“I’ll head over there now.”Tamara immediately hung up the call as soon as she said that.A dejected look suddenly appeared on Anthony’s face, but it disappeared as quickly. More than ten men had surrounded him, and his gaze became sharp as he looked at them.After Tamara arrived at 1999 in a rush,
“Thank you, Miss Moore.”Tamara glanced at Anthony indifferently, then said to Helena, “Have a good rest. You’ll recover tomorrow.”“Mm-hmm. I got it. Thank you, Tamara.” Helena nodded.She blinked and looked at Anthony and Tamara. Then, she suddenly said, “Anthony, help me see Tamara off. I’m too weak to walk.”“Mm-hmm,” Anthony hummed with a nod, then followed Tamara out of the room.When Tamara got to the elevator landing, she sent a message to Sebastian, telling him that she would be returning soon.At that moment, the elevator door opened.Tamara entered, but when she turned around, she saw Anthony standing there, not moving.Tamara blinked and said, “Take good care of Helena.”Right at that moment, Anthony suddenly dropped to his knees in front of her.Tamara was stunned, but she said nothing.“Miss Moore, I know I was wrong.” With his eyes downcast, Anthony apologized to her sincerely.Tamara still said nothing.As the moments stretched on, Anthony’s anticipation tu
Tamara felt tired as she nestled in Sebastian’s arms. She could hear his strong heartbeat. Her mind, which was in a mess, gradually became at peace.Sebastian was right.She would not forgive Anthony.Anthony brought the pain onto himself. If he did not betray her, how could he be in pain?Tamara calmed down, so she did not continue thinking about this anymore. Previously, Anthony was an integral part of Tamara’s life that she could never imagine losing. However, since he had caused her pain, she had resolved to endure the anguish and cut him out of her life. Even if the process were excruciatingly painful, she would not care.…As usual, she went to visit Margot at the hospital.Every day, Margot would briefly wake up and stare expressionlessly at the ceiling before slowly closing her eyes again.When Tamara arrived, she happened to be looking blankly at the ceiling with her eyes widened.Tamara felt a little helpless. “I really don’t know what’s happened to you. It’s very
