Chapter 21 How Did This Happen?

Watching the scene play out in a car from a distance was Rowena, who had worn a hat to disguise herself. A pleased yet almost psychotic emotion flickered in her eyes while she mused, “Burn in hell, Tamara Simmons!”“Young Mr. Lynch, Ms. Simmons is in danger!” Jerome received news about Tamara from his subordinates and hurriedly informed Sebastian.At that moment, Sebastian was sorting through documents in his office. His features darkened to coal once he heard those words. “What happened?”Jerome promptly showed the video his subordinates recorded to Sebastian. The latter lowered his gaze onto the screen and saw Tamara standing before several burly men. Her tiny frame seemed to shrink by the minute. On top of that, it was evident from first sight that the men were up to no good.“Get the car!” Sebastian boomed, enraged at how Tamara always got into trouble. Worrying and vexing thoughts swirled in his mind like a hurricane as he thought, “Although it’s unclear what’s going on in t

Chapter 22 She’s a Mute?

When they arrived at the hospital, Sebastian got out of the car, walked to the passenger’s seat, opened the door, and carried Tamara out bridal style. The gesture shocked Tamara, whose instinct was to wriggle out of his grasp.“Stop moving!” Sebastian’s arrogant and domineering growl sounded as he brought her into the hospital.Fearing she would fall, Tamara wrapped her arms around Sebastian’s neck. She then blinked while taking in every inch of his handsome face, wondering, “W—Why is he doing this?”Before she could contemplate his actions, Sebastian arranged for her to go through a series of check-ups. Only after receiving the examination results and confirming the safety of Tamara’s baby did his thin-lipped frown ease up.He stood in the hospital lobby, his eyes boring holes into Tamara as he spoke frostily, “I don’t want anything like today’s events to happen again, Tamara Simmons. Do you understand?”Tamara pursed her lips and nodded. Even she had to admit the events today

Chapter 23 Threatening Tamara

Tamara’s smile stiffened then and there.“Yeah.” Sebastian nodded. “She’s mute, but she’s pregnant with my child.”One could tell Old Mr. Lynch was displeased by the entire ordeal. After that, he only spoke with Sebastian and completely ignored Tamara, not sparing her even a single glance.Tamara maintained the same humble posture while standing aside. Sometime later, Sebastian’s gaze swept past his wife. A complex emotion swirled in his dark orbs as he said, “Grandpa, you’ve just recovered, so you should get some rest.”Old Mr. Lynch naturally understood the intention behind his grandson’s words. He shot a quick look at Tamara before nodding. “Alright. You can head home now and visit me tomorrow.”“Okay,” replied a nodding Sebastian, who headed toward the door. Tamara awkwardly blinked twice, flashed a polite smile at Old Mr. Lynch, then turned to leave with her husband. Alas, before she could, the ward’s door flung open to reveal Yareli and Rowena.“What are you doing here,

Chapter 24 She’s Arrogant

“Y—You!” Yareli stuttered. Never did she picture Tamara as someone capable of arrogance. Now that it happened, she wondered if the latter intended to stay in the Lynch family forever.With her nose scrunched into a sneer, Yareli hissed. “With your social status, all you’re worthy of is birthing the Lynch family’s grandchild. As for anything else to do with our family, you can forget about it, Tamara!” At that point, the elevator door had opened, and Yareli let out a scoff before storming out.Tamara, on the other hand, was devoid of emotion. It seemed like she was not the slightest bit offended by the former’s ridicule or threat. Still, one should know that Tamara had never cared about joining the Lynch family, so it was only natural that she reacted indifferently. Contrary to Yareli’s accusations, Tamara was more eager than anyone else to be free of this family that tied her up like chains.It took about ten minutes of waiting in the hospital’s lobby before Sebastian came downst

Chapter 25 How Does That Concern You?

Tamara snapped back to her senses and saw Sebastian’s eyes fixating on her. Danger seemed to lurk deep within his pitch-black gaze. Right away, she set her glass on the coffee table and picked up some pen and paper to write: “It’s late. Why aren’t you asleep yet? Can’t sleep?”After reading the message, Sebastian narrowed his eyes. “How does that concern you?” “I was only worried. Does he have to be so mean?” Tamara complained in her heart. A frown marred her face as she crumpled the paper, dumped it in the bin, and marched upstairs with her glass of water.Sebastian watched her withdrawing figure leave before whipping around and opening a window. Soon, a breeze gushed into the living space, cooling down Sebastian’s fiery lust.…Tamara tossed and turned in her bed. Flashbacks of Sebastian’s reddened eyes plagued her mind. She knew it was a result of long-term insomnia. At the same time, she felt his foul temper was also to blame. The thought of Sebastian’s nasty behavior irri

Chapter 26 How Did You Get Them?

An overwhelming fragrance wafted over, causing Sebastian to frown. “What have you done to me?”With every word he said, he inhaled more of the scent and felt grogginess taking over. Shock flickered in his dark orbs that gawked at Tamara.Meanwhile, Tamara took back the scented tea. Her lips pursed into a taut line, and she looked slightly displeased that he had not fallen asleep.Sebastian shook his head, trying to regain his alertness, but the exhaustion he felt was too intense. He released Tamara’s wrist while yawning several times in a row. “W—What’s going on…?” he faltered. Simultaneously, many questions ate at his mind, and he wondered, “What was that in Tamara’s hand? Why do I feel so sleepy after inhaling it?”Seeing him struggle to stay awake, Tamara snaked an arm around his waist while guiding him onto the couch. After setting him there, she grabbed the pen and paper off the coffee table to write: “You should get some rest.”Sebastian used his last bit of willpower to r

Chapter 27 Her Intentions

Sebastian’s countenance hardened so much that it made Tamara’s blood rush with anxiety. She hurriedly got to typing: “The scented tea was a gift from my friend… Is there a problem with it?”“Friend…?” Sebastian wondered. A frown marred his face as his pitch-black eyes stared Tamara down. After making sure there weren’t any abnormal reactions from her, he promptly left her room.Only then did she let out the faintest sigh of relief.“Gosh, he looked so serious earlier… It was scary,” Tamara mused. Her attention instinctively landed on the suitcase in her room as she declared in her heart, “I can’t reveal that part of my identity. Not yet.”She then got ready for the day, had her breakfast, and lounged on the couch to watch some television.“Good day, Mrs. Lynch and Miss Xanthos.” Ms. Thompson’s voice echoed from the main door just then.Tamara glanced over, only to see her mother-in-law, Yareli, leading Rowena into the living room. Out of respect, Tamara stood to greet the two but

Chapter 28 The Scent of Other Women

Yareli was determined to see the look of humiliation plaguing Tamara’s face. However, the outcome was destined to disappoint her.Tamara flashed a faint smirk as she watched Yareli and Rowena put on their act. Seeing the two initially repulsed Tamara as she knew nothing good would come from their combined presence, but now, she changed her mind. There was no harm in spectating a show between two vipers.Not getting the desired reaction from Tamara, Yareli frowned bitterly.Even Rowena sensed things were going awry. Hatred and hostility lurked deep within her eyes as she glanced at Tamara. Yet, that vanished in the next second when she spoke with a gentler tone, “Mrs. Lynch, this must be Young Mr. Lynch’s new home, huh? It’s my first time here.”At once, Yareli’s attention snapped over to Tamara. “Go, Tamara. Show Rowena around the place. She’s a guest, so I expect you to treat her with the utmost welcome.”Tamara raised a brow, but Rowena had already shot onto her feet and taunted

Chapter 29 What Are Your Motives?

Despite getting yelled at by Yareli, Tamara seemed unfazed and merely smirked.“Jeez. I’m only going to be in the Lynch family for a short time, so why do I have to put up with this bullshit?” Tamara thought while ascending the stairs, leaving behind Yareli and Rowena with their jaws agape.Unable to hold back her anger, Rowena shrilled, “How can she treat you this way? Don’t be upset, Mrs. Lynch. Otherwise, you might fall ill, and your son will surely worry when he finds out.”Yareli’s face darkened due to her gushing anger. A sinister aura formed in her eyes after listening to Rowena, and she thought, “That Tamara is a horrid bitch! She’s taking advantage of her baby, who bears the Lynch family’s blood, to behave arrogantly! Just wait, Tamara! Once the baby’s born, I’ll make you pay dearly!” “Let’s get out of here!” Yareli commanded before storming out the door with Rowena in tow.After getting into their car, Rowena eyed the older woman cautiously and decided to test the water

Chapter 30 Strangers

Benjamin’s lips curved. “Don’t be so nervous, Margot. I’m just curious about this particular mixologist. She only mixes three alcoholic beverages in one day, but each has a unique flavor. How does she do it?” That elicited a proud smile from Margot, who replied, “I’m not telling you. It’s a trade secret!”“Well, why won’t you let me meet her in person?” asked Benjamin, who toyed with the phone in his hands.“Do you think you can just meet anyone as you please?” Margot scoffed, assuming Benjamin’s interest in Tamara was because he wanted to steal the latter. Hence, she did not bother to soften the blow of her words. “Mr. Inkling, I suggest you give up on trying to see her. My mixologist is loyal to 1999. She won’t go anywhere else.” Benjamin’s smile deepened as he clicked on his WhatsApp to text someone. He wrote: “That mixologist’s here again. Aren’t you coming over to see her?”At the same time, Sebastian’s phone vibrated in the office on the top floor of ST Corporation. He pic
