Sebastian cocked an eyebrow at this.“That’s where you live,” said Benjamin.Jerome tilted his head in confusion. “Was there such a good gamer in the Lynch family?”Sebastian was deep in thought.A good gamer…No. There was no one like that in the Lynch family.However, that was before Tamara came into the picture.Could it be?Was being a tea barista not her only secret identity?Sebastian gathered his thoughts and pulled out his phone. He looked for Tamara’s contact.There it was, Tamara Simmons.It was her own name.Completely different from the game ID.So, this must be a coincidence.Benjamin whistled in amusement. “I can’t track them anymore. They must be a hacker too.”His voice was filled with admiration, and he grew curious about the person. “I must find out who this person is.”Jerome’s mood had dampened. “How am I supposed to find her if I don’t have any information on her?”Benjamin patted Jerome on the back. “Calm down. You can always send her a message.”
Then…The screen lagged before going completely dark. What was happening?Sebastian frowned. He clicked on the site only to find he had been removed from the live broadcast.His face fell at this. Just then, a notification popped up on the screen: “The system is under maintenance for the next half an hour. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.”Sebastian clenched his jaw.Damn it! Sebastian picked up his phone and called home angrily.It was Ms. Thompson who answered again.“Has Tamara drank the tea?” Sebastian asked in a low voice.Ms. Thompson replied, “She said she would drink it later.”“What was she doing when you went in?” Sebastian looked out the window.Ms. Thompson blinked before replying, “She was resting in bed. What’s wrong, Young Mr. Lynch?”“Nothing.” Sebastian hung up the call and narrowed his eyes.Was she resting in bed?But the pair of hands looked oddly familiar.Was his mind playing tricks on him?“What the hell? Why did the system decide to
How could he do this?Tamara’s face flushed bright red, and her bright eyes glistened. She did not dare to meet Sebastian’s gaze.Sebastian sneered lowly, then grabbed her arm and started observing it.Tamara tried her best to pull her arm back, but the man was too strong. She could do nothing to resist him.“What the hell does he want?” Tamara thought.She looked up at Sebastian with that question in her eyes. However, the man’s gaze was fixed on her hand.He loosened his grip on Tamara not a moment later.Doubt lingered in Sebastian’s eyes as he regarded her. “Could it not have been her?” he wondered.Tamara’s hands were small and delicate. Her fingers were slender and nice to look at.He recalled that while the hands shown in the live broadcast were fair and slender, they were not as small as Tamara’s.Sebastian figured there might be an issue with the video angle.He retracted his burning gaze from Tamara’s hand to look up at the woman.At this moment, Tamara’s cheeks w
Tamara snapped back to her senses. She got her phone out to type a response in order to answer Ms. Thompson’s query, but when she lifted her head, she noticed that Sebastian was making his way back.“If you dare tell anyone about what just happened, I’ll make sure you regret it!”Sebastian warned as he said through gritted teeth. He glared at her one last time before turning his heel to leave.Tamara was rendered speechless.Ms. Thompson witnessed everything from the side. The initial shock on her face gave way to a small smile.“Gosh, it seems like you’ve been getting on with Young Mr. Lynch rather well recently,” Ms. Thompson said with a smile. She recalled Sebastian's extremely short time with Tamara when she first moved in.However, after living under the same roof for some time, the housekeeper could see that Sebastian had changed his view of Tamara.It was good news.The corners of Tamara’s lips twitched, but she gave Ms. Thompson a proper smile.It was absurd that the h
” Weren’t you thinking about switching to another streaming platform? I’ve got my eye on this one. It’s developed by a new company, so it needs to get its name out. That’s why they set up a gaming competition. First place gets five million dollars!” Margot explained enthusiastically as she showed Tamara five of her fingers for emphasis.Tamara was stunned for a moment. Then, she signed: “Five million dollars? That company must be bathing in fortune if that’s the case.”“That’s what I thought! You have really awesome gaming skills, don’t you? It’ll be a piece of cake for you to bag first place! Come on, why don’t you try competing? I even have all your details filled out on the application form already,” Margot said with a grin.Tamara shot her a weak smile. “Since you’ve filled everything out, I shouldn’t waste all your efforts by refusing, should I?”“That’s the spirit! I’ll get the form submitted right away! You’ll have to prepare soon,” Margot replied excitedly, then hung up the
Tamara was rendered speechless.The man was honestly pushing it.However, when she saw how brightly Jerome was smiling at her, she quickly realized that the man would not take the lunchbox from her no matter what.Tamara let out a soft sigh before making her way to the elevators.Once she reached the top floor, the monochrome CEO's office came into view. The cool color tones exuded an air of abstinence.Tamara walked up to Sebastian and placed the lunchbox on his desk. Then, she typed: “Here’s your food. I’m leaving.”After Sebastian finished reading the text, Tamara spun on her heel to leave.“Hold on,” Sebastian said suddenly, his voice low and magnetizing.Tamara turned to look at him in puzzlement.“Did I give you permission to leave?”Tamara was a little taken aback. She raised an eyebrow at Sebastian, then quickly typed on her phone: “I have legs, don’t I? If I wish to leave, what could possibly stop me? You really think you’re all that, don’t you? Why are you so contro
Sebastian was completely nude. Having slept next to Tamara, he was startled awake when she pushed his arm away.Tamara hurriedly typed on her phone: “How did I get on the bed?”“Shouldn’t you be?” Sebastian rebutted with a dark expression on his face.Tamara was rendered speechless.She tried to get off the bed quickly. Once she managed to get her bearings, she realized that Sebastian must’ve carried her onto the bed.She scratched at her head in frustration. How could this have happened?Tamara had slept on the sofa on purpose. Couldn’t this man get a hint?Doing her best to rein in her temper, Tamara typed: “Sebastian Lynch, all I wanted was to sleep in peace.”After sweeping his gaze over the text, Sebastian chuckled. “So you’re saying that my presence disrupts your peace?”Tamara was about to nod, but when she noticed how coldly the man was glaring at her, she found that her fingers had paused from typing.Sebastian was pissed. No woman had ever regarded him as nothing bu
Tamara avoided Coral seamlessly, gazing coldly at the woman.Prior to this, Coral and Quentin had done everything they could to get the five million dollars from her. She could still remember every horrible thing they did and all the cruel words they said to her.Tamara had been kind enough to show up at the Simmons’ residence.Coral let out an embarrassed smile. “Tammy, I’m delighted that you could make it! I’d like to sincerely apologize for everything that has happened beforehand. We were honestly at our wit’s end, and your brother has paid the price for his actions, hasn’t he? Can’t you just forgive him?”Tamara’s expression was cold. The emotions in her clear eyes that glimmered like crystals were indiscernible. “I’m sure that won’t be the last time. I’m willing to bet that you’ll both be demanding me to get you guys another five million soon. Are you guys going to threaten me again?”Coral shook her head hastily. “No, of course not! Your brother has already quit gambling.”
