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

“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

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

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

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
