When Ms Thompson heard the maid, she asked with concern, “Oh gosh, have you seen a doctor yet?”The maid nodded. “I have. It’s nothing too bad, but seeing that Young Mrs. Lynch is pregnant, I’m worried that I might pass on whatever disease I have to her. I think it’d be best if I went home.”Ms Thompson nodded. “I suppose that’s for the best. But you don’t have to quit completely. How about you take temporary leave for now? You can get back to work any time you like in the future once you’re healthy.”The maid replied, tone grateful, “That’s very kind of you, Ms. Thompson. But my younger brother is still ill at home. I have to take care of him, so I don’t think I’ll be coming back any time soon.” Ms Thompson was quick to catch the drift.“Alright, then. I’ll get the salary you’re owed settled as soon as possible. If you do decide to come back for work, just let me know.” Ms Thompson thought that maid was really good at her job, so she tried her best to make her stay.Once the ma

The leaf did not taste unusual. Some sweetness accompanied a faint bitterness.“Young Mrs. Lynch, why are you eating leaves? They haven’t been cleaned yet!” When Ms Thompson saw what Tamara was doing, she hurriedly snatched the carrot away.Tamara’s brows furrowed as she regarded the rest of the vegetables in the fridge. None of them seemed to emit any strange smells.This meant that there wasn’t anything wrong with the food.If that was the case, then where did the problem lie?“Tamara Simmons, come back here! Don’t you dare try to change the topic. I need you to explain yourself! How’s the baby now? Do you think that you can do away with a child of the Lynch family’s blood as you please? Let me tell you, things are not that simple! If you don’t explain yourself properly, I’ll make sure the Simmons family pays for this!”Yareli despised Tamara from the start.Since the Simmons family had been adamant that Tamara married Sebastian, the Lynch family had no choice but to accept th

Sebastian’s expression darkened. His voice was low and magnetizing as he asked, “You’d let me do anything?”Tamara nodded, looking incredibly serious. Her beautiful eyes shone with determination.Yareli had no idea what words the couple were exchanging with each other. However, she could tell that Sebastian and Tamara had struck some sort of deal with each other.“How can this happen?” she thought to herself.“Seb, what are you guys doing? You’re not planning to let this wicked woman off easy, are you?” Yareli asked, stone-faced as she looked at her son.Sebastian turned his head towards her and said, “Mom, I’ll handle this my way. You must be tired. You should head home to rest.”“Hold on, what do you mean by that?” Yareli was truly startled. “You’re really going to let this evil wench off scot-free? Seb, listen to me, that woman has to be kicked out of the family today or –”“Ms. Thompson, please show my mother out.”Sebastian interrupted Yareli, then tugged Tamara upstairs b

Sebastian’s handsome features seemed frosted over with ice. He looked down at his expensive wristwatch and said curtly, “Let’s hold off for a short while.”Jerome was confused. He did not know what Sebastian was waiting for.Soon enough, he found the answer to his query.Benjamin called Sebastian to invite him to a meal in 1999.Sebastian got his car key from Jerome, then reminded the latter, “Keep a close eye on the situation over there.”Jerome nodded. “Understood, Young Mr. Lynch.”Sebastian drove himself to 1999. Just as he passed the key to the valet, he spotted a familiar figure heading her way into 1999’s lobby.He quirked an eyebrow and thought, “What a coincidence.”Tamara managed to get someone to track Rowena down. When she was notified that the woman was having a little get-together in 1999, she made her way to the bar straight away.1999 felt like home to Tamara.As such, she had no trouble navigating her way to the private lounge Rowena was said to be in.Insid

Tamara followed Sebastian into his car. After putting on her seatbelt, she turned to cast her beautiful eyes on the man next to her, her gaze unblinking.Sebastian started driving without another word. With a cold expression, he asked, “What are you staring at?”No matter how long Tamara looked at him, she couldn’t tell what had gone wrong.Sebastian’s dark eyes swept over Tamara for a short moment. When he saw that she was sitting obediently in her seat with a hint of confusion on her face, faint joy flashed in his eyes.He brought Tamara to another hospital.After the checkup, the doctor showed them the medical report and said, “You’re showing some signs of a potential miscarriage. Please mind what you eat. Here are some meds for you to take. They’ll help regulate your body. If you take good care of yourself, everything will be fine.”Tamara nodded with a smile.Coldness flashed in Sebastian’s eyes as he stood behind Tamara.It seemed that the poison Tamara had ingested throu
