"How did he get in here? Hurry up and get him out!" When Yareli saw Quentin, her face darkened and she hurriedly called for security.Old Mr. Lynch was confused. "What girlfriend?"Quentin held onto the hospital bed as if his life depended on it. "Old Mr. Lynch, Young Mr. Lynch had a one-night stand with my sister and she’s now pregnant. So, Sebastian Jr. will be running around soon.""Get him out! Get him out now!" Yareli yelled. The security guards immediately pulled Quentin away.Old Mr. Lynch turned toward Sebastian. "Is this real? Will you be having a child?"Old Mr. Lynch looked expectantly at Sebastian.Yareli tried to explain, "It’s not like that. He’s lying…""It’s true," said Sebastian. Yareli stared at him in disbelief. "Are you out of your mind? Do you know what you just said?"Sebastian paid no mind to her and instead said to the nurse, "Bring him to the ward."The nurse hurriedly brought the patient away. Only then did Sebastian focus on Yareli. "Mom, you must
Tamara hurriedly got into the car. She carefully picked the side farthest from Sebastian.The atmosphere within the car was tense.Tamara twiddled her fingers and hung her head low. Even so, it could not obscure her beauty.Sebastian could not help but remember the night he had with her.Her skin was smooth but was bruised wherever he laid his hand upon. She was so… weak!The car slowly drove into the residential area of Skarrowlilt Grove. This was the best place to stay in Londsville as there was enough space between each villa to ensure maximum privacy.The car stopped in front of a villa. The driver got down and helped the passengers out. Sebastian headed inside wordlessly with Tamara following close behind."Welcome back, Mr. Lynch." The housekeeper, Ms. Thompson, greeted them.Sebastian walked past her without a word. Ms. Thompson’s gaze fell onto Tamara.She was surprised. This was the first time Sebastian had brought a woman home. Even though he had had a girlfriend bef
Tamara tilted her head in confusion. What was wrong with this man? She had not done anything. Why was he calling her a scheming woman?She sprung up from her seat. The sudden action twisted her ankle, and she flailed her arms around trying to steady herself. She finally found her balance leaning against a warm chest.She could feel the firm muscles beneath her palm along with his heartbeat. Tamara blushed furiously. Just when she was about to let go, a hand caught her wrist.The grip on her was strong, and it felt like her bones were about to break."What? It’s only been a few hours and you're already planning to throw yourself in my arms?" Sebastian's cold voice sounded from above her. Tamara wanted to take her hand back, but Sebastian was too strong for her to fight against.She looked up and came face to face with Sebastian's unforgiving gaze. She hit him with her other hand.A cold aura surrounded Sebastian. "Why are you holding your tongue?"Tamara stared blankly at him. Ms
Ms. Thompson nodded. "Yes. Right this way, please."In the study, Ms. Thompson pushed open the door and said to Tamara, "Miss Simmons, the printer is in here, but you must hurry. Mr. Lynch doesn’t like people entering his study."Tamara nodded and signed her thanks.Ms. Thompson waved her away. "I’m just doing my job, Miss Simmons. In you go."Tamara entered the study and switched on the printer.At the same time, downstairs, Sebastian had returned with his phone in hand. An intimidating aura surrounded him, and he looked more pissed than ever.The Simmons family must have a death wish!How dare they send him a mute? She had even gotten pregnant with his child!Very well!It was the first time Sebastian had fallen for a scheme like this.He scanned the living room but did not catch a glimpse of Tamara. His expression darkened.Suddenly, he heard the sound of the printer working upstairs. He frowned. "What are you doing?" Sebastian walked into his study and yelled. Tamara w
Sebastian cocked an eyebrow and stared at Tamara in surprise.Tamara gave her his phone. "No need to worry, Mr. Lynch. I don’t like having my life planned out for me either. Once the child is born, I’ll leave. Here’s the agreement. Have a look."Sebastian took the document and skimmed through it. He was still in disbelief. "You’ll leave? Really?"He always thought that this woman who did whatever it took to marry him would definitely want something from him. However, this woman…Tamara smiled. Just a simple smile of hers would bring a man to his knees, but when one looked into her eyes, one could see how clear and bright they were. Any impure thoughts they had of her would be cleansed just from peering into her eyes."I don’t wish to be anyone’s pawn, nor do I wish to be in a loveless marriage. I believe you would agree with me on this. That’s why I hope we can get along for the next ten months." Tamara put down her phone and looked calmly at Sebastian.She still had many things
Tamara shook her head and signed, “Let me have a look at them. If they were made around the same time period, I can mix them without having to taste them.”Margot had no choice but to relent. “Alright.”Margot was the owner of 1999, while Tamara was the best mixologist there. The reason why 1999 was such a hot spot was mainly due to Tamara.She was sensitive to alcohol and could taste the finest differences between each bottle. With her skills, she could make a very fine drink by mixing different types of alcohol. The two left the lobby just as a black Rolls-Royce Phantom was rolling in.A tall man came out of the car.He was wearing a tailored silver-gray suit and looked ravishing. He was on a call.“Mr. Lynch, I heard that 1999’s mixologist is back. She has a good tongue. Didn’t you lose your sense of taste? Let her mix a drink for you. Maybe you’ll recover,” mocked Benjamin Inkling.Sebastian huffed. “A good tongue? How would you know? Have you put her service to the test?”
Tamara’s face fell. She hurriedly typed: “I didn’t follow you, Mr. Lynch, and I never lie. Not every woman here is out to get you. Please get off your high horse.”When Sebastian read what she wrote, he was furious. He let out a cruel chuckle. “Do you think I’d trust the words of a scheming bitch like you?”Tamara stood her ground. “Believe what you want.”Sebastian sneered. “You must have run out of excuses. Hurry up and go home. You’re not to leave the house without my permission. Don’t forget, you’re pregnant with my child. If anything happens to the child, I’ll make your life a living hell!”Tamara panicked. “Sebastian Lynch! You have no right to strip me of my freedom! Might I remind you that you’ve signed the divorce settlement agreement too? We agreed we wouldn’t bother each other!”After reading the text, Sebastian knew how furious Tamara was.“Tamara Simmons, you have no right to bargain with me! You were the one who forced this marriage! And now, you have to listen to w
Benjamin smiled faintly. “Margot said the mixologist has just arrived. We’ll have to wait awhile.”Sebastian loosened his tie and sat on the couch. For some reason, the scene of Margot defending Tamara from him flashed across his mind. He couldn’t help but ask, “When are you planning to win that woman over?”Benjamin was stunned. “What?”“Nothing.”Just then, a waiter knocked on the door and entered, leaving a single glass on the table.Sebastian frowned. “Only one glass?”Benjamin explained, “This mixologist is a peculiar one. She only prepares three drinks a day. And those three drinks are this place’s specialty.”Sebastian picked up the glass and examined it. It didn’t look any different from other drinks. Upon smelling it, it didn’t smell like much either.He really couldn’t believe that this was their specialty.His annoyance flared, and he downed the entire glass.It had a nice burn to it and tasted good…Sebastian furrowed his eyebrows and struggled to describe the ta
