Chapter 4

Author: Rich and Skinny
Once the three brothers had left, the originally weak Tammy instantly put on a different expression. She quickly stepped forward to block Blaire's path.

"Ms. Presley, this watch is so beautiful. May I take a look at it? Since it's for the three brothers, I can help you see who it would suit best."

Blaire looked at her coldly and firmly refused. "It's not for them."

Tammy's expression stiffened for a moment before she sneered. "Ms. Presley, don't you know that it's really pathetic to play hard to get?

"Well, I can understand you. You have put in so much effort, but they still don't love you. Of course, you can only resort to desperate measures."

With that, Tammy took advantage of Blaire's momentary distraction, grabbed the watch from Blaire, and smashed it onto the floor. In an instant, the watch worth a hundred million dollars shattered into pieces.

Blaire watched it happen in disbelief. Her anger surged up, and she raised her hand to slap Tammy across the face. The sound of a crisp slap echoed, and Tammy instinctively covered her swollen face in a daze.

However, Blaire felt it wasn't enough to vent her anger. When she wanted to slap Tammy again, her wrist was suddenly gripped tightly.

"Stop!" The three brothers suddenly rushed over and stared at Blaire coldly.

Seeing that her backers had arrived, Tammy immediately teared up. "Anthony, Brandon, Cameron, please let Ms. Presley hit me. It's my fault that I broke the watch she planned to give you. She has the right to be angry."

Brandon immediately felt bad for her. While wiping away her tears with his fingertips, he comforted her gently. "Don't cry, Tammy. The watch is for us, after all. It doesn't matter if it's broken."

Cameron's face turned extremely cold as he looked at Blaire with disgust. "It's just a watch, and yet you hit Tammy because of it. Blaire, you're really out of control.

"When you bid the watch for us, did you ever consider that we didn't even want it?"

Anthony's face was even darker, and he immediately called several bodyguards over. "Throw her into the pool. This is her punishment for hitting Tammy."

The bodyguards heard the order and immediately went over to throw Blaire, who was still in a daze, into the pool.

With a loud splash, Blaire was completely submerged and instantly became a drenched mess. What made it even more hopeless was that she couldn't swim at all.

"Help… Help…" She frantically flailed, but it only caused more water to rush into her nose and fill her lungs. She gradually lost her strength, and her movements became weaker. Her body felt heavier, the air in her lungs grew scarce, and everything in front of her blurred.

Just before losing consciousness, she heard the conversation of a few people by the pool.

"Anthony, Brandon, Cameron, it seems like Ms. Presley can't swim. Is she going to be okay?"

"She'll be fine. She's always been good at pretending. Now she's pretending that she can't swim, probably just to get us to look at her more."

"Tammy, you're too kind. She hurt you, but you still spoke up for her. She brought this upon herself."

"Yes, it's better if she dies. That way, we won't have to marry her."

Blaire was overwhelmed with despair. The darkness slowly consumed her, and her body continued to sink as she lost consciousness entirely.

When she regained consciousness, the sharp smell of disinfectant filled her nose.

She struggled to sit up. The doctor, who had been taking care of her for years, looked at her with deep concern and persuaded her. "Ms. Presley, you can't keep neglecting your health like this.

"Last time, you broke two ribs while trying to save the three brothers of the Carter family during the earthquake. Your body isn't as good as it used to be. How could you stay in the pool for so long?"

Just then, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open. Anthony, Brandon, and Cameron rushed in and asked in unison, "Who did you just say saved us during the earthquake?"

    Cameron suddenly pulled out a pair of wedding rings and dropped to one knee before everyone."Don't listen to them, Blaire. I know you actually love me, right?"Marry me. I love you. I want to take care of you for the rest of my life. Let's start a life together. No more misunderstandings, okay?" he begged.The diamond ring sparkled even more brightly under the bar lights.His eyes were filled with nothing but sincerity and love."You like my movies, so I'll take you with me wherever I go to film. My fans are reasonable. They'll accept you. We can go public with our relationship, and you'll have everyone's blessing."Matthew's expression darkened as he watched the three of them challenge him right to his face. Jealousy burned deep inside him.At that moment, Blaire gripped Matthew's hand, letting him feel her warmth. She smiled at him as if to calm him down.Then, she turned back to Brandon and Cameron, her smile turning cold."Haven't I made myself clear? I'm happy with my li

  • Knowing Her Heart   Chapter 24

    Tammy panicked the moment she heard what Matthew said. She quickly fell to her knees, begging for mercy. "I'm sorry! I was wrong! Please don't send me to prison!"She knew that if Matthew wanted her gone—even if she had done nothing wrong—she would still end up behind bars. Not to mention, she really had committed so many offenses.Tammy kept sobbing. The lingering effects of the drug made her voice sound oddly seductive, but Matthew didn't even give her a glance. His attention remained on Blaire by his side."No. A person who does wrong must be punished," he said coldly, leaving no room for compromise.When he finished speaking, Tammy was taken away before she had another chance to apologize.Just then, Anthony, Brandon, and Cameron rushed over."Blaire, we got stuck in traffic and came a little late. Are you alright?"They all worried about Blaire.Blaire didn't look at them or say a word.Anthony didn't mind her coldness. He held out a bouquet of fresh roses."Blaire, let

  • Knowing Her Heart   Chapter 23

    Anthony saw the messages too. His face darkened, and there was a dangerous glint in his eyes.Cameron glanced at it and couldn't hold back his anger. He kicked Tammy in the chest."How dare you lay a finger on Blaire! You are about to learn how wrong you are!"With that, Anthony called in the bodyguards and had them take Tammy to Nightfall Bar."If she was going to drug Blaire, let her get a taste of the suffering!"Brandon's eyes flashed with fury, and he gritted his teeth. He ordered the bodyguards to take a stronger drug along.Blaire still went to the bar the next evening at six, even though she knew it was a trap. However, she came with Matthew."If anything happens later, stay close to me and protect me," she said nervously.Matthew gave a faint smile and nodded. "Alright. Don't worry. As long as I am here, you can do whatever you want."They headed for the private room Tammy had reserved, only to hear chaos inside.When they opened the door, Tammy was in the middle of a

  • Knowing Her Heart   Chapter 22

    Tammy bit her lip and stomped in frustration, her expression dark."Brandon, you said you didn't want to marry me, and I've already asked to cancel the engagement. What more do you want? I just want things to go back to the way they were."I know it was wrong to take credit for saving your lives. I've already been punished. Can you forgive me?" she pleaded.She raised her voice and shouted through the door, but Brandon gave no response.Before long, Anthony and Cameron came out, annoyed by the noise."What is all this racket?" Anthony asked, displeased.Tammy instantly softened her voice and pursed her lips pitifully. "I asked Brandon to help me apply the medicine, but he said no. Can you help me?"She looked at the two of them with pleading eyes.Cameron refused without a second thought. "No. If he won't do it, I won't either. Don't you have your own hands? Or a mirror, maybe?"Anthony coldly refused to help her as well.Tammy's expression froze for a moment.Then, she noti

    Olivia cleared her throat and signaled everyone to quiet down. "I know how you treated Blaire. William and I saw it all. Matthew will deal with you, and we won't step in."But look what you've done to Tammy now. What about her reputation? What about the Carter name?"You said you liked her at first, and now you want to break off the engagement? I already made it public. I can't just take it back!"Unless the three of you find someone you truly want to marry. Otherwise, someone else will just end up getting hurt!"Right after she said this, Olivia stood up angrily and was about to leave.Matthew stepped forward and helped her, while Blaire followed close behind.Once they were gone, all the hope faded from Anthony's eyes."There is no chance anymore," he mumbled in disappointment.Brandon and Cameron stayed silent.After a long silence, Cameron clenched his fists and spoke hoarsely. "That can't be. Blaire chased after us for so long. How can she not like at least one of us?"S

  • Knowing Her Heart   Chapter 20

    The entire room fell silent as though the air had frozen.William and Olivia, seated in the center, looked furious. William slammed his cane against the floor, the sharp sound cutting through the silence and drawing all eyes to him."Anthony, Brandon, Cameron, explain yourselves. What on earth is going on?"With a crash, William threw his teacup to the floor, shattering it into pieces.At his words, they dropped to their knees. Their faces had gone pale, and it was clear they weren't in good shape either."Grandpa, it's my fault. I messed up, but I really don't want to marry Tammy. She lied to us. That's why we acted like we liked her and didn't marry Blaire—Aunt Blaire. But I've made up my mind now. I don't want to be stuck with someone like her. Please let me end the engagement!"Anthony spoke first, his voice firm.Brandon nodded immediately. "I feel the same way as Anthony. I never loved Tammy, and I never will. I'm not going to marry her. Grandpa, Grandma, please cancel the
