Chapter 1 Take Responsibility for My Sister

Tamara Simmons felt a hot breath fanning across her neck and the smell of a man’s cologne flooding her nose before she fainted.The next morning, Tamara was finding it hard to breathe. It was as if someone was choking her. She pried her eyes open and saw a good-looking man glaring at her with hatred."How dare you scheme against me?" Sebastian Lynch roared. His hold was strong enough to snap Tamara’s neck if he wanted to.Tamara choked.Her vision blurred, and she struggled against Sebastian. This only made Sebastian tighten his hold on her. Tamara gasped for air, her face pale from the lack of oxygen.Her struggles seemed to be rewarded as the man loosened his hold on her. Even so, he still held Tamara by her throat.With the feeling of air rushing into her lungs, Tamara felt as if she had been given a second chance at life.Her vision was back, and she glanced at her surroundings. Almost immediately, her eyes widened into the size of saucers as she turned as white as paper.W

Chapter 2 You Must Get Pregnant

Tamara tried to break free. She gasped, wanting to scream but could only let out a screechy huff.Tamara was mute.She couldn’t even ask for help in the face of danger.Tamara sat in defeat, her eyes reflecting a sense of helplessness.The car arrived at a villa. Once the car rolled to a stop, the bodyguards left.Tamara bit her lip as she entered the living room. When Quentin saw her, he immediately slapped her."What the fuck do you think you’re doing, Tamara? Were you planning to buy birth control pills? Not a chance! You have to get pregnant with Sebastian’s child! Only by doing so will our family be saved!" Quentin exclaimed sadly as he glared at Tamara.Tamara signed back agitatedly, "How dare you? You have no say over my future!"Was she supposed to get pregnant with Sebastian’s child so that both of them could be used as leverage against him?She would never do that!"I’m your brother! You have to listen to me! You’re part of the Simmons family. Now that we’re on th

Chapter 3 Blackmailing the Lynch Family

Water Palazzo, the Lynch family’s manor.Quentin brought Tamara into the lavishly decorated living room. He hid away his arrogance and respectfully greeted William Lynch who was sitting on the couch."Hello, Mr. Lynch. This is my sister, Tamara. She was with Sebastian a month ago, which led to her pregnancy. How should we go about this?"Tamara hated this. She bit her lip and clenched her fists.She was nothing but a bargaining chip for Quentin.However, she could not fight back. After all, it was the least she could do for the Simmons family."What a joke!"William’s wife, Yareli Baiss, sneered. She stared disdainfully at Quentin."Are you saying that Sebastian took advantage of your sister? How can you prove it? You don’t need me to remind you how open the younger generations are, do you? How dare you blame your own actions on us? You must be out of your mind!" Yareli did not hold back on her words. Tamara’s face fell, and she turned to leave."Haha… Aren’t you planning to p

Chapter 4 Are You Waiting for Me to Carry You?

"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

Chapter 5 That Mute Woman

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

Chapter 6 Plan to Take Him

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

Chapter 7 What Games Are You Playing?

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

Chapter 8 She Is a Bartender

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

Chapter 9 He Lost His Sense of Taste

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?”

Chapter 10 No Right to Bargain

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
