He didn’t say anything. He got up and stood by the window, lighting a cigarette with his back to her.

The moonlight traced his sharp silhouette, overlapping perfectly with the figure in Tammy’s memory. But when he turned around, the coldness in his eyes reminded her once again that this was not her husband.

Her husband didn’t smoke.

“I’ll have someone arrange for your departure tomorrow.”

He blew out a ring of smoke. “I suggest you go find my brother and get some answers. Although…” He flashed a cruel smile. “I heard he has amnesia? He probably knows nothing, including the fact that he has an older brother.”

Tammy reacted a second too late. “Wait, so you already knew Bovine…

“Taven.”

She forced herself to correct the name. “You already knew Taven had amnesia while he was with me?”

“Yes.”

“Then why didn’t you contact him?”

He laughed, a sound that bordered on sadistic. “Contact him? Why do you think he lost his memory in the first place? It’s better this way. It saves me the trouble of having to finish him off myself.”

This man is a villain. He wants to hurt Taven!

A surge of killing intent boiled up from her heart.

But she hid it well.

She hadn’t fully recovered yet, so she was no match for him, and the place was crawling with his men. She couldn’t escape.

She bit her lower lip so hard she tasted blood. She couldn’t let this bastard sense her intent.

“Then just let him go. He won’t fight you for anything.”

She thought she was hiding it perfectly, but Norman had seen the murderous flash in her

start.

I feel a wave of warmth through me.

After I lied to her and she thinks I’m a threat, her first instinct is to try and protect Taven.

She’s so foolishly loyal.

She’s in this mess and she’s still trying to protect me.

I want to pull her into my arms and kiss her, but I can’t

She had lost her mask at the gala and revealed her true face. If he showed any sign of caring for her now. people would realize they were connected.

That would put her in constant danger. As the woman by his side, she would never know peace.

He would take her home, but not yet.

“You’d better make sure he stays out of my sight. Maybe then I’ll be merciful enough to let him live

Tammy was fuming. This man was unbelievable!

Yet she forced a smile and said, “Fine, I understand.”

Norman stared at her for a few seconds before suddenly crushing his cigarette and walking toward her.

Tammy instinctively backed away, but he grabbed her by the chin.

“Remember this face.” He forced her to look him in the eye. “Don’t get us mixed up again next time?

His breath brushed against her face, carrying a faint scent of tobacco.

He let go and walked out without looking back.

Tammy quickly called out, “When can I leave?”

Before the door closed, he dropped a single word. “Tomorrow.”

The hotel was still full of his enemies. It wasn’t the right time for her to go.

Tammy sat on the floor and slumped back. The tension that had been gripping her finally began to ease.

One moment she was thinking about being set up tonight and how to get revenge. The next, she was thinking about Norman and Taven having the exact same face.

Eventually, she fell asleep right there on the floor.

Norman hadn’t actually left. He was leaning against the wall outside, slowly exhaling a long breath.

James walked over. “Sir…”

“You’d better shut your mouth right now, or I might actually punch you.”

James went silent instantly. He knew Norman wasn’t kidding.

Norman rolled up his sleeve and felt around his arm. He caught a corner and peeled off a layer of

material.

It was a patch of synthetic skin with a tattoo on it. It blended perfectly with his actual skin, leaving no trace. He had put it on right before entering the room.

I never intended to use this identity to reunite with Flowie, so I can’t leave a single opening.

I know her too well; she’d look for any tiny detail to prove who I am.

Luckily, I fooled her.

After standing there for a while, he spoke. Find out why she was here:

He wasn’t stupid. He realized the moment he saw her that something was wrong with her body. Otherwise, Brock’s goons would never have been able to lay a finger on her.

The unsteady footing, the glazed eyes, and the sudden drop in strength made it obvious her state was off Combined with her mention of anesthesia, he had already put the pieces together.
