Even though he needed more lighting to be able to work, he willingly turned down the lights so she could sleep better. He also couldn’t stop himself from stealing glances at her every now and then.

Even with tons of work documents in his hands, he watched her from time to time as she reclined softly against the pillows like a cute little toddler. And the tenderness in his eyes also spoke volumes. She looked so cute! Too cute!

“My wife is super adorable!” he murmured.

With her looking like this, Sebastian couldn’t possibly concentrate on his paperwork.

He could hardly help himself anymore as he reached out to touch her. He gently brushed his fingers against her nose, cheeks, and lips. It wasn't weird or a

    Sebastian remained short of breath as he gazed at the woman. He was almost drooling!How does someone look so ethereal?Like a celestial being!Her dewy skin and rosy cheeks made her even more dreamlike.Angelic and soft!She looked too good to be true!Too sweet to look at!Meanwhile, Kourtney felt the man’s eyes on her like a physical touch, intense and burning.Her cheeks reddened.He stepped closer, his stare more intense by the second. His eyes practically darkened as they roamed over her, like he was memorizing every inch of her—Her gown, her hair, her face.He looked like a man who’d just seen an angel on earth and wasn’t sure he truly deserved her. She was so beautiful!“Honey.” Sebastian finally called in a rough tone. He was really fighting to keep control. “You
 you’re breathtaking.”“Stop being so cheesy,” Kourtney teased.But boy! He’s looking at her like he wants to eat her alive.“Cheesy? I’m just telling the truth, Mrs. Woods,” he rasped.She tilted her head playfully.

    Kourtney blushed. “Okay, okay, it’s kinda cute. I didn’t think people would care this much.”“Care? Honey, they’re “obsessed”. Damn! You’re wayyyy smarter than I thought, posting that. You’re playing the game like a pro. I’m proud of you, babe.”“If I didn’t know you, I’d think you were shading me,” Kourtney replied with a snort.“Never! NO! Seriously. You definitely know how to give the people what they want. I underestimated you so much. I'm sorry!” Lilian said laughing.Kourtney rolled her eyes, but her cheeks warmed like they would burst anytime soon. “Okay, fine, it was kinda fun. But you know this social media stuff isn’t my thing. I only posted ‘cause you’ve been hunting me for days.”“And look at the results! You’re a natural, Kourt. Like
 Babe, you broke the internet! Two million likes? And the way Sebastian was looking at you? Whew, I need a fan!”The photos had looked even more dreamy with their enchanting Victorian-era-like horse riding gear. And as much as her best friend

    Sebastian nodded, fighting hard to hide the smug smile creeping up his face. “Alright, let’s do it.”They posed in front of the stables, Kourtney’s smile radiant. His heart thudded as he looked at her, the pain of his mother, Roseline Serena Woods’ absence mingling with the fierce love he felt for his wife.They snapped a few selfies, her head tilted against his, both grinning like lovesick fools. “These are perfect,” she said, scrolling through the shots.“Great! Let’s send for the staff! I want more pics of us,” Sebastian suggested.For unknown reasons, he liked this idea very much.Yvonne and Elise arrived to take more, capturing them laughing, arms around each other, the sun casting a golden halo around them.Soon, he led her to a sleek black stallion horse named Midnight, and the servants also followed to keep up snapping more photos.“We’re riding together,” he said, helping her up.Kourtney settled in front, her hands gripping the saddle nervously.“Sebastian, I
 I think I’m go

    Kourtney’s resolve cracked. She pouted her lips like a baby who needed some petting then threw her arms around his neck.“Hubby, I’m fine. It’s just that
 That family
 they’re not worth it. I don’t want to ruin our day with their drama.”She pressed herself against his solid chest in a coquettish manner.“Ohh! That's it?” Sebastian chuckled.His strong arms encircled her waist, cradling her. And before she could say another word, he lifted her off the ground, twirling her around like she weighed nothing.Kourtney squealed, her laughter bubbling out as he twirled her around the room. Her brown hair bounced, and for a moment, she felt like a little girl again, free, light, adored.“Sebastian! Put me down!” she gasped between laughs, her hands gripping his shoulders.She was starting to feel dizzy after about half a minute of his twirling.He slowed down. “Let’s do something fun today. Forget the world. Just you and me.”It was a Friday and they had both stayed at home from work. Perhaps

    Margaret’s lips trembled, but she forced a weak nod. She’d called Kourtney dozens of times, leaving voicemails that went unanswered.“I’ll keep trying mother.”“Oh yes. Try! That's all you're good at!” Florence was harsh with her words but she didn't give a damn.Kourtney hated them now and they probably deserved it. But right now, she didn’t care about guilt or apologies. She cared about power, and Kourtney was their key to it.Her marriage to Sebastian should’ve catapulted the Allen Corporation to new heights. She was supposed to be their golden ticket, but she had turned her back on them.Why must the Allen Corporation suffer by remaining where it was before and even after her marriage to the richest man in Melbourne?Wouldn't that be a shame?Wouldn't their enemies make a mockery and caricature of them?The room fell silent, the weight of Florence’s disappointment crushing them all.This feels more like a battleground than a family meeting.The Allens had gathered for this meeting

    Sebastian set his coffee down, his mind already racing with this bright new idea.Why not build her an event management company? Her own brand, her own rules.He could see it now
 the vision.Kourtney’s very own empire, built from the ground up, with her name in lights. The thought sent a thrill through him, his possessive instincts flaring. He was a man of action, and once an idea took root, he didn’t wait.“Jamie!” he called, his deep voice cutting through the silence of his office.Jamie, always ready and waiting for his next task quickly came through the door, tablet in hand. “Yes, sir?”“Get me the contact for that real estate guy, the one who found the downtown estate last month. I need a prime location for a new business venture.
