Brett was feeling a mix of emotions after Sebastian interrupted his attempt to kiss Agatha. Confusion, annoyance, and a hint of regret.

Was he happy that he didn’t make any mistake?

Or was he mad that he couldn’t follow what he desires?

Anyway, time went on and Sebastian joined Brett and Agatha for dinner.

Sebastian stared at them alternately. He raised his brows before saying, “So, what I saw before is someone helping Agatha to get the dust out of her eye, huh?” Sebastian questioned Brett, who remained silent.
