The room fell into a dead silence.Everyone was rendered speechless as they watched Eugene treat Sebastian with respect.Was Eugene Targery, the head of the Steinberg Targery family really apologizing to Sebastian?They reeled in shock as they tried to comprehend what was going on.Carl seemed to be the most affected. He sat motionlessly on the ground with a pale expression.He knew that he was screwed. He wasn't going to make it out of this situation alive.Vince also looked confused, staring at Sebastian in disbelief.Who would've thought that Sebastian, who wasn't even in his 30s, could be important enough to garner the respect of Eugene himself?Rosalie also blinked in confusion at Sebastian. The more time she spent with him, the more mysterious she found him.Terrence was shell-shocked. His grandfather was practically a king in Steinberg!Even the leaders of Steinberg could be toppled with just a few words from his grandfather. So, seeing his grandfather apologize so sin
Fergus, who had been in Carl's office, paced anxiously across the room. He was anxious because he saw Vince arrive and then Eugene himself.Why would Eugene show up?Fergus was panicking. He had a sinking feeling that the situation had become more complicated than he had expected.He considered his options for a while before deciding that leaving was the best option.Fergus shot to his feet and rushed to the entrance, preparing to make a speedy exit. However, once he reached the door, it swung violently as it was kicked open.Fergus had unfortunately been on the other side of the door as it swung open, and it had slammed right in his face.As such, his nose was broken, and there was a steady stream of blood trickling from it."What the fuck…" Fergus gurgled through the pain. "Who the fuck?"He raised his head to glare at the person who had kicked the door open and locked eyes with Sebastian."Sebastian? Why are you here?" he demanded. "Aren't you supposed to be…" Fergus traile
Crystal and Dante rushed into the room alongside a few men."Fergus, what's wrong?" Crystal asked worriedly when she saw Fergus standing angrily on the balcony.Fergus clutched the bedsheets as he roared, "Is this what you mean when you say you'll keep an eye on her? Where is she?""I-I…" Crystal stammered. It was clear what had happened. Whitney had escaped again.Crystal's face was pale with fury as she grumbled, "How could she do this again?"She then turned to Dante and shouted, "What are you doing just standing there? Find her!""Y-Yes…" Dante stammered and left with a bunch of men to find Whitney.Meanwhile, Sebastian and Rosalie had returned to the convenience store and found Whitney leaning near the door."Why are you here?" Sebastian asked in confusion.Whitney raised her head, meeting his eyes. With no regard for Rosalie's presence, she ran into Sebastian's arms."Don't leave me, Sebastian! Let's get back together!" she sobbed.Her actions and her words made Seba
That was right. Whitney had kissed Sebastian in front of Rosalie.Sebastian felt his brain short circuit and he remained rooted to the spot.Whitney's kiss was domineering and laced with fury. In her anger, she bit his lip too hard, drawing blood.Sebastian hissed in pain, which brought him back to his senses. He quickly pushed Whitney away. "Are you insane?" he demanded.Whitney wiped her mouth before yelling, "I'm not insane! I love you! I want to get back together with you!"She demanded angrily, "Why can she be with you, but I can't? I know you love me! You do, don't you?"Her voice was tinged with desperation, and Sebastian frowned. For the first time in his life, he realized how nonsensical Whitney could be."No, don't be ridiculous. What we had ended the day you signed the divorce papers."Whitney ignored him and shook her head as she argued, "No! You're lying! I know you love me! If you don't love me, why did you save me from the Carltons?"She asked through tears, "
Rosalie stomped her feet angrily as she screeched, "How are you this obnoxious and shameless? Sebastian has already said that he doesn't love you! Why are you still here?"Whitney raised her chin defiantly as she replied, "He'll love me again. Don't worry about it. I'm staying here tonight whether you like it or not!"Rosalie was thoroughly annoyed. She turned to Sebastian, raising an eyebrow. "Well, say something!"Sebastian sighed and turned to Whitney. "It's getting late. Please go home.""No! I won't!" Whitney replied stubbornly.Just then, there was a flash of lightning followed by a crack of thunder before it started to pour."Great! Now, you can't make me leave!" Whitney said with a smile as she took a seat.Rosalie glared at the skies and stomped her feet angrily but could do nothing else but sit.Sebastian sighed in exasperation.Why couldn't it rain before Whitney arrived, or better yet, why can't it just rain after she leaves? Why did it have to rain right then? I
"You guys sleep on the couch. I'll sleep in the room," Sebastian said helplessly.Whitney and Rosalie exchanged a glance at his words. Then, they huffed and returned to their respective rooms. The disturbance seemed to have settled for now.Feeling quite tired, Sebastian let out a sigh and reclined back on the couch. Dealing with women sometimes required a firm hand.The next day, Sebastian woke up and spent some time meditating before getting up to make breakfast for the two women. It was a simple meal of fried eggs and two cups of milk.Once Whitney and Rosalie were up, Sebastian called out, "Breakfast is ready." They quickly freshened up and joined him at the table, exchanging looks of mutual dislike."Ms. Sutton, when are you leaving?" Rosalie asked.Whitney smirked and asked, "Why should I leave?""Aren't you going to marry Fergus?" Rosalie asked purposely. "Not anymore."Rosalie chuckled. "You're quite fickle, aren't you? Just like when you divorced, it was a decisi
Crystal and Dante were in disbelief."Get back together?" Crystal exclaimed loudly. "Winnie, are you out of your mind? You want to marry this man again?""Yes, Mom. I've made up my mind," Whitney retorted.Crystal was furious. She slapped Whitney across the face. "Made up your mind? Remember this, you're my daughter, part of the Sutton family. Getting back together with this man is out of the question! We absolutely do not agree!""Right! Winnie, are you losing it? You wanna go down that road again? What's wrong with Fergus?" Dante chimed in.Was Whitney going insane? Or had Sebastian slipped her some kind of love potion?Getting back together with him? Unbelievable!Whitney covered her face. Her eyes brimmed with tears. "Mom, I've thought it through! I wanna marry Sebastian again! Nobody can stop me!""You! You're really driving me crazy!" Crystal was so angry that she held her hand against her chest, breathing heavily. "Whitney, if you marry this guy, I'll disown you! You'll
Rosalie rolled her eyes and looked at Sebastian with a smile. "I'll be heading back first. I'll drop by later to see you."With that, she inched closer and kissed him on the cheeks when he wasn't paying attention.Sebastian frowned. When he was about to say something, Rosalie ran out happily.He sighed helplessly. At least things were peaceful since all of them had left.However, Sebastian was still thinking about what Whitney had said.Marry him again? Was it really that easy?…When Whitney stepped into Frostwave Corporation, she immediately slipped into her role as CEO and started working hard.At noon, Fergus walked into her office with a gloomy expression."Whitney, you need to give me an explanation!" Fergus said coldly to her.Whitney frowned when she saw him. She let out a breath and said, "I'm sorry, Fergus, but I can't marry you.""Is it because of Sebastian?""Yes." "Fuck! I don't get it! How is he any better than me? Is he richer than me? Is he more powerful t
