"Seb, it's me, Marilyn."

Sebastian found himself stunned for a moment, then stood up and opened the door. "Sorry, Mrs. Bishop... I didn't realize it was you."

"No worries... I heard you've been acting a bit off these days, so I came to see if you're feeling unwell."

"No..."

"Is it something Steph did?"

The mere mention of Stephanie seemed to trigger a surge of anger in Sebastian's face. He didn't even bother to sugarcoat his feelings.

Marilyn quickly sensed something was off: "That troublemaker Steph... always causing a ruckus. Seb, you wait here; I'll go fetch her to apologize to you!" Sebastian almost stopped her, but then thought, Isn't it Stephanie's habit to flee after a fight, too scared to face him?

He wanted to ask her what she thought of him.

In the end, even with Marilyn's intervention, Stephanie didn't make an appearance.

However, by the evening, Sebastian had received a bank transfer notification.
