98. WHAT IFS
CELINE’s POV
Sebastian walked up to me and leaned over and murmured.
something into my ear. “I don’t care what your purpose for getting the marriage certificate…” His voice was husky as he spoke. “But during this particular period of time… you’re still Mrs. Anderson, my wife. Now that you want to sleep with my sister, are you trying to show them that our marriage is fake?”
He does have a point in that regard. But….
“Come on, have the porridge first. Otherwise, it will get cold soon…” he shifted the topic as he pulled me by the hand and dragged me to the table. “Don’t worry, I won’t touch you… I will never touch your without your permission, Celine…”
He drew a chair over for me and helped me sit down by gently pushing my shoulders.
“Am I that scary…?” he asked, his tone was playful, and I looked up at him with my eyes wide open and a sense of alertness. “Hey! That look in your eyes is making me very uncomfortable. Don’t look at me. like that…”
I maintained my silence, and he looked at me with intense
concentration.
“Yes… I am a man, Celine… but I will never force myself on you. Do. you remember the first time we did it?” he asked and I blushed so hard that it made him laugh. “It was you who took the initiative, right? and it was also you who provoked me the second time on the island,
was still you who had seduced me, wasn’t it?’ ‘he held my chin with a little

feeling so embarrassed.

He was right, though… I was the one who made the first move to him. But I really don’t care anymore. I only did that because of my plans to make him fall in love with me and take revenge on my sister.
I just shrugged my shoulders and began eating the porridge that Mr. Lee had cooked up for me. “Sebastian…” after taking two mouthfuls of the food, I turned to look at the man who took a seat next to me at the table. “If I weren’t in the picture… would you marry her?”
“If I had to give you another chance, would you still choose to replace her and give up your virginity?” he countered, and I was taken aback by what he said. His eyes were hollow and dark as he stared at me.
I couldn’t bring myself to look directly into those beautiful blue eyes for some reason, so I averted my gaze and began to fiddle with the porridge with the spoon in my hand. “Yes, I would… Because I needed the money for my mother…”

Sebastian’s sudden outburst of laughter took me by surprise.” Therefore, don’t bother asking about the “what ifs,” because you would still show up and give me yourself, no matter what the situation was…”
What kind of answer was that?
Whatever! I didn’t want to ask him any more questions.
Sebastian’s smile slowly faded and he frowned when we heard another knock on the door. “Young Master! Your mom and dad are looking for you…”
For the first time, we looked at each other in an extremely tacit way.
“Take your time and eat. I’ll just go and talk to them for a while…” he said and got up from his seat, leaving me without waiting for my
response.
As soon as he closed the door, I set the spoon down and walked over

to the bathroom. No matter how exquisite the dishes were, I would be full after just a few bites because I have a low appetite.
I closed the door to the bathroom, and rubbed my shoulders, experiencing a great deal of pain. My anxiety had been through the roof for the past couple of days as repeatedly played through in my head the outcome of my failure several thousand times.
Nevertheless… I never in a million years imagined that I would end up getting married to this man, but no matter what the ending was, those two days were so draining that I needed this shower and a good night’s sleep.
After taking off my clothes, I folded them up neatly and laid them out on the sink. I stepped into the stall and turned the kn ob on… letting -the warm water make its way down my face, and to the rest of my
body.
In the haze, my eyes were lifeless, and my face was pockmarked with exhaustion. There was no spark of enthusiasm anywhere in my features.
After a speedy shower, I noticed that my head began to feel unusually heavy for no apparent reason. I couldn’t tell if it was because the room was too stuffy or if it was due to something else; all I knew was that I was having trouble breathing.
I gave my temples a quick squeeze and then hurriedly turned off the shower. Thankful that there was a clean towel that had always been hanging on the rack. I pulled it down, and quickly dried my body and my hair.
After drying off in the stall, I wrapped the towel around my body and stepped out, only to realize that I had forgotten to bring any clothes with me. I heaved a sigh as I emerged from the restroom and walked barefoot onto the carpeted floor of the bedroom.

I made my way cautiously towards Sebastian’s wardrobe in search of clothes that I could temporarily borrow, but I was taken aback when I saw a vast collection of dazzling clothing for women.
Is everything being prepared for me?
I smiled and ran my fingers over the various types of dresses and fabrics that were hanging neatly inside the closet. I couldn’t help but gasp in delight.
I casually pulled out a white nightdress and went back to the room, but after taking just a couple of steps… I started to feel a little lightheaded.
I let out a small sigh, sat back on the bed, and reached out with one hand to squeeze the space between my eyebrows.
I need to get dressed soon. I don’t want Sebastian to see me like this because he might get the idea that I’m trying to seduce him again.
I pulled off the towel that had been wrapped around my body. However, before I could put on the nightdress, there was a slight noise at the door, and I tensed up in response to it.
My hand froze up all of a sudden, and it seemed as though I had suddenly realized something.
As a reflex, I turned my head and saw Sebastian’s tall and fit figure standing by the He looked surprised too, and as he stared at
