Chapter 278 The Man in the Wheelchair

Joyce, confused, gently patted his back. "Sebastian, did your dad say something to you?"

Sebastian vehemently denied it. "No, I just... I suddenly felt scared of losing you, that's all."

"How could that be? Our baby is about to be born, and I'm counting on you to earn money for our baby. Alright, stop overthinking. You've been under too much pressure lately. Relax and enjoy yourself today."

Joyce tenderly rubbed Sebastian's face and stood on tiptoe to kiss his cheek. She smiled and asked, "Do you feel better now?"

Sebastian wrapped one arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace. His deep eyes were filled with emotions he couldn't hide. His warm lips gently brushed against Joyce's cheek, and he said hoarsely, "As long as you're here, I'm not afraid of anything."

With that, he lowered his head and covered her soft lips with his. The two stood on the lawn, basking in the bright midday sun, sharing a passionate kiss.

Sebastian let go of all his worries and fully enjoyed the happiness Joyce brought him. He kissed her more and more passionately, reluctant to let go even after a long time.

Sebastian gently caressed Joyce's slightly reddened lips with a smile. "One kiss and you're already overwhelmed? My, my, darling, you have quite the appetite."
