Just then. Elliot Grant’s call came again.

Sebastian looked down at Stephanie’s hand clutching his own. Stephanie subconsciously let go.

“Then, then you go.”

Ugh, it’s so torturous.

Just leave. Don’t torture her here.

Seeing that she was about to bury her head under the quilt as well, Sebastian just pulled her back.

The marks on her neck, like vibrant roses, blossomed in his heart.

He chuckled softly and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead, “Be a good girl and get some rest.”

With that, he got up and left.

Stephanie’s heart skipped a beat, her mind racing. Suddenly, she felt very aggrieved.

When one is overwhelmed by grievance, it’s the moment to let it all out.

Her courage soared at that moment.

Just as Sebastian touched the doorknob, Stephanie blurted out, “Sebastian, you slept with me last night.”

Followed by a silence.

The air seemed to still in that instant.

Stephanie could feel her own breathing becoming uneven. Her pupils dilated as she stared at the back of Sebastian.

She couldn’t see his expression, but now she was really going all out.

She had kept her feelings hidden for so many years, and it had been a difficult struggle.

When she was in Fiorenza, she was afraid that others would discover her feelings for Sebastian.

Every time Sebastian’s friends in the underworld said things like, “Your sister is so cute, so understanding, here to pick you up…”

Those words constantly reminded Stephanie that she was Sebastian’s sister.

Even if they were not related by blood, everyone thought she was his sister.

She lacked confidence in completely altering that deeply ingrained perception and the thoughts of those families.

Given Sebastian’s position, his future partner would undoubtedly be someone of equal standing.

Whether it’s status or family background.

These constantly haunted Stephanie, making her feel that her love was really insignificant.

She was so afraid of this love that she dared not reveal it.

And out of fear, she kept a certain distance from Sebastian.

But that distance was completely shattered last night.

She couldn’t hide forever.

She had long grown tired of being his sister.

A silence.

She had prepared herself for the worst.
