Chapter 155

Stephanie asked herself if she was scared.

After witnessing these kinds of situations repeatedly with the Giovanni family, the fear she had felt the first time she saw Sebastian take a life had long since faded.

She glanced indifferently at the lifeless body on the ground. “Was he one of Lancelot’s men?”

Stephanie had overheard Sebastian and Lorenzo discussing Lancelot back at Mount Spring.

Sebastian nodded, then leaned in and kissed her cold lips, his movements slow and tender.

Stephanie’s mind buzzed for a second, and she instinctively pushed against Sebastian. “No way.”

‘For crying out loud, Sebastian, there’s a dead body right here. And Elliot and the others are all watching. What are you trying to do?

‘Are you seriously letting everyone see that the sister you raised for years has now become your woman?‘ she wondered.

Elliot saw what Sebastian was doing to Stephanie, and even someone as composed as him felt his brain short–circuit for a

moment.

He had more or less guessed what had happened last night. But seeing Sebastian openly kiss Stephanie like this was beyond anything they had expected.

His mind struggled to keep up, and he quickly turned around along with the rest of the bodyguards.

If even Elliot was having trouble processing this, Stephanie was no better.

She did not exactly see what had happened last night as something to be proud of. She had assumed that she and Sebastian would need time to figure things out and sort through their relationship.

But here he was, not giving anyone, including her, a chance to react.

Just as Stephanie was about to struggle, Sebastian caught her hand.

His deep voice, now tinged with something more sensual, whispered, “You still dare to run?”

Stephanie stammered, “No, it’s just—”

She could not even form a full sentence.

It was only when she started to feel breathless that Sebastian finally let her go.

At that moment, Stephanie was panting, her face flushed red.

Sebastian rested his forehead against hers. “Why did you come here? Hmm?”

She always needed plenty of rest and food whenever she caught a cold. She had just eaten some fruit, and Sebastian had assumed she would take a proper nap, so he had told Elliot to bring Carl over.

Stephanie nestled against him, her voice muffled against his chest. “Sofia is coming.”

nodded. “She told me to pick her up from the airport in three hours.”
