Listening to Macro’s devilish laughter and his words, Stephanie couldn’t help but feel completely dazed. She looked at Sebastian, sniffled, and said, “How could you…”

Sebastian saw her pouting and feeling wronged, and he bent down to give her soft lips a teasing peck, asking, “What’s wrong? Are you mad?”

Stephanie nestled closer in his embrace, expressing her dissatisfaction.

“Come on, don’t be angry,” Sebastian coaxed gently.

Stephanie responded with a ‘humph. She had thought she was making more than two million a year based on her own merits, but in reality, it was different. She felt like she had no skills at all.

“What about Skyriver Travel?” she asked.

Macro jumped in. “Don’t even think about it. That’s Sebastian’s company.”

“I wasn’t asking you,” Stephanie snapped, clearly frustrated. At that moment, both Sebastian and Stephanie wanted nothing more than to beat Macro up.

“I want your answer, Sebastian.” Stephanie insisted.

Sebastian gave a soft “yes“, meaning Macro was right.

Stephanie burrowed closer again. Sebastian looked down at her fluffy little head. Her fisherman’s hat had been pushed askew.

Seeing her pouty expression made Sebastian feel a rush of desire.

‘She’s so tempting,’ he thought to himself.

“Alright, don’t be mad anymore,” he said.

“I’ve been trying really hard to support myself.” Stephanie pouted.

When her studio opened, she wasn’t without clients. Even though the design fees weren’t high, it was enough to support herself.

And the high fees from Skyriver Travel? She had never questioned it. In fact, she thought the boss of Skyriver Travel had really appreciated her work. Now, however, she felt useless.

Sebastian replied, “Yeah, it’s impressive that you know how to make your own money.”

When he found out Stephanie opened her studio, he had a clear understanding of her financial situation in the Hart family.

But when she suddenly used the credit card he gave her, Sebastian’s mind went into a swirl. He thought something major had gone wrong. He still had many things to sort out, but at that moment, he couldn’t focus on anything else.

Macro chimed in, “Yeah, Stephanie is really smart, knowing how to earn her own money.”

“Stop talking,” Stephanie interjected.

“Quiet down,” Sebastian said at the same time.

Macro thinking, ‘Great, now I’m the bad
