In the break room, Sebastian gently laid Stephanie down on the bed. Just as he was about to get up, he noticed her small hand still gripping the edge of his shirt.

A slight smile crossed his face. There was something oddly comforting about being needed like this. It felt familiar.

He carefully pried her hand off, tucked the blanket around her, and made sure she was comfortable before walking out of the break room.

Macro was waiting outside.

As soon as he saw Sebastian, frustration was written all over his face.

Sebastian raised an eyebrow. “Maybe you should stay a bit longer-”

“No.” Macro cut him off quickly, not letting him finish.

“Then what’s with that look? Don’t you want to stay longer in that place?” Sebastian teased.

Speechless, Macro thought to himself, ‘What? Do I look like I want to stay longer? That place? If anyone wants to go, let them. I’m trying to avoid it, not stay there. Why would I want more time there?‘

“Can’t someone else go instead?” Macro grumbled.

He knew exactly why Sebastian was sending him. The so–called exile was just a story for the outsiders, but still, Macro didn’t think the situation was as bad as it seemed. Sure, there were some problems, but nothing worth panicking over.

Sebastian moved to the couch, and a flight attendant appeared with a tray, handing him a glass of his favorite red wine.

Macro grabbed one for himself, too.

Sebastian said, “We can’t put this off. Make sure you hurry and handle the matter.”

Hearing that, Macro knew he had no choice but to go..

He nodded and grumbled, “Fine, but just this once. Don’t send me to that kind of rough place next time.”

Sebastian smirked. “That depends on how you handle it.”

Macro thought to himself, ‘Handle it? You mean my medical skills?‘

“Come on. I wasn’t thinking about it earlier,” he muttered. “Plus, I didn’t know you’d be in such a rush.”

Sebastian fell silent for a second.

“I know you’d never let Stefi get pregnant before marriage and deal with all that public judgment,” Macro added.

People’s words can be cruel. Some people just can’t help but speak trash.

Sebastian said with a snorting laugh. “Who would dare?”

At that, Macro thought, ‘Yeah, no one would dare.

With all the chaos happening in Long Harbor lately, it was obvious that anyone who messed with Stephanie would have to
