Chapter 675
She was thinking about another man while he was right there, and she even had the guts to tell him!
Sebastian's face quickly turned sour.
Stephanie, slow to catch on, lifted her head and asked Sebastian, "Sebastian, are you done arguing with Emmert?" Sebastian looked at her with a frown and asked, "Huh? Are you thinking about Sullivan?"
"Eh? Did I say I was thinking about Sullivan? Uh... Sebastian, don't get the wrong idea... I just noticed something."ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"What?"
"When Sullivan saved me just now, I saw that his exposed skin was covered in scars, a whole patch of them, crisscrossing. I bet his back is the same."
Stephanie was eyeing another man's waist!
Sebastian's mouth twitched as he asked, "And? Your point being?"
"I'm trying to say that I wasn't thinking about Sullivan himself, just something about him. So Silver Fox, don't misunderstand. In my eyes and my heart, there's only you, no one else."
Stephanie looked at Sebastian earnestly, sincerity in her voice.
Sebastian's displeasure instantly evaporated.
He found Steph's words increasingly sweet. An impulse to taste her words suddenly surged within him.
Stephanie was squatting down when Sebastian suddenly bent over and kissed her on the lips, startling her so much that she fell flat on her butt.
Then she looked around, her face beet red, uncomfortably asking Sebastian, "Sebastian, what are you doing? There's so many people around." Sebastian said, "I couldn't help it."
Stephanie's face turned even redder; Sebastian pulled her up from the ground. She lowered her head and said, "Sebastian, if you want to kiss me, wait until we get home. How bad would it look if we were seen by others?" What she meant was that he could kiss her whenever he wanted when no one was around, as long as they weren't seen by others.
Steph was just too cute.
Sebastian held back his laughter. He said with a grin, "All right, noted."
"But Sebastian, Sullivan did save me earlier."
"I'll thank him personally."
"When he saved me earlier, I asked him if he had anything to do with what happened before. Sebastian, guess what he said?" "Hmm?" Sebastian raised an eyebrow.
Was she not worried about being discovered by the other party for voicing her suspicions out loud?
Was she not afraid they might act against her to cover up the truth?
Stephanie looked confused as she said, "He said he's no good and told me to stay away from him in the future." "And then?"
"There's no then. My feelings are
mixed right now. I feel like if Sullivan really did something to me, he might have been forced, not willing

Sebastian gently rubbed her head and said, "What's going on in that little head of yours all day. You don't need to think about these things. Just remember to be careful and protect yourself when I'm not around. Leave everything else to me."
Stephanie blinked her bright eyes at him and said, "You were scared, weren't you?" "Yeah, I was scared."
Stephanie felt a tug in her heart at his response. She couldn't help but
patting his back lightly to comfort him,. "Don't be scared. I'll be fine. I promise I'll always be with

Sebastian instinctively hugged her back, feeling like he was holding the most important thing in the world.
