Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 974

This bastard actually dared to be so rude!

Lydia fumed internally, but for some reason, she found herself feeling a strange hint of anticipation.

As Sebastian's heavy breath brushed against her, she suddenly snapped to her senses and quickly shoved him away with all her strength.

"You've gone too far!" she shouted angrily.

Sebastian gave a sly smile, knowing his gamble had paid off. He had only been testing her. If she were truly angry, she would have slapped him by now.

However, she hadn't. Despite looking furious, there was more embarrassment in her expression than genuine rage.

"Lily, I think you should seriously consider this. Other than my background, in what way am I any worse than Juniper? Rather than letting him ruin you, wouldn't it be better to choose me?" Sebastian asked, still grinning.

"Shut your mouth! Don't call me Lily! You can address me as Ms. Lockhart or Lydia," Lydia said angrily.

"Sure thing, Lily," Sebastian replied with a beaming smile.

"You…" Lydia pointed a trembling finger at him, seething with frustration. But in the end, she only lowered her hand.

Just as Sebastian had guessed, she didn't truly hate him. In fact, she had fallen for him.

In terms of both looks and strength, Sebastian was far superior to Juniper.

"Let's get back to business. What about the deal we discussed earlier? Can you agree to my terms?" Lydia asked.

Sebastian rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Ms. Sidorov has helped me before, and it was through her that we met. But now, you're asking to have exclusive rights to all my future pill refinements. Isn't that a bit like burning bridges?"

"90%. I'll take 90% of the pills, and I'll make sure to send Deimante some other business to make up for it," Lydia bargained.

The entire time, Sebastian had stared at her and called her "Lily" over and over, and he had even made a few moves on her. She was honestly a little afraid of him.

Watching her flee, Sebastian couldn't help but smile smugly.

"It seems like I still have plenty of charm. Juniper, you've brought this upon yourself. Don't blame me for stealing your girl."

…

The next morning, Sebastian boarded a mystic crane with Irvin and headed for the Gaudium Sect to attend the banquet celebrating Galen's promotion to the Lesser Deity Master realm.

Roman, Deimante, and Ramiro also traveled with them, along with a few other people from Skyde.

The city's lord and a few powerful families, like Stephanie's family, were also present.
