Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 439

**TITLE: The Billionaire’s Last Obsession series 439**
**CONTENT: Chapter 439 A Man’s Concern**

Lillian managed to muster a smile that felt more like a mask than a genuine expression of happiness. “I promise I’ll be less busy soon, so I’ll definitely go—don’t worry about it,” she reassured Ashley, her voice tinged with an undertone of fatigue.

Ashley’s face brightened at Lillian’s concession. “Then go on inside; I have to get going now. And don’t forget to visit Madam Laura,” she said, her tone light yet filled with concern. With that, she turned on her heel and slipped into her car, the engine roaring to life.

As the sleek red sports car sped away from the curb, Lillian couldn’t help but smile wryly to herself. The way he drove was so emblematic of his personality—bold, reckless, and entirely captivating.

Shaking off her thoughts, she turned to head back to school, but something caught her eye—a pristine white car parked along the roadside. It struck her that Sebastian might own one just like it. A sudden flutter of anticipation filled her chest.

As she approached the vehicle, she noticed Sebastian stepping out, his features strikingly handsome, yet a shadow of worry clouded his expression.

“Why are you here?” Lillian asked, her tone direct, cutting through the tension that hung in the air.

Sebastian closed the distance between them, reaching out to gently caress her cheek with his thumb. “Did he hit you?” His voice was low, laced with concern, as if any revelation could shatter him.

Lillian met his gaze, her heart racing as she whispered, “You know.”

His eyes darkened with pain. “Yes, I already know. He hit you—why didn’t you tell me?” The memory of Unno’s earlier phone call ignited a firestorm of anger within him, a protective instinct surging to the forefront.

“It’s fine; it’s over now,” Lillian replied, attempting to reassure him with a soft smile. “Besides, we’ve cleared things up between us. From now on, it’s just Lillian in this world.”

Sebastian, however, felt a deep ache in his chest at her words. He pulled her into his arms, enveloping her in a protective embrace. “You have me; I’ll always be by your side—no matter what happens,” he vowed, his voice thick with emotion.

Lillian placed the bags on her desk, a smile creeping onto her face. “Someone sent them,” she replied, trying to downplay the situation.

Elsie scoffed, raising an eyebrow. “Wow, just these few bags are worth more than a bathroom in a Kingston apartment.”

“Not that much, right?” Lillian asked, genuinely puzzled. Although she didn’t pay much attention to brands, she recognized a few names, and the most expensive items she had seen were only in the tens of thousands.

Seeing Lillian’s blank expression, Elsie couldn’t help but feel smug. “See? I told you I know more about this stuff. These brands have both mid-range and high-end lines; your shopping bags are obviously high-end—almost everything starts at tens of thousands. When I was traveling, I swiped my brother’s card and splurged on a few pieces; he’s still furious with me about it.”

Lillian laughed, the tension from earlier dissipating slightly as she joined in on the light-hearted banter with her friends.
