Chapter 50
Sebastian flicked his finger lightly, and with a crash, the wine bottle shattered as if it had been struck by a bullet.
Then, he slapped Lyra across the face.
Still feeling unsatisfied, he slapped her again and again
Lyra was bewildered by the blows. Dizzy and seeing stars, she fell to the ground.
Once considered a beauty, her face was now swollen and bruised. Blood was trickling from her mouth, and several of her teeth were knocked out.
“Get out of here now! If you don’t, I’ll kill you!” Sebastian’s voice was ley and emotionless.
He was beyond furious. If he hadn’t arrived in time, there would have been unimaginable consequences.
“Does your face still hurt?”
Sebastian looked at Lillian’s swollen face with genuine concem.
“It’s okay. It’ll get better in a while. Thank you for saving me,”
,” Lillian said gratefully. This was the second time Sebastian had saved her.
Of course, that didn’t count the time at the Smith family’s place before.
“You’re my woman, and it’s my duty to save you. Instead, I failed to protect you. I’m sorry.” Sebastian was full of apologies.
You have nothing to apologize for. Remember, we’re just pretending to be married,” Lan reminded him.
Sebastian held her shoulders and said, “I’ve already told you that there’s no agreement between us. You’re my wife, and I’ll earn money to support you.”
“I have hands and feet. I don’t need you to support me, and I don’t want to be a trophy wife. I’ll get a job in a couple of days, but for now, we need to move,” Lillian said.
“There’s no need to move at all. I don’t think it’ll be long before those people regret it and beg you to come back to work at the company,” Sebastian said meaningfully. “How is that possible? I’m not that important to the company. It’s not like the company can’t function without me.” Lillian shook her head with a bitter smile.
“I’m sure they’ll invite you back before dark today. We’ll make a bet if you don’t believe me,” Sebastian said with a smick.
“What do you want to bet on?” Lan asked.
“If I win, you have to let me kiss you.” Sebastian showed a mischievous smile.
Lillian’s face turned red instantly. “Okay. But if you lose, you can’t ever touch me without my consent.”
“It’s a deal!”
Sebastian raised a triumphant smirk. Following that, he walked aside and dialed Casper’s number. “Why hasn LAndrew gotten Lillian to sign the contract yet?”
Casper sensed Sebastian’s anger and hurriedly explained, “Mr. Wilder, I was just about to report this matter to you. Andrew just went to the Smith residence, but Mrs. Wilder was driven away by those people.
“Andrew then gave them a lesson and left the contract behind. He warned the Smith family to hurry up and get Mrs. Wilder back to sign the contract.”
“Go remind him again. Make sure the contract is signed before nightfall,” Sebastian said firmly.
After hanging up the phone, Sebastian returned to the living room and picked up the Seraphic Tear Pendant from the table.
Although Lyra had snatched the Seraphic Tear Pendant necklace, she hadn’t appreciated it. Instead, she tossed it onto the table.
“ll put it on for you”
“past wait a moment!”
Lillian snatched the Seraphic Tear Pendant necklace. “Andrew Miller Imeeled as soon as he saw this pendant and told me it’s the supreme token. What’s going on?
Sebastian nodded, “Yes, indeed. This is the Seraphic Tear Pendant necklace, the supreme token.”
“What? Why do you have the supreme token?” Lillian was shocked.
The Supreme One was like a god. It was said that he could govern the world with a stroke of his pen and dominate the universe with his combat skills.
Although rumors said the Supreme One was ugly and old, it didn’t detract from his legendary status.
The supreme token was an extraordinary treasure.
“Fine, Tronfess. I’m the Supreme One,” Sebastian said with a look full of himself.
