Chapter 53

Catlin sighed again, glancing at the ward. “Alright, enough. Don’t forget you’ve qua Mr. Hodge’s birthday banquet to Get a move on, don’t waste time?

“But what about Stephanie Tyler hesitated.

“I’ll handle it,” Catlin cut him off, eyes narrowing.

She had figured it out by now. Threats wouldn’t work on Stephanie

It was time for a different tactic–sweet–talk her into coming back.

Meanwhile, Stephanie slid into the car. Only then did she realize there was someone else in the front seat.

“Macro? What brings you here?” Stephanie was surprised.

As the famous cardiologist from Fiorenza, Stephanie thought Macro would be busy dealing with surgeries and businew. She didn’t expect to see him here.

Macro turned around, grinning at her. “Well, well, look at you. Hiding so well, I swear, if Sebastian didn’t find you soon, he’d start digging up graves to see if you were buried there.”

Stephanie felt a pang of guilt. She shot a quick, guilty glance at Sebastian sitting next to her.

Sebastian didn’t make any comments. He snatched Stephanie’s phone without asking. Stephanie almost jumped up. “Hey, give it back to me,” she declared.

“I’m just checking if anything’s suspicious.” Sebastian explained.

Stephanie watched in stunned silence as Sebastian scrolled through her contacts, messages, and WhatsApp.

Was he investigating her? She couldn’t believe it.

She hesitated for a moment, then snatched her phone back. “What’s this? I’ve been out of school for years!” she complained.

Back then, the rule was no dating while in school. But wasn’t in school anymore. Stephanie hated it when Sebastian tried to investigate her.

Sebastian just chuckled. In one smooth motion, he pulled her onto his lap.

Stephanie was feeling uncomfortable. Her eyes widened. “Wait… Macro is still here.”

“That’s fine.” Sebastian said. He pressed a button, and the divider between the front and back seats slid up without warning.

Stephanie squirmed in his lap, trying to get free. “Sebastian, I’m grown up now!”

Sebastian broke into a soft laughter. “Is that so? So now you’re ready for a relationship?”

Stephanie frowned. Relationship? She didn’t even think about it.

She remained silent, but Sebastian pressed on. “Or are you planning to go through with that engagement with Chris Ashford? The wedding is only a few days away. If I hadn’t come back… would you really have gone through with it?”

Stephanie felt a chill creep down her spine. There was something in his voice–dangerous.

“No” she replied.

“Really?” Sebastian raised an eyebrow,

Elliot had already done the background check. Stephanie had never fought back.

Now, feeling the weight of Sebastian’s presence, Stephanie couldn’t take it any longer. “Chris was never going to marry me,” she explained.

She was honest about this.

She hadn’t resisted the engagement because she knew Chris wasn’t going to go through with it. Especially with Olivia involved.

And even more so–she had no idea if the Casalini family was truly gone.

If someone was still out there, watching, waiting for her to make a wrong move, she couldn’t risk Sebastian getting caught in the crossfire.

“Are you so sure? Sebastian asked.

“Well, you saw it for yourself. He abandoned me for another woman,” Stephanie shrugged and replied.

Sebastian remained silent. The mention of “another woman” made the atmosphere sink even further.

Although Stephanie’s situation with Chris had already made him displeased, the fact that the brat from the Ashford family had abandoned Stephanie for another woman made him even more furious.
