Remorse After Breaking Up



Lyra turned to Lillian and pointed at her, angrily saying, "Grandpa sent you to please Mr. Harris, and what did you do? You didn't just fail to cheer him up, but you also injured his... You're going to ruin us all!"

"What!"

"Lillian, what are you trying to do?"

"Do you really want the company to go bankrupt before you're satisfied?"

Everyone was furious and rebuked her one after another.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Elijah was so angry that he raised his hand and prepared to slap her.

"Stop!" Just then, a loud shout came from outside the door.

Everyone looked up and saw a man in an electric wheelchair coming over.

The man was Sebastian.

He had arranged for a spy in the Smith family, and he received the news when Lillian went to find Steven.

He immediately sent Lord Hydra over, but it was still a little late.

By the time Lord Hydra arrived, Lillian had already run away by herself.

Fortunately, she was not injured. Otherwise, he would have destroyed Steven's entire family.

Despite Lillian's return, Sebastian harbored doubts about the Smith family's intentions. He suspected they wouldn't hesitate to blame her if she failed.

Driven by this concern, he arrived unannounced, only to witness Elijah raising a hand against her. Fury surged through him, prompting a harsh shout to stop the attack.

"Sebastian, you waste! What are you doing here?" Ronan was a little surprised.

Evelyn immediately became furious. "Who let you in? Get out of here!"

"I didn't want to come either, but you guys are bullying my woman. How can I just sit back and watch?" Sebastian said coldly.

"Sebastian, you're now a complete and utter waste. You still dare to be so arrogant? Believe it or not, I will kill you," Lucas said with a murderous look.

Belinda scoffed, "You think you're still the same powerful Sebastian? Now that you're in a wheelchair, killing you would be like killing an ant."

Lillian, fearing for Sebastian's safety, pleaded, "Why are you even here? Let me have someone take you back to the hospital."

"If we leave, we leave together. I can't leave you alone here to be bullied," Sebastian replied.

"They're my family. I'll be fine. Please, go back to the hospital. I'm begging you," Lillian pleaded earnestly.

Sebastian shook his head with a smirk that was filled with irony. From his observations these past days, the Smith family had never truly considered Lillian part of the family but merely a tool to be used.

Elijah stared at Sebastian and coldly stated, "Considering the past favor you've done for me, leave now and I'll forget this happened. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Sebastian shook his head without hesitation. "I won't leave, and I won't allow you to torment Lillian any further."

"Getting cocky, huh?" Lucas exploded in anger and shouted, "Someone, come!"

As his words fell, a group of bodyguards in suits rushed in.

"Don't harm him, please," Lillian begged, positioning herself in front of Sebastian.

Despite his past prowess, she knew his broken legs left him defenseless against these menacing bodyguards.

"I can spare him, but you must immediately go apologize to Mr. Harris. Whatever it takes, you must gain his forgiveness and secure our investment. Otherwise, I'll have no choice but to kill him and then tie you up and deliver you to Mr. Harris," Elijah stated darkly.

"Fine... I'll do it. Isn't that enough?" Lillian couldn't hold back her tears any longer.

Sebastian grabbed her hand and said, "Lillian, I won't let you go."

"Do you really think I won't kill you?" Elijah said coldly.

Sebastian scoffed, "Of course, I know you would. But all you want is money, right? Tell me, how much do you want?"

Evelyn sneered, "We know about your measly ten million dollars, but that was ours to begin with. Besides, we need one billion now. Do you, a worthless person, even comprehend how much a billion is? It could literally crush you."

"I thought it was a lot of money. A mere billion? That's all?" Sebastian said dismissively.

"Such a big talk from a useless man. You act as if one billion means nothing to you. Do you think you're some kind of tycoon?" Lyra scoffed.

"A billion? You wouldn't know a billion if it bit you. Even with a fully functioning body, you couldn't possibly earn that kind of money," Evelyn said disdainfully.

Lucas joined in the mockery, "Are you implying you have one billion dollars?"

"What if I do have one billion?" Sebastian countered.

"One billion dollars? If a useless wreck like you had that kind of money, I'd personally bow at your feet." Lucas said with disdain.
