Sebastian stood at the door.
Hearing Stephanie say she was tired, a subtle smile flashed across his eyes.
He glanced at his watch and said, “It’s already nine o'clock.
“I'm really exhausted. | want to sleep a little longer.”
“I'm coming in.”
Wait, what? Why is he coming in?!
Stephanie panicked. “I'm getting up right now!”

The moment she heard Sebastian was about to enter, Stephanie was flustered. She hurriedly pulled up the collar
of her shirt, wrapping it tightly around her neck.
Sebastian reminded her, “Hurry up. Breakfast has been reheated several times already.”
“Got it.”
Inside the room, Stephanie felt like crying.
She rummaged through her wardrobe for a scarf but found that it was too small to cover the marks. In the end,
she just grabbed a thick muffler and wrapped it tightly around her neck.
When she finally went downstairs, she saw Sebastian sitting on the sofa and working on sbusiness matters
with a laptop on his lap.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing her footsteps, Sebastian turned around and saw the dark circles under her
eyes.
“You really didn’t sleep well?”
Stephanie responded with a hum.
With her heart racing all night, how could she possibly fall asleep?
Judging from Sebastian's expression, Stephanie felt as if he had already forgotten everything that had happened
after he got
drunk.
The thought made her feel even more frustrated.
‘It’s a good thing he hadn't gone all the way with me. If he had and then forgotten everything, how would | even
make him take responsibility?”
Sebastian noticed the muffler around her neck. “Are
you
cold?”
“No, not at all,” Stephanie blurted out instinctively.
The moment the words left her mouth, she regretted them.
Sure enough, Sebastian immediately questioned, “If you're not cold, why are you bundling up like that?”
The room was set to a constant temperature, so there was no need for extra layers.
Stephanie was at a loss for words.

Hearing these words, she pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer Sebastian Giovanni.
It's all because of you!’ she thought.
When the butler saw Stephanie, he instructed the servants to bring out the freshly warmed breakfast.
Ignoring Sebastian's question, Stephanie went straight to the dining room.
She took a sip of the oatmeal and looked over at him, who was still seated in the living room.
“Aren’t you heading out today?”
“Not until later.”
“Oh.”
No wonder he was still here.

Sebastian closed his laptop and walked toward the dining room. He was tall-at least 1.9 meters-and those long,
straight legs alone were enough to make one’s heart race.
Stephanie knew just how much women adored him over the years.
However, his naturally cold aura kept most people at bay.
Of course, there were those who had tried drugging him before, but whatever consequences they faced
afterward remained a mystery as they never appeared again.
Sebastian sat across from her, his gaze deep as he studied her.
Stephanie's heart skipped a beat. “Why are you looking atlike that?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm-Sebastian asked, “Why are your lips swollen?”
Stephanie’s mind went blank, and she felt the blood rush through her body at an alarming speed.
‘So, he really had forgotten everything?! How dare he have the nerve to ask why her lips were swollen?’
Stephanie clutched her head in frustration. “Do you remember how you got back last night?”
“Huh?”
Stephanie felt silent as she realized that he had indeed lost his memories from last night.
The thought made her want to pull her hair out.
Before she could say anything else, Sebastian suddenly reached over and pulled off her muffler.
The moment the cool air hit her exposed neck, Stephanie's heart stopped for a split second.
She instinctively reached out and tried to snatch the muffler back, but she accidentally fell right into Sebastian's
arms in her haste.
At that moment, tstood still.
