Chapter 37 It’s You and No One Else
A late–night hangout lasted until 10 p.m.
Rebecca still needed to pick up Emma from her dance class. She checked the time and said, “Mr. Sebastian, we’ve got something else to do. We’ll be heading out.”
Sebastian stood up gracefully. That’s fine. It’s not good for girls to stay in bars too late. I’ll give you two a ride.”
“No, no need. Natasha has a car. Rebecca really didn’t want to trouble him, and that little accident earlier had been pretty awkward.
But then Natasha said. “My car broke down. It stalled out on the side of the road and got towed by the traffic cops.”
Rebecca was speechless..
There were ten thousand grass–mud horses stampeding through her heart. What kind of best friend was this? Gave her a headache.
Sebastian smiled. “Let’s go. I’m heading back to Clearville–it’s right on the way.”
With those words, he courteously gestured for the two ladies to go first.
Faced with such a gentle and gentlemanly demeanor, how could Rebecca refuse? With no other option, she got in the car
with them.
Fortunately, Emma’s training center was along the road to Clearville. She found an excuse to get out. “Thank you, Mr. Sebastian. See you another day.”
Sebastian’s eyes followed her flustered retreating figure. He couldn’t help but smile.
According to the rumors, she was decisive and sharp, ruthless and efficient. But after interacting with her three times, he found she was more like a little girl–pure, clean, fragile. Someone easy to like, someone who made people want to protect
her.
She was a good girl.
From the driver’s seat, Charles saw that his boss was still watching her through the rearview mirror and couldn’t help but marvel
All these years, the CEO had been buried in work and completely disinterested in women. Was he finally moved?
What a shame.. why did it have to be Duncantow Nathan’s fiancee…
That initial affection, in the end, would only be misplaced.
On a small road, Natasha couldn’t help but complain, “Rebecca, it’s so early–nightlife is just getting started. You should be chatting with a handsome man, sharing your feelings, getting swept up in the moment. Why were you in such a rush to leave?”
Smuck Rebecca raised her hand and flicked Natasha’s forehead, then pointed to the phone screen. Look what time it is. You forgot about my daughter? What kind of godmother are you?”
Oh! I forgott I’m sorry, I’m sorry! Good thing we’re still in time”
Rebecca rubbed her forehead. “You forget your goddaughter the moment you see a hot guy. With a godmother like you, Emma’s doomed And also–you bumped me on purpose earlier. What kind of ridiculous idea were you cooking up in that httle head of yours?”
Her tone was firm
Natasha didn’t expect to be caught and gave a sheepish laugh. “I was just thinking–since you don’t like Nathan, and

Natasha nodded. “Got it”

Finished
Worried that Rebecca’s absence would affect Marcus’s mood, Nathan deliberately didn’t go to work that day. The matter he had to discuss was a meeting with Sebastian–scheduled to take place at home.
Sebastian had wanted to say he wasn’t available and reschedule, but when he thought of “Jocelyn,” he inexplicably agreed.
When he arrived at the villa, it was Jocelyn who opened the door. Seeing Sebastian and Charles, she immediately greeted them with a warm smile.
“Mr. Sebastian, you’re here. Please come in and have a seat. I’ll go make some coffee.
She carried herself with poise and elegance, her smile timed perfectly, brimming with the grace of a wealthy heiress.
Sebastian frowned slightly, watching Jocelyn’s figure as she walked away. Why did it feel… a little different from before?
He didn’t say anything. He headed toward the garden and saw the usually aloof Nathan enjoying himself with a child. That child was beautifully carved, with clear black eyes that were quite adorable. They looked a lot like “Jocelyn’s lively eyes.
He couldn’t help feeling a little envious. “Nathan, only thirty and already living the family bliss life?”
At the sound of his voice, Nathan turned around and saw Sebastian. He curled his lips into a faint smile. “Just spending time with the kid. Marcus, say hi to Sebastian”
Marcus nodded, his black–and–white eyes looking up at Sebastian. “Hi, Sebastian. You’re so handsome. You look like you’d be more popular with girls than my daddy.”
The child’s voice was very pleasant.
Sebastian smiled. “Saying that in front of your dad–is that really okay?”
Marcus nodded with righteous confidence. “It’s just the truth. Sebastian, you’re like warm sunshine–girls want to get close to you. My daddy’s like a cold, distant moon–high up in the sky. Girls don’t usually like guys like him.”
Nathan was speechless.
This little brat finally speaks–and he’s become a chatterbox?
Thinking about who was responsible for that, he couldn’t help recalling the weak voice on the phone earlier. His eyes: narrowed slightly
Just what was going on with her?
