Chapter 43 Nathan’s Jealous
Her clear, firm words echoed in the air, setting off a huge commotion.
“My God, what kind of person does that?”
“Even if she’s adopted, there’s no need to be this heartless,”
“Call the cops! That’s a crime!”
As soon as Scarlett heard someone say “call the cops, she panicked. She pointed at Rebecca: “You–how could you do this to
Rebecca’s expression was calm and cold, completely unmoved. “Because anyone who could make me act like this… isn’t even human.”
“Cough! Cough!” Scarlett choked on her own spit, her face flushing red.
By then, someone in the crowd had already pulled out their phone to call the police. She couldn’t stay a moment longer!
Scarlett gave Rebecca a vicious glare, gritting her teeth. “Just you wait. I won’t let you off!”
Then, with a sudden shove, she pushed Rebecca hard and took off running.
Caught off guard, Rebecca’s body went tumbling backward.
In a dizzying moment, a strong arm wrapped around her waist…
She was caught in midair. Through her scattered vision, she looked up–and saw the refined, gentlemanly Sebastian.
It was him. Again, he was the one who saved her!
The women in the crowd–young and old alike–let out a wave of excited gasps.
Hero saving beauty… and what a handsome hero!
Sebastian, worried that the crowd would cause a scene and it might end up in the news, helped Rebecca up, bent down to scoop up Marcus, then took Rebecca by the hand and led her deeper luside.
Charles quickly rushed ahead to make arrangements.
The large dolphin room was soon cleared out–completely empty.
From the very first second the incident started. Sebastian had been paying attention. He placed Marcus in the front row and gently reassured him, “It’s okay now. Don’t be scared”
Then he looked to Rebecca and asked, “Are you alright?”
Rebecca shook her head Tim fine Just a little hurt emotionally. After all, they’d spent twenty–two years together–and it still
came to this
She pushed down her feelings. Thank you”
Sebastian smiled warmly. I didn’t do anything. Marcus, Sebastian’s going to treat you to a dolphin show”
Hearing that, Marcus felt a little better. He nodded slightly.
But then he went quiet again.
Rebecca, heart aching, sat beside him and lifted him onto her lap, speaking gently. “That person just now was a terrible. human being Don’t let it bother you Let’s watch the dolphin show together. I heard dolphins are really friendly–they save

“Okay” Marcus nodded. The light returned to his eyes, and he started to get excited
Relieved. Rebecca spoke to the dolphin trainer, then focused all her attention on watching the show with Marcus
The dolphins leapt out of the water, bounced balls, swam through hoops, flicked their tails–trick after trick, incredibly cute Then a human dummy was thrown into the water–so realistic it looked like a real drowning person.
A dolphin suddenly surfaced from below lifted the dummy up, dragged it through the water, and finally pushed it onto the shore, repeating the process several times.
Marcus was stunned. “Dolphins do save people! Ms. Rebecca, are dolphins magical?*
Rebecca smiled and explained softly. “Not really. Dolphins love to play. It’s part of their instinct. So when they see a person drowning, they think it’s something floating on the water and, by instinct, push them up and toward the shore–that’s how people end up getting saved”
So that’s how it worked.
Marcus understood. The fear and sadness he’d felt earlier completely vanished.
Sebastian sat beside them, watching Rebecca speak sofily and tenderly to the child, his gaze filled with warmth.
She had just been humiliated by her adoptive mother–a moment when she needed comforting the most–and yet she turned around and focused on soothing a child. He couldn’t help but admire her.
Seeing that they were still chatting about dolphins, he stood and went out to give Charles instructions. Teach that adoptive mother a lesson.”
Yes. Mr. Sebastian
After the dolphin show, when Rebecca and Marcus exited the exhibit hall, they were met by two adorable little cupcakes- and were both surprised.
“Wow! Cupcakes”
“You went and got cake?”
Sebastian spoke gently. I heard sweets heal the heart and lift the mood. I thought they’d be perfect for you two
Thank you. Sebastian Marcus happily accepted one.
Rebecca felt moved too. He had said “you two,” not just Marcus–which meant he’d noticed the subtle shift in her mood. He really was a considerate man. Thank you. Mr. Sebastian. Did we delay your plans! If you have other things to do, go ahead”
Sebastian smiled. “Not at all. I was already out inspecting the market–seeing how the public thinks. If you don’t mind, you can help me with feedback”
Rebecca held up the cupcake. “So this is a bribe for market research!”
“No I truly want you both to feel better”
Haha just teasing. Let’s go Rebecca beamed, her eyes curving into half moons, teeth white and bright.
Sebastian smiled too, thinking–her simile was the most beautiful he’d ever seen.
For the rest of the day the three of them played at the slyvanville Amusement Park–from the big rides to the small ones, on water and under water–they tried everything. It wasn’t until nightfall that they headed home
