Remorse After Breaking Up novel Chapter 2

As Sebastian undressed Lillian, she shut her eyes in despair. She was in pain and couldn't fight back at all.

But the worst that she'd expected did not come to pass. Instead, Sebastian took out a needle and pressed it into one of Lillian's meridians. He then repeated the process with seven more needles all over her body.

Sebastian then pressed his hand on Lillian's chest. The needles began vibrating in her skin, releasing a faint glow in the air.

This went on for about five minutes. Sebastian looked exhausted by the time it was over.

"Alright. Put your clothes back on," Sebastian said as he pulled out all the needles.

Lillian had been anticipating death. Her eyes jolted open upon hearing Sebastian's words. Her chest wasn't hurting anymore nor was it the least bit uncomfortable.

"Did you save me?" Lillian asked in disbelief.

"Isn't that obvious? Who else is there in this room besides you and me?" Sebastian rolled his eyes.

Lillian was stunned. She knew just how severe her heart condition was.

Even Ravenview City's best doctor had only managed to extend her life. The doctor had warned that Lillian might very well die the next time her heart condition flared up again.

Yet, Sebastian had cured her heart with just several needles in a matter of minutes. What kind of otherworldly medical skill did he possess?

Lillian quickly got dressed and said to Sebastian, "Don't think I'll be grateful to you just because you saved my life."

"Oh, I'm not holding my hopes out for that. I'm just glad you won't hold a grudge against me."

Lillian grew silent. How could she not hold a grudge against Sebastian when he'd been the one who took her virginity?

But she did come to him first. Plus, Sebastian had just saved her from death's door. What right did she have to still hold a grudge?

"You can take the money as my medical fees, then. We're even from now on," Lillian said and prepared to leave.

"Stand right there!" Sebastian called out. "Isn't this money supposed to be for my services in bed? When did it become your medical fees?"

Lillian was incredibly embarrassed. She'd only given Sebastian the ten thousand dollars to console herself and to warn him against seeking her out again.

"I'll transfer the rest to you, then. I don't have any more cash right now."

"I just want cash. Who knows if you'll try and scam me later?"

"Then I'll go withdraw some right now and give it to you," Lillian said.

"No way. Where will I go to find you if you run off after leaving?" Sebastian snorted.

"Then why don't you just come with me to the bank?" Lillian exclaimed angrily.

"That won't do, either. What if you deny this ever happened? We don't have anything in black and white yet. I wouldn't be able to defend myself, especially if you sabotage me after."

"What do you propose, then?" Lillian was frustrated now.

Sebastian gave it some thought before saying, "Why don't you have someone bring the money over?"

"No!" It was Lillian's turn to refuse now. She couldn't let a single soul know she'd spent the night at a hotel with a man.

"Then that leaves us the final option." Sebastian smiled peculiarly as he gazed at Lillian.

"What is it?"

"Since I serviced you last night, it's your turn to service me. I'll let you off once I'm satisfied." Sebastian grinned.

"You…" Lillian trembled in anger as she pointed a finger at Sebastian.

In the end, she let her hand fall and closed her eyes, as if giving him permission to do as he pleased.

Sebastian held back the urge to take Lillian right then and there. "Hey, lady. You should be the one servicing me, not the other way around."

Lillian grew even angrier. She exclaimed, "Just do it if you want to!"

Lillian was from the Smith family, the wealthiest family in Ravenview City. It was already difficult for her knowing she'd lost her virginity. No way was she going to voluntarily service Sebastian now.

"I've lost my interest now with how pissy you are. Whatever. I'm going to find my fiancée," Sebastian said lazily after yawning.

"How does a bastard like you have a fiancée? What woman in their right mind would want to marry you?" Lillian scoffed.

"Oh? My fiancée is Maria Lisbon from the Lisbon family," Sebastian said gleefully.

Lillian clicked her tongue. "How would someone like her set her sights on you? Her family is pretty influential here in Ravenview too. Can't you lie any better?"

Lillian naturally didn't believe Sebastian at all. Though the Lisbon family was lesser than the Smiths here in Ravenview City, they were still considered upper-class.
