Remorse After Breaking Up novel Chapter 50

Sebastian flicked his finger lightly, and with a crash, the wine bottle shattered as if it had been struck by a bullet.

Then, he slapped Lyra across the face.

Still feeling unsatisfied, he slapped her again and again.

Lyra was bewildered by the blows. Dizzy and seeing stars, she fell to the ground.

Once considered a beauty, her face was now swollen and bruised. Blood was trickling from her mouth, and several of her teeth were knocked out.

"Get out of here now! If you don't, I'll kill you!" Sebastian's voice was icy and emotionless.

He was beyond furious. If he hadn't arrived in time, there would have been unimaginable consequences.

"Does your face still hurt?"

Sebastian looked at Lillian's swollen face with genuine concern.

"It's okay. It'll get better in a while. Thank you for saving me," Lillian said gratefully. This was the second time Sebastian had saved her.

Of course, that didn't count the time at the Smith family's place before.

"You're my woman, and it's my duty to save you. Instead, I failed to protect you. I'm sorry." Sebastian was full of apologies.

"You have nothing to apologize for. Remember, we're just pretending to be married," Lillian reminded him.

Sebastian held her shoulders and said, "I've already told you that there's no agreement between us. You're my wife, and I'll earn money to support you."

"I have hands and feet. I don't need you to support me, and I don't want to be a trophy wife. I'll get a job in a couple of days, but for now, we need to move," Lillian said.

"There's no need to move at all. I don't think it'll be long before those people regret it and beg you to come back to work at the company," Sebastian said meaningfully.

"How is that possible? I'm not that important to the company. It's not like the company can't function without me." Lillian shook her head with a bitter smile.

"I'm sure they'll invite you back before dark today. We'll make a bet if you don't believe me," Sebastian said with a smirk.
