Remorse After Breaking Up novel Chapter 51

Lillian rolled her eyes. "When will you stop boasting? Although you're good at fighting, you're far from the Supreme One. Besides, the Supreme One not only excels in combat but also founded Phoenix Corporation. You're just a small security guard in Phoenix Corporation.

"I know. Did you steal this?" Lillian's face turned pale.

"Sebastian, you have some nerve for stealing from the Supreme One. Do you want to get yourself killed?"

Lillian shoved the Seraphic Tear Pendant necklace into Sebastian's hand. "You'd better find a way to return it, or else no one can save you if you're caught!"

"What are you talking about? How could I steal anything?" Sebastian was speechless.

"In that case, how do you explain this? Are you going to tell me that the Supreme One gave it to you?"

Lillian felt ridiculous even as she said it. Andrew had said that the Seraphic Tear Pendant necklace was the Supreme Token, and the Supreme One always kept it with him.

Even if he were to give it away, it would be to someone very close to him. How could he possibly give it to a mere security guard?

"To tell you the truth, this Seraphic Tear Pendant necklace is just a fake, a replica," Sebastian confessed.

"So it's a replica. I knew it was impossible to steal something from the Supreme One. After all, you can hardly even see that old man, being just a security guard," Lillian said.

Sebastian was speechless. He couldn't believe he was being called an "old man" at such a young age. Who spread such rumors?

"This isn't good."

Lillian was relieved for a moment, but then she remembered something Andrew had said. "Andrew thinks I'm Supreme One's woman, and he chopped off his hand because of it. If he finds out I'm an impostor, I'm done for."

"He won't. He wouldn't dare say anything. Bullying the Supreme One's woman is a capital offense. Even if he chopped off his hand, it wouldn't matter. So, don't worry. As long as the Supreme One doesn't say anything, he'll never know.

"Secrets won't stay hidden forever. Eventually, this will all come to light." Lillian looked worried.

"As long as the Supreme One doesn't speak up, Andrew will never find out. Besides, the Supreme One wouldn't bother with such trivial matters. You don't have to worry. Just keep wearing this replica. If you stop wearing it, it might raise suspicions with Andrew," Sebastian reassured her.

"You're right. I'll take it one step at a time." Lillian thought through it. It was a blessing in disguise.

About half an hour later, the doorbell rang.

Lillian went to open the door and found her father standing there.

"Dad, what are you doing here?" Lillian was surprised.

Ronan looked a bit awkward. "Lillian, your grandfather has calmed down. I'm here to take you home."

Lillian turned around to look at Sebastian in surprise. He had guessed it right.

But she was happy nonetheless. Just as she was about to agree to Ronan's request, Sebastian stopped her. He looked at Ronan and said, "When you kicked Lillian out, you showed no mercy. But now, with just a word, you want her back. Do you think it's that easy?"

"I'm talking to my daughter. It's none of your business!" Ronan snapped.
