Vengeance With My White Knight by Maya Kensington

Chapter 128 After all, Chris had met Sebastian several times and still remembered his appearance.

If he were to realize at this point that Sebastian was the Lucano family's heir, Stephanie couldn't imagine what would happen.

She glanced at Sebastian, her eyes sparkling like stars. “Sebastian, are you going to meet Mr. Ashford?" Sebastian replied with a smile, "Do you wantto meet him?" Stephanie nodded. "He's a good man." To Stephanie, Fred was a man of integrity and principle.

She had always admired him, especially after hearing of his accomplishments in his youth.

And two years ago, when her engagement to Chris was suddenly announced, Fred had vehemently opposed it, chastising Grace and the Harts.

He was right to be angry-they hadn't even consulted Stephanie, the person directly involved.

Sebastian smiled warmly, reaching out to ruffle her hair. "You go to Macro first." Hearing that, Stephanie's heart gave a nervous flutter.

She already knew what Macro was going to do.

She hesitantly hooked her finger around Sebastian's.

He chuckled softly. "Afraid?" She shook her head. "No, not at all. You go first." Her words said otherwise, but she was clearly afraid.

For years, whenever she fell ill, she would only take medicine, refusing injections.

She was even more scared of needless than a kid would be.

Perhaps it stemmed from her childhood, when she had been sickly, prone to colds, especially in winter. Sebastian could remember that day, when he cback from school, Stephanie was sleeping soundly.

He wanted to hug her, only to find that she was running a fever, rushed to get the doctor to give her a shot.

Children who were sickly in their youth often grew up to be remarkably healthy.

If not for that kidnapping incident, her legs would never have ended up in their current state.

Sebastian's gaze softened. He clasped her small hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze. "Go ahead. I'll be there soon." "Okay," she replied.

But she really didn't want to take acupuncture.

She cast one last pleading look at Sebastian.

07:04 Tue, 11 Mar Chapter 128 He reached out, adjusted her nighties with care, and then left She obediently watched him leave, not moving until his figure disappeared from sight. Only then did the nurn wound her phone from the dressing room, and head off to find Macro, Macro was already preparing "Relax, seeing her, he said with a grin. "I've perfected my skill over the years. It won't hurt a bit Stephanie didn't believe a word of it.

"Where's Sebastian?" Macro asked.

He was a little surprised to see Stephanie calone.

Stephanie hated needles. It was unusual that Sebastian didn't cwith her.

Ever since they arrived in Long Harbor, Sebastian's attention had been completely fixed on her.

"He went to meet Fred," she replied.

Hearing this, Macro's movements froze.

"Fred? He cin person?" "Yeah." Macro considered the situation. It made sense; Sebastian had never bent over backward for anyone. It was always others who had to cater to him.

"What about Chris?" Macro couldn't help but ask.

"He's there, too," Stephanie replied matter-of-factly.

She had been soaking in the hot spring for so long, and Chris still hadn't found Sebastian. Fred must have finally gotten anxious.

Macro clicked his tongue. "So, Chris has met Sebastian before?" "Yeah, and he's been beaten up several times already." Hearing this, Macro's lip twitched.

'Beaten up several times? That must have been quite the story. Macro thought.

"This ought to be good," he said.

They'd already had such tic encounters. There was no way Chris wouldn't recognize Sebastian.

So, what would Chris's expression be when he saw Sebastian? Stephanie, however, remained uninterested. "Good or not, it's going to be agonizing." Macro nodded in agreement. "You've got a point." The Ashford Group had been in a frenzy lately, desperate because the Hart Group's mines were running dry.

Knowing that the heir of the Lucano family was here, they'd been trying every angle to meet him.

13 Chapter 128 And yet, despite all their efforts, they still hadn't seen him.

If Chris found out that the heir to the Lucano family, whom they had been chasing after, was Sebastian-the man who had beaten him multiple times-just imagining his expression was entertaining enough.

Macro glanced at Stephanie. "Aren't you going to watch the show? You like to watch, don't you?" "Nope," Stephanie replied flatly.

She'd seen enough of the Ashford and Hart family's jokes.

Besides, if she were with Sebastian, Chris might try to accuse them of.

He was like a mad dog. While she wasn't afraid of him, she didn't want Sebastian to hear his filthy insults.

Macro scoffed, "Tsk, no sense of adventure." Stephanie retorted, “What kind of attitude was that? I just don't want to go to watch the fun.” Just as they were about to say more, Mayra arrived.

Seeing Macro and Stephanie together, a trace of hatred flashed across her aggrieved eyes. "Macro, what's going on with you and her?" At the sight of Mayra, Macro tensed.

Although they have no relationship whatsoever, Mayra kept pestering him.

He really hoped she didn't provoke Sebastian, or he would be in deep trouble.

"How did you even find this place?" Macro asked, his voice tinged with disbelief.

After all, here was Sebastian's private medical room.

Mayra shot a venomous glare at Stephanie before turning back to Macro. "You rejectedfor her, didn't you?" she accused.

Stephanie was silent for a moment.

Macro snapped, 'Shut up. I have nothing to do with you, and neither does she!" "What..." In an instant, Mayra's face turned pale.

"Get out!" Macro patience had run out entirely.

He had no tolerance for people like her-those who were overly emotional.

To put it bluntly, when someone's world revolved solely around love and romance, it beca burden on others.

It was far wiser to redirect that passion toward loving oneself.

"What did you say? You're tellingto..." "Yes, I'm telling you to get lost." Macro had truly run out of patience.

He believed that falling in love after just one meeting was improbable. True love wasn't that simple.

Mayra bit her lip, her glare now fixed on Stephanie.

07:04 Tue, 11 Mar Chapter 128 Stephanie retorted, "Don't look at me. If your love is worthless, that's not my fault." Those words left Mayra pale with fury that she was speechless.

Then her phone buzzed insistently.

It was her father calling. She guessed it was to ask about the blind date.

Mayra shot a venomous glare at Stephanie before turning on her heel to answer the call.

"Dad," her voice was thick with grievance.

She was ready to unleash a torrent of complaints about Stephanie to her father.

But before she could begin, a low, furious voice erupted from the ather end of the dine. Mayra, get your ass back here right now!" "Dad, what?" she stammered, caught off guard.

"You fool, always stirring up trouble outside. Get back here now," her father snapped.

Mayra was at a loss, wondering what she had done wrong.

"And stay away from Stephanie," her father added sternly.

The older generation was acutely aware of the recent turmoil in high society, even if others remained oblivious.

The troubles plaguing the Hart family, the reasons behind Lilian's detention-these were all crystal clear to them.

They were terrified of their own family members getting entangled in the mess.

Hearing her father's words, Mayra thought she must have misheard. "What did you say?" 'Stay away from Stephanie? When did that woman meet my father? And why was he protecting her now?' Mayra's mind was racing.

"You have half an hour to get back, or you won't have allowance next m month, Nepfather declared, his tone leaving no room for argument. The moment her allowance was threatened, Mayra's composure shattered.

"Wait, Dad, what do you mean? I'm just..." "29 minutes left!" Mayra got anxious at once.

'What kind of bewitching charm did Stephanie possess to captivate so many men? Why was Dad Shielding her so fiercely? Did he have feelings for her?' At this thought, Mayra's unease deepened. "Dad, Mom has always worked hard for the family. You can't betray her," she blurted out.

"Are you crazy?" her father barked, his voice rising in frustration.

Mayra was speechless.

"You have 25 minutes left. If you don't cback, you'll lose your allowance for the next two months," he warned.

Hearing this, Mayra didn't dare waste another second. She broke into a run, heading straight for the Mount Spring gate.

07:04 Tue, Tue, 11 Mar Chapter 128 "You're counting too fast, L.

"20 minutes left!" Under the relentless pressure of her father, Mayra abandoned any thought of confronting Stephanie If she kept it up, the allowance for the next three months would vanish.

Meanwhile-Elliot and Sebastian arrived at a small building together.

When Chris caught sight of Sebastian clad in a bathrobe, his expression froze for a fleeting moment mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
