NovelOnline"Let's go inside," Lillian said.
Just as she was about to enter the building, Sebastian caught her arm.
"Wait a moment. Are you sure you won't regret this?" Sebastian asked.
"If I'll regret it, I wouldn't have come," Lillian replied.
"In that case, wear this." Sebastian took out a blood-red pendant necklace and placed it around her neck.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe pendant was shaped like a teardrop magnified several times, hence its name, the Seraphic Tear Pendant necklace.
"What's this?" Lillian asked, feeling puzzled.
"It's my most precious possession. From now on, it will be the Wilder family's family heirloom," Sebastian explained with a smile.
Lillian didn't think much of it. To her, it was just an ordinary pendant necklace.
The two entered the city hall and emerged later with the marriage certificate.
Sitting in the car, Sebastian examined the marriage certificate and studied the photo they had taken.
He was beaming in the picture, but Lillian's smile seemed somewhat forced.
Lillian started the car and drove off.
"Where are we heading?" Sebastian asked.
"Home," Lillian replied flatly.
"I haven't bought a house yet. Shall we go buy one now? I have money," Sebastian suggested.
He had been living alone in his office before, but now that he was married, he couldn't let Lillian stay there with him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Keep your money for yourself. Although we're married now, I won't spend a cent of yours," Lillian said firmly. Shortly after, Lillian drove into a luxurious villa area and parked in front of one of the villas.
"Honey, is this your house?" Sebastian asked as he wandered around the villa.
Lillian nodded. "I've only stayed in this house a few times since buying it, but I'll be living here more often from now on." "Where's the bedroom?" Sebastian asked.
Lillian sat on the couch, feeling a headache coming on.
Although she and Sebastian had obtained their marriage certificate, she understood that her grandfather and parents wouldn't easily accept it. There would likely be many troubles ahead. Meanwhile, Sebastian went to inspect the two bedrooms on the first floor. After finding no signs of previous occupancy, he walked out and asked, "Honey, where's your room?" Lillian's guard instantly went up. "Why do you ask?" "Con, now that we're married, we'll be sleeping together. You won't have to suffer sleepless nights alone anymore. I'll hold you in my arms every night," Sebastian said with a charming smile. "You're overthinking it," Lillian said calmly. "I married you out of necessity, so we need to establish an agreement." "Is the first condition that I'm not allowed to touch you?" Sebastian guessed.
"Exactly," Lillian said. "It's a one-year agreement. You're not allowed to touch me, and if necessary, you'll have to cooperate within acting.
"But don't worry. Once the agreement expires, I'll compensate you with ten million dollars." Sebastian wore an expression of resignation. "I'm at an age where I have a lot of desires. I can endure for a day or two, but three or four days might be a stretch, let alone a year. What if I accidentally violate the agreement?" "You absolutely cannot violate the agreement. If you do, I won't let you off the hook, and you'll have to pay ten times the penalty," Lillian warned solemnly.
