Chapter 214 Pursuing Her
After a pause, Lloyd added, “It’s that director from today’s trending topics, Sebastian.”
Gavyn was disturbed, his eyebrows slightly furrowed as he opened his sharp eyes.
“Not seen.”
This kind of person doesn’t even deserve to meet him!
Lloyd’s voice was hesitant, “Mr. Delacruz, he didn’t come alone. His wife is here too, crying pitifully. It’s
not a good look. What do you want me to do? Should I drive them away or…?”
Gavyn paused for a moment, then reached up and rubbed his forehead.
“Bring them in.”
Lloyd hurriedly responded with a nod.
In no time, Lloyd led the two people to the study. “Mr. Delacruz, I’ve brought them here.”
Upon seeing Gavyn, Sebastian immediately bowed and greeted him with a flattering smile, “Mr.
Delacruz, Mr. Delacruz, how are you?”
However, his bruised and swollen face, with the cheekbones bulging high, made his eyes appear as if
they were mere slits, giving him a somewhat comical appearance.
Following closely behind him was a middle-aged woman with a broad face and full forehead. She had
her hair in a bun and wore a pair of large gemstone earrings on her cheeks. Her appearance and aura
exuded both fierceness and wealth, making it clear that she was a well-off lady.
Although she appeared somewhat distant, upon meeting Gavyn, she was still polite and respectfully
called out, “Mr. Delacruz.”
Lloyd watched Freya’s demeanor and thought to himself that the upbringing of someone from a wealthy
family was indeed better than that of a seasoned hustler from the lower class.
Even when asking for help, one should not wear their eagerness on their face. Instead, they should
strike a balance, being neither too direct nor too obsequious.
Legend has it that Sebastian, back in the day, was a university student who had just graduated. In his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfield, he was considered a newcomer with no connections, struggling to find his footing and facing
setbacks everywhere he went.
If it weren’t for the fortunate encounter with Freya Coop, who came from a wealthy and prestigious
family, Sebastian wouldn’t have been able to raise the initial funds for his first movie, let alone invite a
big-name star to take the lead role.
Unfortunately, most men in the world tend to be blinded by beauty, forgetting their principles. Once they
rise to great heights, they often look down on the ordinary people beneath them.
Once he gained power, he put his original wife and family property behind him. In the end, it was still
his first wife who had to accompany him in apologizing and making amends.
His character is just terrible, such a disgrace to men!
Sebastian was nothing in front of Gavyn, but his wife came from a good background, so Gavyn would
still give them some consideration out of respect.
He lifted his chin slightly and said calmly, “Sit.”
Freya was still being modest, “How could I accept this? We came here today to apologize…”
Before the words had even finished, Sebastian, without any sense of awareness, had already sat down
with a grin on his face. Freya slapped him on the back and, twisting his ear, yanked him back “Get up!”
“Ouch, it hurts. Darling, please let go.”
Sebastian winced in pain, repeatedly apologizing, while Freya furrowed her brows and gave him a
meaningful glance.
That means, “Well, hurry up and say it!”
Sebastian squeezed a few tears from the corners of his eyes, wiping them with his sleeve, and began
to cry out in deep pain and regret, “Mr. Delacruz, I’ve truly learned my lesson now, and I won’t dare to
speak carelessly again. My company is gone now, and all the family assets have been used to pay off
debts. Look at how my wife has beaten me… It’s really not a life fit for a human!”
Lloyd watched as the person beside him had a bruised and swollen face, crying with a mixture of sobs
and tears. He found it amusing and wanted to laugh, but he held back with great effort.
Gavyn slowly twirled the pen in his hand, his expression cold and detached, “You deserve all of this.”
Unable to gain sympathy, Sebastian’s plan failed, but he quickly came up with another one.
“Mr. Delacruz, I didn’t realize who I was dealing with and offended Ms. Koch. Please, let bygones be
bygones. I know I was wrong.”
Sebastian rubbed his hands together, adjusting his emotions, and approached Gavyn with an
apologetic smile. “Ms. Koch, I know, she’s indeed as beautiful as a fairy. You have excellent taste; only
someone like her is worthy of you. We’re on the same page in this regard. So, could you please let me
off the hook this time?”
Same kind of people?
Lloyd couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth as he listened from the side. His Intuition told him
that this foolish director must have misunderstood something.
Gavyn frowned slightly as he listened, “What did you say?”
“Oh dear, Mr. Delacruz, I understand completely. It’s hard for a man to resist a beautiful woman, isn’t it?
Which man doesn’t appreciate beauty?”
Sebastian cleared his throat, as if about to discuss a topic only men would understand. He lowered. his
voice and said mysteriously, “No matter how good things are at home, they eventually lose their charm,
right? What’s outside is always fresher and more enticing, isn’t it?
My relationship with that young model was just a brief fling, just like you and Ms. Koch. We’re close
friends of the opposite sex, a perfect match, indeed!”
Not many people had seen Gavyn’s so-called ex-wife, so Sebastian naturally assumed that Gavyn
found his original partner bland and tasteless. That’s why he put her aside and pursued the stunning
and gorgeous daughter of the Koch family.
From this point on, they had a lot in common to talk about!
He believed that Gavyn would surely be able to understand him.
Aren’t all men like that, having those thoughts in their minds?
However, what he didn’t notice was that Gavyn’s face suddenly darkened. Freya, on the other hand,
caught this subtle detail and her eyebrows twitched slightly.
Upon seeing the situation, Lloyd knew it was over.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
This is the expression Gavyn shows when he’s extremely annoyed, and every word Sebastian says
seems to be stepping on a landmine.
To be fair, Gavyn is definitely not like those idle, irresponsible playboys in New York.
At a young age, he was able to support a company, and his attitude towards marriage was also
meticulous and serious.
At first, there was a misunderstanding with Aylin, which led to a poor attitude towards her. As for Laila,
she was deceived by that woman. Apart from these incidents, he never crossed any boundaries at any
banquet or event.
Lloyd is his assistant and has accompanied him on many assignments.
Many bosses are known to mingle with models and minor actors while working outside the office, but
Gavyn has always maintained his integrity and never engaged in such behavior.
I’m definitely not the same kind of person as this sleazy Sebastian!
Gavyn’s face had turned extremely dark, while Freya desperately tried to signal Sebastian with her
eyes. Unfortunately, he was completely oblivious and continued to be smug, thinking that his words had
moved Gavyn.
“Speaking of which, your mother, or Mrs. Haleigh Delacruz, is quite close with my mother,” Sebastian
said cheerfully. “They often get together to play poker and have a great relationship. Please, Mr.
Delacruz, pass along my regards to Mrs. Haleigh Delacruz when you see her.”
Gavyn’s brow furrowed even more tightly.
What kind of people does his mother know outside?
It’s no wonder they can have fun together with this kind of crowd, always causing mischief and stirring
up trouble at home every day. They’ve all been led astray by these people.
Just as Sebastian was about to say something more, suddenly, Gavyn threw a sharp glance his a cold
glint flashing in his eyes, startling him!
“I’m not the same kind of person as you.”
Gavyn spoke coldly, looking straight at him, “You’re not the only one who plays cards with my mother,
and most of you aren’t exactly good people.”
