Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 142

Lillian couldn't care less what Sebastian was thinking.

Right now, all she cared about was that he was making her late for work.

She had a full schedule, planned down to the minute, every single day.

She had to finish her tasks before clocking out, as she had other arrangements for the evening.

Now, Sebastian had her locked in the car and was acting like he wanted to exercise his 'marital rights' right then and there. Lillian was not pleased.

"Sebastian, I assume you wouldn't want me to go tattling to your father and mother, would you? You still don't have complete control over the Blake family's power. Losing a little more of that influence because of me probably wouldn't be worth it, right?"

Sebastian's body, which had been pressing closer, visibly stiffened.

Clearly, Lillian's words were a potent enough threat.

"Lillian, you're my wife. You're the one who chased me for years, who clung to my side until I finally agreed to marry you.

This marriage is what you begged for.

What is this act you're putting on now?"

Lillian didn't deny it. She had pursued Sebastian relentlessly, determined to marry him.

She shot him a cold look. "I guess I was blind!"

Those five simple words left Sebastian choking with frustration.

But he still didn't move, still didn't unlock the doors.

Just then, someone knocked on the car window from outside. "Mr. Blake, fancy seeing you here."

Sebastian's face soured. This Nathan, was he some kind of plague? Why was he always popping up out of nowhere, like a ghost you can't shake, ruining his plans?

Lillian just stared at Sebastian. He wouldn't want to make a scene; it would be too messy.

Finally, Sebastian unlocked the doors. Without wasting a second, Lillian pushed the door open and got out.

Seeing her, Nathan frowned and asked in a low voice, "Was he giving you a hard time?"

Lillian glanced back at Sebastian's car. "He can't give me a hard time. I'm heading up to work."

She figured that when she didn't return to the office after getting in the car, Ethan must have called Nathan.

Nathan's office was nearby, so he had come over immediately.
