Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 183

Chapter 183 A Man’s Concern

Sebastian still had numerous pressing matters to attend to in Kingston, so he planned to remain there for the foreseeable future.

Lillian understood this well, yet a pang of guilt tugged at her heart. She was fully aware of the immense burden Sebastian bore as the head of such a vast empire, with countless responsibilities weighing him down. Despite all that, he had willingly set aside much of his time and energy to stay in Solara, making sure she was cared for. How could she not be deeply moved by such devotion?

“Don’t worry, Mr. Whitmore. I’ll make sure to take good care of myself,” she reassured him gently.

Seated at his desk, Sebastian’s gaze lingered on the photo of Lillian displayed on his computer screen. A tender smile curved his lips as he murmured softly, “Mm. Remember to think of me. No matter how busy you get, don’t forget to eat on time.”

At that moment, Lillian felt a warmth spreading inside her chest. Somehow, Mr. Whitmore was beginning to feel less like just a lover and more like a father figure—someone who cared for her in a protective, almost paternal way. She couldn’t help but smile to herself. “Alright, I promise. Oh, and the bottle of medicine I gave you last time had two pills. One was for your grandfather, and the other is for you. Don’t forget to take it.”

After ending the call, Sebastian reached into his pocket and pulled out the small porcelain vial. Sure enough, there was still one blue pill remaining inside. Without hesitation, he popped it into his mouth.

As the medicine began to take effect, Sebastian marveled once again at the miraculous little girl who had created it. He could easily imagine the chaos and excitement that would erupt if such a drug were ever made public.

Just then, Foster entered the office and noticed his boss absentmindedly stroking the thumb ring on his finger, his face softening with affection. There was no need to guess what—or rather who—was on his mind. Ever since that ring had appeared on Sebastian’s hand two years ago, touching it had become an unconscious, habitual gesture.

Foster placed a file on the desk and said, “This is an urgent document from Murica that requires your personal attention.”

Snapping back to reality, Sebastian quickly composed himself and took the file. “Suppress any news about Lillian. From now on, inform the media that any story involving her must have my approval before publication. If they ignore this, they’ll have to face the consequences.”

Given Skyreach Group’s current status, Sebastian felt it was unwise for Lillian to be in the spotlight too much. More than that, he didn’t want too many people to admire her beauty. If it were up to him, he would have hidden her away completely. Unfortunately, that wasn’t an option.

“Yes, sir. I’ll take care of it immediately,” Foster replied respectfully before leaving the room.

By the time Lillian finished preparing for the launch of the new medicine and the establishment of Skyreach Group’s jewelry division, it was already late February. The SAT exams were just four months away, and time seemed to have slipped by faster than she had realized. Thinking about the people in Kingston, a flicker of excitement stirred within her. She hoped they wouldn’t be too surprised when they saw her again.

Karina entered the office and handed Lillian an elegant invitation. “An invitation from the Hawk family in Kingston.”

Lillian took it, admiring the simple yet sophisticated black-and-gold design that exuded refined taste.
