Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 598

**Chapter 598: Mr. Whitmore’s Confession**

Beneath the soft cocoon of their blanket, a symphony of giggles erupted, a delightful sound that filled the room with warmth. Lillian, unable to contain her mirth, tossed the blanket aside, her laughter ringing out like a sweet, melodious chime. “Sebastian,” she teased, her eyes sparkling with mischief, “is there any possibility you could be more childish?”

For a fleeting moment, Sebastian’s expression turned serious, his gaze momentarily clouded as he absorbed the sight of her radiant smile. It was as if her joy illuminated the very corners of the room. In a swift, playful motion, he flipped her over, pinning her gently beneath him, their eyes locking in a gaze that spoke volumes, conveying emotions that words could scarcely capture. “Lillian,” he uttered, his tone dropping to a low, earnest whisper, “I want every single second of your time to be mine. I want you by my side at all times. That way, your eyes will always be on me, and I won’t have to wonder where your heart lies.”

Lillian’s hands instinctively pressed against his chest, a grounding gesture as she met his intense gaze. “But… I still have so many things left unfinished, so much to accomplish,” she replied, a hint of uncertainty creeping into her voice.

“It doesn’t matter,” he insisted, his voice deepening into a magnetic whisper that sent delightful shivers racing down her spine. “I’ll wait—wait until all your tasks are complete, wait until there’s only room for me in your heart.”

With a soft, tender smile, Lillian wrapped her arms around his neck, feeling the warmth radiating from his body envelop her like a comforting embrace. “Mr. Whitmore, thank you. Thank you for always being so incredibly patient with me,” she said, her voice filled with genuine gratitude.

Sebastian leaned in closer, brushing a gentle kiss against the corner of her lips, his breath warm and inviting against her skin. “Don’t ever thank me for this,” he murmured, his eyes locked onto hers with an intensity that made her heart race. “Everything I do for you comes from a place of desire. If you truly want to repay me, then hurry up and grow up—and marry me.”

Lillian nodded, a serious expression settling on her features. “I promise, I won’t keep you waiting for too long,” she vowed, her heart swelling with a mix of hope and determination.

Golden sunlight poured through the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, wrapping around them in a warm embrace, enhancing the intimacy of their moment together.

However, the atmosphere shifted dramatically as Foster entered the room, accompanied by a group of visitors. “Mr. Whitmore, the television crew has arrived,” he announced, his tone professional yet tinged with urgency.

Sebastian cast a quick glance over his shoulder at the gathering behind Foster before turning his attention back to Lillian. “Please handle them for now. I need to have lunch with my little one first.” With a firm yet gentle grip on Lillian’s hand, he led her toward the dining room, his presence exuding both protectiveness and authority.

Confusion flickered across Lillian’s face as she looked up at him, her brow knitting together. “You’re giving an interview?” she asked, curiosity lacing her voice.

Sebastian nodded, his gaze unwavering as it met hers with a fierce determination. “Since the truth is already out in the open, why not let the whole world know that you’re mine?”

After they finished their meal, Lillian settled onto the plush sofa in the lounge, files resting in her hands, her mind still swirling with thoughts of their conversation. Not far from her, Sebastian occupied a sunlit corner, engaging with the host’s questions. This was a rare opportunity; amidst the throngs of media eager for a glimpse of the elusive leader of Empire Group, this particular interviewer had managed to secure a coveted spot.

The initial questions revolved around business matters, and Sebastian answered them with a calm confidence, his words concise and impactful, each statement reflecting his expertise.

Then the conversation took a more personal turn. The host, with a knowing smile, leaned forward, clearly eager to delve into the heart of the matter. “Now, let’s discuss what the public is most curious about. Mr. Whitmore, when did you and your fiancée first meet? Was it love at first sight, or did it develop over time?”
