Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 21

Sebastian forcefully shrugged off Ronan's hand. He said icily, "While she may be your daughter, she's also my wife now.

"I might not have had a say before, but from the instant we got married, she's under my care and protection. Anyone who dares to lay a hand on her will answer to me."

A charming smile graced Sebastian's lips. "If you acknowledge me as your son-in-law, I'll naturally respect you as my father-in-law. But if you choose not to, then I see no reason to indulge you."

"You… you…" Ronan stuttered, at a loss for words as he pointed a trembling finger at Sebastian.

Sebastian's sharp gaze landed on his face, and he coldly said, "I detest being pointed at. If you wish to keep your finger, I'll happily help you remove it."

Startled, Ronan swiftly retracted his hand. He was well aware of Sebastian's boldness and strength.

"You've picked yourself quite the man. I'm tempted to give him a good smack myself!" Ronan's tone dripped with anger as he directed his gaze toward Lillian.

Lillian glanced at Sebastian and said, "He's my father. Could you please control your temper?"

"Now that my wife has spoken, I'll try to control my temper," Sebastian retorted with a touch of sarcasm.

While he promised to try, his implication was clear: if they pushed him too far, he wouldn't care whether they were in-laws or anyone else.

"Let's go!" Quinton stormed off in anger.

"Since they already have a child, why linger here?" Lynette, equally indignant, pulled Steven away.

Steven glared at Sebastian, his eyes ablaze with fury. "Just you wait. I won't let you off!"

Sebastian's expression was full of disdain. While the Harris family was one of the four major families in Ravenview City, they held little significance in his eyes.

Elijah looked at Sebastian and said, "Sebastian, I'm grateful for your help, but I must admit, this turn of events has left me quite disappointed.

"Nevertheless, dwelling on it further won't change anything. Take care of yourselves from here on out."

With that, Elijah headed upstairs.

"Look what you've done to your grandfather," Evelyn said with frustration, her hand poised to deliver a slap on Lillian's face.

But when she saw the cold smirk on Sebastian's lips, she slowly lowered her hand.
