Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81 

“Sebastian, can you please not talk nonsense?” Lillian was visibly upset 

She quickly turned to Chris and said, “Mr. Ademos, please excuse Sebastian. He can be a bit… outspoken at times. There’s no need to engage with him. I apologize on his behalf.” Chris looked at Lilian and said, “Ms. Lilian, while I respect your personality, can’t help but feel that you deserve a better partner. A woman of your caliber shouldn’t settle for someone who seems like trash.” 

“He is not trash,” Lillian said, holding back her anger. “There’s a reason for his condition, and it has everything to do with me. I would appreciate it if you refrained from making 

such remarks.” 

Trash, trash, 

1. trash!” Belinda called out three etimes in a row and snorted coldly. “What are you going to do about it, huh?” 

“Trash, that’s all he is anyway. Why are you offended by the truth?” Evelyn scoffed, rolling her eyes. 

Meanwhile, Ronan and Jamie joined the chorus of mockery only Lucas remained silent, as he was busy making phone calls. 

He was perplexed by Lillian’s unexpected return, especially when he saw that she was accompanied by Sebastian. That prompted him to attempt to reach out to Taylor and Steven for clarity but to no avail, as his calls went unanswered. 

Lillian was so angry that she was shaking, but she felt helpless 

Lyra suddenly looked at jah and said, “Grandpa, Ithink Lillian is no longer suitable to manage the company. It would be better to let me take over.” 

“Uh..” Elijah hesitated. 

While he acknowledged Lyra’s social skills, her qualifications for running the company left him uncertain. 

Lyra said, displeased, “Grandpa, I know you have some doubts about my abilities. But after two years abroad at Arloria’s Agrarian University, which is a far more prestigious Institution than any domestic option, I assure you that my capabilities are on par with my cousin’s, especially with my boyfriend’s expertise on my side. 

Jamie chimed in swiftly, “Dad, why don’t you give Lyra a chance? Think of the bigger picture. With Lyra as president and with Mr. Adamos” backing, we could secure a long–term partnership with Phoenix Corporation. That’s a golden pathway to restoring, and even exceeding, the Smith family’s former glory!” 

Elijah found this to be reasonable, so he looked at Lillian and said, “Lillian, considering your serious mistake recently, I’ll be revoking your position as president and appointing Lyra to take over instead.” 

Lillian gave a bitter smile and said nothing. 

won’t just miss out on cooperating with 

But Sebastian couldn’t just stand by and watch her being bullied. In a cold voice, he said, “If you revoke Lillian’s position, I bet you won Phoenix Corporation; you won’t even get the qualification to bid!” 

y for me to obtain.” 

Chris scoffed. “Brat, you truly think very highly of yourself. It’s just a bidding qualification; that’s easy t Sebastian revealed a playful smile. “Then, let’s make a bet. Tomorrow, we’ll go to Phoenix Corporation together and see whether you can get the bidding qualification.” 

Everyone in the Smith family, except Lan, erupted into laughter. 

“This trash is truly delusional Mr. Adamos is the son of the vice president of Phoenix Corporation. Getting a bidding qualification will require just a word from him. He actually dares to make such a bet; he must be seeking humiliation.” 

“Sebastian, stop talking nonsense.” Ullan hurriedly tried to stop Sebastian. She then turned to Chris and said, “He’s just spouting nonsense. I accept the demotion.” 

“No way. I’ll be taking his words seriously.” Chris glared at Sebastian. He then coldly smirked and said, “Brat, if you lose, you’ll have to kneel on the ground and lick my shoes clean. And, you’ll also have to divorce Ms. Lillian.”
