“A friend.”
Lillian subconsciously answered.
“A friend?” Sebastian’s face became gloomier, “I say he is the adulterer!”
“Lillian, I do have underestimated you. One moment you accused me and my mother with pretended grievance. The next moment you accepted the flowers of other man and got on his car. Did you have a sex on the car or have a sex outdoor?”
In spite of a good temper, Lillian can’t help but be angry, “Sebastian, don’t pull that shit on me!”
“As dirty as you, I think you deserve it” Sebastian had completely lost his mind, “Lillian, you will have forgotten who you are if I don’t give you a lesson today!”
He grabbed her and went out of the door, “Follow me!”
“Sebastian, are you insane? Where are you taking me?” Lillian never saw Sebastian like that.
She didn’t understand why Sebastian was so angry.
But she was keenly aware that something terrible will happen to her.
She struggled to get rid of Sebastian, but failed because of his great strength. She was dragged into the car and was worn the seat belt tightly.
“Teddy, go to Phatom Club!”
“Sir, it…it is not a place suitable for Mrs…” Teddy seemed awkward, and he obviously knew what kind of place it was.
“If you still want to be my driver, you just start the car. Or you get out of here!” With great irritability and anger, Sebastian was not aware what he now looked like.
What Teddy can do was to start the car, after all, he had to support a large family. His old mother had just been seriously ill in hospital, so he can’t give up this well-paying job.
Half an hour later, the car stopped and Sebastian dragged Lillian out of the car.
In front of them was a bar located in the busy downtown area. It looked normal outside, but after several turns, Sebastian took her to a luxurious room. She was aware that this place mustn’t be a good one.
“Sebastian, why do you bring me here?”
“Don't you like to be with other men?” Sebastian pushed Lillian to the sofa, “Today, I really want to see what a bitch you are while with other men here!”
With a cold smile, he turned to go out.
“Mr. Palmer, a surprise seeing you here! But, you come here with a lady, that’s interesting!” A beautifully dressed woman came over.
“Don’t talk nonsense, go find several malicious men, and give a lesson to the woman inside there...” Said Sebastian.
His unspoken words were “Don’t really touch her, just scare her!”
But before he finished, his phone rang. It was Joanna.
“Sebastian, it was thundering outside, I'm so frightened..."
He immediately swallowed the rest of his unspoken words, and turned to comport Joanna in a quiet place.
On the verge of despair, the locked door suddenly was kicked open from the outside with a bang, and a tall figure turned up at the door.
"Leave her alone!"
Lillian looked through her tears and could only vaguely recognize that the man was not Sebastian.
"Who are you? I tell you that we are paid to do this, and you’d better mind your own business." One of the tramps snapped.
At the next second, the man had rushed over, kicking the talking tramp in his stomach.
In a panic, Lillian didn't see how he defeated the tramps. But she soon was lifted up and hugged in his warm arms.
“Lillian, don’t be afraid. I am here and I will protect you from any harm.”
Being stiff for a long while, Lillian asked with shivering voice, “Archibald?”
"It's me." Archibald replied. Then his voice became cold, "Don’t worry, I will let them pay the price, who have hurt you."
Lillian suddenly put her arms around Archibald, "Take me away, I want to leave here ..."
After the terrible thing, her body trembled even more. She had no idea how Archibald suddenly appeared to save her, but she knew that this man could help her get rid of this nightmare. She hugged him tightly and she ever put her legs around Archibald's waist with panic and insecurity. She didn't know how close they were like that in other’s eyes.
Archibald also didn't release her, hugging her with the same strength, as if they were about to become one. He wanted to heal her pain by this way.
Sebastian came over after the phone call and saw they hugged each other so tightly. His face changed immediately. With a roar, he shouted, “What are you doing there?”
