Her gaze fixed on the scarf in Sebastian's hand and the bright red bloodstains on it.
Sebastian glanced down at the bloodstains.
Frowning, he asked, “Isn’t this my scarf? How did it get blood on it? What happened?”
Stephanie was at a loss for words.
Her mind was already in a muddle. Now, hearing Sebastian ask her, she felt like she couldn't catch her breath.
“Um, well...” Even with the sharpest mind, she couldn't cup with a plausible reason now.
Ugh, this was really...
“Wait, | remembered. | had a nosebleed.”
Sebastian replied, “Huh?”
“Yeah, a nosebleed. When | was helping you up, | accidentally bumped into something and got a nosebleed,
which got on the scarf?”
Would that excuse work?
‘I don’t know if Sebastian
ould buy it.” she thought.
Sebastian raised an eyebrow, his deep eyes carrying emotions that Stephanie couldn’t understand.
“A nosebleed?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yeah, a nosebleed.” Stephanie Giovanni swallowed subconsciously.
Yes, a nosebleed. She dared not say anything else.
Meeting Sebastian's gaze, Stephanie felt an unprecedented tightness in her chest.
Hearing this, Sebastian strode forward and scooped her up from the bed.
He pinched her nose affectionately and asked, “Did you have a nosebleed?”
Stephanie replied, “I cleaned it.” She felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
Struggling, she tried to escape from Sebastian's grip.
“Ah, can you just letsleep? I'm really sleepy.”
She was scared to death.
If this kept up, she really might be scared to death. Why put her through this torture?
Because of the large motion, the moment Sebastian pulled Stephanie from the quilt, the scarf around her neck
loosened.
A large area of bruising cinto Sebastian's sight, and his deep eyes concealed an unspoken question, “What
happened to your neck?”
Stephanie didn’t know what to say.

Her mind exploded again with a ‘clang’. Oh no, please don’t ask anymore.
Good heavens...
If she was guilty of something, please let the police arrest her instead of torturing her like this.
After spending the whole night looking for excuses, Stephanie was now at a loss for words when faced with
Sebastian's question.
She cautiously met Sebastian's gaze.
“Sebastian.”
“What's wrong?”
Sebastian’s warm fingertips were already stroking the scattered marks on Stephanie’s neck.
The intense heat made Stephanie tremble all over.
A suffocating sensation gripped her chest. “Well, if | did something wrong, would you forgive me, Sebastian?”
Stephanie was on the verge of tears when she said this.
Sebastian replied, “That depends on what kind of mistake you made, Stefi.”
Stephanie was speechless and thought, “Can you forgivefor sleeping with you?”
But it wasn’t really her fault. He had initiated it. He made the first move.
The problem was, this man wouldn't remember anything when he was drunk, and she might end up getting
blamed for it.
Stephanie’s mind was in a complete mess.
Seeing her silence, Sebastian continued, “Stefi, if you fall in love with another man, that would be unforgivable.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStephanie's eyelids twitched.
Her expression stiffened as she looked at Sebastian, wondering, ‘What if I'm in love with you? Would you forgive
Her heart was already in chaos, and now, because of Sebastian’s words, it felt like it was about to explode.
“Umm, | think | want to sleep now,” she stammered.
Unable to give an answer, she resorted to sleep as an escape.
But Sebastian wasn’t going to let her off that easily. His broad palm gripped her slender waist, leaving her
nowhere to escape.
“Stefi, you haven't toldyet how you got those marks on your neck.”
Stephanie didn’t know what to say.
“I fell.”
The excuse lacked any credibility.
