Chapter 178
Fortunately, Sebastian snatched Bonnie’s phone and ended the call before she could tell the police her address.
Aliyah breathed a sigh of relief instantly, happy that her son had taken her side.
"What do you mean by that, Mr. Grant? Are you going to settle the matter behind closed doors?" Bonnie asked coldly.
Who would have known that the atmosphere in the room had been so peaceful one minute ago?
Sebastian could feel that the woman in front of him had put on her guard instantly and distanced herself from him to keep herself safe, just as if a turtle drew itself back to its shell. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
He felt upset about the distance between them.
Sebastian dropped his eyes and said in a husky whisper, "How do you want it to be settled?"
"It’s very simple. She has trespassed and insulted me. I demand $500,000 as compensation for mental damages," replied Bonnie.
Sebastian tightened his grip on the phone, swallowed and chuckled. "Five hundred thousand? How dare you!"
"After all, I’m mistaken as Mr. Grant’s mistress. If word gets out, my reputation will be ruined, and no man will marry me." Bonnie raised her voice, aware that if she didn’t make her relationship with Sebastian clear now, Aliyah would definitely come at her again.
This time, she broke into her suite. What would happen next time?
Aliyah might threaten her with her children.
In the worst case, Aliyah would find out that Bonnie had kept the other three children of Sebastian’s, and take them all.
Bonnie never wanted to suffer the pain of separating with her children again!
When she was focusing on distancing herself from Sebastian, she failed to notice the sullen look on his face.
A sneer spread across his face slowly.
Was this woman so lonely that she couldn’t wait to marry another man?
Anger welled up inside Sebastian, and he was about to flare up.
Meanwhile, Aliyah took on a look of sneering contempt as she heard the number "$500,000". "I didn’t expect you to be such a shrewd businesswoman, Miss Annie. Fifty hundred thousand? You impressed me."
"Mom," Sebastian said sullenly, "there’s nothing between Annie and me. You’ve misunderstood us."
"I’ve misunderstood you? You were having dinner with her at the same table, and she was cutting ravioli for you. You think that’s nothing?" In Aliyah’s opinion, Sebastian treated her like an idiot.
Sebastian, however, remained calm, swallowed and replied in a low and hoarse voice, "I’m not blind enough be with her."
He said faintly, but his sarcastic words cut Bonnie deep.
Bonnie felt a sharp pain throughout her body, and she found it hard to breathe.
So in Sebastian’s opinion, he was blind to be with her.
Sebastian had been so mean to her all the time, and that had never changed.
Bonnie took a deep breath to fight back the pain and played along with Sebastian. "You’ve also heard that, Ms. Stewart. Your son has no interest in me at all, and I have no intention of marrying him either."
In fact, Aliyah didn’t believe it, but she decided not to dwell on this issue anymore at the sight of Sebastian’s stern face.
"I’m going back," she said and left at once.
Meanwhile, Sebastian also strode away sullenly.
He even slammed the door shut behind him.
