Seeing Sebastian about to send Stephanie away, Jackson's heart trembled slightly, and he instinctively wanted
to intervene. He knew well that Sebastian would act gently if Stephanie was around. But he didn’t dare say a
word.
Especially after noticing the displeased look on Sebastian's face, Jackson dared not speak. He silently prayed
that Stephanie wouldn't leave.
Unfortunately, Stephanie was too well-behaved. Stephanie had beaten Chris forcefully, but she acted like an
angel in front of Sebastian. “I'm leaving now,” she said.
“Be good.” Sebastian pinched her cheek. Stephanie turned and ran off.
Jackson was shocked and thought she was so well-behaved that he could hardly recognize her. If he didn’t know
about her previous engagement with Chris, Jackson would doubt she was the sperson.
Jackson thought, ‘Look at how well-behaved she is before Sebastian. It just proves that Chris missed out on her.
It's his fault for not recognizing people well. Olivia is not as good as Stephanie.”

Stephanie left. Once it was just Sebastian and Jackson alone, Sebastian moved over to the couch and sat down.
Jackson was a bit nervous. “Mr. Giovanni.”
Sebastian gave him a cold look. “Haven't you signed the contract already? Why are you still looking for
Stephanie?” Jackson's heart skipped a beat again. He thought, ‘It's clear Mr. Giovanni raised Stephanie himself;
they even think alike. But leaving Sebastian with the impression that he always tried to take easy routes wasn’t
good. “I mean, it's not about the partnership this time,” Jackson replied.
In the past, whenever he approached Stephanie, it was mainly due to her connection with Sebastian. Jackson
hoped to get a favor by going through her.
Jackson let out a dry laugh. “It's honestly not about the partnership, and | promise not to trouble Miss Giovanni
about that again.” He was trying hard to clear his bad reputation.
Sebastian raised an eyebrow. “Oh?” He took a cigarette from the pack, lit it, took a drag, and kept his gaze coldly
on Jackson.
Jackson swallowed nervously. “It’s about what happened at the mall earlier. | was worried Lilian might have hurt
Miss Giovanni, so | cto check on her myself.”
Sebastian replied, “For things like this, you could have just calledfirst.”
Jackson thought, ‘I cby in person because | was too scared to call.” But from Stephanie’s words, it seemed
almost the sas what Lilian said.
When Lilian said that before, Jackson couldn't believe it. With the past issues between Olivia and Stephanie, he
had to find out the real situation.
“I'm just worried you might involvein this matter,” Jackson whispered.
Sebastian replied, “Hmm?”
“No, I'm just worried Miss Giovanni might get hurt.” Jackson thought with sanxiety.
To be honest, Jackson had been at the top in Long Harbor for years, meeting all kinds of people. But there was
something about the aura Sebastian exuded that gave him chills.

Jackson thought, ‘Maybe it’s because he’s the underground boss of Fiorenza, with his hands stained with blood?
He’s not someone | want to mess with. If it weren't for that rare mineral being nearly impossible to cby, I'd
never dare get involved with Sebastian

Sebastian asked, “Is that clear?”

Jackson nodded. “Yeah, | understand.” As long as Lilian didn’t hurt Stephanie, things would be fine. Lilian was
pretty quick on her feet this time. If she acted on impulse and joined forces with Mayra to stand against
Stephanie, things would have gone south.
Thankfully, Lilian had ssense this time. Watching what Sebastian did to the Garcia family, no one would
know just how anxious Jackson had been these past few days.

Over at Stephanie’s place, Sebastian brought her ssnacks.
Elliot had someone warm them up. “Mr. Giovanni thought the design was cute, so he brought them over for you.”
Stephanie tried one. “Hmm, this little kitty is so good.” Making snacks look like animals was a surprisingly
delicious idea. Elliot said, “The little bunnies taste even better. Mr. Giovanni ate a whole bunch.”
“Really?” Stephanie asked.
“Yeah.” Elliot nodded.
