Chapter 157
Sebastian dashed forward with such intensity that Jenny’s bodyguards were caught off guard. They mashed to shield her but were visibly overwhelmed by his force and left gasping for breath
Jenny’s complexion turned ghostly as the encounter unfolded.
“I’m sorry. I was too excited. Where’s the island?” Sebastian asked.
“Here are the coordinates.” Jenny handed him a slip of paper and continued, “I achise you to tread carefully.
“The Zatch family is heavily guarded by skilled fighters You’d be courting death. Perhaps you should wait until I become the Supreme’s wife, and I might help you explore the island.
“It’s all right. I prefer to handle my own affairs,” Sebastian declined politely.
“You’re being recldess,” Jenny snapped, annoyance flaring as she stepped into her car. “Don’t come blaming me if you end up dead.”
She had been prepared to offer him further compensation, but his stubbornness to be independent had irked her deeply.
Aside from Lian, the rest of the Smiths waved Jenny goodbye as the cars drove away, hoping to leave a good impression. Evelyn hissed, “Sebastian, are you mad? Jenny Cadwell just offered you a billion dollars, and you refused. I’m so angry!TM

“Do you think tearing it up will solve your problems? You’ve made so many enemies. I thought you
could rely on the Cadwells‘ support, but now that’s gone.
“Whatever trouble you’re in, it’s your own doing, but don’t involve us. You and Lillian divorcing is not up for debate, Evelyn retorted coldly.
Ronan nodded in agreement. “That’s right. As soon as the one–month cooling off period is over, you will imediately go through the divorce registration.”
Sebastion grabbed Lillian’s hand and said affectionately. “Unless Lillian insists on divorcing me, I will not agree.”
“Lilliam, take a stand. Is it going to be this worthless man or us? Even pressed.
Elijah said seriously, “Lillan, you must think carefully before answering You have to choose between your grandparents and parents and a poor louer who can be found anywhere. You don’t need me to
teach you how to choose.”
