Chapter 19 

Sebastian swiftly wrapped his arms around her from behind. 

“Let go of me,” Lillian pleaded. Her attempts to break free were in vain as Sebastian pressed her down onto the couch. 

“No, please, I beg you,” she implorand 

I can compromise on anything, but not this,” Sebastian said firmly 

Women could be indulged, but not spoiled. Not allowing physical contact was simply unacceptable to him. 

“I’m pregnant.” Lillian resorted to her trump card in desperation. 

Sebastian paused before his anger flared “Lillian, now 1 understand why you rushed into marriage. You’re just trying to shift responsibility onto me!” 

“Don’t be ridiculous! You’re the only one I’ve been with. The child is yours, Lillian retorted, pushing Sebastian away in frustration. 

“Are you really pregnant? Have you been to the hospital for a check–up? Sebastian inquired. 

“I didn’t go to the hospital. I bought a pregnancy test from the pharmacy,” Lian replied coldly. 

“Come, let me check your pulse,“Sebastian offered. 

Lillian didn’t refuse. She knew Sebastian’s medical skills were remarkable. 

After checking her pulse, Sebastian showed a look of realization. 1 

Lillian wasn’t pregnant. She was experiencing some symptoms of anemia and hormonal imbalance, which could have led to a false positive on the test 

“Okay. For now, steer clear of spicy and olly foods,” Sebastian advised, then quickly turned away, struggling to suppress his amusement. 

Just as they were about to leave for the pharmacy, Lillian’s phone rang. She glanced at it and rejected the call 

“Who was that? Why didn’t you answer?” Sebastian asked curiously. 

Lillian hesitated before replying honestly, “It was my mom. I think I need to tell you the truth. Steven’s family is at my house. He came to propose to me. My grandfather and parents have agreed to it.” 

Sebastian pretended to have a sudden realization. “Ah, so you’re just using me to avoid marrying him? That’s why you rushed into marrying me, 

“If you regret it, we can get a divorce,” Lian suggested. 

“Why would I regret it, especially since you’re carrying my child?” Sebastian sald, suppressing his amusement. 

Just then, Evelyn called again. Lillian was about to hang up, but Sebastian stopped her. “Answer I go with you. We’ll have to face it sooner or later.” 

“My parents might give you a hard time, and my grandfather might not have your back. Even the Harrises might be against you. Are you sure you’re up for it?” Lillian asked, her tone tinged with worry. 

Sebastian flashed a contemptuous smile. “I don’t even fear the Shadowtiger’s people. Do you think I’d be afraid of them?” 

Feeling reassured, Lillian decided to answer the call 

As the call connected, Evelyn’s voice pierced through sharply “You’ve been at the hospital for so long. Why haven’t you come back yet? 

Lillian had used feeling unwell as an excuse to leave the house. 

“I’m on my way back now,” Lan said before hanging up. 

Sebastian drove Lan to the Smith residence. 

The Smith and Harris familles were joyfully discussing the engagement arrangements when they arrived 

Steven’s face lit up at the sight of Lillian’s return, but he froze the next moment as he noticed Sebastian trailing behind her 

Evelyn also spotted Sebastian, and her displeasure flashed in her eyes. “Lillian, why did you bring him here?” 

Lillian summoned her courage and spoke up.“Grandpa, Dad, Mom, I have something important to announce.” 

“What’s so serious? Evelyn asked anxiously 

Lillian suddenly clung to Sebastian’s ans, stunning both families into silence with her gesture. 

“We’re married,” she declared, shocking everyone present. 

“What’s this nonsense?” Evelyn turned swiftly to Steven’s family. “Don’t pay her any mind. She’s just making excuses because she’s not ready to settle down yet, so she’s brought this man here to deceive us.” 

“I don’t buy it,” Lynette said with a smile. 

Then, she turned to Lilian and added, “Lillian, I get that young people these days aren’t rushing into marriage, but you don’t need to bring him over to stage this drama. “We’re only talking about your engagement to Steven for now. We can figure out the wedding details later.”
