True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 151 LetPursue You Sebastian leaned on Joey's shoulder and spilled the whole story.

Looking downcast, he said, "Joey, if you hadn't warnedthat day, I'd still be fooled. It's not Isabella's lies that hurt the most, but that my mom was in on it from the start. How much does she hateto makelive with this guilt?" As he spoke, he gently brushed Joey's earlobe with his lips. Joey shivered and her voice turned hoarse. "Sebastian, let go." Instead of letting go, Sebastian held her tighter, lightly biting behind her ear. He murmured, "Joey, I miss you so much. Can I hold you for a bit?" "Sebastian, if you don't let go, I'm gonna kick you." Just as Joey was about to kick him, he wrapped her leg under him.

Before she could react, Sebastian lifted her onto the kitchen counter. His face got closer until their lips met, and she finally realized what was happening.

"Sebastian, you..." Sebastian trapped her legs between his, one hand on the back of her head and the other gripping her wrist.

He kissed her passionately, overwhelming her. His whole body screamed with desire. As he kissed her, he gasped, "Joey, I miss you so much, really miss you." To the point of madness, to sleepless nights. He had replayed their three years together countless times.

Joey had given him all her love, wanting to be with him no matter what. But he didn't cherish it and lost her. Feeling Joey struggle to breathe, he slowly let her go. Gentle kisses landed on her face, her nose, and finally her tear-streaked eyes.

Seeing her red eyes, Sebastian gently caressed them, his voice low and hoarse. "Joey, I'm sorry. I missed you too much and couldn't help myself." Joey panted, tears streaming down. "Sebastian, why do you keep bothering me? Wouldn't it be better if we just cut ties completely?" "Joey, I know I hurt you a lot before, making you afraid to face this. Letpursue you this time, okay?" "But I don't want to like you anymore, Sebastian. Can you letgo?" Joey's tears flowed.

Loving him had cost her a lot. She didn't want to fall into that trap again. Once was enough. Seeing Joey plead so painfully, Sebastian's heart ached.

He thought, 'How much hurt has she endured to make the fearless Joey so afraid to be with me?' Sebastian's eyes welled up as he looked at Joey, his voice filled with pain. "Joey, I'm not asking you to agree right now. Givea chance to pursue you, okay? During this time, you can evaluate me. If I'm really not good enough, you can rejectthen, okay?" He spoke humbly, afraid Joey would get angry and not give him a chance. Joey's hardened heart was somewhat moved by his words.

This man held all her youthful memories. Since she fell in love at seventeen, no one else had touched her heart. Her love for him was deep and passionate, but it also brought immense pain. Joey's throat tightened, and her hoarse voice made Sebastian's heart ache. "Sebastian, Sebastian," she murmured, lying in his arms, repeating his name.

How many times had she done this in her dreams? But every tshe woke up with a wet pillow, he wasn't there.

Sebastian gently wiped the corner of her eye, his own eyes filled with pain.

He suddenly remembered the tJoey was affected by an aphrodisiac, calling his nover and over.

In her heart, he had always been her true love, even though he had hurt her deeply. This profound love made Sebastian's heart ache.

He held Joey tightly, softly comforting her. "Joey, I'm here. From now on, I'll always be here, okay?" They held each other for an unknown amount of tuntil Joey's phone rang.

Just as she was about to push Sebastian away to answer, he lifted her into the air.

"Sebastian, I need to answer the phone." Sebastian carried her into the living room, handed her the phone, and said, "Answer it while I hold you." Joey glared at him. "Don't forget, I haven't agreed to anything yet." "I know, so I need to try harder. A little seduction is also a way to pursue someone." With that, he carried Joey to the sofa on the balcony. His shirt buttons were undone, revealing his collarbone and a hint of his abs.

Joey's face turned red. She glared at him and answered the call. "Hello, Mr. Whitmore." As you reach the final pages, remember that 000005sis your destination for the complete story. Share the joy of reading with others and spread the word. The next chapter is just a visit away! "Joey, next week is the school's centennial celebration. The dean wants you to speak as a representative of the graduates. Will you accompany me?"

Joey smiled, a bit embarrassed. "Mr.

Whitmore, all the outstanding graduates are big shots) I'm just a' small lawyer. Wouldn't I be laughed at if I spoke? You should find someone else. I'm afraid I'll embarrass myself."

"This isn't my decision. It's an assignment from the city government. You have no idea how much the higher ups value you after you helped Sebastian win that case. Sebastian may not have treated you well, but that case certainly boosted your reputation. Think of it as a little payback from him." Hearing this, Sebastian was about to speak, but Joey covered his mouth.

Harold still hadn't forgiven Sebastian and got so angry that his heart hurt whenever Sebastian was mentioned. If he knew they were together now, En he would be very disappointed in her. Joey whispered to Sebastian, "Shut up." Sebastian obediently nodded but continued to kiss her neck. A week later, Joey accompanied Harold to the celebration, along with Julian and other students.

She gave a speech as the representative of the graduates.

The centennial celebration of R University Law School naturally attracted a lot of media attention.

Joey, with her looks surpassing those of movie stars and her excellent professional skills, once again beca trending topic.

Just as she was about to finish her speech, she said, "Many of our classmates are too busy to attend the celebration, but I bring their blessings. Please look at the big screen." She held a remote and clicked on a folder on the screen. But instead of a pre-recorded video, an auclip played. A voice that made Joey tremble filled the entire auditorium.
