Stephanie hung up and thought, ‘She is insane’
Just as she hung up, Olivia's voice continued over the phone. “Or you could call Chris and tell him the accident
wasn't my fault.”
Stephanie thought, ‘No sane person would say something like that. | can’t waste ton this. | should hang up
and block them.”
Just hung up the phone when there was a knock on the door. “Stefi, it's me.” Lottie’s voice cfrom outside.
Stephanie instinctively wanted to open the door, but her face froze when she heard the water running in the
bathroom.
Stephanie thought, ‘Even though my mom is okay withbeing with Sebastian, having my mom see him
showering in my room is another issue altogether.
Stephanie's face kept getting tenser and tenser. She wasn’t sure whether to open the door or play sleep.

In her anxious state, the water stopped, and seconds later, Sebastian emerged wrapped in a towel. He held
another towel to dry his hair.
Seeing Stephanie sitting on the bed with her phone, he raised an eyebrow and asked, “Did someone call you?”
Stephanie was about to tell about her mom's visit when Lottie’s voice sounded again from outside. “Stefi?” This
time, the voice was noticeably softer and somewhat testing. If Stephanie was asleep, she wouldn't cin.
Stephanie glanced at the closed door, then at Sebastian. While Stephanie was nervous, he seemed much more
at ease, drying his hair as he moved to open the door. Stephanie was shocked.
Outside the door, Lottie realized there was no movement inside and was about to turn and leave when the door
suddenly swung open. She turned and saw Sebastian looking freshly showered, which startled her.
Lottie said, “You...” She looked at the water on Sebastian's stomach and then glanced past him to the bed where
Stephanie lay.
Seeing Stephanie in her perfectly intact pajamas and with dry hair, Lottie shot Sebastian a glare. “You
troublemaker!”
Sebastian asked, “What's going on?”
“Yes, cout here.” Lottie snapped and gave him a stern look. As she turned to leave, she remembered
something and turned back. “Put your clothes on.”
Sebastian frowned but didn’t say anything. His room was next to Stephanie’s, so he went in, put on his pajamas,
and headed to the study.
Lottie was waiting in the study. When Sebastian cin, her face was still a bit flushed. Confused, Sebastian
asked, “What's wrong?”
“How do you think about it?” Lottie asked.
Sebastian replied, “Please, go ahead.”
Lottie thought, ‘Honestly, having a stubborn son isn’t always good. Is this the warm tone he should use with me?
Does he think I'm his employee? So serious!
Lottie said, “Stefi had a check-up today. Jesse mentioned the baby isn’t very stable. You better hold back

Sebastian was speechless.
Lottie said, “I know you cherish and spoil her, but you have to restrain yourself for now.” She was
straightforward.
Jesse did mention that Stephanie’s baby wasn't very stable. So before leaving today, Lottie specifically instructed
Henry to make sure Stephanie gets more nutrition.
Lottie only stepped out for a moment. When she cback, she saw Sebastian in that state in her room. She
thought, ‘How could I not be startled?”
“Maybe you should just sleep in your room,” Lottie said firmly. She was worried.
Sebastian replied, “You...”
“Stefi has been frail since childhood; you need to be careful,” Lottie insisted.
Sebastian felt unable to understand her way of doing things.
