True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 85 Giving Up on Studying Abroad Harold glared at Sebastian, his voice dead serious. "You knew Joey before?" Sebastian shrugged. "Didn't you see it yourself?" "Joey used to work for you. She was your Chief Secretary, right?" "Harold, I didn't want to hide it, but Joey askednot to say anything. Don't blme." Sebastian pointed to the wine stain on his face and chuckled. "Look at this, all her doing. Aren't you going to do something about it?" Harold, usually calm and smiling, was now trembling with anger. "You deserved it! She gave up her chance to study abroad and becoming a legal elite for you. She was right to scold you. You're not just blind, your heart is blind too. Don't ever say we know each other!" Harold was shaking with rage.

He never imagined that the person who had been bullying Joey and pushing her to the brink was Sebastian. And he had even brought him here, giving him another chance to humiliate Joey.

Thinking of this, Harold felt a dull pain in his heart.

He hadn't walked far when Sebastian grabbed him. "What study abroad opportunity? What for me? Hasn't she always liked Julian? She even dared to have an affair to be with him. Harold, don't think that just because you studied law, you can fool me." Harold looked at him coldly, his tone full of endless sarcasm. "How could my sister have such a jerk for a grandson! You imagine betrayal all by yourself. You're really something! Since you like to fantasize so much, go ahead and keep doing it!" With that, he shook off Sebastian and went after Joey.

Sebastian was left standing there, dumbfounded.

He thought, 'Why did Joey give up the chance to study abroad? Why did she give up the legal field to ctoand be my Chief Secretary? Wasn't she just treatingas a stand-in? But if she liked Julian, she could have gone abroad with him. Why did she agree to my condition of only dating and not marrying?' These thoughts were like knives, constantly stabbing at Sebastian's heart.

He quickly rushed over and grabbed Harold's wrist. "Mr. Whitmore, who is the person Joey really likes?" Harold sneered. "Do you think addressingas Mr. Whitmore will change anything?" He lightly patted Sebastian's handsface, smiling meaningfully. "You hurt her so much before. You don't deserve to know the truth. I said it before, Joey is my most valued student. If anyone dares to bully her, I won't let that jerk off easily. Even if you're my sister's grandson, I won't go easy on you!" With that, he broke free of Sebastian's grip and turned to walk towards Joey.

The next morning.

Joey was woken up by the ringing of her phone.

She groggily answered it.

On the other end cSebastian's hoarse voice. "Bring the contract and csign it." At the mention of signing, Joey's mind immediately cleared up.

She was about to agree when she suddenly realized it was Sebastian on the line.

The joy that had just lit up her face vanished instantly.

Her voice turned cold and distant. "Sorry, the Winters Group order is too large for us to handle. You should find someone else." She was about to hang up when she heard Sebastian chuckle.

"Joey, is it that the Winters Group order is too large, or are you afraid to come?" As you reach the final pages, remember that 000005sis your destination for the complete story.

If you keep bothering me, I might start to think you have a soft spot for your pet." Sebastian's fingers turned white, veins bulging on the back of his hand.

Joey's words were like a thorn, piercing his chest.

He didn't even know why he always wanted to cling to Joey and hear her voice.

Even if she scolded or hit him, it felt better than not being able to see or touch her.

His eyes darkened, and his voice grew hoarser. "Joey, if you enjoy daydreaming that much, perhaps you should take up writing . I'm doing this because of my relationship with Mr. Knight, giving his son sbusiness. It has nothing to do with you.

"Besides, Mr. Knight has already spoken to my grandmother. If I don't help you guys out, she won't letoff either.

"Don't think I'm cooperating because of you. You're not that charming." Joey could hear the disdain in his voice.

She also knew that the usually cold-hearted Sebastian only listened to his grandmother.

Her guard relaxed a bit. "When is Mr. Winters available?" "Nine in the morning, at the golf course I frequent. Don't be late." When Joey arrived the golf course, Sebastian had just finished a shot.

Before the ball landed, Isabella ran over to check.

Then she excitedly shouted, "Theodore, you lost! Sebastian got a hole-in-one." Theodore walked over, smiling as he ruffled her hair. "Who's your real brother? Why are you so happy that I lost?"

Isabella leaned on Theodore's shoulder, pouting, "Sebastian was once a world champion. It's already great that you can play a few rounds with him. Don't be discouraged, keep trying!" "Alright, you're good with words, not offending anyone. Go rest for a bit. I have something to discuss with Sebastian." Isabella pouted and walked away. As she turned, she saw Joey standing in the rest area.

Isabella's previously smiling eyes instantly turned cold.

She quickly walked up to Joey, glaring at her. "What are you doing here?" Joey's expression was indifferent. "Business."

Isabella chuckled. "Trying to get the Winters Group contract for your Julian? Joey, I didn't know you were so shameless, Sebastian, such a proud person, would never want a woman who's slept with others!" Joey looked at her calmly, a cold smile on her lips. "No matter how many people I slept with, I'm not as bad as you." "What do you mean?" "You know exactly what I mean, Ms. Vale. Should I talk about your scandals from three years ago abroad?" Hearing this, Isabella immediately stood up, glaring at her with anger. "You wouldn't dare!"

"Whether I dare depends on your attitude, Ms. Vale. Do you think I don't know who setup on the rooftop during the anniversary Celebration? e Do you think can't find out who setup with Julian?" Isabella chuckled derisively. "You have no evidence. Even if you tell Sebastian, do you think he'll believe you? As long as we're together, he'll always believe me!" Seeing Isabella so arrogant, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Joey's eyes.

She was right.

Between her and Isabella, Sebastian would never choose her.

Joey couldn't help but sneer. "Isabella, that aphrodisiac tormented me, but I have to thank the person who drugged me. Without that incident, I wouldn't have entered the legal field so quickly." As soon as Joey finished speaking, an icy voice cfrom behind her. "What aphrodisiac?"
