Speed Candles novel Chapter 38

“Mr. Clark, cool down.”

Koby had no choice but to persuade Sebastian, “Mr. Miller just now was too…”

Oskar had problems with his heart since childhood. Once he got jar or had a fight with others, he would have a heart attack. If something untoward should happen to Oskar in the C City, Koby couldn’t bear the responsibility.

“Koby, you want me to fire you, right?” Oskar covered his chest, gritted his teeth and cursed, “If you want to go over to him, just fuck off.”

Oskar was so angry that he even couldn’t breathe smoothly. He coughed a few times, “Sebastian, you really have a good brother. When I was abroad, your brother got Fiona to me…He also told me, as long as she fell in love with me, the L District would belong to me. You can imagine how much that allured me.”

…

It was already the morning. Both of them hadn’t slept all night. Emily just had a nap.

Sitting in the car, Sebastian was in a trance. He kept thinking about what Oskar had said to him. He thought Oskar had only himself to blame, but in fact Javion was actually the one who instigated him.

“Mr. Clark, I have investigated it. At that time, Miss Clark went to a party and was drugged in her drink by someone. Then she ran into Oskar, but he did not do anything to her, only to help her call a doctor.”

“Find out who drugged her, and if it’s inconvenient, you can take a trip abroad.”

When Emily woke up, she heard Sebastian was making a phone call. He was expressionless, with dark circles under his eyes and messy hair.

“Why don’t you just go and ask your sister or…”

“Emily, do you think I’m as stupid as you are?”

If he really went to ask, before he got the answer, he would have been schemed. He knew very well how smart Javion was.

“You are right. I’m just stupid.”

She had gone through it all. She knew his feelings at that moment, because she was also betrayed and schemed by those closest to her. Everything was like two years ago.

Sebastian lit a cigarette, deliberately mocked her, “If you had been smarter, even a little bit, you would not have been like this.”

His handsome face was all covered in the thick white smoke. Emily wanted to see his expression clearly, but couldn’t.

She did not feel shy away from this man. She just made up leisurely in the car. The light refracted from the mirror was too harsh for Sebastian. He put out his hand and covered his injured face.

Emily took out the band-aid in her bag and handed it to him. Sebastian gave her a glance, but did not take it. He drove the car out, “Don’t you see I am driving?”

Was he asking for her help?

She had to tentatively open the band-aid and stick it on his dark side face. He turned to look at himself in the rearview mirror and frowned.

“Mr. Clark, why do you put a cold shoulder on me? Why didn’t you think about it when you were fighting?” After Emily said these to him, she continued her make-up.

Sebastian turned to look at her. She was applying the make-up on her white and delicate face carefully, as if carving a work of art.

She picked a lipstick colored like ox blood, with a little black in the red.

“This color doesn’t suit you.”

Emily stared at him in surprise and was also puzzled, “So, you not only like to peek at other people’s mobile phones, but also like to peek at women’s make-up?”

Sebastian ignored her. He just thought to himself that this woman was charming if she didn’t make a fuss.

On the way, she noticed that he always stared at the rearview mirror and touched his wound. Maybe he felt uncomfortable.

“Do you need to go to the hospital?” She asked.

“No.” While driving out, he said, “I just need to have a rest.”

Emily’s first reaction was to find a hotel. She said, “Then you can drop me there. You go to a hotel, and I’ll take a taxi back myself.”

But she didn’t expect that he looked at her coldly and frowned, “Aren’t you going to invite me to your home?”

She found that the man in front of her was too fickle. He wanted to kill her in the hospital before, but now he was so courteous to her.

Emily felt suspicious. She pursed her lips and put on a pink lipstick. Then she said, “Mr. Clark, you mean you want to have dinner at my house and even sleep there?

“You have racked your brains to be my wife. Don’t you want to make love with me?”

It seemed that Sebastian said these on purpose to insult her. It inevitably made Emily feel uncomfortable.

“Okay. But you also have to promise me one thing.” She played with her fingernails and said to Sebastian.

“Don’t worry. When you are officially accepted by our Clark family, that’s when you’ll be innocent.”

Emily felt satisfied. For the rest of the time, they were both silent. After lying in the car for more than ten minutes, they had arrived at the apartment.

It was just dawn. Many people came into and out of the elevator. Housewives went to buy vegetables, white collars went to work, students went to school, and elderly people went to do exercise.

Seeing this, Sebastian didn’t want to get off the car and was just in the driver’s seat.

Emily opened the door but he stopped her, “What are you going to do?”

She blinked at him ambiguously, and put her wrist on the half-open door, “Do you want to use the condom or me to take pills?”

In the past, they made love so many times but didn’t have contraceptive measures. Fortunately, Emily hadn’t gotten pregnant.

But as the saying goes, take every care just in worst case. The reason why it’s called an accident was that it was unexpected. No one can guess whether the accident would happen this time. Maybe she was lucky enough today to get pregnant.

Hearing her saying these, Sebastian almost subconsciously looked at the street. It was busy and there were several pharmacies.

He turned his head and said, “Use the condom!”

They were both adults. The desire for food and sex was just, nothing to be ashamed of. Emily made an OK gesture to him, and then went to the pharmacy.

When she came back, people all went out. Sebastian put on his sunglasses, opened the door and got off, and followed her into the elevator.

After coming into her house, he took off his clothes, and then sat on the sofa. Emily asked, “Do you want something to drink?”

After what happened last night. Sebastian also felt tired. He said bluntly, “I want to eat some noodles?”

“Wait a moment.”

She turned and went into the kitchen to cook noodles for him. Sitting on the sofa, he was bored and suddenly thought about Fiona, which made him feel not sleepy immediately.

After calling Hope, he finally felt at ease and picked up the iPad that Emily put on the low cabinet. What he saw when he opened it was a piece of titbit “The president of Dier and Seaview Properties hung out with different beauties”.

The writer’s writing style was really good. Most of the pictures of that titbit were his former girlfriends. Many people had made comments on it.
