“Let’s go inside,” Lillian said.

Just as she was about to enter the building, Sebastian caught her arm.

“Waltamoment. Are you sure you won’t regret this? Sebastian asked.

“If I’ll regret it, I wouldn’t have come, Lillian ceplied.

“In that case, wear this.” Sebastian took out a blood–red pendant necklace and placed it around her neck.

The pendant was shaped like a teardrop magnified several times, hence its name, the Seraphic Tear Pendant necklace.

“What’s this?” Lillian asked, feeling puzzled,

“It’s my most precious possession. From now on, it will be the Wilder family’s family heirloom,” Sebastian explained with a sma

Lillian didn’t think much of it. To her, it was just an ordinary pendant necklace.

The two entered the city hall and emerged later with the marriage certificate

Sitting in the car, Sebastian examined the marriage certificate and studied the photo they had taken

He was beaming in the picture, but Lillian’s smile seemed somewhat forend.

Lilkan started the car and drove off

“Where are we heading? Sebastian asked.

“Home,” Lillian replied flatly

“Tham’t bought a house yet shall we po boy one now? I have money,” Sebastian suggested.

He had been living alone in his office before, but now that he was married, he couldn’t let Lillian stay there with him,

“Keep your money for yourself. Although we’re married now, I won’t spend a cent of yours,” Lillan said firmly.

Shortly after, Liflan drove into a luxurious villa area and parked in front of one of the villas

“Honey, is this your house? Sebastian asked as he wandered around the villa.

Lilian nodded. “I’ve only stayed in this house a few times since buying it, but I’ll be living here more often from now on.”

“Where’s the bedroom? Sebastian asked.

Litan sat on the couch, feeling a headacbecoming on.

Although she and Sebastian had obtained their marriage certificate, she understood that her grandfather and parents wouldn’t easily accept it. There would likely be many

troubles ahead.

Meanwhile, Sebastian went to inspect the two bedrooms on the first floor. After replaceing no signs of previous occupancy, he walked out and asked, “Honey, where’s your room?”

Lilian’s guard instantly went up. “Why do you ask?“”

“Come on, now that we’re married, we’ll be sleeping together. You won’t have to suffer sleepless nights alone anymore. I’ll hold you in my arms every night, Sebastian said with a charming smile.

“You’re overthinking it,” Lillian said calmly. “I married you out of necessity, so we need to establish an agreement.”

“Is the first condition that I’m not allowed to touch you?” Sebastian guessed.

“Exactly,” Lillian said “It’s a one–year agreement. You’re not allowed to touch me, and if necessary, you’ll have to cooperate with me in acting

“But don’t worry. Once the agreement expires, I’ll compensate you with ten milion dollars ”

Sebastian wore an expression of resignation. “I’m at an age where there a lot of desires. I can endure for a day or two, but three or four days might be a stretch, let alone a year, What if accidentally violate the agreement?”

“You absolutely cannot violate the agreement. If you do, I won’t let you off the book, and you’ll have to pay ten times the penalty,” Lillian warned solemnly.

Sebastian felt reassured after hearing this. Ten times the amount was just 100 million dollars, which he didn’t really care about

However, Lillian still had some doubts. She hurried to the study to print out two copies of the agreement.

“Take a look everything’s fine, then sign it,” Lillian said

Sebastian quickly skimmed through the agreement. Apart from the condition Lillian had mentioned, there were a few other ones, like not allowing him upstairs, dressing properly when leaving the room, and maintaining hygiene.

Sebastian tore the agreement in half after reading it.

“What are you doing? Lillian claimed angrily upon seeing Sebastian tear up the agreement

Sebastian smirked contemptuously. “You married me willingly, I didn’t force you. Now, you’re presenting me with an agreement, forbidding me from touching you. That’s something I absolutely cannot accept.

“I won’t say it again. I’ll give you ten million dollars, and if you replace insufficient, I’ll double it,” Lillan said.

“I don’t want a single rat. I just want you,” Sebastian said as he approached her.

“Don’t come any closed!” Lilllan exclaimed. She hastily took a few steps back, attempting to flee
