“Keep pretending, you motherfucker. Keep up your act!” Tina chuckled coldly at him.

She thought that Sean must still be pretending to be calm to protect his tiny male ego and whatever dignity was left in him.

“Is there something wrong with your head?” Sean asked with a frown. He was quickly losing patience with her unruly and narcissistic

behavior.

“Who the fuck do you think you’re saying that to?”

Tina’s face was red with anger. She continued screaming in Sean’s face, “Didn’t you say you lived in Cloudosphere Estate Number One? Then, you must know Diego Black. Do you know that he’s coming to Skye City three days later?”

“Diego’s coming to Skye City?” Sean asked with a frown.

“What, you didn’t know?” Tina asked with a mocking laugh.

“He never told me.”

“That’s right. Because he fucking doesn’t know you!”

Tina felt like a burden had been lifted from her shoulders. She loved exposing Sean for the chronic liar he was. It just gave her the best feeling ever.

“Let me tell you something else. In three days, Diego is holding a major celebration for a mysterious guest on The Mirage. My wedding. with Wayne will also be held there!”

“The Mirage?” Sean’s eyes flickered for just a brief moment. He suddenly felt nostalgic when he heard the name.

“What, you don’t know about it?”

Tina’s voice was laced with scorn and mockery. “Oh, let me tell your about The Mirage, the most luxurious cruise ship in the world, owned by Diego Black!

“He even said that he would personally be there to give his blessing to us during our wedding!

“In contrast, I can’t believe that you only picked a cheap banquet hall to hold our wedding when we got married the last time. If you could afford to live in Cloudosphere Estate Number One and knew Diego. personally, you’d never have done such a thing!

“Now, look at Mr. Jones, and then look at yourself. What the fuck do you even know other than boasting?”

“Well, you were the one who said you wanted a simple ceremony with no bells or whistles. I only respected your wishes,” Sean answered calmly.

“That’s fucking enough, Sean Lakesworth!”

Tina screamed again at Sean, the look of disgust growing more and more evident on her face. “How shameless do you have to fucking be to mask your lack of ability to do anything at all in such a twisted way?”

“Tina, you don’t have to lose your head over a loser like him. Let him continue living in his own bubble. He even said Ellipse Corporation belonged to him back then, but he couldn’t even come up with a million dollars to save his life.”

Wayne scoffed condescendingly before looking at Sean and continuing, “Also, jerk, let me tell you that Tina is now my wife, and you’re not allowed to bother her anymore.”

“Don’t worry. I have no interest in her whatsoever,” Sean answered

calmly again.

After seeing Tina’s true colors and learning that she wasn’t the owner of the hair clip the last time, he’d lost all interest in her immediately.

Wayne frowned. How could this jerk continue pretending to be so calm at this moment?

Tina lost her temper again and screamed in Sean’s face. “Sean Lakesworth! You’re such a fucking liar! You’re only pretending not to care! You said you weren’t interested in me, yet you kept stalking and bothering me! Why the fuck did you come to Cloudosphere Estate to stop our car, then?”

Sean replied once more, “I told you that I live here.”

“Why don’t you go fuck yourself and die?”

Sean’s calmness was making Tina more and more furious. What a pathetic, motherfucking liar!

“Forget about it, Tina, let’s stop stooping down to his level. It must be pretty tiring for him to keep up his act. Let’s just play along with him, alright?” Wayne said, giving Sean a mocking side-eye.

Normally, people like Sean wouldn’t even get a second glance from him. They didn’t deserve it.

“Alright, Mr. Jones. Whatever you say,” Tina said obediently.

Wayne grinned widely. It was as if he was showing off to Sean just how macho and manly he was.

Sean’s expression remained stoic.

He was more worried about the cream carbonara in his hands. congealing into an inedible mess.

“Tina, let’s go home,” Wayne said, still thinking that this was his proud peacock moment.

“Yes, sweetie,” Tina said, wrapping her hands around Wayne’s arm.

They both returned to their car. The Rolls-Royce then started up and headed farther into Cloudosphere Estate.

Sean was thankful that his life had become peaceful once more. He was about to return to his mansion when his phone started ringing in his pocket.

He took out the phone and saw that it was a call from Diego. He

answered the call.

At once, a respectful voice sounded on the other end of the call. “Sire, have you moved back into the mansion?”

“Yep.”

Sean answered while nodding. Then, he added, “Diego, I heard that you’re coming to Skye City to hold a party for me. Is that true?”

Diego was shocked. “Sire, you mean you’ve heard all about it?”

“Yep.”

“Sire, I was planning on surprising you, which was why I didn’t inform you earlier …” Diego started, feeling rather concerned and worried that Sean wouldn’t like it.

“Alright. I’m not blaming you for anything. I’m just confirming thing with you,” Sean said with a chuckle.

Diego heaved a sigh of relief. He immediately followed up, “Sire, then, about the party?”

“Let’s forget about the party. I’ll just come and stroll around the ship when you’re here,” Sean said.

It had been a while since Sean last boarded the luxury cruise ship.

Five whole years, in fact.

“Yes, sire!” Diego responded. He then said, “By the way, sire, there’s something else…”

“What is it?”

“See, it’s like this. Wayne Jones and Tina Sullivan will be holding their wedding at The Mirage in three days. Should I teach them a lesson on your behalf?”

“There’s no need to do so.”

Those two people weren’t worth his time anyway.

“Got it, sire! Sire, that’s all I have to tell you today. I won’t disturb your rest anymore. I’ll be waiting for you on the cruise in three days!”

“Alright.”

Sean then hung up and walked into the Cloudosphere Estate neighborhood.

Back at the mansion, he’d just devoured the entire container of beef cream carbonara when he suddenly received a notification from

Instagram.

He tapped on it and saw that it was a follow request. The account handle of the requester was @iamcecilia. When he tapped on the profile photo, he noticed that it was a collage of photos.

Sean smiled.
