Chapter 39
Since Katherine was already here, even if she got a bit upset, she wouldn't just leave like that.
Once she had the upper hand with Sebastian, she would show this mother-daughter duo her true colors!Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
With this thought in mind, Katherine looked at Stephanie with a beaming smile and said, "Steph, I heard from your mom that you didn't continue with your education after high school. I didn't know about you before, but now that I do, I can't just ignore you. Tell me what major you want to study, and I'll make sure you get into the best university!"
Hearing this, Marilyn wavered a bit. Her baby girl couldn't attend college because of her illness and started working at a young age to save money for her surgery.
Seeing her mother's reaction, Stephanie scoffed, "Wow, sis, you sure know how to play your games! But don't worry about it, my fiancé has already taken care of everything for me."
In reality, other than keeping her from working at the bar, Sebastian hadn't arranged anything.
But bringing him up now would help clear her mother's mind.
Sure enough, after hearing that, Marilyn's expression changed right away. That's right, she didn't need to worry about these things... Steph had Seb, who had promised her that he would take good care of Steph.
The last time they were insulted at the Klein family's, it was Seb who stood up for them.
He was a man of his word. When he said he would take care, he really would. The deputy dean of the hospital came to check on her every day and treated her with great respect.
Marilyn had never enjoyed such high-scale treatment in her life, so she wholeheartedly believed in her future son-in-law.
After hearing the name Seb, Katherine's eyes lit up for a moment but then she felt a bit sarcastic.
Someone as lowly as Marilyn actually dared to be Sebastian's mother-in-law?
Meanwhile, as soon as she thought of Sebastian, Marilyn had a little idea.
So, she said to Stephanie, "Steph, you haven't seen Seb in days, right?"
Stephanie was a bit speechless, "Mom, Sebastian isn't sick, why do I have to go see him for no reason?!"
"No, Seb is a good kid. He's been so good to both of us; we can't just take without giving back. Look, I just finished the soup Katherine sent; why don't you take this lunch and bring it to Seb?
Last time when I got back, I texted Seb, and he said the food was delicious and asked who made it."
Stephanie's mouth twitched, "So did you tell him the truth, mom?"
"Of course! My Steph is such a great cook; how could I not let your future husband know? That's how he'll love my daughter even more!"
As Katherine listened to the mother-daughter conversation, her face grew darker and darker.
It seemed the two of them had been
in contact with Sebastian quite a few times... and moreover,
Stephanie frequently went to Skyline Corporation to deliver lunch to Sebastian...
That was just blatantly trying to seduce someone! How shameless!
Stephanie was almost pissed off to death. She didn't need that old dude to like her at all; he was just a seemingly refined scumbag.
Oh right, a few days ago at work, she saw that same woman who had a tryst with Sebastian in the restroom.
The woman was holding hands with a balding, average-looking man, affectionately calling him "hubby"...
So, Sebastian was a typical "homewrecker," huh! He had no moral bottom line!
Got a handsome face but lacked basic morality!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got, and she bluntly told her mother, "You want to bring food to Sebastian? You do it! I don't want to!"
