Finished
After finishing his talk, Sebastian went downstairs and saw Lillian seated at the table, a book open in one hand while the other held a small red pill.
“What’s that?” Sebastian asked as he walked over.
Lillian answered, “Mr. Geo gave it to me, asked me to study it p>
Sebastian caught the seriousness in her expression. “Is it difficult p>
She nodded. “It is tricky, but don’t worry, I’ll figure it out. What troubles me is that the drug you were given this time, and the one Ryan encountered before, share similarities with this pill. I want to find out what the connection is p>
Sebastian reached out, took the pill from her hand, and examined it closely. “Are certain p>

Lillian shook her head slightly. “Not entirely. But one thing is clear-all three contain a substance that interferes with the brain’s functions. I just don’t know if it’s exactly the same compound p>
Seeing the deep furrow in her brow, Sebastian gently ran his hand through her hair. “Don’t rush. Take your time. I know you’ll figure it out p>
Lillian clutched his hand, her eyes pained. “I’m scared. Scared that if I’m not by your side next time, what then? Do you know how many times I’ve thought about it-what if I hadn’t gone with you to the Lindt family that night? What if I hadn’t pulled you out in time? What if p>
“No.” Sebastian cut her off firmly. “No, don’t even think that way. I won’t let them get another chance. So don’t worry, alright p>

September first-the start of the new term.
Kingston University had begun registration at the end of August, but because of company matters, Lillian’s arrival was delayed until the official opening day.

When everything was packed, Foster carried the luggage to the car.
Sebastian looked at Lillian with reluctant eyes. “Are you sure you don’t want me to drive you p>
Lillian stepped forward, wrapped her arms around his neck, and smiled brightly. “I don’t want anyone else eyeing you. I’d get jealous. So stay home and behave. I’ll be back Saturday p>
Sebastian pulled her gently into his arms. “Then be careful. Think of me all the time. Call me every day. Take care of yourself. And if I find out you’ve lost weight, then our promise is off p>
Lillian let him go, gave a playful salute, and said, “Yes, sir, my fiancé p>
Sebastian looked at her mischievous smile, pinched her nose lightly, and sighed. “What am I going to do with you p>
