If she tattles, I’m done for.
Leo Lynch stood from afar, watching with dimd eyes.
Selena Quinn looked at Ethan Sterling, knowing the coffee she brewed for him was not going to be consud.
Seraphina Redgrave looked at the man in front of her, feeling as though nearly everyone was staring at her, as if wanting to pierce her with daggers of their gaze.
Ethan Sterling looked at her, increasingly impatient: "Why are you dazing off?"
This was too overbearing.
"Young Master Sterling, I haven’t learned to dance."
Seraphina Redgrave smiled distantly, pretending not to know Ethan Sterling.
She hoped Ethan Sterling could understand her thoughts and let her live peacefully, not wanting to be targeted by Ethan Sterling’s admirers.
"I’ll teach you."
Ethan Sterling completely disregarded Seraphina Redgrave’s thoughts, directly grabbing her soft and boneless hand, pulling her away.
Ethan Sterling’s body temperature was eternally warm, tightly grasping Seraphina Redgrave’s hand that felt sowhat scorching.
The crowd naturally cleared a path, under the scrutinizing gazes, Seraphina Redgrave was pulled forward by Ethan Sterling. She looked down at the hand holding hers, unable to comprehend his intentions.
Seraphina Redgrave was forcefully pulled to the center raised stage by Ethan Sterling.
The band waiting on the left side of the stage imdiately began to play.
The music was lodious, a special song prepared for Chloe Quinn and Ryan Sterling.
Her waist was embraced by Ethan Sterling, almost floating as she followed his rhythm.
Ethan Sterling was extrely domineering even while dancing.
In Ethan Sterling’s embrace, her dress softly brushed against his suit pants.
She tried not to care, moving to Ethan Sterling’s rhythm.
"You clearly can dance."
Ethan Sterling looked down at Seraphina Redgrave, his eyes sharp. Every ti he looked down, Seraphina felt like she could see an endless ocean in his eyes.
"Young Master Sterling teaches well."
Seraphina Redgrave tried to muster a smile, throwing Ethan Sterling’s words back to him.
In the dance floor, their words were audible only to each other.
"Have you danced with other n before?"
Ethan Sterling’s mood changed swiftly, consuming even the baseless jealousy, gripping Seraphina Redgrave’s waist tighter for a mont.
"Learned in the restricted area."
She learned a lot in the restricted area.
"Was your teacher male or female?"
"Female."
After her orderly response to persistent questioning, Ethan Sterling fell silent as if unbothered, continuing to dance with her, seemingly indifferent to those beneath the stage.
Seraphina Redgrave couldn’t help but ask: "Didn’t you say you wouldn’t co?"
The Sterling Family’s old residence hosting this banquet was certainly repulsive to Ethan Sterling, why would he co.
Upon hearing this, Ethan Sterling forcefully tightened his grip on Seraphina’s waist, pulling her closer.
The sudden closeness between the two elicited gasps from many girls below.
Ethan Sterling seed unfazed, lowering his head, pressing his lips to Seraphina Redgrave’s ear, speaking in a low voice: "Even if I’m no good, I won’t let others bully what’s mine."
This was his reason for coming.
No one could make his people unhappy.
He truly ca for her.
Seraphina Redgrave suppressed the odd throbbing in her heart: "I understand, thank you, Young Master Sterling."
"Hypocrite."
Ethan Sterling snorted coldly, eyes fixed on her fair, slender neck. Knowing he wouldn’t leave her alone, knowing he would co as long as she spoke, yet she hadn’t uttered a word to him.
Seraphina Redgrave didn’t want to argue with him, simply following his rhythm, sighing: "After today, many debutantes might want to kill ."
"Only now realizing?"
Ethan Sterling smiled wickedly.
Seraphina Redgrave placed her hand on Ethan Sterling’s shoulder, speaking softly: "Just act as if I’m rely a random woman you pulled over at the banquet, otherwise it’s going to be very troubleso for later."
Just like Mia Redgrave, who was directly kidnapped.
She didn’t want to face all these ssy matters.
Upon hearing this, Ethan Sterling recalled how Seraphina Redgrave hadn’t moved at all among the guests when he ca, suddenly understanding, his face darkened: "You dislike telling others you’re my woman that much?"
He specially ca to an event he didn’t want to attend, because he heard Seraphina Redgrave was bullied. Not only was she not touched, she was thinking of how to avoid trouble.
Ethan Sterling couldn’t believe he’d be despised by his own woman!
His face turned increasingly unsightly, the whirlpool in his eyes threatening to drown Seraphina Redgrave.
Seraphina Redgrave sensed Ethan Sterling’s displeasure, thinking for a mont, decided not to offend him: "It’s not that I’m unwilling, after all, revealing it has its advantages and drawbacks for ."
Seraphina Redgrave spoke earnestly.
"How?"
Ethan Sterling watched her coldly, waiting for a reasonable explanation.
"The advantage is, with this identity, I can act in Z country without any concerns, everyone must treat with courtesy."
Seraphina Redgrave spoke again: "The drawback is... being targeted, as was the case with Mia Redgrave, but I believe as long as Young Master Sterling is willing, such troubles won’t befall . Moreover... even if unfortunately I do face such troubles, my life is worthless, torn apart, Young Master Sterling could simply find another from the restricted area."
Listening to these words, Ethan Sterling’s gaze grew colder, finally curling his lips, yet devoid of any intent to smile.
"Are you trying to provoke ?"
Seraphina Redgrave closed her mouth.
"I don’t like it when others try to provoke ."
Ethan Sterling gave a cold laugh, at the music’s climax, he released her waist and turned towards the guests.
What was Ethan Sterling going to do?
Could he actually be about to reveal their relationship, claiming she was his kept woman?
Seraphina Redgrave was so scared she couldn’t speak, her hand gripping his quickly cooled, instinctively wanting to escape but was firmly held by Ethan Sterling.
Ethan Sterling looked at Seraphina Redgrave, his eyes filled with domineering presence.
Seraphina Redgrave watched Ethan Sterling, instinctively holding her breath.
In the next mont, Ethan Sterling suddenly drew close to Seraphina Redgrave, causing her to lose balance and fall back, but Ethan Sterling caught her waist just in ti, his expression frighteningly gloomy.
The opening dance ended perfectly.
Applause thundered from the guests, surprised exclamations arose one after another.
"You’re rely sothing I keep, did you really think I wanted to go public?"
Ethan Sterling spoke each word softly, then imdiately withdrew his hand from Seraphina’s waist and walked away.
Seraphina Redgrave struggled to regain her balance, looking at Ethan Sterling with a complex gaze.
So Ethan Sterling never intended to go public, she was overthinking.
Sothing kept?
Indeed, how could a CEO of a large conglorate publicly reveal a kept woman in front of everyone.
She withdrew her gaze, no longer looking at him.
Selena Quinn stood beside Chloe Quinn and Ryan Sterling, her gaze constantly on Ethan Sterling.
Ryan Sterling’s face was already extrely displeased, he coldly laughed then turned and left.
Chloe Quinn imdiately chased after him.
