Chapter 187
Sebastian laughed at himself mockingly. “I’ve only ever been slapped twice, yet both times, it was done by the same person.”
Lillian felt bad, but she made herself seem cold. “You deserved it. Starting today, I will have nothing to do with you. Leave the Smith residence immediately”
“Do you hear her? Get out of our house! I don’t want to see you!” Evelyn sneered
“Lan Smith, let me ask you one last time. Are you going to choose him? Sebastian asked, pointing at chris.
“Yes.”
Lillian continued, “Mr. Adamos is a department manager at Phoenix Corporation, and his father is the vice president of Phoenix Corporation. He has a bright future ahead of him
“Today, he even brought a ten–billion–dollar project for Smith Group. I believe any other woman would choose somebody as talented as Mr. Adames.”
Chris felt like he was on cloud nine after bearing Lillian’s shower of compliments. He looked at Sebastian arrogantly.

“You hear her, brat? I’m a talented man with a bright future ahead of me. Meanwhile, you’re just a useless man trying to pass the time. Brave of you to try to compete with me
”
Gazing at Lillian, Sebastian said, “You’re doing this for the ten–billion–dollar project? I didn’t expect you to be so shallow.”
“That’s right. I’m a shallow person. Mr. Adamos can help us become a prestigious family in Ravensiew City, but what about you? What else can you do aside from causing trouble?” Lillian questioned
‘Lillian, you finally see it now. If not for this piece of trash who kept causing trouble, our family would’ve prospered long agol” Ewlyn sald
Elijah and the others mocked Sebastian, too.
But Sebastian ignored them. Instead, he stared at Lilian “Did you know I prepared this ten–billion–dollar project for you?”
“Enough!” Lillian snarled. “Sebastian, are you still lying at times like these? Mr. Adamos brought us the ten–billion–dollar project. Do you enjoy taking credit for other people’s work??!
“Exactly. How shameless of you. It’s no wonder you’re useless,” Evelyn commented.
“He’s just a delivery boy. The person who decided to offer you the ten–billion–dollar project was me,” Sebastian scotted.
Chris broke into laughter.
“Are you joking? I begged my dad for this contract. What does it have to do with you?”
Chris looked at Sebastian disdainfully.
“Exactly. You should think before you lie. You’re but a security guard at Phoenix Corporation. Who do you think you are? A small try like you can’t decide on ten–billion–dollar projects like this. What a joke! Evelyn scoffed.
“Get out! Get out of our house!”
Belinda and the others began to criticize Sebastian, too. They all gazed at him with disgust and hatred.
Sebastian laughed. “I gave you the chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Don’t regret this in the future!”
“We’d regret it if Lillian chose to be with you, Hurry and get lost! What a waste of time talking to you,” said Evelyn, looking disgusted.
Sebastian looked at Lillian one last time, and he turned around to leave.
“I’m sorry.”
Lim felt guilty, but that was her only choice for the sale of the company and her family,
After Sebastian left, Chris and the Smith family began discussing the wedding.
It appeared that both parties wished to have the wedding the next day, but Lillian firmly rejected them. She was determined to wait until they signed the ten–billion–dollar project.
Also, she would only consider a wedding after she had officially divorced Sebastian.
Chris was unhappy, but he didn’t push it. After all, the ten billion–dollar project was set. He only had to wait for two more weeks,
After Sebastian left the Smith residence, he returned to his office at Phoenix Corporation. Then, he summoned Casper and Natalie.
“Mr. Wilder, what’s the matter at this hour?” Casper asked curiously.
“Is there somebody called Chris Adamos in our company?” Sebastian asked icily
“Yes. He’s Mr. Adamos‘ son, and he’s currently the sales manager. What’s wrong? Casper asked confusedly
“Did you hire him because he’s Ambrose’s son?”
Sebastian’s expression was grim.
Cmper felt his heart drop. He hurriedly explained, “That’s not it. Chris joined our company
ny after a formal assessment there was no cheating or fraud,”
When Chris and Sebastien had had their conflict by the entrance in the past, Derick had handled the matter. Sebastian hadn’t purused the matter after that, so Casper and Natalle
