Kneeling for a Second 30

Chapter 30 

It was already past 10:00 pm, and there weren’t any people around them. At that time, Jane was looking at Sebastian with a quiet sense of anticipation. 

It was because she had already slimmed down a little by then, and her beautiful facial features were becoming much more distinct. 

There wasn’t a woman out there who didn’t like looking pretty, and they would want to look beautiful in front of the person they liked. 

Jane knew he would come over that day and that she would see him later, so she had worn some makeup. 

However, Sebastian didn’t seem to have noticed anything at all. He merely asked, “How much do you make a day?” 

“I make 80 a day with this job,” Jane replied, feeling slightly disappointed. 

Sebastian smiled faintly, mentioning, “I didn’t ask you about anything else. What are you thinking about?” 

Looking at his watch, he added, “I’ve been waiting here since 7:30 pm and drank two cups of the coffee that you’ve made. You never once turned to look outside. Jane, are your eyes just for 

decor?” 

“I saw you,” Jane answered, but she didn’t tell him that one of her colleagues was also their 

schoolmate. 

That 

person would have noticed them if Jane went outside to look for Sebastian. 

That night, Jane followed Sebastian to his luxurious apartment in the city center. He then gave her a gift box and asked her to open it. It was a woman’s wristwatch inside. 

He had claimed the watch wasn’t overly expensive and that he had bought it casually. 

She hadn’t believed him back then, but he had looked at her, explaining, “The watch only cost 

80 dollars. It’s the same as your pay after working for a day.” 

The internet wasn’t that advanced yet, and that brand was only well-known in high society. 

After they broke up, Jane mailed the watch back to his home. 

At that moment, when Valeria looked out the window, she saw Sebastian’s arm resting by the 

car window. 

On his wrist was a round, black, and golden watch, in the same model he had given her years 

ago. 

As he lifted his hand to flick off the ash, an air of elegance radiated around him with the small glow in the night. 

As their cars slowly moved, Valeria rolled the window up when their cars were beside each 

other. 

However, their eyes still met when Sebastian turned. 

He raised his eyebrow, and after a few seconds, the black car window quickly covered the woman’s pale face. 

He placed the cigarette between his lips, seemingly deep in thought. 

“Sebastian, are you free this Sunday? Let’s go and attend a concert together,” Sabrina suggested as she turned to look at him. 

However, she did not receive Sebastian’s answer. In fact, he seemed distracted as he stared off 

into the distance. 

Their car arrived at a luxurious neighborhood in Slate City 40 minutes later. 

When Sabrina got down, she drawled, “Sebastian, I didn’t expect to run into my colleagues today. They seem to think that you’re my boyfriend…” 

As she spoke, her cheeks turned red. 

She glanced at Sebastian and continued, “My grandpa would like to meet you. He’s probably still awake, so do you want to—’

“I’ll see him some other day. I don’t want to interrupt his rest,” Sebastian answered faintly before getting in his car. 

Then, Sabrina watched as he drove off into the distance in disappointment. Once she returned home, her mom, Jessica Tucker, came to ask about how things were going between her and 

Sebastian. 

Sabrina was slightly depressed as she complained, “Mom, Grandpa used to be comrades with Sebastian’s grandpa, right? Could you ask Grandpa to help me? 

“I finally managed to invite him out for dinner tonight, but you have no idea how cold and aloof he is. He treats everyone so coldly. Every time I ask him out for a meal, he always claims that the hospital needs him.”

Jessica replied, “Well, you fell for him. There are plenty of eligible bachelors in Slate City.” 

“That’s different. Not everyone’s like Sebastian,” Sabrina responded. 

Sebastian was from one of the top elite families in Slate City, and even the Lawson family wasn’t on par with the Grant family’s status. 

When Sebastian returned home, Nemo began wagging its tail upon seeing him return home. It 

had grown old over the years. 

He walked into his bedroom and began taking off his clothes. 

Suddenly, something fell out of his pocket as he tossed his shirt to the side. Bending down, he picked up the lipstick. It was a YSL lipstick in the shade 302. 

He didn’t know much about women’s lipstick, but Valeria’s fair face began to appear in his mind as he imagined the natural color on her soft and full lips. 

Then, he stared at the lipstick in his hand, lost in his thoughts.
