Chapter 141Â
After being forced to stop, the throbbing in Sebastian’s head felt unbearable. He could only lower his head and gently trail kisses from Valeria’s hair to her shoulders.Â
He had been extremely patient as he showered her with gentle kisses.Â
He had never experienced such a thing before. Although he had dated before, he remembered that Jane had been extremely cooperative when they slept together and tried all kinds of positions.Â
In his memory, Jane would also cry, but she would just sob silently, and she never cried like how Valeria was crying now.Â
Valeria was crying so hard that her eyelashes had clumped together, and her tears were falling heavily, just like the heavy rain outside.Â
Soon, Valeria stopped crying. However, the sadness in her heart had not lessened in the slightest.Â
Perhaps it was because of how hard she cried, but Sebastian did not force himself on her again. Instead, he just patiently comforted her and kissed her.Â
She had never seen Sebastian act like this before, and she was shocked that he could actually be so gentle and patient.Â
Although his expression remained cold, there was a stark difference from the look in his eyesÂ
now and before.Â
With a hoarse voice, Valeria asked Sebastian a question she knew the answer to. “Sebastian, were you also like this with your ex–girlfriend?”Â
Frowning, Sebastian asked, “Why are you suddenly so interested in my previous sex life?”Â
Noticing that Valeria had stopped crying, he reached out to pinch her cheeks.Â
Then, his tone became nonchalant as he teased, “Valeria, you looked just like a cat when you cried just now.Â
“Do you want to see what you look like now? If other people didn’t know any better, they’d think I’ve just bullied you.”Â
Then, he pinched her jaw and turned her head to face the mirror.Â
Valeria already knew what she would look like, and her face felt slightly numb from all the crying. In fact, she had cried so hard that she felt like she nearly had alkalosis.Â
She swatted his hand away and lowered her head, not wanting to look into the mirror.Â

Chuckling, Sebastian weaved his fingers through Valeria’s hair and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. Then, he cheekily pinched her nose.Â
Feeling like she couldn’t breathe, Valeria could only open her mouth as she turned to look atÂ
him.Â
Initially, Sebastian had no intention of letting her go so easily, but he did not have it in him to continue touching her after seeing how hard she was crying.Â
They had a long time ahead of them, so there was no need for him to rush.Â
Just as Sebastian was about to let go of Valeria, she suddenly stood on her tiptoes and cupped his head with her soft and slender fingers.Â
Her soft lips trembled as she took the initiative to kiss him. She also seemed extremely nervous as her kiss had first landed on the corner of his lips before she finally found her target.Â
Not expecting her to take the initiative, he braced himself with a hand against the wall as he looked at her with interest.Â
However, to his surprise, Valeria’s kiss was clumsy and inexperienced. She only knew how to brush her lips against his before pulling away hesitantly.Â
Valeria seemed to be tired of standing on her tiptoes. So, Sebastian reached his free hand out when she tiptoed again to help support her waist.Â
Her kisses felt like something similar to a little chick pecking him on the lips.Â
Sebastian had been ready to let her go, but her kisses immediately stirred up the desire that had been building within him.Â
Valeria reached her arms out and wrapped them around his neck, making him lower her head. She tried her best to stand on her tiptoes as she gently kissed the corner of his eye.Â
Since they were so close to each other, Valeria was able to see the small mole on the crease of his eyelids. Only someone who was that close to his face would be able to see it.Â
She also saw her own reflection in his eyes as Sebastian didn’t even have time to close themÂ
yet.Â
