Chapter 278 The Man in the Wheelchair

Joyce, confused, gently patted his back. "Sebastian, did your dad say something to you?"

Sebastian vehemently denied it. "No, | just... | suddenly felt scared of losing you, that's all."

"How could that be? Our baby is about to be born, and I'm counting on you to earn money for our baby. Alright,

stop overthinking. You've been under too much pressure lately. Relax and enjoy yourself today."

Joyce tenderly rubbed Sebastian's face and stood on tiptoe to kiss his cheek. She smiled and asked, "Do you feel

better now?"

Sebastian wrapped one arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace. His deep eyes were filled with

emotions he couldn't hide. His warm lips gently brushed against Joyce's cheek, and he said hoarsely, "As long as

you're here, I'm not afraid of anything."

With that, he lowered his head and covered her soft lips with his. The two stood on the lawn, basking in the

bright midday sun, sharing a passionate kiss.

Sebastian let go of all his worries and fully enjoyed the happiness Joyce brought him. He kissed her more and

more passionately, reluctant to let go even after a long time.

Finally, Joyce had to stop him in time. "Sebastian, stop. | can't breathe."

Sebastian gently caressed Joyce's slightly reddened lips with a smile. "One kiss and you're already

overwhelmed? My, my, darling, you have quite the appetite."

He then leaned close to her ear, lightly biting her earlobe, and whispered, "How about | satisfy you after the

guests leave?"

Joyce's face turned bright red, and she punched his chest hard. "Stop talking nonsense. The guests are still

waiting for us."

Sebastian laughed and rubbed her burning face. "Let's go inside." He put his arm around Joyce's shoulder and

walked towards the hall.

Derek, who had been standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, watched the scene unfold. Sipping his water, he

said, "Their relationship is so good. If they ever break up, Sebastian would go crazy."

Elise, standing beside him, looked up at him with a gentle voice. "Joyce wouldn't do that. She wouldn't blame

Sebastian for Cordelia's actions. They will always be together."

As she spoke, her eyes involuntarily welled up with tears. She suddenly recalled the moments she had shared

with Derek. 'Why did we break up even though we had such a good relationship back then? What is our

relationship, and why doesn't Derek remember any of it?"

Hearing her words, Derek looked at her with deep emotion. "Elise, I'm sorry. | still can't remember what

happened between us, which led to Cordelia not getting the punishment she deserved. | feel very guilty."

"Don't say that. This matter must be more complicated than we think. I've been seeing a psychologist lately, and

the doctor suggested | try scenare-enactment. I'm planning to give it a try."

Derek immediately objected. "No, that kind of desensitization therapy is very dangerous. If something goes

wrong, your condition could worsen, and you could die. | don't agree with you doing that."

Elise's expression was resolute. "But | can't just watch Sebastian and Joyce break up. They've been through so

much; they've suffered enough."

"Don't worry, there will be a better way. Don't risk yourself lightly. | don't agree, do you understand?" Derek

extended his arm and pulled Elise into his embrace. Since he had been in contact with Elise, he felt like he had

regained the ability to love. It felt like falling in love for the first time, and his heart was actually racing. Just then,

Elise's phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, she immediately answered, "What's up?"

A man's deep voice cfrom the other end. "Elise, I'm in City B. Let's meet tonight. It's been a while since |

saw you and Leo. Dad sent ssupplements for you." "Sure, let's meet at my place tonight. I'm at a friend's

house now, but I'll be back in the afternoon."

"Alright, see you tonight."

After hanging up, Elise was excited. "My brother is in City B and will be at my place tonight. I'll head back after

lunch."

It was the first tDerek had heard her mention her family, so he asked tentatively, "You have a brother? Why

didn't Leo mention it when you needed a liver donation?"

"He's my father's adopted son. He grew up with my father. | was found by my father later. He had a car accident

and is paralyzed, relying on a wheelchair. He never married or had children and has always treated Leo as his

own son." Hearing that they weren't biological siblings, Derek becwary. His brows furrowed instantly, and

his tone was filled with jealousy. "Leo is my son. You can't let anyone get too close to him."

Elise smiled. "He won't. He's a good person. I'll introduce you when there's a chance."

After lunch, Elise chatted with Joyce for a while, then had Derek drive her back.

As soon as Elise got out of the car, she heard someone calling her from behind. "Elise."

joy of reading with others and spread the word. The next chapter is just a visit away! Hearing the call, Elise

immediately turned around. She saw a man getting out of a car in a wheelchair. She immediately ran over with a

smile. "Why are you here so early?"

Kevin smiled warmly, his eyes filled with undisguised affection. "I thought you'd be back soon, so | cto wait.

Shouldn't you invite your friend up?"

Elise pushed Kevin's wheelchair to Derek's car. She introduced with a smile, "Derek, this is my brother Kevin

Guise. Kevin, this is Derek."

Derek had just gotten out of the car and, hearing the name, immediately turned to look. He saw a familiar face

of his college classmate.

Derek's eyes widened in disbelief. "Kevin, the class president of the Electronic Engineering Department, Class 3,

at City B Emerald Federation University?" Kevin nodded slightly. "I didn't expect you to rememberafter all

these years. Derek, long tno see." He extended his hand to shake Derek's. Elise looked at them in disbelief.

"You two already know each other? You were college classmates?"

Kevin smiled. "To be precise, we were rivals in love. We both liked the sgirl back then, and he ended up

marrying my crush."

Hearing this, Derek laughed heartily. "You're still the sas in college, holding grudges. It's been so many

years, and you still remember that." "How's it going? Are you and Cordelia still as loving as ever? | always knew

she looked down onfor being disabled."

At the mention of that name, Derek smiled bitterly. "We got divorced."
