Why didn't you answer your phone?" "Answer my question first!" Sebastian sounded somewhat irritable. "Where's Rose?" "I'm here," Rosalie said.
Hearing Rosalie's voice, Sebastian asked worriedly, "Rose, are you okay? What's wrong?" "I'm fine. You didn't answer our calls, so Vonnie sent that message to you." Sebastian's voice immediately turned cold. "Yvonne, you can't crack that kind of joke!" "I wasn't joking!" Yvonne said; she lowered her head, upset.
"Seb, don't blher. We were really worried when you didn't answer. Where are you now?" Rosalie said. Sebastian's tone softened instantly. "You don't need to worry about me. You don't need to persuade me, either. I'll take care of myself." "No, we need to meet. I have something important to tell you." "What is it? Just tell me, I'm listening." "No, I need to say it in person. I must see you." She had to see Sebastian to be reassured.
Sebastian sighed. "Alright, I'll cand pick you up." "No need. Vonnie and I will cto you. Just tellwhere you are." After that, Yvonne drove Rosalie to where Sebastian was.
He wasn't at his home, but at a private bar. The bar was small and in a discreet location, but it was exquisitely decorated without flashy lights or deafening music. Sebastian was the only customer there.

However, the bar wasn't open tonight because Sebastian wanted to be alone. The bartender was there just to make drinks for him.

Sebastian seemed to have drunk quite a bit, and he shot her a cold look. "You're always making a fuss." He waved her away, signaling her to step aside. When he looked at Rosalie, his gaze softened considerably.
"Didn't you have something to tell me? Go ahead."
He downed the drink in his hand, placed the empty glass on the bar, and stood up. He then straightened out his suit and walked toward her. "I'm listening." He was always ready to listen to her.

Sebastian, as if she were watching her favorite couple. Suddenly she noticed how good they looked together. X
