Chapter 776 Flirting and Bickering
"What do you mean?" Seb squinted his eyes upon hearing Susan's words.
Seeing his puzzled expression, Susan smirked and said, "I think she has a really nice figure."
"Did you go to the ward?" Seb suddenly grabbed her wrist.
"Ouch, you're hurting me," Susan exclaimed softly.
It was then that Seb realized he had lost his composure and loosened his grip on her wrist.
"I went to the ward to find you, and I saw that scene. It felt like I was catching you in the act. After thinking it over, I decided not to embarrass her too much, so I left," Susan said innocently.
Hearing this, Seb frowned. "Catching me in the act? It sounds like I did something wrong!"
Seeing his nervous look, Susan's lips curled into a smile.
Susan rarely saw him so nervous. Most of the time, he was calm and composed. It seemed he was afraid of being misunderstood, which made Susan quite happy.
By this time, the car had already stopped in front of the villa.
Seb saw the driver had gotten out and was coming around to open the door for him and Susan.
Seb pointed at Susan and said, "I'll deal with you when we get back!"
"This isn't my fault, is it?" Susan said innocently.
By this time, the driver had already opened the back door of the car.
Seb got out first, and as soon as Susan's foot touched the ground, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her out of the car!
"Can you be gentler? You're going to pull my arm off! Seb, stop it, okay?" Susan shouted as Seb dragged her toward the villa.
Seeing Susan's pleading look, Seb's lips curled into a faint smile, but his face remained stern.
Entering the foyer, Susan thought he would let go of her wrist, but he didn't even change his shoes and dragged her straight into the living room.
"We haven't changed our shoes yet!" Susan whispered.
By this time, the crystal chandelier in the living room was off, leaving only two dim wall lamps. Susan didn't dare to speak loudly because Hayden and Spring were probably asleep.
Seb ignored Susan and continued to drag her upstairs.
"Slow down!" Susan was wearing high heels, and it was hard to climb the stairs, especially with him pulling her so quickly.
Susan began to regret provoking Seb. Walking in high heels while being dragged was really uncomfortable!
Just as Susan's face twisted in pain, Seb unexpectedly stopped.
He looked down and glanced at Susan's high heels, frowning slightly.
Just when Susan thought he might show some compassion, Seb let go of her wrist, bent down, and scooped her up in his arms, then turned and walked upstairs!
Susan was suddenly lifted off the ground and spun around by him, making her feel dizzy immediately.
Looking down, the stairs seemed steep. In a panic, she wrapped her arms tightly around Seb's neck, afraid she might accidentally fall and get seriously injured.
It wasn't until Seb reached the second floor that Susan felt relieved.
"What are you doing? Put me down!" Susan protested loudly as they entered the master bedroom.
With a cold expression, Seb tossed Susan onto the large bed!
Susan wasn't hurt because the mattress was very bouncy, causing her to bounce up.
By this time, Seb had started taking off his cashmere coat.
"Why are you so petty? I just accidentally saw Cecilia taking off her top and throwing herself at you," Susan muttered as she took off her coat.
But Seb, full of anger, said, "You were spying! And then you lied about waiting for me at the hospital entrance. I'm lucky I kept my composure, or you'd have had the perfect trap set for me!"
Hearing this, Susan felt extremely wronged. "Cecilia was the one trying to trap you, not me!"
Seb took a step forward, staring at Susan sitting on the bed, and sneered, "You didn't trust my self-control, so you went to the hospital to check on me, right?"
Hearing this, Susan blushed.
Since he had seen through her, there was no point in denying it.
"You were gone for hours. What was I supposed to think? That you wouldn't be tempted by some young woman? I couldn't just sit at home and do nothing," Susan argued.
"Why didn't you come in then? It wasn't just to save her dignity, was it?" Seb's smirk was challenging.
"I..." Susan was at a loss for words.
The next moment, Seb pinched Susan's nose hard.
"What are you doing? It hurts!" Susan rubbed her nose, tears welling up.
"You know it hurts?" Seb glared at Susan.
Susan then teased with a smile, "I was just afraid of interrupting your good time. If you couldn't control yourself, you might say we have nothing to do with each other anymore, so I have no right to interfere, right?"
Hearing this, Seb became even more furious!
"Do you think I'm that kind of person? Haven't I seen enough women? Do you think I can't control myself? Ridiculous! Absolutely ridiculous!" Seb said angrily.
"Fine, you have great self-control. Happy now?" Susan said with a laugh.
At this moment, Seb suddenly realized and said, "I get it. You were setting me up, weren't you? If I had slipped up today, you'd have something on me, and you could use it against me forever, right?"
With that, Seb grabbed Susan's arm.
Seeing his fierce look, Susan quickly backed away and said, "I admit, I wanted to see your reaction, but what good would that do? I can't really use it against you."
"Can't use it against me? You could use it as a reason to leave me or to always have one up on me, making me lose face. How can you play such games?" Seb's tone was a mix of incredulity and hurt as he pulled her close.
"It wasn't me who made Cecilia take off her clothes to seduce you, you..." Susan didn't finish her sentence.
