Chapter 503 Accidentally Ending Up at Dashiell's House While Drunk
Seraphina headed to the restaurant Sebastian had booked.
In her mind, Sebastian wasn't usually the romantic type.
But tonight, he went all out, reserving an entire fancy restaurant and setting up a candlelit dinner.
They sat across from each other.
Seraphina flashed a beautiful smile and said, "I didn't get you a gift."
Sebastian smiled back, "Just having you here is the best gift. For a long time, I celebrated my birthdays alone. My only wish was to have someone to share cake and blow out candles with."
Seraphina felt a pang in her heart.
She was a pretty emotional person, easily moved by others.
Thinking of Sebastian being all alone before made her feel really sad.
She took his hand and promised, "From now on, I'll be with you forever."
"Okay." Sebastian smiled, trying to comfort her, "Now, I feel really happy. Maybe all the losses I went through were just to prepare me to meet you."
Seraphina couldn't help but laugh.
'Sebastian always knew how to make me happy, unlike Dashiell.' Thinking of Dashiell, her mood suddenly shifted.
Why was she thinking of that jerk Dashiell right now?
Just thinking about him ruined her mood.
Sebastian seemed to notice the change in her expression. He stood up and walked towards her.
Seraphina's heart started to race as she watched him.
Was he about to propose?
She just wanted to make love with Sebastian; she hadn't thought that far ahead.
Her heart was pounding.
She watched as Sebastian bowed elegantly and extended his hand. "Ms. Everhart, may I have this dance with the most beautiful girl in the world?"
Seraphina was stunned for a second.
So it was just a dance.
She gladly took his hand and walked to the side.
She didn't even realize why the thought of him proposing scared her a bit.
The restaurant was filled with lovely music.
They gently embraced and swayed to the rhythm.
They were very close.
Between adults, a small gesture could lead to more, especially in such an environment.
Seraphina wrapped her arms around Sebastian's neck and kissed him.
Sebastian was stunned for a second before slowly responding.
In the romantic setting, they were inseparable.
After the kiss, they were both slightly out of breath.
Seraphina's rosy lips moved close to his ear and whispered, "Your place or mine tonight?"
Sebastian couldn't possibly miss such an obvious hint.
But at that moment, Seraphina didn't feel his excitement, and she didn't feel the same anticipation.
He seemed frozen, causing her to frown.
She looked at the subtle changes in his expression with surprise.
She could clearly see the panic in his eyes.
So Sebastian didn't want to have sex with her?
Sebastian saw her look.
He forced himself to stay calm and led her back to the table, pretending he hadn't heard anything.
But Seraphina wasn't one to back down. The more she didn't get an answer, the more determined she became.
"Sebastian, do you know what I meant just now?" Seraphina made it clear.
Sebastian's throat moved slightly, and he said, "I'm afraid it might be bad for your health."
"Are you worried about my health, or do you just not like my body?" Seraphina was clearly upset.
Sebastian looked shocked and quickly said, "How could you think that? I could never dislike you."
"I had an abortion after being with another man. Don't all guys hate that?" Seraphina asked.
"Seraphina, don't say that. I never thought that way..."
"Then why haven't you tried to sleep with me since we got back together?" Seraphina interrupted angrily.
"I'm really worried it would be bad for your health."
"So you want me to get a doctor's note saying I'm good to go?" Seraphina's emotions were all over the place.
Honestly, every time things got heated between them, Sebastian always found an excuse to back off.
She didn't mind before.
But today, she had made it so clear, why was Sebastian still rejecting her?
"Seraphina, calm down." Sebastian looked really flustered.
"I can't!" Seraphina shouted. "I can't find any reason!"
"I really don't want to hurt you," Sebastian kept explaining. "Seraphina, all these years we've been together, I never slept with you, not because I didn't want to, but because I wanted to wait until we were married."
"I don't need your proposal now, I just want to have sex with you. I don't care if you marry me or not!" Seraphina shouted.
"Seraphina, I really can't do it. And you're angry now, you won't listen to what I'm saying. You need to calm down."
"How can I stay calm now?" Seraphina laughed sarcastically.
She had come this far, but Sebastian was still telling her to calm down.
"I'll take you home first. We can talk about this tomorrow."
"Just go." Seraphina said coldly.
Sebastian looked at her, stunned.
"Go, I need some time alone," Seraphina urged.
Sebastian's throat moved slightly.
In the end, he got up.
Seraphina's smile became more sarcastic.
"Seraphina, I'm doing this for our better future," Sebastian said, and left.
He left while Seraphina's face was blurred with tears.
Was it really for their better future?
Or did he just not want to touch her anymore?
Seraphina picked up the red wine in front of her and drank it all.
She waved for the waiter to bring some stronger alcohol and drank until she was drunk.
So Sebastian would rather let her drink herself to death than compromise and have sex with her.
She couldn't understand Sebastian anymore, and couldn't tell if he still loved her.
Seraphina left the restaurant in a daze.
She hailed a cab and gave an address to go back.
She thought maybe tomorrow she would figure it out.
The car arrived at the destination.
After the car arrived, Seraphina paid, staggered into the community, took the familiar route to the elevator, pressed the floor button, and entered the password.
Seraphina pushed the door open and kicked off her high heels.
Because of the heating, she took off her coat, revealing the sexy lace dress underneath, and maybe she thought the lace dress was a burden too, so she took it off as well.
Then she walked and undressed at the same time.
When she lay on the bed, she was completely naked.
Dashiell just looked at the clothes scattered all over his house, and at Seraphina, who was lying in his bedroom, drunk and unconscious!
