Chapter 24
Even if her new company took off, Daphne knew that she wouldn’t survive in this industry as a woman with a tarnished reputation. In her past life, she’d already hurt Sebastian once because of
similar situation.
Now, given a second chance, she couldn’t let history repeat itself.
*Clean up the mess,” Wilson said, glancing at Coby. Then, he carefully wrapped his arm around
Yvonne and left the ward.
“Ms. Yeager, here’s my business card. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever want to discuss
anything” Coby, sensing the tension, wisely followed Wilson and Yvonne out.
Once they were gone. Sebastian walked over as if nothing had happened, casually inspecting her
IV drip “All done? How are you feeling?”
Daphne nodded “Much better.”
The anger had given her a bit of energy.
“Sorry about earlier. I didn’t mean to drag you into this mess.” She gave him an apologetic smile
Sebastian shrugged, unfazed, and skillfully pulled the needle out of her arm. “It’s no trouble. I’m just handling some annoying people.
Daphne raised an eyebrow, surprised. “You know how to handle needles?”
“Yeah, I learned a little from my grandfather,” Sebastian replied nonchalantly. “But seriously, you’re something else. Destroying Wilson’s house like that?”
Sebastian’s focus was always on the weirdest things. He wasn’t fazed by the false accusations against them or the photo Wilson had used to threaten them. What mattered to him was Daphne’s IV and the fact that she had gone and destroyed Wilson’s property.
“Let that bitch live in my house? I’d rather destroy.” Daphne muttered, disgusted She wasn’t about to let them take advantage of her, even if it meant losing out in the process.
“Oh, by the way, one of my guys just sent me a photo of Zane Take a look
Sebastian handed her his phone When she opened the photo, Daphne couldn’t help but snort The guy looked like a troublemaker, with a shifty expression and a face that screamed bad news.
Yvonne with her shallow mind, probably couldn’t come up with a more sophisticated plan. She’d seed someone close to her to handle this And that person seemed to have a strong connection with Yvonne
Just as she was analyzing the photo voices rang ou

“Daph! Are you okay? Why are you in the hospital?”
It was Ava and Wendy. They had heard the news and rushed over. Panic was evident in their
voices.
Daphne flashed them a reassuring smile and flexed her arm as if to show off her strength. “I’m fine, it’s just an IV drip. You two are worried for nothing. What are you doing here?”
She grinned, then pointed to Sebastian. “Say hello. This is Mr. Turner.”
Both Ava and Wendy froze, surprised, but quickly composed themselves. “Hello, Mr. Turner,” they said in unison.
Sebastian gave a slight nod, a small smile on his lips. “I’ve got to head out. I have business to take care of. But since your friends are here, I’ll let you catch up.”
After Sebastian left, Daphne filled them in on what had just happened.
Both Ava and Wendy didn’t hold back their anger toward Wilson and Yvonne, venting about the two of them. Of course, they couldn’t help but compliment Sebastian.
“Daph, I think Mr. Turner is great. Maybe you should give him a shot?” Ava teased, nudging Daphne’s arm
Wendy joined in, grinning. I agree. But hey, didn’t you ask him to look into the person spreading those rumors? Are there any updates?”
