Married to the COLD CEO

CHAPTER 19 - THE OUTCOME OF HIS FEAR

Sebastian patiently waited at the lobby, it was the least he can do for Theresa, rather than his usual complains of getting to wait beyond 5 minutes, after Theresa defended him earlier in front of their parents.

As he was busy browsing through his mobile, from the view of his peripheral vision, he was able to see a woman walking alone towards him with a single luggage in her hand.

He then stood up and asked one of his guard to take the things from her.

“Going back alone?” Sebastian suddenly asked indifferently.

“Yes, Emily and the team went ahead earlier, while Cindy stayed. I think we don't need that much convoys since your team is still with you.”

Sebastian nodded in agreement and answered. “No wonder Rupert requested to stay as well.” Sebastian answered as he smirked. “You can actually stay if you want to, you don't have to come with me.”

“I have made up my mind already, I will be going back with you tonight.”

Theresa had long thought about it after their conversation at the mini hill earlier, that she will try her best to be with Sebastian and to support him in order to hopefully win his heart back.

Sebastian raised a brow at Theresa and answered. “If that' what you want then let’s go, the plane is already waiting for us.”

As they headed to the parked car, while Theresa followed close behind Sebastian, a man running suddenly shouted and called for Theresa’s name.

“Theresa! Theresa wait!” Wyatt shouted as Theresa and Sebastian looked back.

“Wyatt, you are here?” Theresa asked as Sebastian’s mood suddenly changed sour at the sight of his brother going after Theresa despite his warnings to him.

“This hard headed brat!” Sebastian thought angrily as he moved closer to Theresa.

“Of course! I can’t miss to see you all dolled up today. You are indeed very beautiful Theresa.” Wyatt remarked playfully as Theresa smiled up a bit but it wasn’t going very well with Sebastian.

“Wyatt, we need to leave already.” Sebastian suddenly spoke and glanced at Theresa and added. “Theresa let’s go.”

Theresa nodded and looked at Wyatt as she smiled. “Thank you for coming today Wyatt but we have to leave already.”

As Wyatt was about to say something, Sebastian suddenly interrupted as he gestured for Theresa to go ahead inside the car in which Theresa obliged.

“Bye Wyatt, see you next time!” Theresa spoke as she waved goodbye at Wyatt and headed directly to the car.

“I’ll see you next time for sure!” Wyatt answered as he smirked at Sebastian.

The moment Theresa got in, Sebastian immediately glared at Wyatt.

“I told you to stay away from her, and yet you still have the guts to come up to her in front of me!”

“Jealous? You can’t keep me away from her brother. I will always find her!"

“Remember, she is my wife!” Sebastian angrily answered Wyatt.

“Yes, for now. but soon she will be mine.” Wyatt retaliated while smirking.

“I will make sure that will never happen!” Sebastian answered as he left and went inside the car.

“You think so highly of yourself. Yes Theresa loves and adored you, but that will not last long anymore. With the way you have been treating her. I will show her what it’s truly like to be loved back.” Wyatt thought to himself as he smiled at the leaving car.

------------------------------------

Inside the private plane, Theresa and Sebastian where inside the private cabin while Emily and their personal guards were on the other side.

While Sebastian sat opposite to Theresa as he read through some documents, Theresa have been lost in her thoughts as she has been meaning to ask some questions to Sebastian.

So after some long thoughts Theresa gathered up herself and tried to ask him the things she has been pondering for some time already.

“Sebastian?”

Sebastian looked at her and raised a brow.

“Can I ask you something?”

“Go ahead.” Sebastian answered as he continued to look through the documents he had on his hand.

“Earlier? The song, the dress-“

But before Theresa could even finish her question for him, Sebastian answered her back.

“It’s just a coincidence. Evrything. Don’t over think.”

Theresa felt bad for the way Sebastian answered, but did not asked or say any further so not to anger Sebastian more. Instead she just nodded and kept quiet.

She was supposed to read a book to keep her mind busy, but since it’s just going to be a short flight she just decided to sit still while she look at the darkness outside.

“Coincidence? But why is it I feel like it was a very familiar song. And the details, everything was what I had dreamt off. He is the only person I shared those too ” Theresa thought as she sighed softly.

“But yes, how can he have time to participate in the wedding preparation when in fact I haven’t even seen him in months. He must be right then, I was just overthinking and feeling hopeful with all these things.” Theresa added in her thoughts.

----------------------------------------

After a few more minutes along the flight, they finally have arrived in Nation A.

The car ride was more quiet than the plane ride itself. After a very long day, Theresa somehow felt very tired as she closed her eyes to rest, but not long after she finally fell into a deep slumber just before they have arrived in Sebastian’s house.

Sebastian took a glance at Theresa and immediately noticed that she was fast asleep already. He then took off his blazer and placed it on top of her, since it was a bit cold because of the gloomy weather outside.

Sebastian could not help but fell for Theresa more at the sight of her very near him. “I’m sorry my Theresa, but ‘we’ just can’t be. If only I could change that, I would show you how much I love you. But for now, let me just watch over you in secret. You can't fall for me any deeper, it will only hurt you even more.” Sebastian thought as he sighed.

As soon as they arrive in Sebastian’s house, Emily who arrived a bit ahead of them and some of Sebastian’s house help were patiently waiting for them outside.

The moment Sebastian got off the car, Emily immediately saw Theresa was still asleep.

“Sir, let me wake up Ms. Theresa.” Emily suggested as he looked at Sebastian.

“No need, I will carry her. You may now go home. Just come over later this morning.” Sebastian instructed as he slowly got back in the car to carry Theresa.

Emily was somehow taken aback with Sebastian's kind gesture. Emily was used to following Theresa around for her needs especially when Theresa insists in seeing or going over to Sebastian. So when Sebastian said those things, it shocked her and instead of clarifyingshe did not say anything more and just nodded and left.

As Sebastian was carrying Theresa going to their bedroom one of the house help approached him in a hurry and asked a question that ignited his temper.

“Sir, should we prepare the guest room for Ms. Theresa?”

Sebastian stopped in his steps and gave a cold stare at the house help as Mr. Hank Jones the butler hurriedly approached.

“Apologies Mr. Sebastian-“ But before Mr. Jones could explain Sebastian angrily responded.

“Next time Hank, inform them who Theresa is! She is not a guest here!" Sebastian paused and glanced at everybody else. “She is my wife and she must be treated with full respect and attention! Do I make myself clear?!” Sebastian added as everyone nodded and bowed in agreement.

Just as Sebastian finished his piece, he immediately left while carrying Theresa in his hand as she quietly snuggled herself in his chest.

The moment Sebastian was nowhere in sight, everyone then hurdled around Mr. Jones in fear of the worst.

“Mr. Jones I’m sorry, it’s just that I hear differently from one of Mr. Sebastian’s guards that he feel sorry for Ms. Theresa because Mr. Sebastian seems to be neglecting and pushing her away. I thought he wouldn’t want to be near her, but why does it seemed he cared for her so much this time?” asked the house help who was reprimanded as everyone agreed in unison.

“That’s what you all get for gossiping about our boss! Well, there are just some things Mr. Sebastian only can answer. But I can only tell you all 1 thing, he means it when he said to respect Ms. Theresa and give her the much attention she needs. She might be his wife but she is also the sole Heiress of the richest family in this continent, we don’t want to offend her right?”

Hearing Mr. Jones answer suddenly gave shrills to everyone as it dawned to all of them who she really is.

Seeing the scare in everyone’s face Mr. Jones added. “As rich and luxurious Ms. Theresa might be, rest assured and I can guarantee all of you she is the kindest rich lady I know in my entire years of Serving the Smith family. Now, please let’s all call it a day.”

Everyone then started to calm down when Mr. Jones said those things, while everyone left Mr. Jones looked back to where Sebastian left.

“What happen to you Sebastian, why are you hurting the only woman you loved and cared for? I hope this marriage will bring you back to your senses.” Mr. Jones thought to himself as he sighed of what Sebastian has become- slowly becoming like his dad.
