Remorse After Breaking Up

Steven was nearly frightened out of his wits when Kieran burst into a fit of rage.

He was the Shadowtiger clan's scion, after all. It would be a piece of cake for him to get rid of Steven, and no one would even dare to avenge him.

Steven called Lillian reluctantly. She might be important, but his life mattered more to him.

…

Lillian was thrilled after she hung up.

"Lillian, why are you so happy?" Evelyn asked, puzzled.

"Mr. Miller has agreed to work with us. He's requesting me to discuss our collaboration's details," Lillian exclaimed excitedly.

"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and go. Don't keep Mr. Miller waiting." Evelyn urged.

"I'll keep you company." Sebastian rose.

He had only met Andrew once but could tell at first glance that he was a menace. He couldn't trust Lillian to attend their meeting alone.

"Lillian's there for business. Why are you meddling? Are you trying to mess things up?" Evelyn hollered.

"I'll be fine on my own. Mr. Harris is with him upstairs as well. Don't worry," Lillian said.

"Alright, then. Call me if there's anything," Sebastian replied.

Lillian nodded and took the elevator to the top floor. A bodyguard led her to their room.

She immediately noticed something was off once she entered. "Mr. Harris, didn't you mention that Mr. Miller requested me? Where is he?"

"My dad has something to attend to. It'll do with just the both of us. Come have a seat." Kieran patted the spot next to him, gesturing for Lillian to sit beside him.

A rush of fury and terror washed through Lillian the moment she saw him. The urge to leave the room overwhelmed her, yet she steeled herself.

Determined to win the bid, she sat down.

However, she took a seat next to Steven instead. He seemed more reliable than Kieran.

Kieran was unfazed. She was bound to become his plaything once she set foot in here.

"Kieran, we're very serious about the project. We won't let you down as long as you choose us," Lillian began.

"Then show me how serious you are about it. Drink this." Kieran poured a glass of wine for her.

"My stomach isn't feeling well. I can't drink," Lillian politely refused. She was wary of him because of what happened last time.

Thanks to her wits, she managed a narrow escape when he drugged her back then. She wouldn't make the same mistake again.

"How about a glass of water?" Kieran snapped his fingers, and his bodyguard on standby immediately fetched a bottle of water. He opened it and poured some water for Lillian.

She'd been staring intently at him to prevent anyone from drugging her. She took a small sip of the water and put it down.

A devious grin flashed across Kieran's face. He had already instructed someone to drug the water.

Steven stood on the side the entire time. It wasn't that he didn't want to intervene—he didn't dare to.

The drug was potent. Even though Lillian only took a small sip, she already felt dizzy in less than a minute.

She shook her head, attempting to regain her senses, but the dizziness grew worse. Eventually, she lost consciousness and collapsed on the couch.

"Get out, all of you!" Kieran ordered all the bodyguards to leave before turning to Steven. "We're homies, right? So, it's only right for me to share her with you.

"Wait first. You'll have your turn once I'm done with her."

"Thanks, Kieran." Steven was seething, yet he didn't dare to show even an ounce of his anger.

Still, he was somewhat excited. He'd been coveting Lillian for ages and would finally get what he desired, albeit with Kieran going first.

Kieran rose and sauntered toward Lillian. As he drank in her exquisite features, lust immediately got the better of him.

"She's stunning. As expected of the belle of Ravenview. Oh yeah, you've yet to touch her, right?" Kieran spun around and asked Steven.

Steven shook his head, silently lamenting his missed opportunity. Lillian was still a virgin, yet Kieran would soon strip her virginity away. It was infuriating.

"In this case, she's probably still a virgin." Kieran's eyes lit up lecherously. His arms shot out to grab Lillian's clothes.

Just as he was about to rip her clothes apart, a loud crash resonated across the room.

The door came crashing down with a deafening noise. A figure darted in swiftly.

"Who are you?" Kieran was bewildered.

"Sebastian!" Steven was flabbergasted.

"Do you know him?" Kieran questioned, spiraling in turmoil.
