Chapter 152

Lillian’s decision to enter the hotel sparked outrage among the Smiths. They were worried about the repercussions of offending both Henry and the Walter family.

However, they were hesitant to follow Lillian inside without a direct orders from Henry. All they could do was vent their frustration by stomping their feet.

Upon entering the hotel, Lillian was prepared to use the Seraphic Tear Pendant to impersonate the Supreme One’s wife.

However, she was met with a scene beyond her wildest imagination. Henry’s men were placing the bodies of Benedict and his family into coffins. Lillian’s eyes widened in shock and disbelief. Hadn’t Henry been supposed to stand up for the Walters? Why had he executed them instead? Sebastian was equally surprised to see Lillian re–enter the hotel. Upon noticing her presence, Henry bellowed, “Who allowed you in here? Get out!” “How dare you speak to her that way? She is the Supreme’s wife. Who gave you the right to be rude to her?”

“Huh?” Henry was visibly shaken as he kneeled before Lillian and pleaded, “Please forgive me. I had no idea you were the Supreme’s wife. Please grant me mercy just this once.” Lillian realized that Sebastian had cleverly used her assumed identity to their advantage. Although she had been planning to use the same method, she felt slightly uncomfortable at his presumption.

Nevertheless, it was not the time for personal grievances.

Maintaining her composure, Lillian commanded, “You may rise.”

“Thank you, Supreme Lady.” Henry repeatedly bowed to show his profound gratitude.

In Sebastian’s presence, Henry, a mere city chief, was insignificant. His disrespect toward Lillian was sufficient reason to justify Sebastian ending his life without any contesting. “All right, I’ll leave you to handle the rest,” Sebastian commanded Henry before grasping Lillian’s hand and making their way to the exit. Hydra and the others trailed closely behind them.

Henry and his men said respectfully, “Farewell, Supreme One, Supreme Lady.”

Once they were gone, Henry finally allowed himself to breathe a sigh of relief.

A guard asked, “Mr. Higgins, is that man really the Supreme One?”

“Of course, who else could instill such fear in me?” Henry sneered.

“But isn’t the Supreme One rumored to be old and ugly?” another guard asked, puzzled.

“How could you believe in rumors? The Supreme One is a divine figure. He is not only incredibly powerful but is also skilled in many areas, including medicine and disguise. It’s likely that he once appeared as an old man, hence the rumors,” Henry explained with great reverence.

“What should we do about the coffins, Mr. Higgins?” another guard queried.

“These people dared to challenge the Supreme One and paid the price. Just replace a place and bury them,” Henry responded coldly.

The crowd was stunned to see Sebastian and Lillian walking out of the hotel hand–in–hand.

“He actually came out alive? How is that possible?”

“Mr. Higgins let him off? What’s happening?”

“Release my daughter!” Evelyn burst out in anger upon seeing Sebastian holding Lillian’s hand. She attempted to break them apart but became rooted to the spot when faced with Sebastian’s icy stare.

Although Evelyn despised Sebastian, she was acutely aware of his formidable nature and bad temper. Provoking him would lead to dire consequences.

Sebastian glared at Evelyn and the rest. He said coldly, “Let me warn all of you for the last time. Lillian’s first priority is to be my woman, and your daughter second. If you dare to harm her again, don’t expect any mercy from me.”

The Smiths were shocked and outraged by Sebastian’s threats, yet they had to suppress their anger.

Sebastian ignored them and led Lillian to the road, where a Bentley was waiting.

Hydra opened the door, and both Sebastian and Lillian slid into the backseat. Hydra then sat at the front, while the other members of the Supreme Pavilion got into the Rolls Royce that followed behind them.

The onlookers were left in shock. Just then, Henry stepped out, his guards trailing behind him with a coffin. Bradford hurried over to Henry and inquired, “Mr. Higgins, what happened? Why did you let that brat go?”
