Chapter 455: Chapter 455: Miss Kensington Is Pregnant!
"Master Blackwood, I’m not asking you to definitely give me a title, but you shouldn’t deny all of this."
Claire Crowley spoke, crying pitifully, tears cascading like blossoms in the rain.
Sebastian Blackwood’s deep, dark eyes fell on that scarlet shade, his thin lips nearly pressed into a straight line.
"Hah."
After a moment, he laughed coldly, "Claire Crowley, there’s surveillance here."
Whether Sebastian and Claire had any relationship could be checked easily.
Claire’s expression was slightly stiff from crying, but soon she began to cry even more sorrowfully.
"Master Blackwood, it’s good to have surveillance, you can check, I absolutely didn’t lie to deceive you."
She spoke with conviction, looking entirely unafraid.
In reality, Claire was terrified inside.
She was gambling, betting there were no cameras in Sebastian’s room.
As the mayor’s daughter, she had interacted quite a lot with Veridia’s upper class, and they all shared one trait: they didn’t like being monitored by others.
So apart from work places, there were generally no cameras in private settings.
Claire speculated that Sebastian, as one of Celestia’s top elites, was even less likely to have surveillance installed in his regular hotel suite.
Upon hearing this, Sebastian’s sharply defined brows furrowed slightly.
The earlier remark was indeed a test for Claire, yet her temperament didn’t show a hint of guilt.
However...
Sebastian sneered, "Get out."
He knew himself well, even if he was a bastard, he wouldn’t lay a finger on a woman he found completely unattractive.
Besides, it seemed his body only reacted to Ivy Kensington, Claire didn’t have what it took to end up in his bed.
Upon hearing this, Claire’s tense heart relaxed slightly, it seemed there really wasn’t any surveillance here!
If that’s the case, even if Sebastian doesn’t believe her, he can’t prove he hasn’t touched her...
Her eyes shifted slightly, and Claire adopted a retreating strategy, saying, "Master Blackwood, I’m leaving. I won’t tell anyone about this."
Shortly after Claire left, Owen Rhodes arrived with a doctor.
"Master Blackwood, I just saw Miss Kensington."
While the doctor was tending to Sebastian’s wound, Owen casually mentioned.
Ivy was right downstairs at that time, he greeted her, but she ignored him.
Recalling Ivy’s call earlier, asking him about Sebastian’s whereabouts, Owen continued, "Master Blackwood, I think Miss Kensington has something important to discuss with you. Moreover, on the private island, Miss Kensington probably didn’t mean to hurt you with the hairpin."
Owen could see that Ivy cared about Sebastian.
However, there were too many misunderstandings between them, preventing them from truly connecting with each other’s hearts.
Thinking about this, Owen added, "Master Blackwood, I believe you should have a good talk with Miss Kensington, she likes you."
Like?
This word made Sebastian mockingly curl his lips.
That woman, with such a ruthless heart, how could she possibly like him, she’s clearly been deceiving him all along.
Though, remembering the previous encounter at the hospital, Sebastian’s brow furrowed slightly, "Check why she went to the hospital."
During the more than half month on the private island, he had ensured she was well taken care of, and she hadn’t been hurt at all.
Once she returned, she went to the hospital, her complexion didn’t look good at all, is it possible she’s injured somewhere?
A feeling of frustration welled up within Sebastian.
He had vowed never to concern himself with Ivy Kensington’s fate again, yet seeing her discomfort, he couldn’t help but feel worried.
Owen went to investigate and quickly returned, looking shocked.
"Master Blackwood, Miss Kensington is pregnant!"
