Chapter 37 Sebastian raised an eyebrow as he glanced at Leo . " Did you say thank you after receiving that pizza ? " " Thank you , Ms. Neal ." Valeria smiled . Not only was Leo quick to understand when he was in the wrong , but he was also kind - hearted . " I'm sorry , Selena , " he apologized . " I only pulled your hair because I thought it looked pretty and smelled nice . I won't do that again . " " It's alright . I shouldn't have clawed you either . " Valeria glanced at Leo . She never thought that the little boy who had pulled Selena's hair was actually Sebastian's nephew . Although she had never met Mallory before , she had to admit that genetics was an amazing thing . Perhaps it was all in her mind , but she felt like Leo and Selena had certain features that looked similar . Under the table , Sebastian stretched his long legs , causing them to brush against hers . Valeria lowered her head and glanced under the table . She had already moved her chair backward by quite a bit . Still , there was no reason for him to have done it on purpose . Perhaps she was just overthinking . Sebastian's long and slender legs , wrapped in high - quality clothing , had appeared in her line of sight . Hence , Valeria could only scoot back a little more . Sebastian didn't like eating fast food . He watched as Leo ate the pizza until his mouth was covered in oil , while Selena ate her slice delicately . Her fair complexion and beautiful eyes made her look extremely adorable . Perhaps it was because she would get sick frequently , Selena looked tiny . Taking a slice of pizza , she handed it to Valeria . " Mommy , I'll feed you . " Soon , the last slice of pizza was left in the box . Selena looked at Sebastian and asked , " Mr. Grant , do you want to eat some pizza ? This last slice is for you . " Leo's chubby hands immediately went to grab it . " Uncle Sebastian wouldn't want it . I'll eat it instead . " Reaching out , Sebastian swatted Leo's hand away . Then , he looked at Leo's oily hands with slight disgust , asking , " Who says I wouldn't want it ? " Then , he proceeded to snatch the pizza out of Leo's hand and took a bite . It surprisingly tasted nice . Chapter 37 " Uncle Sebastian , you never had this kind of stuff before … " Leo pouted as he looked at Sebastian sadly after not managing to eat the last slice . Not only had Sebastian eaten the pizza , but he even drank a cup of orange juice . Leo had his eyes on the orange juice . Whenever Sebastian brought Leo to such places for a meal , he would never have the drinks , leaving Leo to finish all the drinks . However , Sebastian ended up finishing the second cup . Leo's expression became much more aggrieved as he whined , " Uncle Sebastian … " " What's wrong ? " Sebastian asked as he pulled out a tissue and began wiping his fingers . Suddenly , Valeria felt like Sebastian seemed a bit childish . Hence , she couldn't help but smile lightly . It was a small one , but he had caught the corners of her lips lifting . She looked like a blooming flower , and there was a sense of tranquil beauty radiating off of her . Tightening his grip around the cup , Sebastian stared at her smile in a daze . Then , he ran his tongue across his teeth as he stared at Valeria's pink lips . He didn't even react when Leo rubbed his oily hands on his jacket . Once Valeria noticed that Selena was done eating , she grabbed Selena's hand and got up to leave . Turning to Leo , Selena waved . " Goodbye , Mr. Doctor . Goodbye , Leo . " As Valeria walked past him , Sebastian could sense a faint fragrance drifting in the air . It didn't smell like a type of perfume , but more like a natural body scent , soft and subtle . It almost felt tangible as the smell brushed past his cheek . Sebastian bit on his straw and drank the last of his orange juice . Then , his cunning eyes fell on Leo as he said , " Let's go . I'll send you to your grandma's house . " Still thinking about the cup of orange juice that he didn't get to drink , Leo began rubbing his hands together , suggesting , " Uncle Sebastian , let's buy a cup before we leave . I might get thirsty on my way back home . " Grabbing Leo by the back of his collar , Sebastian patted him on the shoulder . " No can do . We need to go now . Your mom already knows that you were caught pulling a girl's hair . You'd better go home so that Grandma will protect you . " " Uncle Sebastian , you've betrayed me ! " Leo wailed as he grabbed Sebastian by the sleeves . Sebastian's expression darkened as he looked at the two oily handprints . " Not only did I betray you , but I'm also planning to tell Mallory that you ate a lot of junk food today . " To help Leo lose weight , Mallory had been controlling the amount of junk food he ate . She would only reward him occasionally and instruct their chef to make a healthier version of any dishes he fancied . Chapter 37 Pushing the door open , Sebastian and Leo stepped out of the pizzeria . Lunchtime had passed , so there weren't too many people around . Only a few people remained standing at the school's entrance . Suddenly , not far off , a young panicked voice rang out . " Mommy , are you alright ? " Spin to Claim Your Surprise Reward !
