True Love Deserves a Second Chance
Chapter 44 Writing "Good" in the Palm of My Hand

Joey's eyes turned red and she sniffled as she hurried to Harold's side.

Joey bent down next to Harold, her voice choked up. "What happened to you?" Harold chuckled, "What's wrong? Do I really look that old?"

"No, it's just that I'm not used to it. In my heart, you are still young and handsome."

"I'm already in my sixties, and far from being considered handsome. But look at you, why do you seem so worn out? Julian told me you've been facing some difficulties, so I came to see you."

Joey could no longer hold back the tears that had been welling up in her eyes.

She hadn't visited him once in three years, but when he heard she was in trouble, he personally rushed over to see her.

She didn't know how to repay such kindness.

Joey felt ashamed and lowered her head. "It's my fault. I made you worry."

The three of them, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, chatted happily.

Just then, Harold's phone rang. He looked at the caller ID, his eyes narrowing with a smile, and answered the call.

"You rascal."

The man on the other end teased, "Old man, you didn't even tell me you were coming to B City. Are you trying to make me mad?"

Harold took a sip of his drink and smiled. "You don't even show me any respect and you start arguing with me as soon as we meet. Let me tell you, why don't you come and see how well-behaved my apprentice is?" "Where are you? I'll come find you."

"Tropical Manor, room 808. Remember to bring me a box of mousse cake from Maxim's."

After hanging up, Harold raised his chin toward Joey and said, "I had someone buy the cake you love to eat."

Joey didn't pay much attention, thinking it was just something someone like Harold would do.

Half an hour later, the door of the private room was pushed open.

His expression was indifferent. The moment he saw Joey, his gaze only lingered on her for a brief moment before he looked away.

There was no sense of recognition in his eyes.

He walked over to Harold with long strides and said in a low voice, "You're still eating sweets at your age. Aren't you afraid of diabetes?" Harold took the cake from him and glared at Sebastian. "Can't I make a gesture of goodwill?"

Harold placed the cake in front of Joey and said with a smile, "Here, have some. It's your favorite."

Sebastian looked at Joey with an expressionless gaze.

She, too, acted as though she didn't recognize him at all. Since he entered the room, she had only given him a faint glance.

Sebastian couldn't help but curl his lips and ask, "And who are these two?"

"My two closed-door disciples. The one who stayed in Country F for three years became a top lawyer, and the other one was the renowned beauty of our R University Law School when she was studying. If Joey enters the legal world, she will definitely dominate it."

Sebastian nodded lightly and said casually, "R University does indeed produce talented individuals. My secretary also graduated from that school. What was her name again..."

He intentionally paused and looked toward Joey with a faint gaze. He just wanted to see what kind of reaction this woman would have.

Just as he was about to say Joey's name, he felt a sharp pinch on his thigh.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Sebastian's attractive lips. He instantly grasped the restless little hand in his palm, casually playing with it.

His voice also became slightly husky. "I forgot her name, but she's not bad."

Harold laughed triumphantly. "That's for sure. The students from our law school are top-notch no matter where they work. It's just a pity that my girl here chose the wrong person." Upon hearing this, Joey's body tensed. She was about to speak when Sebastian tightly held her wrist.

He lightly wrote a word on the palm of her hand.

'Obey.'
