Spoiled by the Silver Fox

"Ah? You're asking about the injury on my face? Psshh, this scratch is nothing. I've been getting into fights since I was a kid. No biggie!"

"Geez, you were that violent when you were a kid?"

"What do you mean 'violent'? If someone bullied me, of course I'd fight back! And if someone messed with my mom, as her daughter, I had to protect her!"

"Yeah, that's true."

Too bad.

He also had a mother he wanted to protect.

But it was that woman who hurt him the most.

"By the way, my mom... Silver Fox, can you cover for me these next few days and tell my mom that I'm hanging out with you in the afternoons? Otherwise, she'll find out about my injury, and she'll definitely scold me."

Sebastian said indifferently, "Sorry, I can't."

"Please, Silver Fox! You're the best! You protected me tonight, so why wouldn't you want to help with this little thing?"

"No."

Stephanie puffed up in anger, "Why not?!"

Sebastian replied seriously, "I don't like lying to people!"

Stephanie thought: Oh, give me a break! You're messing around with someone else's wife, and you don't even have the guts to admit it? You hate lying to people? Who would believe that?Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

"I don't believe you, Silver Fox. Can you tell the truth?"

"I want to see you get beaten up."

Stephanie was speechless.

Just as she started to have a good opinion of him, it vanished in an instant.

In the end Sebastian didn't help Stephanie cover up the truth, and while Stephanie pretended to be. afraid of her mom hitting her, she was more concerned about ber mem getting upset.

The doctor said her mom shouldn't

be frustrated and needed to maintain a good mood. That way, her condition could stabilize temporarily. Once she found a suitable kidney donor, her health would recover after the transplant, and she could live like a normal person again.

Out of options, Stephanie had to lie to her mom, saying that her childhood friend Gillian Owens invited her to hang out at her school. Marilyn Bishop knew Gillian - she was friends with her daughter, and before she fell sick, she would sometimes sleep over at their house.

After she fell ill, Gillian visited her a couple of times. However, being a college student now, she didn't have as much time to spend with Steph. When Marilyn thought about how the kids Steph's age were already in college, and how Steph's education was delayed because of her illness, she felt terrible.

On the phone, she told Stephanie to have fun and not worry about her, assuring her that she'd take care of herself.

Stephanie finally relaxed and went straight to the Center Stage Academy, where Gillian was studying acting.

It was a dream both girls had since they were little - to become famous stars and act with their idols.

Now, Gillian was getting closer to her dream, while Steph was getting further away...

Gillian and her classmates were

eating lunch at the school cafeteria

when she received a text from Stephanie. She immediately jumped up, leaving half her meal untouched and sprinted to meet her at the school entrance.

The two girls hadn't seen each other in a while, so Gillian leaped into Stephanie's arms as soon as they met.

Stephanie caught her, lifting her up effortlessly. "Steph, my Steph! You're finally coming to see me!"

Stephanie grinned, "Well, I'm here now, aren't I? Geez, you've gained some weight, huh?"

"No way! I've grown taller!"

To prove it, Gillian wriggled out of her arms, twirled around on the ground, and said, "See? I'm so tall now! Hey shortie, why don'tcha call me 'big sis'?"
