As for what he looked like, Felicity didn’t see it. But as a medical student, she was very sensitive to the smell of medicinal
herbs.
The moment the car window was rolled down, she smelled a faint scent of herbs…
Felicity, who was well–versed in Medicine of the Ancients, naturally knew that people with long–term illnesses might be sensitive to light.
Jacob urged, “Mr. Sebastian, do you want to go see the boss first?”
The little boy was distracted and said to Felicity, “Miss, please wait for me. Don’t run around. I’ll be back soon.”
Felicity nodded.
The little boy hurriedly ran towards the car.
Jacob, who was left behind, handed her a card. “Miss Miller, thank you for saving Mr. Sebastian. This is a token of our gratitude. Please accept it.”
“Do you know that my surname is Miller? So, you know me.” Felicity smiled playfully, the corners of her eyes curving up. *You don’t seem to be thanking me, but rather eager to clear your ties with me.”
Jacob’s fingertips paused. “Miss Miller, you misunderstand.”
“I don’t care.” Felicity glanced at the little boy. “Tell him later that I left.”
As she finished speaking, she straightened her long leg, stood up from the steps, and left without any intention of looking back.
Jacob sighed in relief, afraid that this fake heiress who was driven away by the Walker family would pester Sebastian.
In the afterglow, Felicity was holding a black bag, her long dark hair neatly tied up with a wooden hairpin. The sunset immersed her in a halo. Her departing figure was cool and beautiful.
The man sitting in the Maybach glanced over, only to catch this scene. He touched the little boy’s head, his voice laced with amusement, “Is that the person who saved you?”
“That? Where?” The little boy straightened his small body and then became anxious, “Why did she leave? Jacob!”
Jacob came over and leaned down. “Mr. Sebastian.”
“I didn’t even get her contact information. She promised to wait for me.” The little boy’s eyes darkened, intimidatingly cold. “Did you drive her away?”
Jacob trembled. “I…”
In the entire Capital City, no one dared to provoke Sebastian.
He was different from other children. Despite being only four years old, he was very cunning. He was good at pretending and apathetic.
Only when the boss was present would Sebastian behave.
At other times, even his subordinates were afraid of him.
He never got close to anyone.
So seeing Sebastian’s interaction with Miss Miller earlier, Jacob was indeed surprised.
But remembering his duties, Jacob admitted it and explained, “Mr. Sebastian, this lady has a bad reputation. I was afraid

sne might nave ulterior motives for approaching you, so…”

“She doesn’t know me. What motive could she have?” The little boy looked more and more indifferent. “It’s because you didn’t take good care of me that I fainted on the side of the road and had heatstroke, if it weren’t for her, even if I wasn’t kidnapped, I would have died on the side of the road. You…”
“Sebastian Hartley.” The man in the back seat interrupted the little boy’s words. He sat there, and his black suit seemed tailor–made, without a single wrinkle. His pale and cold wrist was adorned with a string of red beads. He looked cold and alluring. “Don’t talk nonsense.”
The little boy knew Leo was angry, otherwise, Leo wouldn’t have called his full name. He pouted and threw himself into the man’s arms, his voice muffled, “Leo, I finally found a wife for you, but now it’s all gone. She must not like me anymore.”
Just now, he had pretended to be so obedient in front of that young lady.
The man sighed deeply, straightening the boy’s little face with his fingers. “You don’t have to worry about my marriage. Understand?”
As the man spoke, he looked up and signaled the driver to start the car.
Gradually, a captivating face appeared in the rear–view mirror. He had a tall nose, pale skin, and light lips, carrying a hint of sickness, clear and charming like porcelain jade.
Who else could possess such charm other than Leopold Hartley, the president of the Hartley Group who was renowned in Starling City?
