Chapter 582
Sebastian walked over, gently patted her shoulder and said, "Go wash up, Mrs. Bishop probably has breakfast ready for you." "It's for you. I'm just an afterthought!"
But she obediently went to the bathroom anyway.
When Sebastian came out from the room, he saw a man in his thirties, dressed in plain clothes, sitting on the living room chair.
As soon as he came out, the man's gaze was sizing him up.
Then the man stood up, and with a friendly smile said, "You must be Steph's boyfriend?"
Sebastian casually nodded, "Yes."
He would make some conversation with him for Mrs. Bishop's sake.
But he wouldn't be nice about it.
After all, he was the relative who once trampled on Stephanie's dignity. For him not to cuss him out was already being considerate of Mrs. Bishop.
"Steph has such good taste. You look really outstanding! I'm Steph's mother's younger brother. Steph is my beloved niece."
"Your beloved niece. And you slapped her face with fifty bucks?"
The smile on Sammy Bishop's face froze, "Steph told you this, huh..."
"Yes, she did. She said she'll never forget the moment her dignity was stomped on."
Sammy Bishop gave a bitter smile, "I was drunk at the time, lost control of my temper. She's stubborn, and I had to take care of the elders and two kids at home. She insisted on calling me selfish, not even caring about her own sister. I was furious, so I threw the money meant for the kids' tuition at her. I didn't expect it to hit her face. I regret it too."
Sebastian responded indifferently, "These words mean nothing to me. She's stubborn and she holds. grudges. If you really want to apologize, you better woo her yourself in the future!"
Having said that, he didn't want to continue the conversation and headed for the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Marilyn saw him and said with a smile, "You're up."
Sebastian nodded, "Yes."
Patty, all smiles, praised, "Wow, you're Steph's boyfriend! Marilyn, you're really lucky."
Marilyn laughed, "Maybe it's because I beat bad luck, so good luck came. Seb, this is Steph's relative."
Sebastian nodded at Patty, but didn't greet her.
Marilyn didn't care, saying, "He's just like that; don't mind him."
Patty managed an awkward smile,
"As

Faced with Sebastian's imposing presence, the two kids were a bit scared and didn't dare to move.
At the adults' urging, they shyly said, "Hello."
Sebastian nodded, "Mrs. Bishop, is breakfast ready?"
"It's ready."
Marilyn quickly put the breakfast on the tray.
Sebastian picked up the tray and walked out.
Just then, Stephanie finished washing up. She completely ignored Sammy Bishop in the living room, took the tray from Sebastian and said, "Let me do it; you be careful not to get your clothes dirty."
