Chapter 171 

Lillian opened her eyes and saw a broad back that surprised her. 

Rumor had it that the Supreme One was well past his prime, but the man before her stood tall with thick, black hair, showing no signs of an elderly man. 

However, she didn’t think much about it since she couldn’t see his face. 

Sebastian didn’t linger. He stepped forward and walked to the entrance to leace. 

“Supreme One, please wait!” Lillian hurriedly followed him. 

“What is it?” Sebastian’s voice was cold and slightly hoarse. He was deliberately disguising his voice to prevent Lillian from recognizing him. 

“Thank you for saving my life!” Lillian quickly expressed her gratitude 

“How do you wish to thank me? Sebastian asked as if prompted by some mischiet 

Liban was taken aback by the question. She found it hard to believe that the Supreme One, the wealthiest man in the world, would require any form of gratitude. 

With all his riches, he lacked nothing. Hence, it was difficult for her to comprehend how any token of thanks could possibly match his status. 

“I know you have everything, Supreme One. I don’t know how to thank you.” 

“I find you quite interesting. If you truly wish to thank me, devote yourself to me,” Sebastian said 

“What?” Lillian was stunned. 

dearnestly. 

She’d never imagined the Supreme One would make such a demand. She panicked immediately. “I’m flatteredby your favor, Supreme One, but I’m already married. I cannot accept 

this.” 

Countless women dreamed to be one of the Supreme One’s mistresses. Lillian felt a fleeting thrill at the thought of becoming the Supreme One’s woman, which would elevate her to the heights of society and benefither family. 

But upon calming down, she declined. First, she wasn’t someone swayed by vanity. Although the Supreme One was impressive, he was still a stranger for her. 

Another significant reason was her marriage. Although her relationship with Sebastian was merely in name thus far, she didn’t want to be unfaithful 1 

Sebastian’s lips curled into a slight smile. “Let’s go. I’ll have someone take you back.” 

Suddenly, Lillian felt a sense of familiarity with the man before her. It made her quicken her steps. She really wanted to see what the Supreme One looked like. 

However, Sebastian moved faster and vanished from the warehouse before Lillian could catch up. By the time Lillian rushed out, Sebastian had disappeared without a trace. Natalie approached her, saying, “Ms. Smith, the Supreme One has instructed me to take you home. Please get in the car. 

Before Sebastian’s return, the Supreme Pavilion’s intelligence department had already located this place. 

Cyclops had also arrived promptly with his guards and laid an ambush nearby. 

But since the situation inside had been unclear, they hadn’t dared to act rashly. Fortunately, Sebastian had returned in time to prevent any mishap. 

Inside Phoenix Corporation’s office, Hydra knelt on the ground as soon as she entered. “I falled to protect Ms. Smith, Please punish me, Supreme One!” 

“How did Hicks capture you? He’s no match for you,” Sebastian asked, puzzled. 

Hydra’s face showed shame. “I didn’t expect him to betray us, and be caught me off guard with a sneak atrick.” 

Sebastian helped her up and gave her a pill Be more careful in the future. I don’t want this to ever happen again. Go home and recover.” 

“I’ll be taking my leave!” Hydra left 

Shortly after Hydra’s departure, Natalie returned. “Mr. Wilder, I have safely dropped Ms. Smith oft at home.” 

Sebastian nodded and asked, “Is there any news of Queen Bee?”
