In return, each man could guarantee that, in their relationship or any future marriage, Valeria would always remain ina position of advantage, never having to compromise.

These screened candidates were capable of providing her with unwavering emotional support throughout her life. Valeria slid her fingers across the screen as she looked through the profiles. Finally, she opened one of them, thinking Sebastian had lost his mind. He was actually introducing her to potential lovers. 'The hand gripping her wrist felt like a band of hot iron. Valeria reached the last page and casually pointed to the photo of a young man. He was a Haffard University graduate with university professors as parents.

His profile noted that he was willing to forgo having children of his own, He also guaranteed that he would remain loyal after marriage and treat Selena as his own. Valeria had no idea how Sebastian had managed to get these ---- mento agree to such terms. She only thought he had gone insane. This wasn't normal. Then, she looked at Calvin and mentioned, "I like them young. My current preference is for someone under 25 years old. Mr. Scott, [hope you will keep that age limit in mind when you look for future candidates." Calvin shuddered.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Sebastian's expression had already darkened. "I'll have this one. I'd like to meet this young man and get to know him. Mr. Grant, please arrange it right away." Valeria curved her lips at Sebastian. "Mr. Grant, can you let go now?" Sebastian's eyes instantly dimmed. His fingers trembled, and he finally let go.

Her gaze carried ---- ahint of mockery. "Mr. Lancaster, I'll make a move then. Have a pleasant meal." Reluctance crossed Zion's face. He hadn't expected to run into Valeria here.

He was about to find an excuse to chase after her when, from the corner of his vision, a cold, imposing figure approached. Zion immediately gave a slight bow. "Hello, Mr. Grant." Sebastian's steps faltered. His cold eyes swept over the man bowing so obsequiously before him. The air around him chilled instantly. Zion kept his head down, and his peripheral glance caught the suit slung over Sebastian's arm, along with a purse. Although it was a common mid-range luxury brand, his heart sank. It was Valeria's purse. The scarf tied to the bag's chain was light blue, her favorite color.

Zion had pursued Valeria for nearly a year, and he had noticed such details long ago. As it turned out, there was really something going on between Sebastian and Valeria. Calvin, seeing the man trembling before him, gave his shoulder a light pat. "Mr. Lancaster, enjoy your meal with your wife. In the future, don't mess with people you shouldn't.
