The Billionaire's Last Obsession series 220 Summary Sebastian holds Lillian tightly, apologizing for making her worry and promising it won't happen again. He deeply understands the fear she felt when she bravely searched for him in the rainforest, concealing her terror until she finally broke down in the cave. His heart aches with pain and fierce protectiveness, knowing how much she has endured despite her young age. Lillian clings to Sebastian, expressing that as long as he is safe and alive, nothing else matters.
She promises to find a way to bring him back no matter how dangerous things get, understanding his responsibilities and not wanting to hold him back. Sebastian responds tenderly, reassuring her with a quiet promise. Later, Lillian relaxes in the garden of Sebastian's luxurious estate, taking in the grandeur of his world-an opulent castle with expansive grounds, a pool, golf course, shooting range, and fields of lavender. She realizes just how powerful Sebastian is, feeling a mix of awe and determination to grow stronger so she can stand beside him in the future.
As she rests peacefully, Sebastian watches her from the study upstairs, a rare gentle smile on his face. Foster, Sebastian's aide, observes the unusual softness in his master's demeanor and recalls the moment Lillian was found in the rainforest. Sebastian's mood darkens as he orders swift retaliation against those who ambushed Lillian-the Aurus family is to be wiped out completely, and the Claria family given an ultimatum to hand over oil rights or face annihilation.
The room chills with the deadly seriousness of Sebastian's commands, signaling the fierce consequences for anyone who dares cross him. Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below Chapter 220 Austin Estate Sebastian tightened his arms around het , pulling her close , his deep , magnetic voice soft as he murmured . " I'm sorry . Lillian . I made you worry . It won't happen again . " He understood her fear . When Unno had told him how she'd charged into the rainforest without a second thought , steady and unflinching as she searched for him , he could hardly believe it .
He couldn't imagine how terrified she must have been , how every step must have been weighted with dread , yet she never showed it , she'd stayed calm , strong , until the moment in the cave when her strength finally cracked . Remembering that , Sebastian's heart clenched with a pain so sharp it was almost unbearable : the urge to burn the world down for her was overwhelming . ་ She was still so young , his little girl , someone who should've been living the carefree life of a girl in her bloom , lighthearted , untouched by fear or pain .
Instead , she had endured far too much , things no one her age should have had to face . It took a strength far beyond her years to have made it here , to him . Lillian clung to his waist , her voice thick , trembling with emotion , " It's alright ... as long as you're safe , nothing else matters . Promise me ... no matter how dangerous it gets , you'll stay alive . As long as you're alive , I'll find a way to bring you back . " She knew there were things Sebastian had to do , responsibilities she couldn't change ; the last thing she wanted was to hold him back .

Hearing the quiet plea in her voice , Sebastian's chest ached ; his arms tightened around her as his hand smoothed over her hair , his tone low and tender . " Alright ." Sunlight streamed through the floor - to - ceiling windows , spilling warmth across the sprawling European- style bed . Two figures lay entwined , holding each other close ; in that moment , they were each other's solace , their hearts finally opening without reservation .
Later , Lillian stretched out on a lounger in the garden , the sun warming her skin as she took in the breathtaking view of the estate , Sebastian's world . The white walls and black roof of the castle gleamed in the light , its bold , lavish Murican architecture impossible to ignore . There was nothing modest about it ; luxury dripped from every line , every corner . A circular fountain sparkled in the front , surrounded by manicured lawns and carefully curated greenery . The grounds stretched wide - three , maybe four football fields in size .
There was a pool ; a golf course ; a shooting range ; a wine cellar - everything imaginable , everything opulent . Fields of lavender swayed gently with the breeze , filling the air with a soft , intoxicating fragrance . Taking it all in , Lillian finally grasped - just how powerful Sebastian truly was ; it was a height she couldn't even dream of reaching yet . For a brief moment , the realization stung . But that's okay , Mr. Whitmore is older ; by the time I've grown stronger , I'll stand beside him , too .
That thought settled her heart , and she tilted her head back , letting the sun lull her into a light , peaceful doze while Sunny darted joyfully across the sprawling lawn . 1/0 On the second floor , in the study , Sebastian stood at the window , gaze fixed on the girl below . She lay on the lounger in a flowing white sundress that trailed like water , delicate embroidery of deep - blue flowers dancing at the hem ; the breeze teased the fabric , making it ripple like waves Even from a distance , just looking at her filled him with a quiet , undeniable warmth . Behind him .
Foster stood silently , eyes flicking between his master and the soft smile curving the man's lips . It was still a strange sight , seeing that expression - so gentle , so unguarded . But he knew exactly who Sebastian was watching , only Ms. Sinclair could draw that kind of smile from him . And now , Foster finally understood why his master was so deeply taken with her . He could still remember the moment they'd found them in the cave - how this slip of a girl had somehow tracked Sebastian down in the endless expanse of the rainforest .
Even the team of trained operatives had been humbled by it Sebastian finally drew his gaze back from the window , his expression sharpening as he turned to Foster . " Has Unno found the ones who ambushed Lillian ? " Just recalling the report of what had happened made his blood run cold . If he hadn't ordered Unno to shadow her , hadn't ensured someone was there in secret to protect her , the consequences didn't bear thinking about . That kind of risk - never again . " We're still investigating , " Foster replied respectfully . Sebastian's eyes darkened , a chill creeping into his voice .
" Make it fast . The Aurus family - wipe them out completely . I don't want to hear a single plea for mercy ." His tone turned lethal , sharp enough to freeze the air . " And tell the Claria family , they have two days to hand over the oil exploration rights in Siana . Two days . If those rights aren't transferred to the Imperial Consortium by then , the Claria family will cease to exist . " The room seemed to drop a few degrees with the icy finality of his words . " Yes , sir ," Foster said quickly , inclining his head . " I'll see to it right away .
" Without another word , he left the study, his footsteps brisk and sure . The audacity of the Aurus family , to lay hands on his master , had been shocking enough . As for the Claria family , they might not have orchestrated the ambush , but they'd been involved . There would be no walking away from this unscathed ; they'd pay dearly , stripped to the bone , until the fire of Sebastian's wrath was finally appeased .
