The Billionaire's Last Obsession series 87 Summary Lilian and Sunny are having a tense moment as Sunny accuses Lilian of lying about taking him out to play. Lilian explains that since arriving at Sandy River, she hasn't had time to rest because Sunny insisted on tagging along. Despite her frustration, she agrees to stay with him but warns him not to wander off. Sunny confidently assures her he won't get lost and goes off to play on his own. Suddenly, Lilian receives a call from Sebastian, whose voice stirs deep emotions in her.
They share a tender exchange where Sebastian reveals he misses her and wants to know where she is to protect her from past pain. Lilian admits her feelings and asks him to promise to be good to her, to which Sebastian responds with a heartfelt vow of loyalty and protection. This conversation leaves Lilian feeling a complex mix of hope, longing, and vulnerability. The next morning in Sandy River, Lilian plans to return home but decides to spend the day exploring the city with Sunny.
They visit the local shops, eventually arriving at Rainbow Bridge Plaza, where Sunny becomes fascinated with a sparkling ring in a jewelry store. As Lilian prepares to buy it for him, a wealthy, entitled woman abruptly claims the ring, leading to a confrontation. Lilian challenges the woman's claim, pointing out the store's security cameras and refusing to back down. The woman's companion, Garrett, the general manager of Skycorp, tries to charm Lilian, but she remains uninterested. The situation escalates when the woman lashes out physically, accidentally slapping Garrett instead of Lilian.
Despite the chaos, Lilian calmly pays for the ring and leaves the store, unshaken by the drama behind her. Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below Lilian had no clue what was unfolding just beyond the door. At that moment, her entire focus was locked in a silent battle of wills with Sunny. "You're such a liar," Sunny grumbled, his voice thick with frustration. "You promised you'd take me out to play. But you didn't! You lied to me!" Lilian lay back on the bed, her fingers scrolling lazily over her phone screen as she answered without looking up.
"I told you to stay home, but you insisted on tagging along to Sandy River. Since we arrived, I haven't had a single moment to rest. How exactly am I supposed to take you out now?" Sunny let out a disgruntled huff, sprawling out beside her with a pout. "Then don't shove me off with that dumb mosquito. I want to stay with you." Lilian gave a slow nod. "Fine. But don't wander off. If you get lost, I'm flying back without you-and I'm not coming to find you." "Hmph! Like I'd ever get lost," Sunny shot back with a proud smirk.
Ignoring her after that, he turned away and scampered off to play by himself. Just then, Lilian's phone buzzed. An unknown number flashed on the screen. She answered cautiously. "Hello? Who's this?" "Lilian, it's me." Sebastian's deep, magnetic voice flowed through the line, sending a sudden flutter through her chest. For a brief moment, it felt as though he was whispering right into her ear again, just like the day he held her close. "Why are you so quiet?" Sebastian asked, his rich tone laced with curiosity. "Nothing... it's just so late.
Why aren't you resting yet?" she replied softly, her voice clear but tender. Hearing her voice, Sebastian's dark eyes softened, even though she couldn't see him. "Work isn't finished yet. I missed you... I just wanted to hear your voice. What about you? Did you miss me?" A warm blush crept over Lilian's cheeks instantly. She stammered awkwardly, "I-I who said I missed you?" Sebastian chuckled lowly, clearly amused by her bashfulness. "Sebastian! Stop laughing or I'm hanging up!" she snapped, flustered but unable to hide her smile.
Suppressing his amusement, he asked, "Lilian, when are you coming back?" She hesitated, raising an eyebrow. "Sebastian, how do you know I'm not in Solara? Are you tracking me?" "Lilian, you mean more to me than my own life. I need to know where you are. I don't want what happened last time to ever happen again. I won't interfere with your life, but at least let me know where you are." His words sent a comforting warmth flooding through her veins. A complicated swirl of emotions filled her chest-hope, longing, fear, and something deeper. She realized she could no longer say no to him.

No matter the pain she'd endured before, she had fallen for Sebastian completely, caught in the web he'd woven around her heart. "Sebastian... will you promise to be good to me for the rest of your life?" His voice was steady, unwavering. "Lilian, I, Sebastian, would rather betray the whole world than ever betray you. You've become my weakness, and I will do everything in my power to protect you and ensure your life is filled with peace and happiness." Morning in Sandy River carried the fresh scent of dew and new beginnings.
Lilian had planned to return home today, but after Sunny's persistent begging, she decided to spend the day showing him around the city. After all, visits here were rare, and she wanted to make the most of it. It was still early when she made her way downstairs. The house was quiet, empty of anyone else. After a simple breakfast, she stepped outside into the crisp morning air. For once, she had a moment to breathe and unwind.
She boarded the bus into town, noting how Sandy River still hadn't fully blossomed-the housing prices remained reasonable, and the town retained a charming, unspoiled feel. Thinking ahead, she had already asked Karina to research which real estate companies owned the undeveloped land in the area. It was clear the city would grow rapidly in the coming years, and she wanted to be prepared. With that task in motion, she turned her attention back to Sunny, who was eagerly pulling her along as they browsed the shops. Eventually, their wandering brought them to Rainbow Bridge Plaza.
The moment they stepped into the bustling mall, Sunny took off like a little whirlwind, darting through the corridors until he stopped abruptly in front of a sparkling jewelry store. He called out to Lilian, eyes wide with excitement. She trudged over, gently poking his cheek. "You're supposed to be my little fox. What are you doing staring at a jewelry store?" "I want it. I want it," he whined, his gaze locked on a glittering display. With a resigned sigh, Lilian followed him inside. The little fox seemed unusually obsessed with diamonds, barking excitedly at a particular ring.
She asked the clerk to bring out the ring Sunny had fixated on. Holding it carefully in her hand, she studied the delicate craftsmanship while Sunny nudged her repeatedly. "That one! I like that one! I want it!" Just as she reached for her wallet, a hand suddenly snatched the ring away. "Baby, I want this one," a woman's sugary voice purred. Lilian turned to see a tall, elegant woman clinging possessively to a man's arm, holding up the ring like a prize. The man looked like a stereotypical nouveau riche type. "Sure, baby. Whatever you want, you get." The woman smiled coyly.
"I knew you loved me best." Then she turned to the clerk. "Wrap it up for me, thanks." The clerk looked utterly mortified. Lilian strode forward and yanked the ring from the woman's grasp. "I believe I saw this first. Ever heard of 'first come, first served'?" The woman scowled, but the moment her eyes met Lilian's, a flicker of jealousy ignited. "Oh really? Who saw you? If no one witnessed it, then it's mine." Lilian let out a cool laugh. "This store has eight security cameras, all recording in 360 degrees. You really think your little stunt wasn't caught on video?
Use your brain for once." The woman's face darkened with fury. "So what? Do you even know who I am? How dare you try to take something I want!" "Oh?" Lilian raised an eyebrow, her tone light and mocking. "And who exactly are you? Enlighten me-I'd love to see how a so-called heiress behaves." The woman was momentarily speechless, caught between lashing out and keeping her composure. Flustered, she turned to the man. "Garrett, she's bullying me and you're just standing there!" Garrett had been staring at Lilian the entire time, stunned.
Despite his experience with women, he had never encountered anyone quite like her. The woman noticed his distracted gaze and exploded. "You little tramp! How dare you seduce someone else's boyfriend?" Her shrill voice drew the attention of passersby. Garrett finally snapped out of his daze and pushed the woman's hand off his arm. Walking over to Lilian, he smiled smoothly. "Hey, gorgeous. I'm the general manager of Skycorp. Would you honor me by letting me get to know you?" Lilian wasn't interested in entertaining either of them. She turned her back and headed toward the counter.
Garrett hurried after her. "Whatever you want, I'll buy it for you." The woman watched the scene unfold, grinding her teeth in fury. Suddenly, she stormed forward and swung at Lilian-only to miss as Lilian deftly dodged. The slap landed squarely on Garrett's cheek with a loud smack, shocking everyone nearby. Garrett clutched his face in disbelief. "You hit me?" Panicking, the woman stammered, "I'm sorry, baby! I didn't mean to! It's her fault-she was seducing you!" Ignoring the chaos behind her, Lilian calmly paid for the ring and walked out of the store without looking back once.
