You Need To Rest
Sebastian asked, “What is it? Who are you chatting with?”
Sasha replied, “Tillie has apologized to me and thanked me for giving her a second chance.”
Smiling, she handed Sebastian the phone.
The conclusion was what everyone had hoped for. At the very least, Tillie wanted to improve and seized
upon the opportunity to do so.
Consequently, Sasha and Sebastian decided to keep the matter a secret. During the barbeque in the
evening, the atmosphere was jovial. Other than Devin and Sabrina, Edmund joined in the party too.
They made merry for the entire night.
By the time Edmund and Tillie left, everyone noticed their relationship had taken a turn for the better.
Thus, Sasha put the matter at the back of her mind.
When she saw Sebastian holed up in his study the entire night despite the party outside, she went into
the kitchen and made some soup for him.
“Sebby, why don’t you have some soup first. There’s no point rushing to meet the orders,” Sasha said to
him while putting the soup in front of the latter.
Despite their long trip to Moranta, they didn’t manage to resolve the problem they had. All they did was
buy some time for themselves by delaying the delivery date. In spite of that, it was still imperative that
they produce the goods on time.
Unfortunately, what was troubling them now was that the manufactured products were not up to
expectations. In fact, they began to wonder how the sample was made in the first place.
In the midst of solving the chemistry problem on his computer, Sebastian declined in exasperation.
“I’m not hungry.”
“Sebastian Hayes!”
Fuming in front of him, Sasha suddenly cried out his full name, causing him to be stunned.
When he raised his gaze and noticed the anger in her eyes, he was jolted into stopping what he was
doing.
“Let me remind you that health is wealth. If you refuse to take care of your body while doing this, I will
forbid you from getting involved,” Sasha declared candidly.
Sebastian was dumbstruck as it was the first time he was scolded by her.
Finally, he complied and finished the soup. After that, he proceeded to dismantle the earliest samples
that had been sent back.
Sasha was given a fright when she saw what he was about to do.
“What are you doing? How can you do it yourself? It’s not like you even know how to do it.”
“What else am I supposed to do? All the staffs are useless. If I don’t do it myself and produce something,
I will be in trouble,” Sebastian ranted with a gloomy expression.
He had no other choice as the transaction was turning into the decline of his illustrious business career.
Despite resolving everything else, he had not expected to fail there.
Even Sasha was stumped.
At the end of the day, she refused to let him do it, as both of them were victims of nuclear wave radiation.
The last thing she wanted was for him to be hurt from being exposed to it again.
Hence, Sasha took the sample away from him and shoved it onto Devin instead.
“Devin, Sebastian is being driven mad by this item. Can you get someone to dismantle it and map out in
detail the components inside? I don’t want him to physically touch it.”
“Sure,” Devin readily agreed.
Thus, Devin brought the sample home with him.
As for Sasha, she dragged Sebastian back up to their room to rest regardless of whether he wanted it or
not.
“Sebastian, have you heard of this saying?”
“What saying?”
“Sometimes, even the strongest people get tired. By working endless nights on it, your mind will shut
down from exhaustion regardless of how smart you are,” Sasha illustrated her point to him.
All she was telling him was that he had to rest when necessary.
To her surprise, Sebastian suddenly stood at the bathroom door and gave her a long and thoughtful look.
“That seems to make sense.”
“What?”
“Shall we go in together, Darling?” All of a sudden, he hugged her so closely that she could feel his
burning breath. Before she could react, he had carried her into the bathroom.
Hey! This wasn’t what I meant!
That night, Sasha was made to understand what it felt like to be digging her own grave.
When both of them woke up the next morning, Jonathan sent them a message saying that Aquene
Temple had called to inform them that the pears on the hill were ripe for picking. Hence, he asked them if
they were interested in going.
Picking pears?
Sasha didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry. Nonetheless, she kept her opinions to herself.
After agreeing to it, she came up to persuade Sebastian. “Sebby, let’s head over for a relaxing day out.
Besides, you haven’t seen your dad in a long time.”
“Haha, whose dad?”
“My dad. It’s that fine with you?”
Given what a flexible woman Sasha was, she changed her tact in the blink of an eye.
With that, the couple headed to Aquene Temple in the afternoon.
The moment they arrived at the foot of the hill, they saw a large swathe of undulating hills covered by a
golden hue. Underneath the rays of the afternoon sun, the entire landscape looked like a stunning
painting from a master artist.
