�Okay.� Seraphina glanced at the man, deflating in an instant like a balloon, lowering her head timidly.

Jovan brought her to the quiet stairwell. There were no surveillance cameras around either.

�Are you insane, Murphy? How could you agree to that?!� The man questioned angrily, not showing her any mercy.

�Agree to what?� Seraphina pressed her lips together, acting a fool.

�You actually agreed to make up with her? You�re not that stupid to think she�s going to help improve your relationship with Stefan, right?�

�I never expected any of that. I made myself clear, didn�t I? I�m just like her, I just want Stefan to get better.�

�Hah, get better?�

With eyes darkened, he grabbed her by the chin and mocked her. �Now you�re pretending to love him unconditionally, huh? Why weren�t you considerate of his condition when you decided to make him go through brain surgery to wipe his memories about Renee? Why didn�t you think of that when you substituted his memory of her saving him with yourself?�

�I��

�Both you and I know that the surgery was just a facade. Your main goal was just to replace Renee in Stefan�s memories! Now that you�ve become the person he loves and trusts most, what else do you want?! Why do you have to get her involved?!�

�I�m sorry, I was wrong. I� I wasn�t thinking,� Seraphina admitted to her faults anxiously.

The woman used to be a prideful rich lady. She was so arrogant that she looked down on everyone but Stefan, as she was in love with him. However, now, when faced with Jovan, she couldn�t help but feel a natural fear arising within her heart.

The man knew too many of her secrets, and she was afraid that he would seek revenge on her someday. Moreover, he was truly an absolute madman.

After all, he was able to come up with such insanely absurd ideas, such as brain surgery and memory substitution. She knew that she would be doomed if she ever offended him in any way.

Seraphina explained her stance. �You saw what happened just now, didn�t you? If I didn�t agree to it, she wouldn�t give it a rest. And she�s smart! If she found out about what we did, we�re done for! I was just thinking I could� pretend to befriend her, then make her back off.�

�You�ve seen how much Stef loves me now. Any person wouldn�t be able to handle seeing their lover in love with another. Isn�t it safer to break her heart completely so she�d leave us alone?�

This explanation made Jovan�s expression relax a little. He let go of the woman harshly, his eyes filled with sadistic excitement. �You�re smarter than I thought. Wait till she�s heartbroken, huh? I like this idea.�

Seraphina sighed in relief, knowing that she finally escaped danger. She then mustered up the courage to ask, �You�re not just helping me because you want to use me as a means to control Stefan and take over H Group, right?�

�Of course!� Jovan raised a brow slyly. �H Group is just a bonus. My life goal is to have her for myself.�

Seraphina gulped in fear, thinking to herself. �This man�s love is so suffocating� and horribly demented!� JrNovels.com
