The moment Tatiana saw that woman, her pupils wavered as she trembled more violently in Sean's

embrace.

The woman was Brie Caldwell, a fellow student at the same school with the same major as Tatiana.

Brie

had caused trouble on numerous occasions, subjecting Tatiana to bullying and humiliation.

Sean suddenly remembered that Alyssa had mentioned Tatiana's fear of crossing roads and

speeding

cars.

When Lyla married Winston, their children were still quite young. Some jealous adversaries of

Winston

attempted to harm his children when they couldn't bring him down.

At that time, their opponent assumed that Lyla was Winston's least favorite wife and that her child

was

also the least favored.

This adversary went to the extreme of hiring assassins to target Tatiana, who was just seven years

old, as

revenge against Winston for winning business deals against them.

Although Tatiana survived the incident with minor injuries and Winston completely decimated said

opponent, she was traumatized and scarred from then on.

Frustrated and furious, Sean inquired, “Ms. Tatiana, are you alright?”

“I'm fine,” she calmly replied with a forced smile, but her pale face and sweaty forehead betrayed

the fear

that had gripped her.

The attractive woman, Brie, shot a glance in their direction and immediately grew envious and

irritated by

the sight of Tatiana with a handsome man.

She looked around and put on a mocking expression when she noticed that Sean drove a Porsche

that

was worth only a million dollars or so. She snickered, “Cheap ass bitch.” a

Though she spoke in a hushed tone, Sean and Tatiana overheard the insult. Filled with anger, Sean

told

Tatiana, “Wait for me. I'll be back soon.”

*Sean!” Tatiana panicked, but it was too late. Sean walked up to Brie and asked, “Who are you

referring to?

"Did I say anything? You must have imagined it,” Brie replied with a slightly less hostile tone but

equally

impudent.

Sean clenched his jaw and balled his fists, knowing that Brie was mocking Tatiana.

However, he felt powerless if Brie wouldn't admit it, and he couldn't resort to violence against a

woman.

His anger simmered.

“Mr. Schmidt, thank you for the ride. I'm looking forward to our next outing!” Brie spoke in a

saccharine

tone and blew a kiss toward the car window.

Wait.

Was that Josh Schmidt, the president of the Schmidt Group?

Sean's brows furrowed. Josh remained silent in the car, even revving the engine provocatively.

Fuming on Tatiana's behalf, Sean rapped on the car window and said, “Your car nearly hit that young

lady

back there. Are you really planning to drive off like nothing happened?”

Tatiana pressed her lips together with concern. She didn’t want Sean to stand up for her, and she

certainly

didn't want a conflict with Brie.

Yet, the Laferrari driver continued to ignore them.

"Hey, be careful with your words. We were just driving down the road as usual. Did Mr. Schmidt

come

anywhere near you?” Brie crossed her arms and smirked. “Or are you trying to extort money? I

thought you

were a gentleman. Why act like this?”

Sean furrowed his brows, about to respond when the car window rolled down.
