Chapter 243
"Yeah! It's the finance magazine. I saw one in my dad's study... The guy on the cover kinda looks like him... but not as handsome!"
"Maybe the photo just doesn't do him justice..." Gillian said casually.
Cyrus had a look of disdain on his face.
What was so good-looking about Sebastian? Was Sebastian better looking than himself?
He was not even trying to praise himself, but he was definitely more attractive than Sebastian.
And he was much younger than Sebastian.
Sebastian was too old!
Were people blind?
"Gillian, Maddie! Have you guys eaten enough? My mom's surgery was successful!"
Maddie and Gillian finally took their eyes off Sebastian, smiling happily, "That's great! As long as it was successful, Steph, don't be upset anymore; it's heartbreaking to see you like that!" Stephanie grinned bitterly, "I won't be... Thanks for being with me today."
Cooper, who had been waiting silently and not speaking, suddenly said, "Now that Mrs. Bishop's surgery was successful, I'll leave and report back to my father! Here are some flowers for Mrs. Bishop... Stephanie, if you don't mind, please accept them on her behalf. If not, I'll just bring them back."
Seeing his sincere expression, Stephanie silently accepted the flowers, "I'll thank you on my mom's behalf."
"You're too polite. I'll take my leave now, and I hope to see you again in the future."
With that, Cooper turned and left.
Putnam walked over to Sebastian and tapped his shoulder, "Remember to transfer the money for this treat to my account."
Sebastian replied lightly, "You are my brother."
"Brothers should always settle their accounts clearly."
"Your real brother is over there. Don't confuse the family relations."
Putnam's mouth twitched, "You're just going to discard me after using me?"
Sebastian finally smiled, "Thank you."
Putnam and regained his seriousness, "We're friends, no need to be polite!"
"Stephanie, congratulations on your mother's successful surgery!"
"Putnam, thank you for helping out today..."
"No need to be polite, rest assured, I never do things for free... I'll remember the favor Sebastian owes me."
Stephanie couldn't help but laugh, "Well, you guys can take your time figuring that out."
Sebastian raised an eyebrow, "Such an ungrateful girl."
Stephanie winked at him, Putnam laughed beside her, "I'll take my time settling the score. With that being said, leave. There's something I
need to take care of at the company this afternoon."
"Goodbye, I won't see you off," Sebastian said with a faint smile.
"I don't care for you sending me off..."
Maddie took the initiative, "Steph... I'll see Mr. Damon off for you."
Putnam's mouth twitched again, "No need to bother..."
But Maddie interrupted, "It's okay, I'll walk you to the door..."
Stephanie said directly, "Maddie, it's time for you to go home too...
Putnam, could you do a favore

Putnam said helplessly, "Driving a beauty home... what an honor."
and
"Well, don't be too grateful for this opportunity I'm giving you... Maddie, you just go with him, I'll take care of my mom, and we'll keep in touch by phone!"
