Trapped In Her Heart

When Sebastian did not say anything, Rebecca frowned and slammed the table. "I am talking to you Sebastian Stewart."

Still engrossed reading his doc.u.ments, Sebastian nodded his head and let out an affirmative sound which pissed Rebecca even more.

"What kind of behaviour is this?" Rebecca shouted. She hated how her obedient son was becoming more and more thick skinned. There was a time when Sebastian would readily do everything that his mom said but as times passed by, he slowly started isolating himself and stopped talking to anyone. Things between them became even more distinct when Sebastian moved out of the main mansion and started living on his own.

"Take Mr Nelson's niece out and show her around when I am free, mom I did hear what you said and I'll do it when I am free. Why don't you just leave with dad and stop worrying about what will happen here? I'll take care of it okay?" Sebastian calmly explained. Glancing at his watch, he frowned when he realised that he had already missed his lunch time.

Massaging his forehead, Sebastian sighed. He hated when people disturbed his fixed schedule, no matter who it was.

"When you have time? Do you think I don't remember what you did with my friend's daughter last time? You stood her up and when asked for a reason, you said you did not have any free time in your hand." This wasn't the first time Rebecca had tried to set Sebastian up with someone. It had happened several times in the past and each time, Sebastian would either not meet them or just showed his face for five minutes and leave. When asked for a reason, he would blandly say that he could manage to squeeze out only five minutes from his busy schedule.

When Sebastian did not say anything, Rebecca pursed her lips. She then rested her right elbow on the desk, closed her eyes and started massaging her head. "Yes, it's all my fault. It's my fault that I love you and Ava so much. I keep doing things that are good for you both but no one even cares to appreciate me or my efforts. Do you both think that I am being too nosy and intervening in your lives way too much than I should?" Without waiting for Sebastian's reply, Rebecca added, "I think I should stop bugging you people. You both are a.d.u.l.ts and I don't think so you both need your mother in your life anymore."

Running his hands through his face, Sebastian sighed. Walking towards his mother, he squatted down right in front of her and held her hand. "Mom you know it's nothing like that. Ava and I never said that you are nosy or we don't want you. It's just you know I don't like all this. Dating, going on blind dates is not my thing. I prefer staying here and doing something valuable than sitting with a random person and hearing her rant."

"But Charlotte is not like that, I have met her in person. You will surely like her son." Placing her hand on his cheek, Rebecca added, "Promise mom that you will meet her when I am away."

Keeping quiet for quite some time, Sebastian reluctantly nodded his head.

Cupping his face, Rebecca kissed Sebastian's forehead before caressing his face. "That's like mommy's good boy."

Glancing at the watch, Rebecca gasped, "Ahh I have to go somewhere with your dad so I'll take my leave."

Getting up, Rebecca grabbed her bag and reminded Sebastian about his promise once again before leaving.

After his mother left, Sebastian sat down on his seat and sighed. Massaging his forehead, he furrowed his brows when his migraine started kicking in again.

Taking out his migraine medicines from the drawer, Sebastian quickly gulped it down. He had been suffering from an acute migraine for a few years now and it would act up almost every time or when he over stressed himself.

Just then Patricia entered Sebastian's office to inform him about the lunch. "Boss your lunch is ready."

Glancing at the watch, Sebastian picked you his briefcase and left the room.

Patricia frowned and quickly rushed after him.

…..

Outside.

"Boss your lunch is ready and-"

Cutting Patricia off, Sebastian said, "I'll pass the lunch."

"But you also skipped your breakfast today." Patricia couldn't help but nag Sebastian for skipping his meals. She had been working in the company for more than ten years now and had been working with Sebastian from the day he took over his father's position.

"I am already running late by ten minutes Patricia and I have a meeting with a very important client." Sebastian explained before stepping into the elevator.

Before Patricia could say anything, Sebastian left.
