Kiss My Revenge The Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 199

Its content were impossible to discern, but she knew exactly who that person was.

She never really cared for those harmless glances. After all, she barely knew Sebastian, and they had crossed paths only a handful of times.

So she had no idea why he was looking at her like that.

"Seb."

Sebastian frowned slightly, turning to find Arabella standing beside him, seemingly out of nowhere.

With a shy demeanor and a sweet smile, Arabella asked, "Seb, could I get your contact info? I, uh, I've been wanting to ask for ages but was too embarrassed."

She had practiced this smile countless times at home, preparing for the next chance encounter with Sebastian. Her plan to win him over had been set long before Theo broke off their engagement.

That spineless fool had blindsided her, canceling the engagement first. Regardless of whether Sebastian knew about it, she was determined to win him over. As long as she could be with Sebastian, she wouldn't have to fear the Hawke family anymore, nor would she have to worry about being thrown out.

Sebastian's eyes flickered with a hint of coldness. "Drop the act - I don't like it."

His words, though calm, sent a shiver down Arabella's spine.

"I..." she stammered instinctively. “I wasn’t, I just...”

Sebastian didn't bother listening further and walked off without a backward glance. Arabella tried to follow, but one of Sebastian's ever-present assistants stepped in her path.

"Apologies," he said in a formal tone.
