Chapter 685 Going With The Flow

Sebastian watched in disbelief as Victoria, who was right in front of him, chatted and laughed merrily with another man.

Driven by jealousy, he erupted in anger and swiftly approached them, taking a stance between them and forming a barrier to keep them apart.

Victoria looked at Sebastian in confusion. “Seb, what are you doing? I’m talking to Mr. Forrester. Don’t cause trouble.”

Hearing this, Sebastian finally recognized the man before him.

It was Julian!

Having dealt with similar situations before, Sebastian adeptly addressed him, stating, “Mr. Forrester, my apologies.”

Sebastian didn’t offer any further explanation, and Julian didn’t seem to take offense at the former’s intrusion.

“No problem,” Julian replied absentmindedly, his eyes scanning the area as if seeking someone. “It’s good to see that you have a genuine concern for Ms. Lesley, Mr. Taggart. I wish you both everlasting happiness.

have some other matters to attend to, so please excuse me.”

The relationship between Sebastian and Victoria remained a well–guarded secret, known only to a privileged few.

Considering the circumstances surrounding the Lesley family, Sebastian had reservations about revealing, their relationship to the public.

Nevertheless, he wasn’t worried about Julian exposing their secret as the man didn’t appear to be the type to meddle in such matters.

Victoria flashed Julian a grateful smile before stepping back and positioning herself behind Sebastian.

Despite Hadley Corporation and Forrester Group being fierce competitors in the business world, Sebastian’s admiration for the Forrester remained unaffected.

Perceiving Julian’s intentions, Sebastian was willing to extend a favor to him. “Mr. Forrester, the fifth floor offers abundant entertainment options and an excellent view. I suggest you go and have a look. I assure you, it won’t disappoint.” D

A brief moment of warm gratitude softened Julian’s typically cold gaze. He promptly responded with a quick “thank you” and hurried toward the fifth floor.

Victoria tugged on Sebastian’s sleeve, confused. “Seb, what did you say to Julian? I couldn’t understand a word.”

Sebastian explained, “Ms. Gabrielle Cook has returned to attend the international business conference. Mr. Forrester was looking for her, and I simply helped him as thanks for his genuine well–wishes for us,”

“What? Gabrielle has returned?” Victoria exclaimed, her mouth hanging open in surprise. The recent rumors about Gabrielle’s affair with Julian had spread far and wide. Gabrielle had left the country to escape the ensuing controversy, leaving Christina heartbroken, especially since Gabrielle hadn’t confided

in her beforehand. “Christina must not be aware of this. I need to tell her right away.”

However, Sebastian swiftly grabbed her arm, urging caution. “I suggest you wait and inform her later.”

A realization struck Victoria, and she lightly tapped her forehead in realization. Understanding flooded her, and she chuckled. “You’re right. Distance can indeed make the heart grow fonder. Okay, I get it now.”

Sebastian gazed at her joyful face and spoke seriously. “Victoria, I want us to make our relationship public. What are your thoughts on that?”

Taken aback, the woman looked at him in disbelief before questioning, “Seb, are you joking?”

Sebastian shook his head. “I’m serious. I want to be with you without hiding it. I genuinely care about you, and there’s nothing to be ashamed of.” D
