It was Matilda Croix.
Raelynn figured that powerful people could find out anything with a snap of their fingers. Her new phone number was no exception; of course Matilda knew it.
She answered the call.
Matilda didn't bother with pleasantries. "What time are you heading over?" she demanded.
"I'm leaving shortly," Raelynn replied.
"Is Sebastian with you right now?"
Raelynn hesitated for a fraction of a second, about to say yes.
Matilda scoffed coldly. "What is that boy busy with now?"
"You two must arrive together today. Otherwise, what will people think?"
Raelynn had learned her lesson and knew better than to openly defy Matilda. "I know."
She ended the call.
After debating with herself, she decided to dial Sebastian's number anyway.
Even though she knew he hadn't saved her new number, she still had to go through the motions.
Unsurprisingly, he didn't answer.
He had left the house incredibly early that morning, skipping breakfast with her entirely.
She had no idea if he was actually swamped with work or if he was just deliberately ignoring her existence.
Since she couldn't reach him, Raelynn had no choice but to drive there herself.
Louis Flynn's birthday bash was a massive spectacle. The Flynn family had lavishly booked the entire resort, taking over the banquet halls, guest suites, and entertainment areas to accommodate guests flying in from all over the country.
Raelynn had to take the highway for a good portion of the trip, taking nearly an hour and a half to finally reach the destination.
Luxury cars lined the sprawling driveway.
Guests streamed in and out of the resort while the waitstaff bustled around in a synchronized frenzy.
Unfamiliar with the massive venue, Raelynn tried to scan the area to see if Sebastian had arrived yet.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the property.
Meanwhile, back in the main area.
Raelynn walked past crowds of mingling guests, many of whom had flown in from different states. The resort grounds were expansive, and it took her quite a while to finally reach the main banquet hall.
She was just pulling out her phone to try Sebastian again when she heard a flurry of whispers from a nearby group.
"The big boss of Croix Holdings just arrived. Let's go see if we can get a word in."
Raelynn frowned.
While she had suspected Sebastian would show up on his own and completely ignore her, having it confirmed still felt like a slap in the face.
After all, if he didn't want to arrive together, he could have just said so beforehand.
Instead of leaving her hanging like a fool.
She followed the crowd's gaze, intending to walk over and find him.
But the moment she took a step, she froze.
Her eyes locked onto the scene down the corridor. Sebastian was already surrounded by a cluster of important figures. And standing right by his side... was Seraphina Vance.

I think for as slow as the beginning was, their turning point is just so fast... really hope we actually get to read about R and S and their rekindle.... we did not read 950 pages for their story to be sidelined. Im for this sideline story, but it if it's to separate from the main characters and their story, please make it separate book....
Author please update more chapters...
I really like Zella, she is becoming a good friend to Raelynn. Ian needs to go. The relationship with Chloe is confusing. Some chapters they are cousins, sometimes they're sibling. A little confusing....
Julians role as big brother- I feel comes from a genuine place, but in a relationship thats is just as stained as Raelynns and Sebastians. It hard for me to connect to his big brother role as he too was such a problem before. And while they talked a little bit, the conversation did not give me the believe there was resolution between Raelynn and Julian. For a brute, he should make his feelings clear about the situation to Raelynn and then step back, until there is more foundation for him to stand on....
Knife in my heart. I hurt for Raelynn. She has made it this far, but how much does she have in her, everyone has a breaking point. Some back of me hopes the author is joking to lighten the mood after so many intense chapters, but thats not this kind of story or couple....
My heart cannot take this. This, cannot be how it ends with these too. They need resolution with each other. Raelynn needs to be more humanize with Sebastian. We know she is hurt, but this is the branch. She needs all these answers, if not for them to be together, then for Lily to have both her parents. Stop with the mind games Raelynn!...
Its like the story is just repeating itself...
Timeline is getting lost for me. So many treasured little memories Raelynn has but yet, he was gone for years ? Anyways... still rooting for them! These two need a heart to heart. Lily "forgetting" someone, not possible in this day and age and I hope thats not their storyline....
Sebastian, the man of few words.... needs to find all the words! Needs to fight for her! On note, seven years seems like a long time for this master plan (which I am sure goes back much farther). Rereading this novel, and it seems like everything has played out in a 5-8 month time span. And I feel like all Sebastian's doings/ plan have not been revealed. I hope we get to see the whole picture and have the resolutions we hope. But seven years of mistreatment, I just don't see Raelynn fully coming back. If these was 2-3 years, maybe, and I know it changes some characters around, but it would still work. Rooting for them!...
Literally on edge!...
