Sebastian Croix stared at Raelynn Ortiz from the edge of the crowd.
A terrifying storm seemed to brew in his dark eyes. His knuckles turned white as he gripped his phone tighter and tighter.
His flawless, stoic face was devoid of warmth, as if he had just stepped into a freezing abyss.
Slowly, he lowered his head.
He looked at the phone screen again.
The cheerful chatter and laughter around him faded into a surreal buzz.
In the photo, Raelynn glowed with maternal radiance. Back then, her hair had been cut to her collarbones.
In all the years he had known her.
She had only worn her hair at that length for two years.
He could pinpoint the exact year the photo was taken just by looking at her hairstyle.
The swollen belly beneath her hospital gown was impossible to ignore—she had been in the final stages of pregnancy.
He swiped back.
To the slightly blurry Critical Condition Notice for postpartum hemorrhage. The name of the family member who had signed it was cut out of the frame.
"Sebastian?" Seraphina Vance noticed him standing there, his head bowed and radiating an unspeakable, chilling sharpness.
Julian also looked over. "What's wrong? An issue at the company?"
Just as he spoke.
Leo Flynn, who had been keeping an eye on Raelynn and Ian Hudson, suddenly spoke up. "Is Raelynn actually going to accept Mrs. Hudson's dowry gift?"
Seraphina and Julian turned to look.
Cordelia Hudson didn't mind offering the gift publicly in the slightest.
She looked at Raelynn with eager affection. "This jewelry doesn't quite suit me anymore. It truly belongs on a beautiful young woman like you."
Raelynn understood Cordelia's underlying message.
The older woman was incredibly fond of her.
This wasn't just a gift; it was a family heirloom meant for a future daughter-in-law.
If she could grasp that.
The shrewd socialites watching the exchange clearly understood it, too.
In an instant.
Countless gazes drifted uncontrollably toward the tall, imposing figure of Sebastian Croix.
Expressions of sympathetic gossip filled the room.
Given the recent exposure of their actual marriage, many also cast side glances at Seraphina.
Everyone knew the tangled web between them all.
