The old man looked at him strangely.
Leo shot a mocking glare at Raelynn before pointedly saying, "No matter what, Seraphina is the savior of the Flynn family. Our family will always grant her whatever she needs. Grandpa, she saved your life. You can't just ignore her grace because of one setback."
Her grace.
A flicker of deep meaning flashed through Raelynn's eyes.
Everything suddenly clicked into place.
She looked at Leo with an inexplicably weird expression.
The old man thought he had misheard.
He actually rubbed his ear. "Say that again? Who saved me?"
Leo suddenly sensed that the atmosphere was wrong.
The words he was about to blurt out caught in his throat. Especially when he met his grandfather's furious, incredulous glare, a sudden, inexplicable chill ran down his spine.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Who told you that? That Seraphina woman?" the old man demanded bluntly.
"What's wrong?"
The old man slammed his hand on the table and stood up. Snatching his walking stick, he strode over and whacked Leo without a second's hesitation.
Mr. Flynn Sr. hit hard. Leo cried out and jumped back in pain, but the old man wasn't finished. He chased his grandson around the room, landing several more heavy blows before finally leaning heavily on his cane, gasping for breath. "You little bastard! How can you be so stupid as to let someone lead you by the nose?! Your precious Seraphina was trying to steal the credit from the very beginning! I already stripped away her dignity at my birthday party, and she knows it perfectly well! And you're still letting her use you?!"
Ignoring the bone-deep ache radiating across his body, Leo gaped at him.
He opened his mouth in shock. "It wasn't Seraphina?"
The old man raised a hand and pointed straight at Raelynn, who had been sitting calmly the entire time. "My dear Raelynn was the one who saved me! I haven't gone senile enough to forget a face!"
Leo jerked his head toward Raelynn.
His eyes widened in utter disbelief, too stunned to make a single sound.
He had even continued funneling resources and connections to her...
Noticing his grandson's devastated expression, the old man suddenly narrowed his eyes. "Why do you look like that? Have you already done something stupid? Did you..."
He suddenly recalled the less-than-friendly expressions Leo had directed at Raelynn.
"You bastard!" The old man felt dizzy with rage. "Forget about transferring back to headquarters! If you're really capable, build some actual achievements on your own merit. Otherwise, you can rot at the bottom for the rest of your life!"
Leo's breathing grew chaotic, his complexion turning ghastly.
If he wasn't allowed to transfer back, what kind of monumental success would he have to pull off to earn his promotion?
Guessing that his grandson had done something terrible, the old man looked at Raelynn with profound apology. "My dear Raelynn, did he disrespect you?"
Raelynn knew this was the moment where she was supposed to be polite and deny it. But instead, she chose to stand her ground. "Plenty of times."
Leo's face stiffened further.
Raelynn looked right at him, enunciating every word. "You owe me an apology."

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!...
