She was utterly uncompromising.
She looked like she was actively trying to scrape off a layer of toxic sludge.
Sebastian didn't get angry. He simply gave Quentin a slight nod. "We'll take our leave then."
He didn't bother arguing with Raelynn over whether she wanted the escort or not.
Raelynn knew the Yves family needed time to process the wreckage of the night.
After saying her goodbyes, she stepped outside.
She decided to crash at Professor Finch's place for the night.
With the truth finally out in the open, the battle lines were drawn.
She didn't need to play the avoidance game anymore.
The two houses were only a few hundred feet apart, just a quick walk down the road.
As she walked, she wondered what fate awaited Seraphina and the Vance family.
They had brazenly defrauded Dr. Hayes, and the counterfeit amulet was a nuclear bomb that completely eradicated any claim of innocence.
Dr. Hayes might not dirty her own hands to destroy Seraphina.
But since Seraphina was in the medical field, the matriarch could effortlessly annihilate her career. Seraphina's moral bankruptcy was now absolute; neither domestic nor international medical communities would ever touch her again.
Her years of grueling medical studies were completely up in smoke.
The Yves family's retaliation, however, was a whole different beast.
They would undoubtedly launch a scorched-earth campaign against the Vances.
The Vance family was going to be gutted from the inside out.
Raelynn paused her steps. If they had managed to commission such a flawless replica, it meant they knew exactly what the original looked like. Which meant they had to know where the real one was, right?
Growing up in the antique business, she had seen countless jade amulets that all looked virtually identical. She didn't really have a specific image in her head, as she wasn't sure what unique design details the Yves family's pendant possessed.
Deep in thought, she heard the unhurried crunch of footsteps behind her.
She turned around.
Sebastian's tall, imposing figure was strolling just two paces away.
