As Seraphina stepped off the elevator, she ran into a hurried Assistant Quinn.
Seeing her, Quinn paused. "Ms. Vance, what brings you here?"
Seraphina masked her nerves with a forced smile. "I need to speak with Sebastian. Is he busy?"
Quinn nodded. "Mr. Croix is still in a meeting. He's been swamped lately. Why don't you wait in his office?"
Hearing that Sebastian was genuinely busy and not just avoiding her, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Her gaze drifted toward his office doors.
The tension in her shoulders finally began to ease.
Nothing had changed.
Quinn still treated her with the utmost respect and clearly had no reservations about letting her into Sebastian's private space.
Her mood brightened considerably.
Entering Sebastian's office, Quinn had someone bring her a coffee before rushing off to his duties.
Seraphina glanced around the sprawling room.
She had been here before, back when her mind was free of ulterior motives, believing this access was a special privilege that proved she was his sole exception.
But now...
Now she had to carry out Cameron's blackmail.
The thought sent a spike of anxiety through her.
She knew this involved the vicious power struggles between the Croix family and the corporate shareholders, but she had no choice but to wade into the murky waters. If she couldn't placate Cameron, her entire plan would go up in smoke.
She stepped up to the massive mahogany desk.
Eyeing the stack of pending documents scattered across its surface.
Seraphina quickly leafed through them, searching for the New Energy AI Initiative Cameron had demanded.
For the entire Croix family to place such importance on it, the stakes had to be astronomical.
After a fruitless search, she reached for the lower desk drawers.
Instead, she found a concealed built-in safe.
It had to be where he kept his most confidential contracts and valuables.
Another terrifying possibility surfaced.
Bringing with it a suffocating wave of despair.
"Impossible," she whispered, her legs nearly giving out as a dark, defensive denial flared in her eyes. "Absolutely impossible."
Sebastian and Raelynn's relationship had shattered ages ago.
There was no way Raelynn was still important to him.
Forcing down the panic threatening to break her, she pulled open the safe and spotted a thick stack of folders. She quickly rifled through them, and just as she expected, she found the New Energy AI Initiative Cameron had mentioned.
Seraphina hesitated.
She really didn't want this to negatively impact Sebastian.
Earlier, she had even considered giving Cameron a forged version of the documents to minimize the damage to the man she loved.
But her gaze drifted back to the keypad.
A fiery, bitter jealousy burned in her eyes.
The password was like a vicious slap to the face, a truth she flatly refused to accept.

No, no, no! Sebastian needs to nip the Zella situation and win Raelynn back! Also, Leo, he is a wildcard for Sebastian's master plan... Sebastian- we know you know, what we know, win your family back!...
I thought now Sebastian and Raelynn will be together now that seraphina is not but you are not letting them to be. Two new female around Sebastian 😭...
I think Ian is sly. He is not what he seems. Sebastian loves Raelyn and they have a daughter together. Besides he has no family to even take care of him. I feel Raelyn should realise that Sebastian is only her true love and go back to him....
