Leo Flynn felt he couldn't just sit there and do nothing anymore.
Ian Hudson was obviously flaunting his special relationship with Raelynn Ortiz to the world. With so many people here today, the image of them as a happy family of three was already deeply rooted in everyone's minds.
He couldn't think of any way to turn this situation around.
He couldn't even understand how Sebastian Croix was still acting so calm and collected. For any man's pride, a public spectacle like this was a suffocating blow to the ego.
"Seb?" Leo felt like he was panicking more than the man actually involved.
Sebastian lifted his gaze, observing the scene across the room. The three of them had cut the cake, and Raelynn was looking down with a smile as she talked to Lily, radiating a rare gentleness and joy.
Raelynn was in a great mood.
He could see that clearly.
Ian grabbed a napkin and handed it to Raelynn so she could wipe her hands.
The interaction between the two carried the effortless familiarity of years spent together.
The little kids swarmed around them.
One by one, they eagerly smeared cake frosting onto Lily's cheeks.
Lily took it all in stride, her big eyes curving into happy crescents.
But then, as if suddenly remembering something, she reined in her playful mood. With a face like a frosted kitten, she turned to Raelynn. "Mama, take me to wash my face, please? I feel all sticky and uncomfortable."
As she spoke.
Lily glanced back over her shoulder and shot a discreet wink at Ian.
Her overly serious little face made the corners of Ian's mouth twitch in amusement.
Raelynn remained completely oblivious to the secret exchange between the two. She only saw that Lily's hair was about to get matted with sugar, and her own dress had caught some of the crossfire. "Alright, let's go. There's a restroom right next door."
Lily hurriedly shot another pointed look at Ian.
Ian gave a subtle nod, signaling that he understood.
As soon as Raelynn led Lily away.
The guests were still laughing and mingling in small groups.

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....
The croix family is evil...
