"Forrest," Raelynn acknowledged as she came to a halt.
Forrest set down his teacup. "Have a seat."
The moment Matilda saw Tristan walking alongside Raelynn, her expression hardened. "Tristan, come sit by me. Let Raelynn take care of Sebastian." She waved him over.
Tristan didn't argue, walking straight to Matilda's side.
It was only then that Matilda noticed the injury on Sebastian's leg. "Sebastian, what happened here? Is it serious?"
"It's nothing," Sebastian replied, his tone laced with indifference.
Matilda sighed heavily. "You always give me reason to worry."
Raelynn, however, didn't buy the matriarch's display of affection. If she truly cared, she would have noticed his injury immediately, rather than prioritizing calling Tristan over to her side.
Matilda turned a sharp scowl toward Raelynn. "You need to be more attentive to his condition."
In truth, Matilda harbored a deep grudge against Raelynn. The younger woman had talked back to her before and even riled up the Yves family matriarch into an argument. It had left a sour taste in Matilda's mouth.
Raelynn met her gaze squarely. "Are you ordering me to do so?"
Her question was blunt. Matilda was perfectly aware that she and Sebastian were already divorced, yet she continued to command Raelynn with such an entitled tone. To an outsider, she sounded like she was addressing a hired maid.
Matilda faltered. "What kind of attitude is that? You and Sebastian have been married for years. Don't you have even a shred of affection left?"
"How we lived for the past seven years and how we functioned as a couple is something you've all witnessed. There's no need to interrogate me about it," Raelynn countered. She was out of patience. She refused to swallow her pride anymore, even over petty verbal jabs.
"You..." Matilda's expression twisted.

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...
