Raelynn knew she couldn't win a war of words against Sebastian.
He was too sharp, too ruthless, leaving absolutely no room for anyone's pride.
Sebastian didn't say anything else to her.
He steered his wheelchair past them.
Leaving behind one final sentence: "Mr. Hudson, I'll be waiting for your answer at the auction."
He went to get his dressings changed.
He didn't care how they would handle this impossible dilemma.
Raelynn knew she had dragged Ian into this mess. He had no obligation to make such a massive sacrifice for her. She thought about it for a moment. "He only made that demand because he thinks we're deeply in love. We're only getting married for the child's sake, Ian. You don't need to give in."
She spoke clearly, emphasizing every word. "If Sebastian is going to keep interfering like this, we don't have to go through with the wedding..."
"Raelynn."
Ian looked down at her, his gaze steady. "I'm marrying you because I care about you. I've never been afraid of trouble, and I don't care if you're using this marriage for the child. You don't need to back out, and you certainly don't need to feel like a burden."
Raelynn was stunned.
Especially by his blunt confession of his feelings.
She swallowed hard, determined to make things absolutely clear. "I'm sorry. You were just trying to help me, and now you're being blackmailed in the middle of a corporate war with the Croix family. I don't want to leave any room for ambiguity. I have zero expectations for marriage anymore. I just want custody of Lily. I might never meet your expectations or give you what you want in return."
Ian wrapped her coat tighter around her, unbothered by her words. "I told you, we have plenty of time."
"It's a mutual choice. No one is getting the short end of the stick," he said dismissively.
Raelynn suddenly found herself at a loss for words.

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...
