“Alright. Head up.”

Serena raised her eyes.

Sebastian stood a short distance away, phone still to his ear. As she walked toward him, her steps stayed even, unhurried. She did not rush, and she did not hesitate.

Light from the corridor window cut across his figure. The sharpness in his features softened the moment he saw her approach.

For an instant, Serena lost focus. It passed quickly, but she felt it.

He ended the call and lowered his hand. A faint smile crossed his face. “We should go in. They’ve probably been waiting.”

The moment Sebastian pushed open the conference room door, attention snapped toward him.

Eugene’s gaze flicked instinctively to Serena, and his eyelid twitched.

Something felt off.

Standing side by side, the two of them looked unnervingly compatible. It was not just appearance. It was the way they moved, the quiet confidence, the unspoken ease. Eugene could not decide whether he was imagining it.

Daniel, on the other hand, was internally screaming.

So this is it. This is definitely it!

After all, since when did Sebastian look so relaxed around anyone?

Sebastian walked in at his own pace and took the empty seat at the center of the table. “Apologies for the delay,” he said lightly. “I an into Ms. Steele outside. She seemed busy on a call. With her boyfriend, I think.”

Serena’s face heated instantly.

Boyfriend? Why does he open his mouth just to stir trouble?

Eugene blinked once before understanding dawned..

So that mysterious SL was the ex.

Daniel’s lips curved into a knowing smile. Somehow, it felt like Sebastian himself had not fully accepted that fact yet.

The room moved past the awkward beat and returned to business.

Sebastian turned his attention to Eugene. His tone shifted, calm and professional. “I’ve been informed there were disagreements within your firm regarding this engagement. Because of that, we’ve included an additional term.”

He slid the document forward. “The core legal team for this merger will be led exclusively by you, Mr. Beaumont No substitutions.”

Eugene nearly lost his composure.

That clause effectively shut out the competing partner entirely.

Chapter 47 Signing The Contract

Even with years of courtroom discipline, the surge of excitement showed. “That’s… not a problem at all.”

Sebastian nodded. “Then please proceed.”

He signed first, pen moving with unbroken certainty.

Serena watched Sebastian as he worked. Inside the room, he was composed, distant, and precise. Nothing like the man she had spoken to outside minutes earlier.

She found herself wondering, without warning, what he would be like with someone he truly cared for.

The thought startled her.

She immediately reined it in. That was not her place to think about.

Sebastian set the pen down and glanced up. He caught her momentary distraction, and something warm flickered briefly in his expression.

Daniel saw it and inhaled sharply.

So it wasn’t his imagination after all.

Once the paperwork was complete, Daniel checked his watch and smoothly transitioned. “It’s almost noon. I’ve reserved a private room at Midnight Society. Shall we have lunch together?”

Sebastian considered. “I’m available after twelve. That depends on Mr. Beaumont and Ms. Steele.”

Eugene answered without hesitation. “I’m free.”
