Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 1025

Sean knew that matters of the heart couldn't be forced. They had met at the wrong time, and with so many misunderstandings between them, it was clear that she truly didn't want the boss anymore.

His voice choked up. "It's such a shame. You two seemed like a perfect match, a power couple. She's kind and gentle. When she's happy, she's like an adorable seventeen-year-old girl, but when facing enemies, she's mature and composed."

After speaking, Sean lowered his head and ate, feeling miserable. He hated Timothy and Joanna for their unscrupulous methods. They were the reason the boss and his wife couldn't be together.

Sebastian’s chest ached with the same bitter regret. The old saying hit him harder than ever—you never know what you have until it’s gone.

The two ate their dinner in silence. A tear dropped into his bowl, and he swallowed his bite along with it.

Sebastian saw it, which only made him feel worse. He stared at the rice in his bowl, his appetite gone, but he knew he had to eat.

He had to recover his strength as quickly as possible so he could help Natalie from the shadows and win this war.

Joanna and Maxwell Griffith's efforts would all be for nothing. They had waited over a decade, only to end up with nothing.

This was the surprise he had prepared for them.

In the coming days, the two of them would be driven mad with fury, and after their anger subsided, they would start plotting how to kill Natalie.

He was the one who had pushed her into the line of fire. This time, he would not let her get hurt again.

After dinner, Sebastian leisurely picked up the file from the table. He opened it, took out the documents, and flipped directly to the last page.

The moment he saw the words confirming no biological relationship, Sebastian felt a sense of both understanding and relief.

"Before I married Natalie, my grandfather had me sign an agreement, and I did it without hesitation. Back then, nothing was more important to me than securing the management rights to the company."

He had been arrogant back then, hadn't gone through all of this yet, hadn't matured. He had still failed Natalie.

There was another reason: to prevent the management rights from falling into the hands of Maxwell Griffith and his illegitimate son.

He agreed to his grandfather's demands. Because that agreement involved Natalie, and he didn't have a good impression of her at the time.

He didn't understand why his grandfather had dragged Natalie into the Griffith family's schemes.

And then there was Natalie's grandfather, who had suddenly shown up at his office that day to tell him that Natalie was the one who had saved him all those years ago.
