Divorced CEO's Forgotten Wife Strikes Back (Riley and Bryce) novel Chapter 367

Chapter 367 A Madman

“Since you care about her so much, why not find a way, use whatever you can, to make her come back to you?” Thomas asked. “The Torres family has never been above using any means to get what they want, right?”

Sebastian’s gaze turned cold. “So, must I be exactly like them, too?”

“What?” Thomas was taken aback.

Sebastian let go, looking up at the moon and stars hanging at the edge of the sky outside the window.

“Yes, I have many ways to make Riley stay by my side. But if I really did that, she would only hate me. And I… don’t have the courage to face her hatred.”

A look of astonishment crossed Thomas‘ face. It was the first time he had seen Sebastian shrink back.

But this also showed just how much Sebastian cared about Riley.

“When I was dating her, I once hoped I was a ‘good person‘. So even after parting, I want to be a ‘good person‘—at least in her eyes. So don’t hurt her. Otherwise, I don’t know if I might go mad, do something crazy. And…”

After she left him, this black leather cuff had kept him company day and night. Perhaps it was also the reason he could still remain mentally stable.

The cuff made him feel, in his daze, as if she were still by his side, preventing a complete mental breakdown.

“Do you know the feeling of gaining and then losing? Do you know how it feels when the sky falls? I’ve felt them all,” Sebastian said in a low voice. “I’m already in hell now. But if I were pulled out of hell only to be thrown back in even harder, I might truly become a madman.”

Thomas was speechless.

What exactly is Riley to Sebastian? A deity? Or his only

salvation?

If Riley really leaves Sebastian for good, then Sebastian… what would he become?

He almost didn’t dare to imagine further.

Lara and Riley arrived together at the Torres Group

anniversary celebration.

Next to Lara’s bold red gown, Riley’s champagne–colored dress 2/5

fooked softer, more understated.

But the ruby necklace at her throat added a striking flash of brilliance.

“The Lincolns are hitting up the gala today too. Don’t tell me Cynthia’s gonna be there.” Lana groaned.

“With her personality? Oh, she’ll be there,” Riley said flatly.

“God, I just hope she doesn’t start shit with you at the party.” Lana’s worry was written all over her face. “She’s been acting like she owns the world just because she can donate some stem cells. Literally holding someone’s life hostage like it’s a bargaining chip!”

“Karma’s a bitch. What goes around comes around—it’ll bite her in the ass eventually,” Riley said calmly. “Besides, this is the Torres Group anniversary. She wouldn’t dare piss off Sebastian. Not here.”

“Hopefully,” Lara breathed out.

Meanwhile, Cynthia and Zane were also riding in a car to the banquet venue.

Cynthia bit her lip restlessly, unsure if Riley would wear that ruby necklace today.

But no matter what, I must not let Benedict see that necklace.

far away, having apparently just gotten out of her car as well.

“Riley!” Zane walked straight over to Riley, his eyes full of admiration.

My sister really is the most beautiful.

“Samuel, good evening!” Riley replied, also noticing Cynthia standing beside Zane.

Cynthia was staring fixedly at her!

Riley frowned in puzzlement. Cynthia seemed less to be staring at her and more at the necklace around her neck.

Just then, another black sedan pulled up and stopped in front of the venue.

The person who got out was none other than the head of the Lincoln family–Benedict.

Cynthia was startled and quickly said to Riley, “Riley, I heard you had an unpleasant encounter with my uncle before, even forcibly removing the necklace he cherished and wore for years. You wouldn’t dare show your face in front of him now and put Zane in a difficult position, would you?”

I can’t let Benedict see that necklace–or everything I’ve planned will fall apart.

this.

Although she and Benedict had parted on bad terms, she genuinely didn’t want to put Samuel in a difficult position.

So Riley said to Zane, “Samuel, I’ll head inside first.”

“Alright.” Zane nodded. “I’ll find you later.”

“Okay,” Riley smiled, then turned and entered the banquet hall with Lara.

Zane walked up to Benedict. “Mr. Benedict Lincoln.”

Benedict cast a cold glance at Cynthia standing beside Zane.

“Why is she here?”

“Sebastian took back what he said before, so naturally she can come too,” Zane said.
