Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1038

Instantly, several reporters blocked Sebastian's path, snapping photos wildly.

However, Sebastian's gaze remained locked onto Lillian the entire time.

It was as if he had never truly looked at her before. He had always known, objectively, that she was beautiful.

But looking closely now, he realized just how captivating she truly was.

Bella might have been considered pretty, but compared to Lillian, she wasn't even worth mentioning.

The gap in their physical attractiveness was painfully obvious.

With just a touch of makeup, Lillian possessed an alluring, radiant complexion that set her miles apart from anyone else.

Sebastian's mind blanked for a second. In the past, he had never once focused on her beauty.

It was as if he had never cared whether she was pretty or not.

Perhaps it was because he had never given her the time of day back then, which was why seeing her now struck him with such unbelievable force.

This time, Lillian's stunning looks embedded themselves deeply into his eyes and his heart.

The surrounding reporters quickly caught on to the fact that his eyes hadn't left her for a second.

One reporter teased, "Mr. Blake, are you highly interested in Ms. Mercer's projects?

Since you both operate in the same industry, can we expect a future collaboration, or perhaps a fierce rivalry?"

Sebastian didn't seem to register the question, his gaze still fixed dazedly on Lillian.

Lillian wasn't oblivious to his stare. She had loved him deeply once; she recognized that intense gaze all too well.

However, she offered absolutely zero response. She didn't so much as glance in his direction, casually maintaining her polite smile as she dealt with the reporters in front of her.

On Sebastian's end, the questions quickly pivoted to his personal life.

"Mr. Blake, your new wife, Miss Ward, didn't attend the event with you today. Following the disruption of your wedding, do you have plans to host a new ceremony?"
