My Unborn Baby Chose My Husband for Me novel Chapter 99

Lucian strode into the room wearing a sharply tailored black suit. His tall, commanding presence instantly dominated the space as two assistants trailed closely behind him.

What was he doing at a summit in Crestview?

Seraphina stood frozen.

Lucian's predatory gaze swept across the banquet hall before locking onto her.

Across the crowded room, their eyes met.

Seraphina's heart skipped a beat.

Professor Sterling noticed her sudden shift. "Sera? Is everything alright?"

"I'm fine, Professor." Seraphina tore her gaze away, but her pulse continued to race uncontrollably.

Little Bean was doing somersaults of joy. "Daddy's here! I knew Daddy couldn't bear to be away from Mommy!"

He's definitely here for business. It's not like he came specifically for me, Seraphina argued internally.

"Humph, keep denying it, Mommy! The way Daddy just looked at you was so possessive!"

Seraphina: "..."

What she failed to notice was Gideon Grant standing a few feet away, sipping his red wine with an amused glint in his eye as he watched the silent exchange between her and Lucian.

"Interesting," Gideon chuckled softly, taking another sip.

Lucian's arrival completely altered the atmosphere of the gala.

Most of the people in the room recognized him.

As the head of The Langford Group and the wealthiest man in the capital, his influence in the national business world was unrivaled.

Within seconds, a crowd swarmed him, eager to network.

Lucian maintained a cold, detached demeanor, offering only brief replies while his gaze consistently drifted back toward Seraphina.

Seraphina pretended not to notice, continuing her conversation with Professor Sterling.

But her entire body remained tense.

What was Lucian doing here?
