Sebastian’s brow furrowed the moment he heard how she addressed him. He hated being called Mr. Sebastian. It felt foreign, distant, and utterly wrong coming from her.

“What did you just call me?”

Lilian met his gaze with a mocking glint. “Mr. Sebastian. Is there a problem? You’re about to get engaged to Miss Everly, after all. It’s better if we keep our distance; I’d hate to give her a reason to come after me.”

Hearing the resentment in her voice, Sebastian’s dark eyes actually softened with a hint of a smile. “Lilian,” he said, his voice dropping into a gentle but firm tone, “I’ll give you one more chance to fix that. How are you supposed to address me?”

His voice was calm, yet it carried an underlying authority that made Lilian bristle and left the crowd thoroughly confused.

The rumors said they were over, but this scene suggested otherwise. No one could look at the blatant doting in his eyes or hear that tender tone and believe they were strangers.

Everly, standing nearby, watched their back–and–forth; especially the warmth in Sebastian’s eyes. She ground her teeth in fury.

That bitch. Even now, she was shamelessly throwing herself at Sebastian. Everly vowed she wouldn’t let her steal him away again. Even if Sebastian didn’t love her, she’d be damned if she let Lilian have him.

Everly forced a smile. “Sebastian, don’t make it difficult for her. She isn’t wrong to call you that. After all, there’s nothing between you two anymore.”

The words had barely left her mouth when Sebastian snapped his head toward her, his eyes flashing with cold fury. “Shut up. This has nothing to do with you. Since when do you have the right to stick your nose into our business?”

The public reprimand left Everly humiliated. She couldn’t believe he would strip her of her dignity like that in front of everyone. She felt a surge of self–pity and directed all her hatred toward Lilian. If it weren’t for that woman, Sebastian would never have snapped at her.

Ignoring Everly, Sebastian turned back to Lilian, his gaze fixed on her face. “Lilian. My name.”

Lilian saw the stubbornness in his eyes; he clearly wasn’t going to let this go until she gave him the answer he wanted. It wasn’t like she was the one who started the engagement rumors, but seeing his persistence, she finally gave in.

“Fine. Sebastian, you old fart. Happy?”

A genuine smile finally broke across Sebastian’s face. “Perfect,” he murmured. “And you can invite whoever you want.” The exchange left the onlookers feeling like they’d just been force–fed a display of public affection. This wasn’t a breakup; this was a couple’s spat. It was becoming clear that these two were very much together, making Everly look like a desperate interloper.

Besides, Lilian was leagues ahead of Everly. Whether it was her looks or her family background, she blew the other woman out of

the water.

Eric watched the two of them and shook his head with a resigned smile. He pulled out his phone, made a quick call, and a moment later, a group of people was led into the ballroom.

Everly’s face drained of color the moment she saw them. Panic surged through her. How did Lilian find them, and what is she planning to do?
