The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 167

"I'll go get the groceries. You stay here and watch Alora," Riley offered.

Mrs. Gable nodded, happy to oblige, and headed back into the nursery.

Riley typed out a text to Sebastian: *[Sebastian, thank you so much for helping me move the other day. I'd love to treat you to dinner tonight if you happen to be free?]*

After sending it, she began typing a follow-up in the text box: *[If not, would you have time this weekend?]*

SSY: *[I'm free.]*

Riley stared at the reply, blinking in surprise. Just like that? Was the untouchable CEO really this easy to book?

She quickly deleted the drafted text and typed: *[Would 6 PM work for you?]*

SSY: *[That works.]*

Riley's previously gloomy mood, ruined by her mother's phone call, instantly lifted.

She was the type of person who couldn't stop thinking about a promise until she fulfilled it. Getting this sorted made her feel a lot better.

With the time set, Riley headed out to buy groceries.

When Riley returned carrying two massive bags of food, Mrs. Gable was surprised. "Why did you buy so much?"

"Sebastian helped me move the other day, so I'm making dinner for him tonight as a thank you."

Hearing that Sebastian was coming over, Mrs. Gable instantly grew nervous. This was a man that even Arthur and Pierce Landon deferred to. To her, he was practically a god walking among mortals.

Just looking at him made her heart race. When he had helped carry the boxes and they shared an elevator ride, she had been so terrified she didn't dare lift her head or breathe too loudly.
