The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 239

Sebastian's complexion had returned to normal, and his deep voice was tinged with a husky note of raw desire. "I'm not her boyfriend."

Riley looked at Sebastian in surprise. How could he not be her boyfriend?

Did they have a fight and break up?

She suddenly remembered that Winona hadn't shown up for Sebastian's birthday a few days ago. Had they already broken up by then?

For a moment, the shock of this news made Riley completely forget her earlier embarrassment.

She looked back and forth between Sebastian and Winona. "Is there some sort of misunderstanding between you two?"

Winona didn't say a word, merely looking at Sebastian with bright, eager eyes.

He had been the one to ask her to pretend to be his girlfriend. He had even said back then that she couldn't break character in front of anyone. Now, he was voluntarily coming clean.

There was definitely something suspicious going on here!

Sebastian ignored Winona's excited, gossip-hungry gaze and looked calmly at Riley. "There is no misunderstanding. From the very beginning, she and I were never in a relationship."

Riley grew even more confused. "But in front of Eleanor..."

Sebastian explained in a smooth, steady tone, "I did it to pacify my grandmother. She was threatening to stop taking her medication unless I got a girlfriend. I had no other choice, so I asked Winona to help me put on an act."

An act?

Riley's face was filled with disbelief. She turned to Winona, as if hoping to get a denial from her.

Winona nodded.

With both parties admitting to it, Riley had no choice but to believe them.
