After Riley left, Winona looked at Sebastian, hesitating several times. She wanted to ask, but didn't dare. Finally, unable to suppress her burning curiosity, she asked cautiously, "Sebastian, do you... do you have feelings for Riley?"
Sebastian lifted his gaze, sweeping a cool, penetrating look over her.
Winona immediately raised a hand in a solemn pledge. "Don't worry, I promise to keep my mouth shut. I won't leak a single word to anyone!"
Sebastian nodded in satisfaction. "Good."
Holy crap!
He admitted it! He actually admitted it!
Sebastian St. John really did like Riley Vance!
Riley was Pierce's ex-wife, his very own adoptive brother's former wife. And he was actually... he was diving headfirst into a forbidden romance!
He truly lived up to his reputation as a ruthless tyrant; even his romantic tastes were incredibly unique.
Winona suddenly remembered the time Riley was hospitalized. Sebastian had called her out of the blue, asking if she wanted to visit Riley, and even offered to pick her up and take her to the hospital. It turned out he cared so much about Riley because he had feelings for her.
Wait a minute, he had also mentioned back then that Riley had no one to take care of her, except for her ex-husband Pierce, which was inappropriate. He had asked if Winona liked Riley and if she would help if Riley ran into trouble.
Was he digging a trap for her back then, using her to deal with his romantic rival, Pierce Landon?
Ahhh!
That sly fox had completely played her!
Winona puffed out her cheeks and glared at Sebastian.
Sebastian showed not a shred of guilt for manipulating her. He raised an eyebrow, looking at Winona, who was puffing up like a blowfish. "Aren't you going back to campus?"
"I'm going. I'm leaving right now!" Winona couldn't actually do anything to Sebastian, so she could only grit her teeth to express her sheer dissatisfaction. With a cold harrumph, she stomped angrily toward the door.
