The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 250

After a moment of thought, Mrs. Gable added, "If you feel it's too sudden or inexplicable, perhaps the other person has reasons you simply don't know about yet."

Riley frowned. "But I've thought about it for a long time, and I still can't figure out what that reason could be."

Seeing that it wasn't anything terrible, Mrs. Gable relaxed. "If you can't figure it out, then don't force it. Some things just get more confusing the harder you think about them. Maybe one day when you're not even trying, the answer will just come to you naturally."

Riley's tangled mind instantly cleared. That was true. If she couldn't figure it out, she wouldn't stress over it. She'd just let nature take its course. "That makes sense."

Seeing Riley look relieved, Mrs. Gable stood up. "Then get some rest, and don't stay up too late reading."

"I will. Thank you, Mrs. Gable."

"Oh, child, you don't need to thank me for that," Mrs. Gable chuckled softly before leaving the bedroom.

Although Riley could stop obsessing over why Sebastian was treating her so well, the fact remained that he was taking incredibly good care of her and Alora. She couldn't just keep accepting his kindness; she had to find a way to repay him so she wouldn't owe him such a massive debt of gratitude.

Even though she might never be able to fully repay him. Case in point: when she suffered severe hemorrhaging and was on the brink of death, he had mobilized the blood supply that saved both her and Alora's lives. How could she possibly repay a life debt like that?

But just because a debt was impossible to clear didn't mean she shouldn't try.

Riley recalled what Franklin had told her about Sebastian's mother. The sheer devastation of Sebastian's kidnapping had shattered her mind, leaving her institutionalized. This was clearly the result of severe psychological trauma, and as a psychologist, maybe she could actually help.

If she could help Madeline St. John return to normal, that would surely count as a massive favor to Sebastian.

However, Madeline had been ill for fifteen years. She had been suffering for a very long time, and with Sebastian's endless resources, he had undoubtedly brought in the best specialists in the world. If none of them had succeeded, her condition had to be incredibly difficult to treat.

Riley couldn't guarantee she'd be able to cure her, so it was best not to let Sebastian know about her plan just yet. She didn't want to raise his hopes only to crush them.

But she didn't even know which rehab center Madeline was staying at. What should she do?

Suddenly, Riley thought of Winona. The Spencer family and the St. John family were very close friends, so perhaps Winona would know.
