The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 307

Riley's eyes widened in surprise. What a crazy coincidence!

Fearing Riley might overthink it, Lucille quickly added, "Mrs. St. John hasn't been eating properly the last few days, so I called him. He was probably worried and came over to check on her."

So, the call Sebastian had received from Lucille while they were leaving the house was about Madeline refusing to eat?

But... "Why did he come so late?"

"She thinks he's an impostor pretending to be her son. Every time he visits, he has to make sure she doesn't see him. He either watches from afar or waits until she's asleep. Last time she caught him, she ended up scratching him badly."

Lucille sighed, her eyes filled with sorrow.

Riley remembered the time Franklin had called her, mentioning that Sebastian was in a terrible mood because his mother had attacked him.

Not only did he have to sneak around just to see his own mother, but he was also treated like an imposter. It must have torn him apart.

Just then, the door to Madeline's room opened, and Sebastian stepped out.

Riley looked up, her gaze locking onto his from across the hallway.

"Dr. Vance, why don't you keep him company? I'll go check on Mrs. St. John." Lucille swiftly slipped into Madeline's room, leaving Riley and Sebastian alone.

Riley had planned to tell Sebastian about her involvement only after Madeline's condition showed significant improvement. She hadn't expected to run into him like this.

She tilted her chin toward the living room, gesturing for him to follow.

Sebastian nodded slightly.

They walked over and sat down on the sofa.

"You..."

"You..."

They spoke in unison.

Sebastian gestured slightly. "You first."

Riley pursed her lips. "Are you doing okay?"
