The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 506

Victoria thought Eleanor was dismissing her claims and scolding her for being a busybody. She quickly pulled out her phone, holding the photos right in front of her mother's face. "Look, Mother. I'm telling the truth. They've been having an affair this whole time."

Eleanor stared at the screen for two seconds, then slowly turned her head. "Where did you get these?"

Seeing Eleanor's unnatural composure, Victoria realized something was terribly wrong. Shouldn't she be reeling in shock? Shouldn't she be furious at Sebastian's recklessness? Why was she calmly asking about the source of the photos?

Unless... "Mother, did you already know about them?"

"Yes."

Victoria slowly withdrew her hand, staring at Eleanor in absolute disbelief. "You knew, and you didn't stop them?"

How could she stop them?

They already had a child together. How exactly was she supposed to put an end to that?

Eleanor let out a heavy sigh. "For years, there has never been a woman in his life. He has finally found someone he wants to be with. How could you expect me to cruelly tear them apart?"

"But it's Riley Vance! Pierce Landon's ex-wife! She even had a child with him—a child who should be calling Sebastian her uncle! This is downright incestuous! Mother, have you thought about the consequences? If this gets out, our family's century-old legacy will be dragged through the mud. The company will be implicated, and our very foundation will crumble!"

Did Victoria really think Eleanor hadn't agonized over this? Ever since she discovered the truth, she had spent countless sleepless nights terrified of the fallout they would inevitably face.

But she could also see how much he had changed since being with Riley.
