The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 551

The elevator reached the ground floor.

Riley stepped out of the elevator and exited the building. Noticing Pierce was still trailing behind her, she stopped and said coldly, "Stop following me."

"Are you going to see him?" Pierce asked tentatively.

Riley's patience evaporated. "Pierce, we are divorced. Where I go and who I see has absolutely nothing to do with you. If you keep following me, I'll call the police."

With a cold face, she briskly walked toward her parked car.

Pierce stood frozen in place, watching Riley get into her car and drive off. He then pulled out his phone and called Scott Baxter. "She's headed out. Follow her, but keep your distance. See where she's going."

Riley arrived at the door of The Gilded Suite at The Nine Heavens Pavilion and knocked.

A moment later, Zach opened the door. "Riley, you finally made it. The Boss is wasted. I told him to go home, but he refused. Go in and check on him."

Riley hurried into the room. In the front lounge, she saw Sebastian leaning back against the sofa, his eyes closed. She couldn't tell if he was drunk or just asleep. The harsh lighting accentuated his sharp, striking features. The top three buttons of his charcoal dress shirt were undone, revealing the faint lines of his collarbones and adding an air of sexy languor.

Two empty brandy bottles sat on the coffee table. The rich, sharp scent of alcohol permeated the air, wrapping the room in a lingering sense of loneliness and decadence.

She stepped forward and softly called out, "Sebastian."

Sebastian slowly opened his eyes, his gaze locking onto Riley without blinking. A rush of joy swelled in his chest. She really came. She still cared about him.

Meeting his deep, affectionate stare, Riley's heart skipped a beat. Why was he always like this? Whenever he drank, he loved to stare at her. And even when he was supposedly drunk, his eyes looked perfectly clear, as if he wasn't intoxicated at all.

That gaze was incredibly hard to resist.
