The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 618

"Confronting him is pointless. It would only tip him off. I've already put my people on it, and we'll have answers soon."

Sebastian's phone suddenly rang. He answered it, spoke briefly, and hung up. "There's a meeting at the company I need to lead. I have to go."

"Okay."

Sebastian kissed Riley's forehead. "I'll come back tonight."

Riley's pretty brow furrowed as she blurted out, "Again?"

Catching the bashful panic in her eyes, a low chuckle rumbled from Sebastian's chest. "I won't mess with you. I just want to see you."

Realizing her mind had been in the gutter, Riley's face flushed bright red. She urged him in a hushed voice, "Don't you have a meeting? Hurry up and go."

Sebastian pulled her in for one last demanding kiss before finally standing up to leave.

Downstairs, sitting in his car, Pierce watched Sebastian walk out of the building and drive away. Furious, he slammed his fist against the center console, his eyes burning with resentment and rage.

He had racked his brain to set everything up, yet Riley had still gone right back to Sebastian.

What was he supposed to do?

What the hell was he supposed to do?

Was he just supposed to sit back and watch his wife be with another man?

Watch his own daughter call another man Papa?

No. He would never accept that!

Suddenly, a thought struck him. He pulled out his phone and made a call. "Elaine? It's Pierce."

"Pierce! To what do I owe the pleasure?" Elaine Vance's voice crackled through the speaker, dripping with eager flattery.

"Did you know Riley found her biological parents?"
