The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 647

Beatrice glared at Riley, her eyes burning with fury. "How can you be so shameless? You leave Pierce and immediately turn around to seduce Sebastian. I see exactly what you're doing. You're holding a grudge over Pierce's affair, so you deliberately seduced Sebastian to turn the brothers against each other. How could you be so malicious?"

Riley found the accusation absurd. "Do you seriously think your son is some kind of prize? I feel sick just looking at him. You think I'd seduce Sebastian just to get back at Pierce? Your imagination is running wild."

"Are you trying to say you actually have feelings for Sebastian?" Beatrice scoffed mockingly. "Take a good look at your status. Do you really think you're worthy of him?"

"Whether I'm worthy or not isn't for you to decide." Riley had no patience for this argument. "If you came all this way just to spew nonsense, you can leave right now."

"What, you think hooking up with Sebastian gives you a backbone? You actually believe he respects you? You threw yourself at him, and to him, you're nothing but a cheap thrill."

"Think whatever you want." Riley was exhausted from a long day of traveling and had no desire to entertain this conversation. She stood up and headed for her room.

Beatrice lunged forward and grabbed Riley's arm in a vice-like grip. "Tell Sebastian to stop attacking Landon Enterprises immediately. If you don't, I won't hold back!"

Sebastian had mentioned this to her, saying he wanted to give Pierce a little trouble so he'd be too busy to bother her.

Riley let out a cold laugh. "And exactly how won't you hold back?"

"Alora carries the Landon bloodline. As her grandmother, taking her back to our family is entirely within my rights!"

That single sentence hit Riley's absolute breaking point. She violently ripped her arm out of Beatrice's grasp and stared her down with a lethal chill in her eyes. "If you ever dare to come after Alora, I will personally make sure Landon Enterprises is ruined in front of the entire world!"

Remembering Arthur's warning that Riley wanted to expose Seraphina's illegitimate son, Beatrice's anger boiled over.
