Eric drained his glass in one go. “You’ve been with her long enough to know what she values most. It isn’t status or headlines, it’s your life. The moment she heard about the engagement, she didn’t doubt you for a second; she knew you were in trouble. That’s why she wouldn’t stay in Dracovia. Grandpa tried to stop her, but when he realized it was impossible, he sent me along to keep her safe. Once we landed in Murica, we pieced together that you had a plan. Even though she missed you terribly, she kept her distance to avoid compromising your strategy. She settled for watching you from afar while she dug for intel. She even risked infiltrating the Chris family just to find a weakness she could use to help you take down Cary. And you? You kept her in the dark, ignored her calls, and left her to spiral in her own head. Thinking about everything she’s endured for you these past few weeks… it makes me wonder if you even deserve her.”

Listening to him, Sebastian was consumed by a mix of crushing regret and heartache. He had no idea she had gone to such lengths that she had actually stepped into the lions‘ den of the Chris family for his sake. The thought of the danger she’d faced made it hard to breathe. “I’m sorry. I failed her. I thought my silence was protection, but I only succeeded in making her suffer more.”

“Don’t apologize to me,” Eric said flatly. “I’m just her cousin doing my job. She’s the one who carried the weight. I’m telling you this so you’ll finally understand what she actually needs from you. Stop making executive decisions for her life. If you had just trusted her with the truth from the start, she wouldn’t have had to take the long way around. Lilian isn’t some fragile flower; she’s brilliant, she’s tactical, and she’s the kind of woman who can actually stand beside you in a storm. Think about that.”

“I understand,” Sebastian said, his voice low and heavy. “Where is she? I need to see her.”

Eric studied the raw sincerity in the man’s eyes before letting out a long sigh. “Second floor, first door on the left.”

Sebastian didn’t wait. He headed straight upstairs.

He pushed the door open quietly. Lilian was fast asleep, her exhaustion finally catching up to her. She didn’t stir as he crossed the room and sat on the edge of the bed. Watching her peaceful face, he reached out and gently tucked a stray lock of hair behind her

ear.

“Lilian,” he whispered, his voice thick with emotion. “I’m so sorry for everything I put you through.”

The only response was the silence of the room and the soft, steady rhythm of her breathing.

Meanwhile, back in Dracovia.

In the study of the Soren family home, Robert stared at the files in his hand, his face a mask of disbelief. “Are you sure this data is

accurate?”
