Unmasked My CEO Ex-Husband’s Regret novel Chapter 313

Julian stared at Sebastian in absolute shock, once again utterly defeated by the man's flawless acting.

Perhaps because Sebastian had always possessed this arrogant, unrestrained streak since childhood, everyone was accustomed to his occasional bouts of madness. Even when Julian was the target of that madness, it had rarely struck him as entirely out of character.

But this time was different. Sebastian was no longer hiding; he had preemptively laid his predatory ambitions bare.

Looking at him now, Julian realized that every single move Sebastian made, every word he spoke, was a calculated performance.

And the worst part was, Julian couldn't expose him.

Because even if he screamed the truth from the rooftops, no one would believe him.

While Julian was lost in his bitter realization, Sebastian casually bent the warped dragonfly wing back into shape.

Perhaps noticing they had been lingering too long, Elara and Jocelyn finished packing and looked over. "Sebastian."

"Coming."

Sebastian lifted his head, instantly dropping the mocking, sinister aura he had directed at Julian. In a heartbeat, his demeanor softened into the bright, eager joy of a man acknowledged by the woman he adored. His eyes sparkled as he looked at Elara, brimming with a tenderness so deep it threatened to spill over.

From a distance, Elara couldn't catch the intense shift in his expression; she simply called out, "Let's head back."

Sebastian's eyes curved into a warm, genuine smile. "Alright, be right there."

He started toward Elara and her family, then paused as if just remembering Julian was still standing there. Turning slightly, he offered a painfully polite farewell. "We'll be going now, Julian!"

He deliberately emphasized the name, coupling it with that same sickeningly sincere smile and a mocking glint in his eyes. Julian felt a violent urge to punch him in the face.

Ignoring him completely, Sebastian walked right past Julian and headed straight for Elara.

Upon reaching them, Sebastian handed the kite to Melody and smoothly took the heavy tote bag from Jocelyn.

Jocelyn didn't hesitate; the moment he reached for it, she handed it over.

It certainly didn't look like the first time they had shared this effortless routine.
