Unmasked My CEO Ex-Husband’s Regret novel Chapter 332

He couldn't afford for the IPO to die on the vine, or for the stock to plunge the moment it went public.

Weighed down by these anxieties after dinner, Julian retreated to his study and reached out to Meredith Beckett to gauge the atmosphere at the estate.

Meredith took a long time to reply: [Sebastian came back for dinner tonight. He and Maddox just went into The Manor Library.]

For some inexplicable reason, Julian's heart skipped a nervous beat. He quickly typed: [What are they talking about?]

Meredith: [I have no idea. I just brought them some fruit and drinks, then left.]

[They didn't say anything, but it looks like they're discussing something serious.]

[Do you have any idea what it might be?]

Julian typed out a response, then deleted it. He ultimately decided against exposing Sebastian's twisted obsession with Elara: [No idea. Just curious.]

Sebastian's hidden desires were scandalous. If the golden boy had half a brain, he would bury those feelings deep and do everything in his power to keep Maddox happy.

Volunteering that information to the patriarch?

That would be career suicide.

Julian didn't think Sebastian was that stupid.

Meredith didn't suspect a thing and simply replied: [If you want to know, I'll try to find out for you later.]

Julian accepted the offer: [Thanks.]

At that exact moment, inside The Manor Library of The Beckett Manor.

The supposedly "stupid" Sebastian Vance was currently navigating Maddox's interrogation about marriage.

"Do you have anyone in mind?"

Ever since the tragic loss of his daughter Juliet, Maddox had abandoned his strict, controlling grip on family marriages. He now prioritized their personal happiness above all else.
