Unmasked My CEO Ex-Husband’s Regret novel Chapter 353

Elara dropped several not-so-subtle hints that theme parks weren't exclusively for children, gently suggesting he give the tickets to a young couple at the office instead.

Ultimately, she had caught onto his underlying motives, gently pushing back and testing the waters.

Otherwise, she could have just told him to give them to a 'colleague.' Why specifically bring up couples?

Sebastian read between the lines instantly. Forced to choose between "seeing Elara this weekend" and "backing off so he didn't make her uncomfortable," he decisively chose the latter.

[Fair enough.]

He knew exactly when to retreat, but he wasn't about to burn the bridge completely. [I'll hold onto the tickets for now. Once you've figured out your schedule, let me know if I should give them away. What if Melody actually wants to go?]

[It's winter break; tickets to the park are practically impossible to get right now.]

"..."

Elara thought to herself: If I remember correctly, Vance Dynamics has a massive corporate partnership with Kingsport Adventure Park. Are you really trying to tell me a billionaire CEO would struggle to get his hands on a few tickets?

But calling him out on his blatant capitalist privilege felt a little too aggressive. It wasn't exactly setting a good example, even if it was just an internal monologue.

Swallowing her sarcastic retort, she typed back: [Alright then, whatever you think is best.]

Refusing to let it die, Sebastian replied: [Sounds good. I'll wait for the good news.]

"..."

Please don't.

Despite her quiet grumbling, once she wrapped up the conversation and finalized the remaining legal details with Gillian, she still went to find Melody.

She didn't hide anything or sugarcoat the details. She honestly explained that Sebastian had theme park tickets and had invited them to go.

Melody, who had been focused on a drawing, paused and looked up at her. She processed the information for a long moment before solemnly asking, "Is Sebastian going too?"

Elara nodded. "Yes, that's what he said."

Melody: "Can grandma come?"

"Grandma can absolutely come."

After asking her questions, Melody fell silent.
