Unmasked My CEO Ex-Husband’s Regret novel Chapter 360

"I wouldn't."

Sebastian replied without a moment's hesitation.

"You have every right to say no. Whatever you decide, I'll respect it."

It was exactly what Melody had hoped to hear, and her face lit up with pure joy.

"Mommy, Mommy!"

Melody clutched the phone, bounding over to Elara to share the news. "Sebastian said he wouldn't be mad at me!"

The message had played on speaker, so Elara had heard every word, but she played along, feigning a look of delighted surprise. "Really?"

"Yeah!"

Melody nodded vigorously and tapped the voice memo again. "Listen, he said it himself."

Elara listened attentively before asking, "Does that make you happy, sweetie?"

"Very happy."

The little girl made no effort to hide her beaming smile.

Suddenly feeling playful, she held down the record button and sent another message. "Sebastian, would you be sad if I said no?"

Sebastian replied instantly. "I would. I'm actually feeling pretty down right now."

"Hehe."

Melody giggled brightly, holding the phone in both hands as she replayed his voice, completely delighted.

Elara lovingly ruffled her daughter's hair. "You shouldn't tease Sebastian like that."

"Okay."

Melody sheepishly smoothed down her hair, dropping her playful act as she quickly explained herself to him.

"Don't be sad, Sebastian! I didn't say no to your invitation."

"I was just joking around, so please don't be upset."
