Chapter 470: Seb’s Nemesis
Sab’s jaw clenched as he saw the woman standing in front of him. She looked older now, the innocence on her face gone and yet, she was as coldly beautiful as ever. The large sunglasses covered her eyes and half her face but even through it, he could feel her gaze on him.
Just when he was about to ignore her existence and turn around, she called out his name," "Sebastian Frost. Is that you? What a pleasant surprise. What are you doing here?"
His eyebrow raised in sarcasm as he shrugged," I came here for a stroll. I was craving some anitseptic smelling air. Now, if you’ll excuse me."
As he walked past Vivienne, he breathed a sigh of relief, but it was shortlived as Vivienne called out," How is your woman doing?", her voice cutting through the silence.
Sebastian’s steps faltered for a moment, his mind racing as he struggled to process her question. "My... woman?" he repeated, the word feeling foreign on his tongue.
Sebastian’s mind raced as worried thoughts raced through his mind as he tried to grasp the implications of Vivienne’s question. Did she already know about Olivia? Had she found out the truth? About their marriage? And their babies? The possibility sent a chill down his spine.
He forced himself to maintain his composure as he turned to face Vivienne, his expression guarded. "What do you mean, Vivienne?"
A sly smile curved her lips as she looked at his face, "Oh my. I never thought that you would really fall for her. Look at how worried you are, guarded, as if I would your precious Emma." She laughed condescendingly and turned around," I cannot believe that you passed the test. The accident was so worth it."
Because her back was already turned, she missed the look of shock that passed for a moment over his face. And then two quick realizations- first that she thought Emma was his woman and secondly she was the one responsible for her accident. Just as he had suspected!
"I don’t know what game you’re playing, Vivienne, or why you have sought me out," Sebastian said, his tone low and measured. "But whatever it is, stay away from Emma. She has nothing to do with you."
"Relax. I won’t be touching her anymore I just needed to make sure that you really were involved with this woman, see with my own eyes if you would come for her. And now I know. She had a small accident and here you are, waiting for her to wake up while avoiding the paparazzi. Your assistant is already investigating diligently. You really do care for her. Kudos to you. Are you in love with her?"
