Chapter 346 Triny’s Jealousy
Finished
Cameron stared at the two of them while stuffing a sandwich into his mouth, chewing noisily as he mumbled, “Don’t mind me, you two just carry on.” Then he grabbed the glass of milk on the table and downed half of it.
“What did you get up to last night?” Lillian asked curiously.
Cameron swallowed hard before answering. “Don’t even bring it up. After offending you yesterday, I went to some friends for advice. They bled me dry, kept me up all night, and this is the result. I haven’t even eaten since this morning p>
He reached for another piece of bread and wolfed it down.
Louis chuckled from the side. “Mr. Cameron, slow down. I’ll have the kitchen prepare something more for you.” With that, he turned and walked toward the kitchen.
Sebastian shot Cameron a look of disdain. “Hurry up and finish, then get out p>
Cameron grinned, unfazed. “Sebastian, I can’t leave just yet. I have to redeem myself, don’t I?” He turned to Lillian with a fawning smile. “Lillian, I know how much you care about Wargod. I can’t do much to help, but I can give you some information. In mid-September, the president of Philips Corp will be coming to Kingston to attend Million Corp Studios’ anniversary banquet. That’s when we’ll finalize the decisions for Wargod. I can introduce you to him then p>
Lillian’s expression shifted, thoughtful now. She had already resigned herself to losing this chance, but Cameron’s words rekindled a spark of hope. If there was an opening, why not take it? “All right. Make sure you let me know p>
Cameron lifted his milk glass with a grin. “Here’s to your success p>
Later that afternoon, Sebastian drove Lillian to her office building. He leaned over, unfastened her seat belt for her, and said, “I’ll come pick you up when you’re finished p>
Lillian reached into the back seat for her bag. “No need. I don’t know how late I’ll be working tonight. When I’m done, I’ll just grab a cab home. Don’t worry p>
Sebastian brushed a kiss against her forehead, his smile warm. “My little girl makes things far too easy on me. That won’t do. Call me when you’re done, all right p>
Looking at the tenderness in his eyes, she couldn’t help but laugh softly. “Fine. I’ll call.” She got out of the car and walked toward the building.
Not far away, in a parked sports car, Triny’s eyes burned as she watched the scene.
She had spent the whole night mustering her courage, deciding she would go to Ravenwood
1/2
Manor this morning to confess her feelings. But before she even reached the gates, Sebastian’s car drove out. She followed on impulse-only to witness a sight that shattered her heart completely. That look in his eyes, the warmth, the indulgence, the way he gazed at the other woman… all the courage she had built up collapsed in an instant.
Her grip on the steering wheel tightened until her knuckles turned white. She couldn’t remember how much effort it took to force down the surge of jealousy clawing up her chest. If this was how things stood, she would have to bide her time and plan carefully.
Up in the top-floor office of Skyreach Group, Lillian stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows, watching as the sports car sped away. A cold smile curved at her lips. She had noticed the tail from the moment they left Ravenwood Manor-there was no way someone could know she lived there. That left only one explanation: Sebastian.
Wayne knocked and entered, finding her lost in thought by the window. “What’s the matter?” he asked.
Lillian’s smile was sharp. “Nothing. Just admiring the peach blossoms.” She walked back toward her desk.
“Peach blossoms?” Wayne frowned. “But it isn’t peach blossom season p>
Lillian picked up the folder on her desk, her smile widening. “Haven’t you heard the saying? Peach blossoms bloom everywhere, anytime, as long as the soil is rich enough. And my favorite thing to do… is to scorch them before they spread p>
