Mending a Broken Love (Sebastian and Roxanne) novel Chapter 109

Though Roxanne said she was happy, deep down, she was full of disdain. It seemed to her like Sebastian didn't dare to answer the call. If he picked up and heard Liana cry and put on an act, could he still hold his ground? He probably knew he couldn't, which was why he didn't answer.

Roxanne had overestimated Sebastian. She had thought he would face it head-on, but instead, he chose to avoid answering Liana's calls. How naive she had been.

Liana was obsessive and persistent. If Sebastian had picked up her calls and coaxed her gently, she might not have gone so extreme. But the more he avoided her, even going to the point of blocking her, the more he'd push her to the edge. And that kind of pressure would only push Liana into doing something even more unhinged.

Roxanne couldn't wait for the show to begin.

Sebastian heard her say she was happy, and tenderness briefly appeared on his usually cold face. He said slowly, "There's a gala the day after tomorrow. Come with me. After dinner, I'll take you to pick out a dress."

"The day after tomorrow?"

Her flight was at 11:00 pm that day.

"Yeah. It's from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm."

Alright. That would be enough time.

Roxanne nodded obediently. "Okay."

The atmosphere between them was surprisingly harmonious today. There was a sense of the tension between them easing up.

After dinner, Sebastian took her to the most upscale boutique in town. The store was filled with luxury designer gowns, many of them one-of-a-kind.

As soon as Sebastian walked in, Vanessa Langford eagerly came forward to assist.

"Find her a dress," Sebastian said.

"Yes, Mr. Hayes."

Vanessa, a sharp 30-year-old woman, greeted them with a polished smile. She then asked, "Ms. Sawyer, do you have any specific preferences?"

Roxanne answered casually, "Long and one of a kind."
