Chapter 259 Go After Her

The hearts of the mother and daughter duo were hanging in suspense. “However?”

Madelyn suddenly proposed in a serious tone, “However, you must promise me something. The project proposal you want me to recommend absolutely canno be subpar. Otherwise, I won’t be able to help you.

much.

After all, Sebastian was no fool, especially when it came to business matters. He was more serious and cautious than anything else.

Scarlet, of course, understood this. She nodded solemnly. “Rest assured, Ms. Thornton. We are aware that Lockhart Group has high standards in this regard. Therefore, we will certainly create a flawless proposal.”

“All right, then.”

Upon hearing these words, Madelyn reached into her bag and pulled out her business card. “This is my card.”

Scarlet paused for a moment before quickly presenting her own. “Ms. Thornton, it’s a pleasure to work with you

“It’s a pleasure working together,” Madelyn said with a smile.

After leaving the café, Madelyn came looking for Sebastian ten minutes later at Lockhart Group.

As soon as she pushed the door open, she caught sight of Sebastian, who looked as if he’d stepped straight out of a comic book due to his striking good looks. A broad smile immediately spread across her face. “Sebastian, have you finished your work?”

“No.” Sebastian responded nonchalantly.

Once he finished speaking, he suddenly furrowed his brows, staring intently at Madelyn. “Didn’t I tell you to stay home and rest, not to run around?”

Sebastian wasn’t pleased. The wound on her shoulder hasn’t even healed yet. What on earth is this woman trying to do?

Madelyn had actually snuck out, so she was somewhat embarrassed at the moment. All she could do was give a sheepish laugh and playfully say, “Sebastian, don’t worry about me. My shoulder doesn’t hurt anymore. It’s fine. By the way, have you had dinner yet?

The topic changed incredibly fast.

“You… Sebastian was originally quite upset, but seeing this girl’s playful and cheerful demeanor, he found himself unable to stay angry.

Helplessly, he could only murmur, “I haven’t eaten.”

Madelyn wore a clever smile, her eyes twinkling. “How about we grab dinner together once you’re done with your work?”

Sebastian nodded in response. Just as he was about to agree, a sudden commotion erupted from outside

the door.

Overwhelmed with agitation, Wesley barged in recklessly. As soon as he walked in, he blurted out in anger, “Sebastian, why did you send Harriet abroad?”

Sebastian frowned, evidently displeased with Wesley’s sudden intrusion.

Thus, he said in a businesslike manner, “The overseas branch has encountered financial issues. As the company’s finance manager, Harriet has taken action to address the situation. Is there a problem?”

Sebastian’s attitude was so cold it could freeze one to the core.

Wesley didn’t dare to argue any further, but his face clearly showed some displeasure.

At that moment. Madelyn recalled the night when Harriet went to her and told her she was going abroad.

Madelyn had initially thought that Harriet wanted to go abroad herself. However, to her surprise, it turned out that she was actually transferred by Sebastian.

Realizing what had happened, Madelyn was simply delighted. A smile spread across her face, one she couldn’t contain.

Unable to hold back, she sneered from the side. “Tsk! What’s the matter? Feeling uncomfortable because you can’t see your lover?”

“What are you blabbering about?” Wesley shot her an angry glare, his eyes filled with hostility.

Madelyn, however, was unfazed. “Why are you looking at me like that? Do you want me to present you with a trophy for being Clusia’s best love saint?” she asked.

“Madelyn!” Wesley’s anger intensified.

Madelyn remained dismissive. “Tsk! What’s the use of just getting mad at me? If you like her, go after her! I really don’t get it. Aren’t you tired of seeing her around other men all day? If you don’t seize the opportunity yourself, why are you blaming us for moving her away?”

After she finished speaking, Madelyn gave Sebastian a wronged look. “Sebastian, don’t you agree?” she

asked.

Sebastian wore an indifferent expression, refraining from making any comments.

At that moment, Wesley’s face had already turned sour. Seeing the young couple breathing in unison, he was instantly livid. Fuming, he turned on his heel and stormed off.

Madelyn stood her ground, watching his figure fade away. She huffed softly and remarked, “I was only telling the truth, and he still has the audacity to get upset.

After speaking, she couldn’t resist playfully sticking out her tongue and pulling a goofy face.

Sebastian stood there, finding the whole situation rather amusing. This girl….

Later on, after Sebastian finally finished his work, he planned to take Madelyn out for dinner.

Madelyn was over the moon, bouncing around him with joy, suggesting they try out a newly discovered restaurant serving Japriumian cuisine. Her blissful expression was so innocent, and she looked like a child.

However, the

moment she descended the stairs, her cheerful expression quickly turned into a look of

displeasure.

That was because Janessa was waiting at the entrance of the office. As soon as she saw Schastian, she immediately approached him and called out, “Sebastian!”

At the same time, she saw Madelyn.

Janessa’s gaze dimmed, her discomfort clearly showing “Madelyn, you’re here…”

Madelyn could only scoff in disbelief, too indifferent to even bother responding

Sebastian hadn’t anticipated Janessa’s arrival. His gaze field a clear hint of displeasure, yet he still managed to ask politely. “Ms. Sherritt, what brings you here?”

His demeanor was exceptionally cold.

The color drained from Janessa’s face, leaving her no choice but to clear her throat awkwardly. “Sebastian, there are some things I need to discuss with you.”

“What things?” Sebastian asked openly.

Clearly, he was unwilling to waste even a single second of his time on people who didn’t matter.

Janessa instantly felt even more awkward, but she had no choice but to pluck up her courage and say. “Sebastian, actually, I wanted to discuss our companies collaborative project with you. I’ve recently come up with a great idea, and if you’re interested, why don’t we find a place to have dinner and talk about it in detail?”

“No.” Sebastian responded without hesitation.

Janessa was utterly bewildered.

Sebastian kept a straight face and said, “Since you want to collaborate with me, you should know that appointments are necessary for discussions with me. Also, for such matters in the future, simply contact my assistant. If he deems your project feasible, he will naturally bring it to my attention, saving you the trouble of making a fruitless trip to see me.”

As he spoke, Sebastian gently took Madelyn’s delicate hand in his own. “Ms. Sherritt, if you have no other business, Madelyn and I are planning to go out for dinner. We wouldn’t want to keep you,” he said.

After that, the two of them bypassed Janessa and left directly.

Madelyn was led away by the hand, a sweetness she couldn’t put into words Gilling her heart.

She then turned back to Janessa and gave her a smile. Janessa, sorry. We have to go now.”

After Madelyn finished speaking, the two of them got to the car, one in front and the other behind.

Sebastian even went as far as to open the car door for Madelyn and fasten her seatbelt, and only then did he get into the car himself.

Janessa watched the scene unfold before her eyes, a mix of jealousy and anger surging within her. She found it hard to catch her breath, so much so that for a moment, she was too furious to even find the words to describe her feelings. Clearly, Sebastian has just rejected me in a roundabout way! Even though there’s clearly time to take Madelyn out for a meal, why is there no time to listen to my project proposal? What’s with his
