The Doormat Wife’s Ultimate Glow-Up novel Chapter 185

“She’s probably already got someone checking into what’s going on with us and Reese. Once she’s sure, even if she doesn’t want to help, she’ll come to us first.”

“Enemy of my enemy, right?”

Sebastian had no idea Leslie had already talked to Dylon. After seeing Reese tonight, he didn’t pay attention to anyone else. With him there, the people crowding around Reese quietly drifted away. Even Alan found an excuse to go mingle, leaving the two of them alone.

Reese looked at the man practically glued to her side and finally couldn’t take it anymore. “Sebastian, what are you doing?”

He looked down at her. With her eyes narrowed and her arms crossed, she looked like an annoyed kitten. He couldn’t help but smile.

“You said before you couldn’t feel my love. I’m trying to change that.”

Reese let out a cold, sarcastic laugh. “Aren’t you worried someone will find out about us?”

“Nope.” He leaned in, clinking his glass against hers. “Honestly, I’d rather people knew.

“If you want, I’ll tell everyone right now you’re my wife.

“I’ve already told Brady to handle it. From now on, I’m out of all business between Ratcliff Global and Big X.

“I know you don’t like my relationship with Leslie. I’ll keep my distance from her.”

Reese blinked in surprise. She hadn’t expected him to go this far, but she wasn’t naive enough to think he’d really change. Once your heart turns cold, it’s over.

“You don’t have to do any of that,” she said quietly.

They were almost divorced anyway. She honestly didn’t care anymore.

Just then, Reese felt someone staring at her. She looked up and locked eyes with Leslie across the room. Leslie didn’t look away—she raised her glass with a knowing, almost taunting smile. It was the kind of challenge only another woman would recognize.

Reese looked away. The last thing she wanted was another round of pointless drama.

“Leslie’s waiting for you over there. Go on. Don’t keep her waiting,” Reese said.
