Who would’ve thought Sebastian Reed would drop such a bombshell today?

The conference room exploded in chaos, camera flashes, reporters shouting questions, the sound of heels scraping the floor. Daniel rushed forward, trying to calm everyone down, while Sebastian’s security team quickly escorted him and Evelyn Sinclair off the stage.

The reporters pushed forward, nearly knocking them over as Sebastian and Evelyn hurried toward the exit.

“Miss Sinclair, did you accept it?”

“Since when have you two been together?”

“Are you getting married?”

Daniel threw his body against the door, yelling, “The press conference is over! If you have more questions, contact our communications team!”

He was practically crushed between the door and the crowd, his face red with panic. “Boss, next time you plan to drop a bomb like that, at least give me a heads-up! I almost died out there!”

Sebastian pulled Evelyn into the break room backstage. As soon as the door shut behind them, everything went quiet.

    “It’s not bitter, really. Just a little more,” Sebastian said softly.Evelyn kept her head down, pretending not to hear. Her small, stubborn movements made her look like a sulking child. Sebastian let out a quiet sigh. He felt like he was trying to coax a kid who refused to listen.Silence filled the room for a moment. Evelyn stayed still, not even glancing up. Finally, Sebastian spoke again. “You really don’t want to drink?”She shook her head faintly. Her cheeks were flushed from the alcohol, but her tone stayed firm.“I’ve got a way to make it taste better. Wanna try?”“Huh?” Evelyn lifted her head, confused.Through her blurred vision, she barely saw Sebastian lean forward. He took a small sip of the soup, then moved closer. Before she could react, he pulled her into his arms and pressed his lips to hers. The bitter taste of the medicine mixed with the warm broth as it slid down her throat, leaving her breathless.Evelyn tried to push him away, but her body felt weak. Her fists hi

    “God, this is so good,” Evelyn murmured after tasting a bite of the stir-fried shrimp that had just been served. She picked one up and placed it on Sebastian’s plate. “You should try it.”Sebastian glanced at her briefly, then calmly ate the shrimp she’d given him. “You’re right, it’s good,” he said evenly, his tone flat, but not cold. “If you like it, eat as much as you want.”The sight made Mrs. Reed and Victoria, seated across from them, go completely silent. Everyone in the Reed family knew Sebastian never ate food that had already been touched by someone else. Even during family dinners, he refused to use the same serving spoon as others. He was obsessive about hygiene and food. Yet now, right in front of everyone, he ate something Evelyn had placed on his plate, without the slightest hesitation.Evelyn felt the curious stares around the table and instinctively touched her cheek. “What? Do I have something on my face?”Mrs. Reed quickly regained her composure. “No, dear. Go ahead

  • The Ex-Wife You Tossed, Now a Billionaire’s Queen   Chapter 66. The Night Evelyn Was Tested

    Evelyn sat calmly across from Mrs. Reed, the family matriarch, who occupied the main seat in the living room with the poise of someone used to being obeyed. The air was thick, heavy with unspoken tension, like the quiet before a storm.“Mrs. Reed,” Evelyn began quietly, “you mentioned something about the money I took from the Callahans after my divorce?”Mrs. Reed straightened her back. “Isn’t that a fact?”“It is,” Evelyn replied, her voice steady. “That was what I was entitled to.”Mrs. Reed’s eyes narrowed, her tone cold and sharp. “Entitled? Legally, maybe. But let’s be honest, after tasting luxury, women like you start thinking marrying rich and divorcing well is the fastest way to multiply your fortune. You use your looks like an investment, profit guaranteed, no loss.”Evelyn met her gaze without flinching. “You talk as if marriage itself is just a business deal.”Victoria, who was standing beside Mrs. Reed, cut in sharply. “Watch your tone, Evelyn! Do you realize who you’re ta

  • The Ex-Wife You Tossed, Now a Billionaire’s Queen   Chapter 65. The Dinner Was Anything but Ordinary

    On the other side of the city, at the Reed family estate, the morning moved in quiet rhythm. Mrs. Reed stood in the glass conservatory, watering the blooming roses.“Mom,” Victoria’s voice came softly. “Sebastian said he’s bringing her here tonight. Should we ask what kind of food she likes, so the kitchen can prepare?”Mrs. Reed glanced over her shoulder. “No need. Just make sure the dishes are decent.”“Alright. But… this is just dinner, right? No need to overdo it. Just enough to keep Sebastian’s reputation intact.”Mrs. Reed smiled faintly. “Exactly. Just dinner. But it’s still a good chance to see for myself what kind of woman she really is. What people say might not be true. I want to understand what Sebastian sees in her.”Victoria narrowed her eyes. “I still don’t get what he sees in someone like that… other than her manipulative charm, maybe?”Mrs. Reed’s face hardened. She stopped what she was doing and turned sharply toward her daughter-in-law.“Victoria,” she said flatly.

  • The Ex-Wife You Tossed, Now a Billionaire’s Queen   Chapter 64. The Name She Whispered

    Sebastian stared out the window, his expression calm but his gaze sharp and unreadable. “Some people just don’t know how to stay still,” he said flatly.Daniel, sitting across from him, looked surprised. “What do you mean?”“It’s time to speed things up,” Sebastian replied quietly, not bothering to look at him.Night had fallen over Boston. On the outskirts of the city, a restaurant called Space was about to close. The lights were dim, the music soft. Near the window, a woman sat alone. Her dress caught the glow of the lamps, giving her an air of quiet elegance and intelligence. She looked composed, though her eyes kept drifting toward the clock and occasionally to her phone.A waiter approached with a polite smile. “Excuse me, miss. We’re about to close soon. Is your guest still coming?”The woman smiled faintly, showing no trace of annoyance. “He might be running late. Please, just bring the food first. I’ll wait a little longer.”“Of course,” the waiter said kindly.After he left,

    “I said it’s none of your business, Mr. Reed. You don’t get that, do you?”“You hurt her.”The words hit Harry like a slap. He suddenly realized what had just happened. His gaze dropped to Evelyn’s wrist, still trapped in his grip, where faint red marks were starting to show. His expression stiffened, and he quickly let go. “I’m sorry, Evelyn. I didn’t mean to.”“It’s okay.”Evelyn forced a small smile, then stepped closer to Sebastian and deliberately looped her arm through his. “Harry, I already promised Sebastian I’d have dinner with him. Is there something important you want to talk about? If not, how about you join us? Sebastian’s not a stranger.”The name Sebastian seemed to echo in Harry’s head, and his face instantly went pale.“Harry? What’s wrong?” Evelyn’s voice broke through his daze.Harry blinked, as if snapping out of a trance. “No, it’s nothing. We’ll talk another time.” He glanced at Sebastian briefly, then turned and got into his car. The engine roared to life, and a
