Chapter 443
Realizing she’d come to the hospital without telling Sebastian, Caitlin picked up her pace. When she saw him standing there, her heart tightened–was he jealous again?
She quickly walked over and offered an explanation. “Sorry, I meant to call you, but you were in a meeting.
Sebastian, already past the stage of pointless jealousy, smiled and wrapped an arm around her shoulder. No need to explain figureri as much–that’s why I came to pick you up. Everything settled?”
“Yeah.”
He glanced at the thermal container in her hand. Caitlin gave a sheepish smile. “Actually, I didn’t make this it was from Ximena.
“I know. You think your husband’s that petty? Even if you brought him food, I wouldn’t have cared. We owe him, after all, dore’s we
Sebastian flashed a charming smile and planted a kiss on her cheek. This time, he truly meant every word. That unnecessary jealousy from last time had taught him a lesson–he needed to trust her, support her, and be the one who always understood her
“I’m relieved to hear that.”
As long as this overly jealous man didn’t get mad, everything would be fine.
Ximena hadn’t left yet. She was waiting near the hospital parking lot. Seeing Caitlin and Sebastian approach, she stepped forward
“Mr. Vanderbilt, Caitlin…”
“This is yours,” Caitlin handed her the container. “He ate everything and said it was good.”
“Oh… thank you! Thank you so much!”
Ximena accepted it, grateful and emotional.
“No need to thank me.”
Caitlin and Sebastian nodded politely and got into their car.
As they drove, Caitlin told him about everything that had happened that day.
Speaking of Black Hawk, Sebastian said, “I’ve got people digging for leads. If we can figure out his real identity, we might find his weakness.”
“Good. I have to break him.”
Then she asked, “By the way, did they find out who ambushed you in Silverstone? Tyler’s back, right?”
Earlier that day, Caitlin had called Sebastian, and it was Xavi who answered. He mentioned Tyler had returned.
“They did. Just a low–level hitman. Some nobody willing to die for money. Nothing to worry about.”
“But don’t get careless. Your life is way too valuable. Stay low for a while, please.”
Caitlin didn’t want him showing his face in public too boldly. It was too risky.
“I get it. I’ll stick to being your loyal little shadow. I’ll protect you during the day, warm your bed at night–how’s that sound?”

Sebastian gave her a teasing grin. Caitlin pushed his head away playfully. “Just drive, will you?”
“Yes, ma’am, Your Majesty! First, dinner. Then, the premiere. If you don’t show up, Yates is going to cry
“If he doesn’t do well, he’ll be crying anyway.”
They both laughed. Sebastian drove the
to the Shangri–La restaurant in the city, where he’d already reserved a private room,
As they walked in, the host led them toward the back.
At that same moment, at a window table nearby, Zora was having dinner with a man. She noticed Caitlin entering and signaled to the man across from her.
“Look at the door. There she is.”
Abel turned his head and glanced at Caitlin walking through the hallway.
“That’s Caitlin. What do you think?”
Abel smirked, amused. “She looks cold and untouchable, but it’s just an act.”
From what he’d gathered, she didn’t seem that difficult to manipulate.
“Think you can handle her?”
Zora had invited Abel specifically to deal with Caitlin. Her plan was for Abel to wedge himself between Caitlin and Sebastian–to tear them
apart.
“Of course. There’s no woman I can’t handle.”
Abel was pale–skinned, with striking features and mesmerizing eyes. His gentlemanly manners and soft charm made him irresistible to many
women.
He’d gotten where he was thanks to those looks–countless wealthy women had fallen at his feet. Once he had a target, he never failed.
“She’s not like other women.”
“Oh?” He leaned back with a smug look. “You really think there’s a woman I can’t get?”
He took pride in his so–called conquests and thrived on high–stakes challenges. The harder the woman, the more interested he became.
“If you manage to win her over,” Zora said coldly, “I’ll fund your film company and back your IPO.”
“Deal.”
Abel grinned. The offer was too tempting to refuse.
“She’ll be at Yates’s premiere tonight. Make your move.”
“Got it.”
The mention of Yates made Abel’s smile turn sharp. He had old scores to settle with that man, and tonight w
De a start.
In the private room, a romantic candlelit dinner was already prepared.

Only after getting his sweet reward did he take his own seat across from her.
“Try the steak,” he said with a smile.
