The older couple never expected Sebastian to still harbor the delusion of remarrying Lillian. It was sheer lunacy.
They had exhausted every possible avenue to preserve a good relationship with Lillian, hoping she might throw the Blake Group a lifeline in the future. Instead, she had coldly and decisively severed all ties with them.
Worse, they had seen her new partner with their own eyes. A quick background check on Leonard Prescott had left them reeling. The Prescott family's wealth and influence dwarfed the Blakes in every conceivable metric. Leonard was formidable, fiercely protective of Lillian, and had literally saved her life when they bonded over their shared traumas.
Did Sebastian honestly think he could snatch a woman away from a titan like that? Especially when he was the one who had shattered Lillian's heart into a million pieces?
Old Mr. Blake inhaled sharply. "Now you realize your mistake? Where was this clarity years ago? We begged you to cherish Lillian, and you waited until she was completely gone to suddenly care! You need a severe reality check. Do you truly believe she's just sitting around waiting for you? Has it not occurred to you that she has moved on with someone else?"
The old man shook his head in absolute disappointment and marched up the stairs, done with the conversation.
