Chapter 219 Keep A Close Watch

At Lockhart Group. Sebastian glanced at his watch, realizing it was nearly right clock

He wondered what Madelyn was up to, so he decided to make a phone call to inquire. Just as he was about to do so, there was a knock at the door.

“Come in. Sebastian said in a cold tone.

Harriet pushed the door open and walked in.

“Sebastian, you haven’t eaten yet, have you? I just went out and got you something. It’s all your favorite dishes. Give it a try.” Harriet placed a sky–blue thermos lask on Sebastian’s table.

At that moment, Wesley was seated on the couch, watching the scene unfold before him with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

“Thanks. Just leave it here. You can go on with your tasks.” Sebastian glanced indifferently at the takeout

boxes.

Harriet felt a bit embarrassed, but she had no intention of leaving.

Standing by the table, she couldn’t help but voice her concerns. “Sebastian, I understand you’re swamped with work, but you can’t neglect your health. You should still eat something when it’s mealtime.”

Sebastian simply hummed noncommittally, offering no further response.

The embarrassment intensified on the strikingly beautiful face of Harriet.

Just then, a bright, youthful female voice suddenly echoed from the entrance. “Sebastian, I’m sorry for keeping you waiting so long!”

Madelyn barged into the room in a flurry.

As soon as she walked through the door, her gaze immediately fell upon the takeout boxes on the table.

After taking another look at Harriet, Madelyn immediately understood what was going on.

Harriet was surprised that Madelyn would actually show up at such a time, which instantly soured her mood considerably.

Madelyn cheerfully asked, “Oh, who brought this food? It smells so good! May I have some?”

Seeing her childlike demeanor, Sebastian had no intention of refusing. He simply nodded and said, “Sure.”

“Fantastic!” Madelyn immediately broke into a radiant smile, unabashedly opening the takeout boxes. She then picked up a fork and began to cat heartily, taking big mouthfuls of pasta.
