Chapter 211

Yvonne, the cheeky girl, figured it out in a heartbeat. Was she just too sharp, or was he too eager?

“Are you kidding? You think you’re being subtle?” Yvonne shot back.

“I’m asking you, okay? No need to flip out on me.” Sebastian furrowed his brow. “Just answer my question.”

Yvonne replied, “Yep, you’re as clear as day. One glance, and I could tell there was something off between you two,”

“Something off between us?” Sebastian propped his chin on the table edge. Then, he turned around, his expression somewhat awkward. ” So, do you think it’s just me who’s off, or…”

He paused, looking a bit embarrassed, but there was an urgency to know the answer.

Yvonne had never seen her brother so flustered in all her years. It turned out that even the mighty CEO of Skycrest Enterprise could be at a loss when he liked a woman.
