Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 570

**The Billionaire’s Last Obsession series 570**

Within the sleek confines of the Empire Group’s office lounge, two striking figures occupied the space, each radiating a distinct allure that captivated the atmosphere around them.

One man exuded an effortless charm, his polished demeanor and sharp attire suggesting sophistication and confidence. The other, however, commanded attention with an undeniable presence, a blend of power and refinement that seemed to fill the room with an electric tension.

The secretary, a poised woman with an air of professionalism, placed two steaming cups of coffee on the polished table before making a swift exit, leaving the two men to their private conversation.

Sebastian, his piercing gaze fixed on Janus, wasted no time in addressing the matter at hand. “I trust you haven’t graced my office today without a specific agenda in mind,” he remarked, his tone direct and unyielding.

Janus, lifting one of the cups to his lips, inhaled the rich aroma with evident pleasure. “This coffee is nothing short of exquisite. Empire Group truly spares no expense when it comes to hospitality,” he replied, savoring the first sip as if it were a fine wine, allowing the warmth to spread through him.

Sebastian couldn’t help but smirk at the compliment. “What’s the matter? Has Soren Corp tightened its purse strings so much that your discerning palate has begun to wane?” he teased, his eyes glinting with mischief.

Janus set his cup down, leaning back into the plush sofa with a casual grace that belied the tension simmering beneath the surface. “Let’s cut to the chase. I’m here to talk about the land that Soren Corp lost some time ago. I want it back. Name your price—whatever it is, I’ll pay it.” The words hung in the air, heavy with the weight of desperation. If not for the incessant pressure from the board of elders to reclaim that property, he would have never stooped to negotiate with his rival.

Sebastian raised his cup, his demeanor cool and collected. “You’re still quite young, Janus. Don’t tell me you’re already losing your faculties. At that auction, I publicly gifted that land to my fiancée. The entire city witnessed it. Surely, the illustrious Third Young Master Soren hasn’t forgotten such a spectacle?”

A sneer curled Janus’s lips. “So, what you’re suggesting is that I should approach your precious fiancée directly? If it comes to that, I wouldn’t hesitate. Just know, I hope you won’t regret this decision later.”

“Is that so?” Sebastian replied, amusement dancing in his voice, laced with a hint of mockery. “Are you truly that confident in your abilities? Sometimes, confidence can morph into arrogance. That land was a present for my fiancée; the choice is hers to make. If she decides to part with it, I won’t stand in her way.”

The receptionist, maintaining her polite composure, replied, “I’m sorry, miss, but as I’ve mentioned before, without an appointment, Mr. Sebastian cannot see anyone.”

Laney let out a cold, condescending laugh. “Do you even comprehend who I am? If you continue to delay me, just wait—I’ll ensure that Sebastian fires every last one of you,” she threatened, her voice dripping with disdain.

The receptionist’s smile remained unwavering. “I apologize, but it’s company policy. If it’s truly urgent, please feel free to call Mr. Sebastian directly or reach out to Assistant Foster.”

Laney’s expression hardened, her voice turning sharp as a knife. “How dare you! When I become the chairman’s wife, we’ll see how well you smile then.”

Her hand instinctively brushed against her stomach, a surge of pride swelling within her. She was carrying Sebastian’s child, a fact that filled her with an undeniable sense of triumph. There was no way he could turn his back on her now. In families like his, nothing held more weight than the legacy of heirs.
