Rewrite Her Thrilling Life (Lillian and Sebastian) novel Chapter 899

Uriel laughed softly. "Is that so? It seems I owe Miss Everly a debt of gratitude for her earnest intentions. I should also thank you, Cary, for raising such an exceptional granddaughter who is so concerned for my well-being. However, rest assured that I, Uriel, have never once regretted a choice I've made. Even if I find myself on a wrong path, I have a habit of making it the right one."

Cary stared at Uriel with a sharp, piercing gaze, his lips curling into a cold smirk. "In all these years, your temperament hasn't changed a bit—always so confident and decisive. Confidence is a virtue, but overconfidence is another matter entirely. Times have changed, and it's best to recognize reality. If your stubbornness ends up dragging others down with you, it will be far too late for regrets."

Uriel’s smile turned icy. "That is no concern of yours, Cary. Even if I were to regret it, that would be my own business. Besides, I have full faith in my husband and my son; they have never let me down. Isn't that right?"

Derrick offered a gentle smile. "Of course. Don't worry, we won't start now."

The onlookers exchanged bewildered glances. The situation was becoming increasingly confusing. Cary’s words clearly suggested an impending alliance, yet his exchange with Uriel was riddled with barbs and hostile undercurrents. Were these families merging or going to war? Either way, the drama was becoming quite the spectacle.

"My, I didn't expect the Austin family's banquet to be quite this lively," a clear, elegant voice rang out, tinged with a hint of playful charm.

The crowd turned toward the entrance to see a man and a woman walking in. The girl wore an ice-blue gown that shimmered brilliantly under the crystal chandeliers. The sequins reflected the light like a sea of stars, giving her a dreamlike, ethereal appearance. When guests caught sight of her face, her breathtaking beauty seemed to dim the radiance of everyone else in the room.

The man beside her was tall and handsome, wearing a subtle smile. Every movement exuded elegance and nobility, and his composed, steady aura immediately captivated the women in attendance.

Their arrival naturally piqued everyone's curiosity.
