Chapter 640 Take Care
Hearing this, Susan was stunned and said, "It really wasn't you? Then who did it? Did George offend someone?"
Seb's eyes, filled with sadness, gazed at Susan.
At this moment, Susan realized Seb's emotions.
She believed Seb's words. He had no reason to deceive her, and she felt a bit regretful. Why did she believe Maria so easily when she said it was Seb? She hadn't even considered that Seb's character wouldn't allow him to do such despicable things.
The next moment, Susan lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, I wrongly accused you."
Hearing this, Seb remained silent.
Susan looked up and said, "What? Are you still mad at me? I was just anxious at the time and didn't think it through..."
As Susan was explaining, Seb interrupted her, "I'll accept your apology this time, but don't let it happen again!"
Hearing this, Susan smiled slightly.
Seeing her smile, Seb reached out and stroked her hair, his eyes radiating infinite tenderness.
At this moment, Susan frowned and said, "By the way, since it wasn't you, how did you get the person who falsely accused George to confess?"
"Because I already knew the mastermind behind it. He got scared and abandoned the accuser. The accuser had no choice but to tell the truth, and I helped reduce his charges to the minimum and promised him some money," Seb said with a smile.
Susan nodded. "No matter what, you helped George. If I get the chance, I'll tell him about this. It might help clear up the misunderstanding between you two."
"I don't care how George sees me. I just don't want you to get involved in their matters anymore. He is already married. I know you'll keep your distance from him, and he's using this method to show he has no improper intentions towards you," Seb said.
"In that case, you shouldn't hold a grudge against George anymore. I was the one who mishandled things." Susan said, trying to speak for George.
Seb smiled and said, "I actually want to reconcile with him."
"By the way, do you want to know who the mastermind is?" Seb suddenly asked.
"Who?" Hearing Seb's question, Susan knew it wasn't simple.
"Andrew," Seb replied.
Hearing this, Susan stared blankly at Seb for a few seconds before asking, "How could it be him? What does he gain from this?"
No wonder Seb spoke so rudely to Andrew earlier. It wasn't just because Andrew was competing with him for power in the Prosperity Group, but because Andrew used such despicable means against George.
"I don't quite understand either. He's always targeting me. Is he trying to frame me and cause a conflict between George and me? But the truth will come out sooner or later. I have time, and I'll be watching him. I'm just a bit worried about Rylee," Seb said, frowning.
"Andrew indeed has ill intentions, but by targeting him in front of Rylee, you'll only make her misunderstand that you have a grudge against Andrew. This will, in turn, allow Andrew to drive a wedge between you and Rylee," Susan advised.
At this moment, Seb sighed. "I can't tell Rylee about these things. She's very happy with Andrew now. Andrew is the person she trusts the most. Dad is not around, and Mom has passed away. Rylee has been in a bad mood. If she finds out about Andrew, I'm afraid she won't be able to handle it."
Hearing this, Susan was deeply moved by Seb's concern and love for Rylee. But she knew Andrew too well; he wouldn't treat Rylee well, especially after he achieved success and fame.
"But Rylee is so naive. I'm afraid she'll trust Andrew too much and get deeply hurt," Susan said worriedly, frowning.
Seb hesitated for a moment and then said, "Let her have this happiness, for now. Besides, Andrew does have some feelings for Rylee. I don't think he'll be too harsh on her."
Susan wanted to say something but kept silent.
Because Seb didn't know that Andrew was with Rylee just for the Anderson family's money and status, and he also didn't know that Andrew didn't truly love Rylee. But she couldn't say these things outright; she could only try to subtly remind Seb.
And Seb didn't know that she and Andrew had once dated, and she didn't need to tell him now to avoid further complications. She had nothing to do with Andrew anymore.
After a moment of silence, Seb suddenly grabbed Susan's waist with one hand and pulled her body close to his chest!
Susan couldn't help but feel nervous. His arm was strong and carried a hint of dominance.
"Susan, is it really impossible for us to be together?" Seb asked, staring at Susan with pained eyes.
Hearing this, Susan didn't dare to look up at him, knowing his eyes would be filled with sorrow. She didn't want to see him sad.
Seeing that Susan didn't answer for a long time, Seb gradually let go of his hand on her waist.
At this moment, the lights in the elevator suddenly came on!
Susan and Seb's eyes were momentarily blinded by the bright light, and the next moment, the elevator started operating normally, but it kept going up.
As Susan and Seb were puzzled, a female voice suddenly came through the elevator's speaker.
"Passengers in the elevator, we apologize for the temporary malfunction. The issue has been resolved, and the elevator will go straight to the top floor. You can then press any button to go to your desired floor. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. Goodbye!"
After the announcement, Susan breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the elevator reached the top floor, and the doors opened!
Susan and Seb stared at each other for a moment. No one else got in, and the doors closed again.
Seb then pressed the button for the first floor, and the elevator started descending.
Susan knew that in half a minute, the elevator would reach the first floor, and she and Seb would part ways again.
It would be a lie to say she wasn't sad. At this moment, Susan couldn't suppress her feelings anymore.
The next moment, Susan stepped forward, wrapped her arms around Seb's neck, and hugged him tightly!
Seb, who was suddenly hugged, frowned slightly, his eyes showing complex emotions.
"Seb, please take good care of yourself in the future!" Susan murmured in his ear.
