Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1965

"That's impossible!" Wynn was agitated. "Seamus, how could you suspect me?! I...

"That day, Morpheus got hurt, and Sephy wasn't with him. He almost lost his life! I was busy taking care of him. How could I have the time and energy to plot against you guys? Besides..."

Wynn was incoherent, both angry and aggrieved. "Besides, I don't understand what you mean by an update! What kind of update am I supposedly communicating to Sephy? What information am I passing on?"

Wynn felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, and his voice trembled as he fought back tears. He had come to the meeting today with great excitement, thinking that someone like him didn't deserve much, but just seeing Seamus was good enough... Yet it was all his wishful thinking.

Seamus doubted and questioned him right from the start, not giving him any chance to breathe.

"I don't understand what you're saying," Wynn said as he calmed down. "But anyway, I haven't done anything you're accusing me of!"

"Okay, don't be angry. I was hasty with my words." Seamus pushed the coffee he had ordered toward Wynn.

He had seen Wynn drink this kind of coffee in Morpheus' home. It was a local blend from Flinge. Wynn always added a bit of vanilla extract to it when he drank, so Seamus had instructed the bartender to add some vanilla extract to the coffee as well today.

"Um... is it to your taste?"

When Seamus smiled at Wynn, the latter was flooded with complex emotions. "Seamus..."

"I've misunderstood." Seamus' gaze was sincere. "Sephy is a naive girl, and I'm just afraid she'll get hurt."

"Weren't you supposed to leave? What happened?"

"That night... We ran into some trouble."

"What do you mean by updating Sephy?"

"Well..." Seamus smiled but didn't respond. He didn't need Wynn to know about that. His reaction had satisfied him.
