Chapter 158
Tears streamed down Lillian’s face as she was in a dilemma. Upon seeing her in distress, Sebastian’s heart ached. He glared icily at Elijah and the others.
“I remember warning you before. If you dare pressure her again, don’t expect me to hold back,” Sebastian said sternly.
Evelyn scoffed. “What are you going to do? Hit me?” She believed Sebastian’s boldness earlier stemmed solely from his engagement to Jenny. Now that the engagement was off, she assumed he’d lost his nerve.
Sebastian sneered, “If we were family, I’d respect you as an elder and wouldn’t lay a finger on you. But if that’s not the case, I wouldn’t mind teaching you a lesson.” “You wouldn’t dare! Evelyn spat back.
“I’ve killed before; hitting someone is nothing. Are you sure you want to test me?” Sebastian smirked.
Evelyn recalled, her voice trembling, “Sebastian, the Cadwells are no longer backing you. How could you still be so arrogant?”
Sebastian chuckled. “If I want to do as I wish, I don’t need anyone’s support. And if I get angry, the whole world will tremble “Se obnoxious!”
“Shameless!”
The Smiths were outraged but also clearly frightened. In their eyes, Sebastian was not just a madman, but a powerful and dangerous one.
Fearing his retaliation, they refrained from pushing Lillian to make a choice.
They didn’t want to risk provolding his wrath, which could potentially be lethal. Hence, they abandoned the idea of forcing a divorce.
Ito Misty Oakvilla.
Sebastian didn’t stay at the Smiths any longer than necessary. He had urgent matters to attend to. After leaving, he called Hydra to pick him up, and they headed to Mi
He also sent the coordinates that Jenny had green him to Drakaria, ordering him to conduct a search.
Perched atop the Misty Oak Mountain, Misty Oak Villa was the most mysterious place in Ravenview City,
Blessed with breathtaking scenery and abundant spiritual energy, it was a haven for cultivators seeking to hone their skills..
Yet, not a single sou dared venture within its premises, for Misty ook villa was owned by the Quirrel family.
The Quirrel family was a reclusive clan that maintained a strict veil of secrecy. As such, most people didn’t know of the quirrels existence. Their prowess surpassed even that of the Hunter family, the strongest family in Wave City.
The head of the Quirrel family, Joseph Quirrel, was the undisputed wealthiest man in Wave City, with assets exceeding hundreds of billions of dollars.
When Sebastian arrived at Misty Oak Villa, a group of people were already waiting at the entrance. The leader, a middle–aged man, was none other than Joseph
After Sebastian stepped out of the car, Joseph immediately led everyone to greet him. “Greetings, Supreme One!
“You may rise,” Sebastian ocdered.
“Thank you, Supreme One!”
Next, Joseph and his men ushered Sebastian and Hydra into Misty Oak Villa Joseph had recently visited Phoenix Corporation to give Sebastian Misty Oak Villa as a sanctuary for his cultivation
Sebastian had initially declined the offer.
However, he’d recognized Misty Oak Villa’s strategic location atop the mountain, making it both defensible and difficult to infiltrate
Hence, he’d fecided to use it as a prison for Elena. That would eliminate the risk of members of Novastar Organization attempting a secret rescue mission.
Sebastian had anticipated that the head of Novastar Organization would seek to exchange Elena for the amulet, but days had passed without any sign of activity from Novastar Organization.
ience, Sebastian intended
to interrogate Elena and gain a clearer understanding of the situation.
Even though she had been confined to a single room, Sebastian had refined from inflicting any physical harm on Elena. Her days were relatively comfortable, albeit devoid of
freedom.
*Why has your father not exchanged the andet for your release it? selatan inquired bluntly.
