Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 862

"Really? You've found her?" Sebastian's voice trembled with excitement. He had never shared any details about the person he was searching for, yet Stephanie had managed to find her. How could he not be overwhelmed?

Stephanie nodded firmly. "Yes, come with me."

In the northern slums of the city, two dilapidated houses stood precariously, barely holding together. Outside, a shed was piled high with discarded junk. A woman in ragged clothing was carefully sorting through the scraps.

Stephanie said softly, "I offered to bring her to live at my place, but she refused."

"Thank you," Sebastian said gratefully, then quickly walked toward the woman.

Even though it was just a glimpse of her back, and despite the passage of more than 20 years, Sebastian recognized in an instant that it was his mother. After all, she was the one he had longed to see day and night.

"Mother!" Sebastian called out softly, tears instantly blurring his vision.

Upon hearing that voice, Yuliana's body trembled, and she slowly turned around. The moment her eyes landed on Sebastian, tears streamed down her face, flowing like a broken dam.

"Sebastian, is it really you?" Yuliana's voice quivered, filled with disbelief.

Sebastian fell to his knees with a thud. "Mother, I've let you suffer all these years."

Yuliana quickly helped him to his feet, feeling that she was the one who owed an apology.

After a heartfelt conversation, Sebastian was shocked to learn that his father hadn't died and was also from the Perpetual World.

Over 30 years ago, his father, Billie Wilder, was being hunted and accidentally stumbled into a forbidden ground where he met Yuliana. After some time together, Billie brought Yuliana to the Perpetual World.

At that time, Billie's family was embroiled in internal turmoil, so he couldn't take Yuliana home and chose to temporarily stay in Skyde.

Later, Billie's enemies tracked him down, forcing him to take Yuliana back to the forbidden ground.

Yuliana shook her head. "Your father never mentioned it. He only said he was the scion of the Wilder Clan, and that his family was very powerful. I don't know anything beyond that."

"Mother, don't be sad. I promise I'll find him," Sebastian reassured her.

Then, turning to Stephanie, he said, "Ms. Branch, I'd like to buy a house—something with a small, private courtyard. It doesn't need to be too big. It just needs to be comfortable. Could you recommend a place?"

Stephanie smiled and replied, "Why go through the trouble? Our Branch family has an unused house with a great location and environment. You and your mother are welcome to move in."

Sebastian shook his head and politely declined. "I appreciate your kindness, but I'd prefer to buy one myself. A house that's worth around ten thousand spiritual stones would be sufficient."

After eliminating the Lacuna Sect's Chief Elder and the members of the Harmonia Sect, Sebastian had acquired tens of thousands of spiritual stones.

For an ordinary person, this was an enormous fortune. Ten thousand spiritual stones would be more than enough to buy a decent courtyard house.
