Boom! Sebastian was woken up by a giant explosion.
Has it begun?
He scanned his surrounding, only to realize that he was still restrained in the basement. The guard who had been watching him was equally shocked by the loud bombing sound. He jumped out of his chair and ran toward Sebastian at once.
According to Eddie’s original plan, this is supposed to be our headquarters. As soon as everything has been carried out successfully in Jadeborough, the troop will return triumphantly. The explosion is completely unexpected. Did the plan change?
The guard scurried to his bed side.
“What do you want?” Sebastian asked coldly.
The guard answered, “I’m surprised at how bold the Jadesons can get. Things were developing so well, yet an accident still happen. What do I want? I surely want to bring you along with me. Do you really think that I’ll hand you over so easily?”
Next, he took out a syringe and a tube of unknown liquid from the drawer beside the bed.
Sebastian’s eyes widened in shock.
“What are you doing? I warn you to think twice if you wish to stay alive. Aren’t you aware of the actual situation outside?” reminded Sebastian while trying hard to suppress his fear.
The guard was stunned. “What do you mean? You know what’s going on outside?”
“As a matter of fact, I do. This is because everything that is happening now is under my control. If you were to let me go now, I’ll guarantee your safety,” Sebastian made a tempting offer.
His words made the guard reconsider his action. Lowering his head, he mulled it over in disbelief. He was really struggling from within, debating the best decision to be made.
Actually, I don’t have a choice, do I? It’s not the first time Sebastian has humiliated us. Even the Chairman views him as his greatest rival.
His position had started to falter upon hearing what Sebastian said, coupled with the bombing sounds heard.
Should I let him go? The guard held the syringe tightly.
“Don’t you worry, I won’t settle the score with you should you let me go. On the contrary, I’ll give you a lump sum, and you can do whatever you want with the money.”
Seeing the sparkle in his eyes, Sebastian followed up with an even better condition.
However, he least expected the stupid guard to still choose Eddie after toying with the idea for so long.
