“Ask your mom to follow me so she can earn some money to treat your dad.”
“Huh?”
Vivian stared at Sebastian with big, sparkly eyes. She didn’t understand what he was saying.
Sasha, who was busy packing her luggage, lifted her head puzzledly.
Is he still angry?
Meanwhile, at the Red Pavilion in Jadeborough.
Stephen had heard the news from Jetroina, leaving him feeling restless for the entire night.
“That b*stard, Sebastian! We have always treated him well, haven’t we? Why would he leave such a mess for us at Jetroina? Is he planning to go against us?”
Jasmine was unable to rest well too. Hence, her insufficient rest and her simmering anger at Sebastian exploded early in the morning.
Good?
Has she ever treated him decently?
Isn’t she the one who planned to murder him every time?
Kira scoffed internally at Jasmine’s outburst.
“Enough. Stop talking. Can’t you do anything else other than grumble?”
Stephen scolded Jasmine before leaving for the Oceanic Estate urgently.
If I don’t placate Dad for the shit that blew up in Jetroina, I’ll be doomed.
Jasmine’s anger surged as Stephen left.
“What’s with his attitude? How can he scold me? Is he telling me I haven’t done anything? I was the one who arranged for Sebastian’s demise twice! How am I the one who hasn’t done anything!”
She was practically yelling in the living room like a raging beast.
Kira came over to stop her.
“Aunt Jasmine, please keep your voice down. You wouldn’t want anyone to overhear you, do you? Aren’t you afraid that word of this will spread to the Oceanic Estate?”
Jasmine finally halted her yelling at Kira’s reminder.
“I can’t help it. I’m just… so mad!”
“Yes, I understand. But we can’t lose our footing, no matter how terrible the situation gets. We should think of a solution as of this moment.”
Kira began analyzing the situation for Jasmine.
Jasmine glanced at her.
What’s with her sudden change of attitude?
I have never seen her so enthusiastic before. She would usually make sarcastic remarks, such as she couldn’t come up with a solution due to her lack of intelligence, or she would come up with excuses to push her responsibilities away.
So, what’s different today?
Jasmine fixed her gaze at her niece.
“All right. What would you suggest to solve the current situation, then?”
