Devin clenched his fists. This was the first time he realized how useless and weak he looked in front of Sebastian.
“What are you thinking about, Devin?” Sasha asked him out of concern when she noticed that there was something off about him.
Then, he took the initiative to help her analyze the upcoming situation for the Jadesons.
Worry was written all over Sasha’s face when she heard that.
“What should we do? Will he be all right?”
“He’ll be fine, so don’t worry. No matter what happens, we still have Grandpa. Otherwise, Sebastian wouldn’t have returned to the army.”
This was rather strange.
It was as if he had returned to the army not for training, but as a hiding spot after getting into trouble. After that, he left a mess for the old man to pick up after him.
Sigh!
Sasha did not know what to say now about her man’s behavior.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first. It’s best that you don’t go anywhere for the time being. It’s not very peaceful out there, so you should just stay put here at Oceanic Estate.”
“Okay,” Sasha agreed.
Then, he left.
…
There was some sense to Devin’s reminder.
It was all doom and gloom in the White House since Baylor was brought back. The murderous air that blanketed the building was enough to suffocate anyone.
“Officer Stevens, is Mr. Baylor not out yet?”
“Not yet.”
The police officer that was guarding the door shook his head solemnly when he saw Elizabeth coming again.
When she saw him shaking his head, huge tears began falling from her bloodshot eyes. She had not slept for an entire night.
“How long does he want to shut him up for? He’s still ill! He won’t be able to withstand this for much longer,” she cried.
Nobody paid her any attention.
At this very moment, even the police officer that had spoken to her earlier began to ignore her with a frown on his face.
illness? Who cares about his illness now?
She ran away sobbing.
A few minutes later, a bespectacled middle-aged man walked up to them. He looked very elegant.
