Sasha waited with bated breath.
Thankfully, someone returned just as the sun was about to set.
Tears of relief and joy welled up in her eyes as she gazed at Sebastian, who had just got out of the car.
She was particularly concerned about him that day.
After all, he was still sick when he was being whisked away to a place where she had no idea what terrible fate would await him.
Thus, in comparison to this, she didn’t care whether they could identify the real murderer who had framed him at this moment.
As soon as he stepped out of the car, the magnificent evening sun beamed down on him, encasing him in a layer of gold. He was still wearing the gray solid knitted round neck casual sweater she had picked out for him that morning. Sebastian turned and walked toward her, his face stone cold under the afterglow of dusk.
She was perplexed when she saw him.
She hadn’t seen him with such an expression in a long time.
It reminded her of the time when he was in Avenport.
“What’s wrong?” He finally came to a halt right in front of her.
He fought the urge to throw his arm over her head, pull her in, and give her a head a rub when he noticed her staring at him blankly like a fool.
Rather than doing so, he questioned her indifferently.
Sasha was taken aback for a time before snapping back to her senses.
“I-It’s nothing. I just want to know if you were hungry or not. I’ve made lots of delicious food for you. Would you like to eat now?” she asked as if she was coaxing a child.
Sebastian looked at her for a moment before finally nodding. “Yes…”
“Okay, then I’ll get them ready for you right away!”
Her eyes started brimming with tears when she heard his response, and despite how soft his reply was, she was grateful. She quickly turned around and ran back in with a spring in her step.
Sebastian gritted his teeth.
“Sebastian, you’re back? What happened to Old Mr. Jadeson and the rest? Why didn’t they come back with you?” Janice, who had heard the noise, came out as well.
She couldn’t help but open her mouth and blurt out the first thing that sprang to mind as soon as she saw him.
Sebastian’s expression returned to that of indifference. “Grandpa is currently in the hospital. Please send two people over to look after him.”
“What?” Janice’s expression changed drastically.
Old Mr. Jadeson has been hospitalized? Oh God, what happened? Why is he being admitted to the hospital?
Janice was stunned and her heart ached over what happened. She wanted to ask him the details, but before she could, Sebastian brushed by her and strode back in, never turning to look at her.
Janice was speechless.
Forget it, I should just hurry and settle Old Mr. Jadeson’s matters.
