Sebastian Brenand spoke indifferently, his tone resolute. He didn't seem to have any reservation or hesitation whatsoever.
Rachel Wood sat beside him as if she was a mere spectator, not wanting to get involved in his family matters.
These days, she had grown much wiser due to her pregnancy. Becoming a mother allowed her to become more mature.
She also stopped behaving like a saint as she did in the past. She would not hold Sebastian back from his decisions nor offer him advice.
She also wouldn’t fight or question him.
His reaction made it clear that he wasn’t giving his parents the easy way out.
Right then, their facial expressions turned even gloomier.
Fuming, Sebastian’s father pointed an accusing finger at his son. “Are you planning to cut off all ties with us? Even if we’ve agreed to let you two stay together?”
Sebastian bared his hands without hesitation and nodded. “Why not? You should’ve known everything you did back then was unforgivable.”
They had no retort to that, not knowing what to say other than being angry.
“All right, hurry up and leave if you have nothing else to say. Stop bothering my wife by being here. You’re both quite a disgusting sight,” he bit out with distaste.
He no longer felt anything for his parents. As time went on, he began to see things more clearly, and he was now determined not to have anything to do with them.
It didn’t matter if they were genuine or merely feigning truce.
He just wanted them gone.
“We shouldn’t have raised you, Sebastian,” his father declared.
