Chapter 63 There's a Price To Pay
Christian also laughed a little, a faint trace of sarcasm crossing his eyes. "We traded on the spot."
Sebastian's face was devoid of any emotion as he said, "There's something wrong with Kingston. You go check it out."
Christian frowned slightly, a little surprised. "Kingston?"
Sebastian looked out the window into the night and said, "Gianna died so close to where Kingston was at the time. The person standing outside the window was just trying to divert our attention and confuse us so that Caleb had a chance to come to the study after you all left."
The timing was perfect!
Christian frowned, looked at Sebastian, and answered, "I'll go downstairs and check it out. I'll be back at 9:00. Call me if anything happens."
"Okay!" Sebastian answered gently.
When Christian walked to the door, he stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Sebastian. "You've wronged Eleanor."
Sebastian didn't want to hear Eleanor's name right now, but Christian just brought it up.
"I apologized to her." Sebastian knew if he didn't say that, Christian would be upset.
Christian looked deep into Sebastian's eyes for a moment and left without saying anything.
Needless to say, it was awkward when the two grown men both fell silent!
Sebastian was left alone and fell into silence again.
He was surprised by Eleanor's appearance. Those ridiculous things Samuel did bug Sebastian too much.
Sebastian sat in front of the window for an hour. Then Christian messaged him, saying that he was going back.
Only then did Sebastian start his wheelchair and go to Eleanor's room.
He knocked on the door and pushed his way in. There was pleasant laughter coming from the room. Eleanor's voice was slightly hoarse and Waylon was laughing his ass off.
"Haha... So how did the little baby end up?"
Eleanor said as she looked at Waylon, "In the end, that chicken was not killed and was put in the bathroom. The next day, it laid an egg, and the little baby was so happy. Although he didn't get the chicken leg, he was happy to get the egg."
Actually, the little baby was Elijah.
Elijah loved chicken legs, especially the New Orleans roast chicken legs, and he could eat two at a time.
In order to eat chicken legs, Elijah even tried to steal a chicken.
Sebastian saw this when he entered the door, and he felt all warm inside. He had rarely heard such laughter in this house.
When Eleanor saw Sebastian was here, she stood up from the sofa, looked at him, and asked, "President Moore, are you going to sleep?"
"Uh-huh!" Sebastian looked at her, who was wearing a short blouse and shorts, revealing slender fair legs and arms. She was light-skinned. Her skin had a faint glow in the lamplight and was dazzlingly pale.
She didn't have any makeup on. Her delicate features were as beautiful as if they were carefully drawn.
Looking at the smiling woman in front of him, Sebastian was completely unable to imagine that it was the same woman who had confronted him before.
His eyes flickered when he saw the bruise on her neck.
Sebastian came back to his senses and lowered his eyes as if he could smell the faint, clean, refreshing scent of her that made him want to be near her. Upon closer inspection, his ears turned red as blood.
"Waylon, did you take your medicine?" Sebastian asked, looking at Waylon.
Waylon looked at Sebastian, his face sullen. "Yes," he said harshly.
Sebastian frowned, wondering why Waylon was snippy with him.
"Go to bed early. You'll start studying tomorrow morning." With that, Sebastian turned his wheelchair around and left.
After Sebastian left, Eleanor looked at Waylon. "Waylon, let's go to bed."
