Sebastian’s POV
His name doesn’t ring a bell, but his daughter’s does.
The moment I realized it was the kidnapper speaking, I put the call on speaker and wrote down the name for Jim. They pulled out his whole life with lightning speed.
But I didn’t need that anymore.
Justin Roland was a talented actor, but being a nobody, he had never got any role deserving of his talent before I signed him four years ago. Struggling with tuition for college, he was going to drop out of high school to be a model. Upon hearing that, I offered him a movie under the condition that he would go through college. He did, with excellent grades.
The girl, Sparrow Ryan was a high school classmate of his. I don’t want to speak ill of the dead, so let’s just stick with the fact that Roland had a high school sweetheart who he married last year, and the Ryan girl did not like that.
She jumped off a building on Roland’s wedding day.
I normally don’t follow this detailedly into events like this happening in one of my subsidiaries, but whether it was our responsibility aside, a life ended, and a really talerited employee I appreciate was involved. So I know more about it, but that’s to say, I know that our legal team protected him in court, and I specifically told Miller to send compensation to the family though we won the case.
That was the end of my knowledge of the case.
“I have got your woman, MR. SEBASTIAN,” Liam Ryan drawls with a cruel laugh.
Woman? Singular?
“Which one?” I ask.
“That’s the million–dollar question!” He laughs.
“I know you got both of them, Liam Ryan,” I realize he is playing with me, “I’m the one who you hate, so don’t touch them. Anything you want, I can give you.”
“You’d wish you can solve this one with money, asshole!” He snorts coldly, “You protected the monster who killed my sparrow, and that is why tonight, you will lose yours!”

“Your daughter’s death is a tragedy, and I’m sorry,” I try to keep him stable, and Jim takes the chance to track our phone call, “but she committed suicide, and that shouldn’t be why another life should be taken.”
