chapter 1645
Holden still recalled that he had left a million dollars to his niece before he left. He wondered how long would that last her.
“Uncle Holden, you have to be well. Miss Minerva said that she is working very hard. In the future, she would even support you after she graduated from college. You have to be well, Uncle Holden. You can’t do bad things,” Aino said to Holden as if she was coaxing a little child.
Holden nodded. “Mm-hmm. I will certainly obey your words, Aino.”
“Uncle Holden, it’s already very late. I have to sleep. You should sleep as well, alright?” said Aino again, she was truly sleepy.
Holden immediately nodded. “Mm-hmm. Okay, Aino. Little children must sleep more, only then they can grow taller. Quickly go to sleep.”
“Goodnight, Uncle Holden. Sweet dreams.” The little child bid Holden goodbye.
“Okay.”
Aino handed the phone to her dad and instructed her dad softly, “Don’t be so fierce with Uncle Holden. He is a good person.”
Sebastian was speechless. He watched Aino walk further away, turn into the corridor, then only Sebastian said into the phone, “Hello?”
At the other end, Holden did not speak for a long time. He had never expected that during the interval of time when he was speaking to Aino, that rotten woman in the small pitch- black room had actually gone missing, where did she go? That d*mned woman had actually taken advantage of him being unaware and escaped. 2
“What’s the matter with you, Holden?” Sebastian was a little worried. He could tell that Holden, who was on the other end of the line, was actually drunk as a skunk. At that moment, Sebastian was thinking, something would not have happened to Holden from drinking too much, right?
“Holden! Holden!” Sebastian called out aggressively, lowering his voice slightly.
On the other end of the line, Holden suddenly roared. “It’s all your fault! She has gotten away! she got away! ”
Sebastian did not understand. “Who ran away?”
“That woman who had done all kinds of evil and was filled with malicious thoughts! she actually ran away!” said Holden in anger. 1
He originally planned to starve Lily to death. He did not expect that she would escape. This d *mned woman truly was lucky! 1
“Sebastian, you’d better remember this! Protect Sabrina and Aino better! otherwise, I will kill you!” Holden abruptly ended the call after he said that.
Sebastian was speechless. He knew that the few harassing phone calls he had received recently were all from Holden. Sebastian did not even get to ask where Holden was. However, what was the point of asking?
Sebastian hoped that Holden could return, and then he would split half of the family fortune with him. It would more or less be a kind of compensation. However, Sebastian also hoped that Holden would not return, and that was because of Aino and Sabrina. He had thought to himself that it could also be fine. Both of them would be in separate corners of the world, and they could mind their own business. If Holden indeed became impoverished one day, Sebastian would still care for him and provide him enough to live.
When Sebastian thought of that, he felt slightly relieved. He sat on the balcony and thought about things for a very long time, then he returned to the bedroom. The woman in the bedroom was still sound asleep. The man helped tuck her in and then he also laid down to sleep.
