Unlike his previous reactions, Sebastian didn’t reject her invitation with displeasure. Instead, he actually gave it some serious thought.
All of a sudden, he furrowed his eyebrows. “Is her biological father really dead?”
Sasha responded, “Huh?”
Sebastian expression darkened. “What do you mean ‘huh’? Even if her father is dead, doesn’t he have any relatives? Are they all dead too?”
Sasha thought to herself, how cruel can he be to curse the Hayes family?
Sasha averted her gaze in her reply.
“No… not really. Her grandpa and aunt are still around.”
“Then why don’t you let them take care of her? Why are you raising that many children alone?”
“Isn’t it obvious? I’m the one that’s supposed to raise her since I gave birth to her. If I let someone else do it, what if they mistreat her? Can you bear it if they starve her or even worse, abuse her?”
Sasha shot back fiercely at his ridiculous comments, silencing Sebastian.
For some inexplicable reason, when he heard her mention that Vivian would go hungry and might be abused, the sudden image of Vivian’s innocent face flashed across his mind, causing him to feel upset.
That’s true. How can she give away her own children?
Sebastian didn’t say another word for the rest of the journey.
Consequently, Sasha too remained silent. Sometimes, she felt that he was so sharp that he could see through anyone easily. And yet, he could still be ridiculously blind at times.
Isn’t it obvious you’re her dad?
Both of them remained silent until they arrived at Frontier Bay.
“I’ll get down first.” Sasha wanted to alight at once.
“Sasha, listen well. Sabrina is someone that’s extremely vengeful. For the time being, you’d better stay here and not venture anywhere else.”
Suddenly, Sebastian warned her in a tone that she had never heard before.
Ah!
Sasha was caught by surprise. The moment she turned around, her gaze met with his. She could see the cold yet authoritative glow in his eyes.
“Alright, I… I understand,” she stuttered as she tried to hold back her racing heart.
After all, she was well aware of how ruthless Sabrina’s character and methods were. Therefore, she didn’t doubt his words one bit and was sincere in her reply.
However, just as she spoke, Sebastian sneered, “Make sure you take my words seriously and not have any funny ideas. Or else, with your intellect, you wouldn’t know what hit you when she has you captured.”
At that very moment, Sasha was outraged.
