“Why did you come back now? You never showed up even once in five years. Don’t tell me it’s because of my engagement,” Sebastian said with hatred in his eyes.
Sasha was eating an egg at this moment.
When she heard him, she had to chew the egg in her mouth for a long time before she could swallow it.
Does he have to be so narcissistic?
However, he has always been like this. Even when he first found me in Clear, he behaved like this too. He keeps thinking that I still have feelings for him.
Sasha felt sick in the pit of her stomach.
“You have misunderstood. I only want to see my children,” Sasha said.
“See your children? Why do you want to see them? You have never raised them. They have nothing to do with you,” Sebastian said harshly.
Sasha was rendered speechless.
She told herself to hold her temper, as he did not remember anything. Furthermore, she reminded herself that she was doing this for the sake of her children.
Sasha put down the spoon and took a sip of warm water. When her throat felt better, she looked up at Sebastian again and said, “Sebastian, I come here because I heard you’re getting married, but it was not for you. I’m here for the children.”
“What did you say?” Sebastian said.
“What I mean is since you’re getting married and will have a new family, can we talk things out? Can you let me raise the children instead?” Sasha asked.
“Let you raise them?” Sebastian had a sullen expression a moment ago, but now, he seemed on the verge of laughing. “Sasha, is something wrong with your head? How dare you come back to steal my children from me?”
Sasha thought that no one had such skewed logic as him.
She explained quickly, “I don’t mean it that way. I just thought that now you’re getting married, you will have other children. It would be difficult to take care of many children, so I thought to help share your burden.”
Her words sounded sincere.
She feared that if she sounded too harsh, he would lose his temper and ruin all chances for negotiation.
Unfortunately, even after she humbled herself, Sebastian would not budge at all.
“Stop pretending to be kind. I know you’ve ulterior motives. How dare you say that you want to help? You pretended to be dead and never asked about your children in the past five years. Listen carefully, Sasha. They’re my children. No matter how many other children I have, I’ll raise them myself. I don’t need your concern,” he said through gritted teeth and slammed the table when he stood up.
Sasha’s face turned pale.
Is he planning to have more children with that woman?
