Sabrina turned her head around as well.
The moment she saw her brother, her eyes began brimming with tears. It was the first time Sebastian had ever seen her like this.
Sebastian stepped in without any trace of anger. He glanced at all the messy documents that were strewn across the floor before shifting his gaze toward the group of people.
“Why? Did you guys watch too much drama or something? Are you trying to re-enact a usurping scene?”
Upon hearing that, all the shareholders froze on their spot as a chill ran down their spines.
As usual, they were intimidated by Sebastian, as his aura was way too oppressive.
Robert, who was sitting in Sebastian’s seat, was the only one who was not intimidated by Sebastian. He growled, “What nonsense are you spouting, Sebastian? Can’t you see that we’re in the middle of choosing a better leader for Hayes Corporation!”
“Really?” Sebastian shifted his gaze upon Robert. “By a better leader… do you mean you?”
His tone sounded utterly daunting.
Upon hearing that, Robert was rendered speechless while his face paled in shock.
Fortunately for him, one of the shareholders noticed his timid reaction and immediately stood up for him. “That’s right. What’s wrong with Robert? At least he’s a normal person.
Instantly, the temperature in the office seemed to have dropped below freezing point.
Sebastian narrowed his eyes and stared at those shareholders, his eyes filled with fury.
“Normal person? Are you saying that I’m not normal?”
No one dared to utter a response to him.
“Fine! As you wish, then!”
A second later, he pulled out a pistol from his pocket and pointed it right at Robert.
Everyone at the scene was stunned, including Robert.
However, it was too late for him to regret all this. Before he could react, a bullet pierced through his body.
Bang!
Fresh blood splashed out instantly.
Sitting in the seat he had dreamt of; it took a long while before Robert realized what had happened.
A moment later, he collapsed to the ground.
Ear-splitting screams rang out from the office. “Murder!”
All the shareholders ran out of the office, hugging their heads with both hands.
The president of Hayes Corporation had shot someone publicly in his office. If news of this got out, it would cause an uproar in the whole country.
The next moment, Sabrina regained her senses and rushed toward her brother. “Sebastian, are you out of your mind? Why did you shoot him? Are you trying to prove to them that you’re really crazy?”
