“Mr. Hayes, what are you-”
“Go away!”
His seething tone sent a chill down everyone’s spine.
Sasha’s face turned ashen white.
Why is asking me to leave? Wait, what did I do to anger him? I have been working hard for the entire afternoon, and my bones are hurting so much that I can barely stand. And yet, he is chasing me out?
Sasha clenched her fists.
“Mr. Hayes, what have I done wrong? You can just tell me, and I will change, all right? Don’t keep telling me to get out. It’s just my first day here.”
Sasha changed her tactic. Instead of challenging him, she tried to pacify him instead.
There’s no other way. His current character puts him in a volatile mood. It’s hard to predict what he will do next. Perhaps, he might not even have control over it.
Just as expected, Sasha’s response had caught him by surprise. Suddenly, he felt his anger stuck in his throat, stopping him from unleashing his temper.
“Mr. Hayes, you really can’t chase me away. When I got to know that I could come here, I gave Vivi a call, and she was delighted. If I were to be kicked out on the first day, she would definitely cry over it.”
Sasha used her trump card, rendering Sebastian speechless.
Suddenly, when the image of Vivian snuggling up to him and calling him Uncle Sebastian emerged in his mind, the anger within him subsided at once.
Devin took notice at once.
She really knows her way around him. No one has ever been able to quell his temper ever since he returned to the Jadeson family. This is a miracle!
“I asked you to go upstairs. Why are you wasting my time?”
“Huh?”
Sasha’s eyes widened in surprise.
Go upstairs? So that’s what it is? Fine.
Feeling awkward, Sasha let out a sheepish smile. “I know, I know. I’m going up now, Mr. Hayes. Please wait a moment while I complete the equipment setup. After that, we can start your treatment.”
With that, Sasha held onto her head and slipped away.
Devin was bewildered at what just happened.
“Sebastian, your doctor-”
“Get out!”
Me too?
Stunned, it took Devin a while before he regain his senses.
It wasn’t until he saw how adamant Sebastian was, unlike earlier, that he finally understood what was going on.
“I understand now. I am the one you really wanted to kick out,” Devin replied in frustration.
