Mark was at a loss for words.
His mind had gone completely blank. Even after they entered the car, he still could not believe it.
That man really is something!
Both of them headed toward the White House.
…
What they did not know was that Sebastian did not go to the White House, nor did he go looking for Baylor.
Instead, he went to the most crowded square in the city center and took the lift to the top floor. Soon, a spacious and bright office appeared in front of him.
“You’re here, Mr. Hayes.”
A man in black had been waiting there for a long time. After spotting Sebastian, he opened the door respectfully.
Sebastian walked in.
The speckless floor was made of marble, while the furniture followed a monochromatic color scheme. The huge desk was crafted out of dark walnut wood. From the reflection in the floor-to-ceiling windows, the office looked strangely familiar.
“Where is it?”
Sebastian entered the office, turned on the laptop on the desk, and asked expressionlessly.
When the man in black heard that, he passed a USB drive over. “Everything is ready. We’re just waiting for your command.”
Sebastian inserted the USB drive into the laptop and scanned its contents.
It was the second time he asked someone to bring it to him. The first time was when Hubert and the two others died.
Back then, Devin foolishly thought that Sebastian was there to chase after him. He waited for him at Norland for two entire days, even going to the place he stayed at.
In the end, Sebastian decided against taking this out again.
He could wreak havoc in Jadeborough and make the two most influential powers battle with each other. In that case, none of them would end up well. However, Devin was innocent, and Sebastian did not want him to become a sacrifice.
Hence, he gave up eventually.
But now…
He glanced at the screen before pulling the USB drive out coldly.
“Let’s start.”
“Yes, Mr. Hayes.”
