On the other end of the call, Holden asked calmly, “And then, what’s next?”“Aino is my daughter and Sabrina is my wife,” said Sebastian.“Bullsh*t! Bullsh*t! Bullsh*t!” Holden suddenly got angry.Sebastian was speechless. At that moment, he suddenly felt something that tasted metallic and sweet come up to his throat. He knew that it was blood. He then forced himself to swallow that metallic and sweet taste. He had been decisive with killings and had witnessed countless deaths in his life, but at that moment, he truly was unable to hold up anymore. He felt that there was clearly a knife slicing his heart up one stroke at a time. The pain was so intense that his whole body was convulsing. However, he just could not. His wife in front of him was going to give birth soon. His precious daughter was still in Holden’s hands. He could not do anything. He could only stay calm. The only thing he could do was to be calm. He calmly listened to Holden lashing out.“Sebastian Ford! Do you think
Otherwise, would Sebastian have used the entire Ford Group, which he had gotten after he fought for it with his life, to trade for Aino and Sabrina? However, Sebastian did not say anything at that moment. He only waited for Holden to be done with yelling at the other end of the call.“Sebastian Ford! You’re not worthy at all! Sabrina was already eight months pregnant! What were you doing? What exactly were you doing? Have you ever spent a day with her? You were not around every day. Do you even f*cking deserves to have her?” Sebastian still did not talk back after being angrily scolded by Holden like that. That was because everything Holden said was right.He waited for Holden to finish his scolding, then he asked, “What do you want?”“I want Sabrina!”“Impossible!” said Sebastian.“That’s not up to you! Aino is now with me. It’s up to Sabrina whether she will be coming or not.”Sabrina’s eager voice could be heard coming from this end. “I’ll come! I’ll come to you, Holden! I jus
Sabrina’s bawls could only be heard by Sebastian. At that moment, Sabrina, who had hung up the call, looked at her husband in an incomparably miserable, weak, pitiful manner. She cried so inconsolably that she was whimpering. “Sebastian, I want Aino. I want my Aino. I want Aino…”Sebastian was speechless. He was also bleeding inside from being heartbroken. At that moment, he wanted to tell his wife, “I told you not to get close to Sean Ford. Don’t get close to Sean Ford…”However, Sebastian did not say anything at all. His wife and daughter were both kind to their bones. Sean Ford, on the other hand, was his biological father. Who would have expected that they would actually use this method to trick Aino and take her away? That was his biological father! Who would have expected it? He had guarded against so many things in the world and had ensured that nobody in the entire South City dared to lay a finger on Aino. Sebastian even made Kington follow the child closely every step of the
After that, the two of them immediately poured a cup of hot water each. One for Sebastian to rinse his mouth, and the other for Sabrina to soothe her shocked self. Only then did Aunt Lewis ask, “Madam, what exactly happened? Tell us quickly. We’ll put our heads together to think of a solution.”Sebastian did not speak and his gaze was motionless.“Aino. Aino had been…abducted by Holden Payne,” Sabrina said with a hoarse voice.Aunt Tianna, who was behind them, dropped the cup in her hand on the floor. Aunt Lewis was stunned and unable to speak for a long while. After a long pause, she got up and made some phone calls without hesitation. “Is this Master Zayn? Quickly come over. The little princess had been abducted.”“Is this Miss Yvonne? Aino, she…”“Hello, Master Shaw…”“Master Alex, quickly come over. Something big has happened in our house.”Within ten minutes, Aunt Lewis had notified everyone, but she was smart enough not to notify Gloria. After all, Gloria was quite old and
Alex looked at Sebastian in disbelief. “Sebastian, what did you say?”“Withdraw all the search parties and leave an unobstructed route for Holden to go back,” Sebastian said weakly.“Why are you doing that, Sebastian? Do you not believe that we can turn the whole South City upside down and flatten if you and I join forces? Or you….” Alex asked.He wanted to ask Sebastian how could he be so unconcerned about Aino’s life and death? However, before Alex could open his mouth, he was interrupted by Zayn.Zayn suddenly bellowed. “Sebastian Ford! Are you human? Aino is your daughter! Your daughter! You’re just going to let that pervert, Holden Payne, take her away like that?”“My Uncle Holden is not a pervert,” Minerva mumbled softly.“Minerva, don’t say anything.” Nigel immediately stopped her. Minerva bit her lips.Zayn was still shouting. “Sebastian Ford! You can choose not to save Aino! I’ll do it! I will exhaust all of the Smith Group’s assets and all my efforts in searching and r
Zayn knew that in terms of loving Aino, nobody loved her more than Sebastian. The reason Sebastian let Holden go was because he had thought it through from all aspects and wanted to give Aino the best chance to survive.Speaking of that, Sebastian cleared his throat and his voice sounded even more miserable than before. “At the very least, Holden cares for Aino. I only bank on this love he has for Aino and try my best not to anger him.” There was a pause before Sebastian raised his hands and covered his face. “I hope…I hope that my Aino…could come back alive.” There was a lump in his throat as he said that.He was a man, the person with the highest authority in the Ford Group, and a man who had reigned South City for almost eight years. He had never cried growing up, but at this moment, Sebastian's voice was choked up. Sabrina was heartbroken when she saw her man like that. She leaned on Sebastian’s shoulders and cried inconsolably. To a family, if their child was abducted that the f
Holden’s satisfied voice could be heard coming from the other end of the call. “Sabrina. My route is now unobstructed. When are you coming over?”“Where’s Aino?” Sabrina asked.Holden immediately called out cheerfully. “Aino, come over quick. Your mom’s on the phone.”Sabrina then heard the sound of Aino running over to the phone. After Aino answered the call, Sabrina could hear the little girl panting.“Mom, what are you doing?” Aino’s voice was extremely cheerful. It sounded like she was very happy.Sabrina suppressed her overwhelming emotions and desire to cry. She asked Aino calmly, “Tell me, are you having fun being with your uncle?”“Uncle Holden is even nicer to me than Dad is. He bought me a fighting robot that is twice as tall as me, Mom. I can’t even climb on it. I like this robot too much,” Aino immediately said.Sabrina felt slightly relieved. “That’s good.”“Mom, you don’t have to worry about me. I want to stay with my Uncle Holden and play for a few more days. Whe
Holden suddenly smiled. He understood why the little girl said she wanted to see her father when he said he would grant her a wish just now. That was because she had not seen her father for a very long time. She missed her father but she was also annoyed at him. She even hated her father. Holden felt very happy. It was great that Aino hated her father. As long as Aino was willing to hate her father, then Holden would be able to walk into Aino’s heart easily. That was the best opportunity for him at that moment. The more her father was distant from Aino, the nicer Holden had to treat her. Besides, being nice to Aino was originally the most important thing to Holden.“Don’t cry, Aino. Don’t cry, baby. Alright? Your father and I are twins, so I can make it up to you for all his mistakes, alright? Don’t hold it against your father as well, alright? Your father can’t accompany you, so let me accompany you in his place. Alright?”Aino instantly stopped crying and smiled. “Uncle Holden, is
