“Confess?”
“Yes. There are many people involved in the smelting plant of the Jadesons, and all of them are government officials. I dare not act rashly to alert them, and I only came here today to inquire about it. But I did not expect him to be bold enough to strike the moment I arrived.” As Sebastian spoke, the murderous intent within him started to boil.
Sasha’s jaw dropped.
The story was too sudden and shocking for her.
So even after leaving Jadeborough, was helping the Jadesons with their most treacherous task the only thing he could do? He had to protect them and even weed out the threats surrounding them?
Sasha’s eye reddened.
The Jadesons had hurt him so much, but he still chose to protect them blindly.
“Darling- Don’t cry, okay? Don’t worry. I didn’t mean physical harm to me when I said strike. But he wanted to imprison me and force me to tell him the purpose of inquiring him.”
Sebastian looked at Sasha as she began to cry in his arms.
He was at a loss and didn’t know what to do. He could only explain and fumbled to wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes.
Sasha looked at him while sobbing.
After a moment, she finally asked. “Did you say it? If he knows that you came for the smelting plant of the Jadesons, will he really kill you?”
Sebastian could not give her an answer.
Then, she finally heard the words coming out from the crevasse of his teeth. “No. He’s not that courageous. Not many people in this world dared to think about killing me.”
Sasha was startled. But she regained her senses almost immediately.
Well, he is so strong. He wouldn’t go for a suicide mission. He must have had everything planned out when he was investigating. After all, he did single-handedly turn the entire city upside down when he was in Jadeborough.
Even the White House had fallen into a state of powerlessness. What’s to say of a mere customs director of a tiny remote city. Driving a speedboat out of Norden Isle unscathed proves it.
Sasha finally calmed down completely.
“Oh, by the way. I forgot to tell you one thing. That bastard Solomon actually posted a resignation video on the Hayes Corporation website. He announced that he is leaving Hayes Corporation and is giving the company back to you.”
‘What did you say?”
Sebastian squinted his beautiful eyes.
That was the first time he had a big reaction about work.
Is he about to get angry?
Sasha’s heart started to pound.
She didn’t know that just half an hour ago when Sebastian was still in the hotel on the delta behind him, Giovanni had someone keep an eye on him.
Even Giovanni himself kept asking him about his motives to inquire about the rare-earth metals.
However, someone came in and said something to Giovanni’s ear, and he suddenly went out.
Not only did the guards disappear, but even Giovanni himself also began to be at ease.
At that time, he didn’t know what happened. He was still confused.
But now that he heard about this unexpected turn of events, Sebastian suddenly had a revelation.
Sh*t!
In the Norden Isle hotel.
Giovanni let out a long sigh of relief after watching the entire video.
“So the reason Sebastian came to me to ask about rare-earth metals was because of the Hayes Corporation?”
“I think so. He left the Hayes Corporation for more than a year. To reclaim his throne, he needs some foundation to impress the shareholders to accept him. Furthermore, rare-earth metal is the only market in which the Hayes Corporation was not involved.” Giovanni’s assistant agreed to his speculation.
Giovanni’s felt even better after hearing his assistant’s deduction.
“If that’s the case, then there is nothing to worry about. As long as he is not inquiring for the Jadesons, there wouldn’t be a problem.”
“Precisely. But having said that, Mr. Giovanni, I don’t think he was here for that.” The assistant suddenly spoke secretively.
How is he so sure about that?
Giovanni was particularly fond of gossips, and he became interested upon hearing it.
“Tell me more.”
“Yes, Mr. Giovanni. You might not have known that his cousin’s parents committed suicide because of him. That incident happened before Sebastian returned, and they happened to be in charge of the Jadesons’ properties.
Unexpectedly, the assistant was very well-informed. He even knew about this.
Giovanni became even more high-spirited after hearing that. “Such a thing happened? So he can’t take over their business. Isn’t this making the conflicts in his family even worse?”
“That’s right. That is why Sebastian couldn’t have come on behalf of the Jadesons. So please don’t worry about it, Mr. Giovanni.”
“Very well. We’ll invite him for dinner after he returns to Hayes Corporation. After all, I did try to harm his wife.”
Suddenly, the assistant had a bad premonition.
