Chapter 1405 Sebastian Is The Culprit
Huh? Why did the laser beams disappear all of a sudden?
Staring at the empty base, Sasha was equally baffled.
Right then, they heard a loud buzzing sound above them, and they watched as the dust from the ground was swept up into the sky like a hurricane.
A fighter jet landed near them at top speed after passing by a tower destroyed by the laser beams earlier.
Oh my gosh!
Sasha was dumbfounded by what she saw.
Similarly, Leah widened her eyes in confusion. With the child still in her arms, she tried to figure out what was happening.
Seconds later, a few figures stepped out from the fighter jet.
Buzz.
Leah froze.
At the same time, Sasha looked back.
Before they knew it, they saw a thin silver object shooting through the dust and smoke.
Slash! It was the sound of human flesh sliced apart.
Leah could only stare in disbelief when it sliced off her hand around the child.
Sasha and Ambrose were startled.
Before they could react, a dark shadow appeared behind the woman and took the child away from her.
It was a terrifying scene that seemed like it came right out of a sci-fi movie.
Everyone was stupefied, including Leah.
Only when blood started spurting out from her wrist like a tap did she clutch onto it in pain. She screamed hysterically before collapsing onto the ground.
Right on the dot, the man hidden by the smoke appeared.
He had a toned build, and he came with a rifle in his hands. Dressed in a suit and dress shoes, he looked like he had traveled here from a business meeting.
Sebastian? I can’t believe it’s him! How is that possible? I’ve blocked all of his phone signals, so how on earth would he know what happened? On top of that, how did he manage to rush here in time?
Leah recognized him at first sight. Ignoring the searing pain from her wrist, she screeched, “When did you return? No… This is not possible. No!”
“Is that so hard to believe? Didn’t you doubt my son for bringing so much breakfast back this morning? Well, I arranged for my men to send him up.”
Sebastian approached her and gave her a death glare.
Noticing the severed hand on the ground, he let out a disgusted snort before kicking it away.
“However, your craziness did surprise me. I can’t believe that my first miscalculation in life happened because of you.”
Although Sebastian had no intentions to kill anymore, he still gave off a murderous aura when he made eye contact with the woman on the ground. Leah’s face was pale and covered in blood.
At once, he raised his hand and pointed a laser gun at her.
“No!” Ambrose screamed from afar when he saw that.
He begged, “Please don’t do it, Sebastian. Please let her off. She is doing this only because we lost our son that year. If you want to deem her guilty of how things turned out, then I will bear the consequences on her behalf!”
Sebastian was about to slice Leah’s head into two with his gun, like how a lapidary would cut a stone.
However, Ambrose’s words stopped him.
“Ambrose, do you know what you are saying? Why are you pleading on her behalf?”
Sebastian turned to Ambrose with a look of disbelief. He could not fathom why a sensible man like Ambrose would say such things.
“Ambrose, look around you. Count the number of corpses that are lying behind you. Think about how much of your research she has destroyed. Why are you defending her?” he spat in frustration while pointing at the corpses.
Ambrose’s face, which was covered with blood, turned as white as a sheet of paper.
Despite so, his expression quickly changed. As though he had a new idea, he argued, “Leah did this because she’s not right in the head.”
“Not right in the head?” Sebastian growled, feeling even more agitated than before. “If she cannot think straight, how did she manage to change all the control switches here? How did she manage to draw up such a sophisticated plan to target an eleven-year-old child? I don’t think she meant to implement this only when she came to the island. She probably started plotting this since both of you came to our house.”
Realizing that Sebastian’s assumptions did not seem unrealistic, Ambrose kept mum, unsure how to respond.
When he received the message that someone had intercepted their communication in the area, his wife had reminded him of the address of the Hayes Residence.
Therefore, it was possible that Sebastian was right.
