Chapter 1599 Here To Ask For The Hand Of Your Daughter
By the time Sebastian arrived at the hotel with Sasha, the president of Sun Group was already waiting there.
He had also brought his son along.
Prior to the meeting, he had heard of Sebastian’s brave exploits of how he pacified the country in a time of chaos and helped the nation’s economy to recover.
Nonetheless, such stories of valor slowly died down ever since Sebastian was almost killed in a plot four years ago. Subsequently, he remained in a coma for three whole years.
As a result, the president of Sun Group didn’t hold Sebastian in high regard.
After waiting for half an hour, he finally saw Sebastian and Sasha enter the hotel’s opulently decorated lobby. He was caught by surprise when he realized Sebastian, who was dressed in a black coat, looked younger than expected.
Sebastian’s maturity had softened his chiseled features over the years. Nonetheless, it didn’t affect the elegant and distinguished aura he always exuded. With the stunning-looking Sasha holding onto his arm submissively, the couple caught everyone’s attention the moment they stepped into the lobby.
“My God! Who are they? Are they someone important?”
“I’m not sure.”
Even though everyone was singing the praises of their looks and charm, none of them dared to approach.
After all, the surrounding crowd could easily feel the dignified air Sebastian and Sasha were emanating at their age.
Even the president of Sun Group noticed it.
Suddenly, he couldn’t help but get to his feet upon their approach, even though he had planned not to do so.
“Hello, are you Mr. and Mrs. Jadeson?”
“You can call me Mr. Hayes.”
With an indifferent expression, Sebastian helped Sasha over as both of them took their seats in the private room.
Mr. Hayes?
Upon hearing Sebastian’s answer, the president looked at his empty hand awkwardly.
At the same time, Dwayne stood the side, feeling tense.
After all, he had never seen them before. When he visited Oceanic Estate to see Vivian, Sebastian was still in a coma, whereas Sasha was taking care of him.
Thus, this was the first time he was meeting both of them in person.
Despite his superiority complex, he was subconsciously unsettled by the domineering pressure they exuded.
In fact, he didn’t even dare look at them in the eye.
Picking up the glass of water in front of him, Sebastian ignored everything that was going on.
After taking her seat, Sasha smiled warmly at the president’s wife, thinking that Sebastian was there to discuss business.
The president’s wife, Marsha, greeted, “H-Hello… Nice to meet you.”
Sasha replied with a smile, “Hello, it’s a pleasure to finally meet you too. I’m grateful that your son helped Vivi the last time.”
She brought up the incident half a year ago when Dwayne went to see Vivian at Oceanic Estate.
Obviously, Sasha was oblivious to what actually happened. Or else, considering her temper, she would have lashed out at them instead of responding so warmly.
However, the two foreigners began to leverage her friendliness for their agenda.
“Don’t mention it, Mrs. Hayes. That’s expected of him since he likes your daughter a lot.”
“Huh?” Sasha was stunned.
Holding a glass of water, she choked at what she heard.
Cough! Cough!
“Slow down.”
Sebastian patted her on her back helplessly.
After Sasha regained her composure, the shock in her eyes couldn’t be more obvious.
“Is she joking? Does she even know how old Vivi is?”
“Yeah. She’s probably high.” Sebastian agreed with his wife’s sentiment.
Nevertheless, he didn’t bring up the fact that Sasha was also about eighteen to nineteen when she married him and gave birth to the three children.
Meanwhile, the couple from Sun Group looked at them curiously. Due to the language barrier, they couldn’t grasp what Sasha and Sebastian were saying.
“Mrs. Hayes?”
“Ah, I’m sorry, Mrs. Williams. Vivian has always been a sociable person and always talks about her good friends in school. Therefore, I’m glad your son is one of them.”
“No!”
Unexpectedly, Marsha denied it at once.
“Mrs. Hayes, you have misunderstood. That’s not what I’m saying. I’m not talking about a platonic relationship but a romantic one. Do you understand?”
She was so anxious that she got straight to the point.
Sasha was dumbstruck.
The next moment, it was Sebastian’s turn to speak. However, he didn’t mince his words at all.
“What’s there to understand? My daughter is only seventeen and isn’t even of legal age. What romance is there to talk about?”
“Huh?”
The Williams family were taken aback.
As for Dwayne, his face lost all color when he heard the displeasure in Sebastian’s voice.
