Chapter 1600 Consequences For Harming Vivian
“Mr. Hayes, i-it doesn’t matter that she isn’t of legal age yet. We only w-want the matter to be settled. The wedding can wait till they’ve grown up.”
Finally, the president of Sun Group voiced his position.
Even though he didn’t manage to speak fluently, his suggestion that the two families agree on the matter right away was even more ludicrous.
What’s there to agree? Does he think so highly of himself that he can force us into it?
The smirk on Sebastian’s face deepened. “Why should we do so? Do you think that our daughter doesn’t have any suitors?”
“Huh? But—”
“Don’t worry. After my daughter’s sixteenth birthday, there will be a queue for her hand, including those from royal families. However, I couldn’t care less. After all, I’m in no hurry for her to get married,” Sebastian added as he maintained his poise.
When the Williams family heard it, their faces turned so red that it looked as if they had been slapped.
Royalty? Who are we compared to them? We’re nothing but a joke!
The Williams family no longer dared to bring the matter up again.
As for Dwayne, he simply sat there with an ashen face.
However, that wasn’t the end of it, as Sebastian began to turn on the pressure. “Furthermore, I heard that your son had tried to harm my daughter a few nights ago. Isn’t that right?”
“Wh-what?”
The couple was stunned.
As for Dwayne, his face suddenly turned white as sheet.
“M-Mr. Hayes, what’s the meaning of this? Why would my son hurt your daughter?”
“Why don’t you ask him instead? Let me warn you, if he continues to act with impunity, I don’t mind teaching him a lesson, just like Sir Goldin’s daughter!”
Sebastian stared coldly at the three of them. When he uttered the last sentence, he said it with such ruthlessness that it sent a chill down their spines.
Consequently, the couple’s faces lost all color.
As for their son, he was so overwhelmed by fear that his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
He actually knows!
When Sasha suddenly realized what had happened, her face drastically changed. In a fit of rage, she slammed her glass down onto the table.
“What’s the meaning of this? You claimed to like Vivi, and yet, you hurt her when she rebuffed you?”
“No, no… Mrs. Hayes, please listen to me. There must be some misunderstanding. Let me ask my son about it first. Perhaps, later—”
“What misunderstanding? My husband’s words couldn’t have been any clearer. I’ll have you know that although both of us are not by Vivian’s side, we have men watching her round the clock. Hence, it’s impossible for there to be a mistake!”
After saying that, Sasha slammed the plates in front of her on the table.
It was so loud that those outside the private room could hear it.
After all, she could tolerate anything in the world except her children being harmed.
Finally, the negotiations for the marriage alliance ended with Dwayne’s parents offering to transfer him out of the Royal Academy. Only by doing so did they manage to appease Sasha.
Throughout the entire process, Sebastian looked on in silence as Sasha vented her rage.
At the end of the episode, the greedy couple’s plan had evidently backfired. When they were preparing to leave with their son, Sebastian shot them a languid gaze.
“Remember, stop stirring up trouble. Or else, you will end up just like the Goldin family!”
The Williams family shivered gain in response.
Without another word, they turned tail and fled.
As for the Goldin family, nothing seemed to have changed on the outside.
However, anyone who was close to them knew that they were already bankrupt and no longer held any power. Within the Yartran royal family, they had become the equivalent of figureheads.
Considering that such a fate could even befall royalty, Sebastian evidently had the power to crush a company like the Sun Group.
Only then did Dwayne’s parents realize what they have gotten way over their heads.
Meanwhile, Kurt had quickly left in the evening.
Given that Vivian’s parents were in town, he didn’t dare stay too long. Despite how open-minded Sebastian was, Kurt knew that he shouldn’t push the boundaries.
After that, Kurt stayed in school for three consecutive days.
On the fourth day, which was a Thursday, he was in the library doing research. Suddenly, one of his classmates informed him that there was a girl downstairs looking for him.
Girl?
Kurt looked up from his books.
When he came downstairs a few minutes later, he was greeted by the sight of a girl in a furry khaki hat. She was still dressed in her school uniform, which comprised of a jacket top and a short plaid skirt.
