Mark was at a loss for words.
His mind had gone completely blank. Even after they entered the car, he still could not believe it.
That man really is something!
Both of them headed toward the White House.
…
What they did not know was that Sebastian did not go to the White House, nor did he go looking for Baylor.
Instead, he went to the most crowded square in the city center and took the lift to the top floor. Soon, a spacious and bright office appeared in front of him.
“You’re here, Mr. Hayes.”
A man in black had been waiting there for a long time. After spotting Sebastian, he opened the door respectfully.
Sebastian walked in.
The speckless floor was made of marble, while the furniture followed a monochromatic color scheme. The huge desk was crafted out of dark walnut wood. From the reflection in the floor-to-ceiling windows, the office looked strangely familiar.
“Where is it?”
Sebastian entered the office, turned on the laptop on the desk, and asked expressionlessly.
When the man in black heard that, he passed a USB drive over. “Everything is ready. We’re just waiting for your command.”
Sebastian inserted the USB drive into the laptop and scanned its contents.
It was the second time he asked someone to bring it to him. The first time was when Hubert and the two others died.
Back then, Devin foolishly thought that Sebastian was there to chase after him. He waited for him at Norland for two entire days, even going to the place he stayed at.
In the end, Sebastian decided against taking this out again.
He could wreak havoc in Jadeborough and make the two most influential powers battle with each other. In that case, none of them would end up well. However, Devin was innocent, and Sebastian did not want him to become a sacrifice.
Hence, he gave up eventually.
But now…
He glanced at the screen before pulling the USB drive out coldly.
“Let’s start.”
“Yes, Mr. Hayes.”
The man in black took the USB drive back and got to work.
In this calm and peaceful city, no one would have expected that a tempestuous storm would soon ravage the city.
…
In Bridgewater Estate, Baylor would never have thought that things would change so drastically in an instant.
Sitting in a garden surrounded by lush greenery, he was enjoying the delicious food in front of him.
“Are you not going to eat? I’ve grown this fish for a few years. It’s tender and juicy, without any pollutants. Others can only dream of eating it.”
He picked up a piece of tender fish with his fork and coaxed the woman opposite him patiently.
She was a gorgeous woman.
Her dark hair was tied up neatly behind her head, revealing her smooth forehead. Although her skin looked quite pale from being shielded from the sun, her facial features were still dazzlingly beautiful. Despite the furious look in her eyes, they were still as clear as a lake.
Her beauty could not even be described with mere words.
Baylor placed a piece of fish onto her plate.
However, she did not even spare him a single glance. After a futile struggle to break free, she glared at him angrily.
“What are you doing, Baylor? Don’t forget your status. How can the son of the president commit such a crime? Aren’t you afraid that someone will find out?” she yelled furiously as she trembled on the chair.
This was something she did not expect.
He was supposed to be a cancer patient, teetering on the brink of death. In fact, he even tried to commit suicide in front of her. However, after she came, he did something so atrocious to her.
What does he want to do?
A look of fury crossed her eyes.
However, when Baylor saw how agitated she was, he laughed.
“Don’t be afraid, Dr. West. I won’t hurt you. I’m only doing this so you can stay here for a few more days.”
“What?” Her anger surged. “A few more days? Are you crazy? Why do you have to do this to make me stay here for a few more days?”
“I like it when you stay by my side. Who told you to refuse my offer to stay here with me? I even said that you could bring your daughter over,” said Baylor calmly with a gentle smile.
When Sasha heard that, she felt a cold shudder run down her spine.
He’s really crazy!
She remained silent, afraid that she would anger the madman and provoke him to kill her.
However, Baylor felt unhappy when she did not say anything. “Why aren’t you saying anything? There’s another reason why I kept you here. I want to let you see how that crazy man from the Jadesons doesn’t care about you at all.”
