Sasha paused for a while before she took a look at those items.
“T-This is your seal? And your ID!” Her eyes sprang wide open and stared at Frederick in disbelief.
He was, however, very calm.
Picking up the pot of tea he had just brewed, he proceeded to pour her another cup.
“Yes. With them, you will be able to buy over the shares from Peter. Although 20% isn’t much, at least he can be a shareholder of Hayes Corporation once again.”
Sasha was stunned.
Everything seemed to happen so quickly, and she could not get her head around it.
She defended Sebastian again. “He couldn’t care less about that. It’s just that I don’t wish to see the fruit of his labor given away to someone else just like that.”
This time round, Frederick did not even refute. “All right. You can take these and go now.”
Sasha’s fists clenched. “Why?”
“Because you are right. No matter what, he is still my son. I should leave something for him. Furthermore, the two of you have three children. It’s only right that I should give these to you guys.”
That was his final answer.
Before Sasha could say anymore, she was taken away by the same man who brought her in earlier on.
Of course, with her were the two items.
Leave something for us?
He made us sound like a charity case! I don’t need that! Neither does Sebastian!
The more Sasha thought about it, the angrier she got.
However, she had no idea that the man who just threw her out went back and said to Frederick, “Mr. Hayes, are you sure about this? If this is the case, I don’t think that woman will let you go.”
Frederick laughed.
There was no sign of fear on his face.
He closed his eyes and enjoyed the aroma of the tea that he was drinking. When his eyes opened again, he had never looked as joyful as he had at the present moment.
“Get my lawyer here.”
“All right, Mr. Hayes.”
Meanwhile, Sebastian only noticed that something was amiss after two hours had gone by.
Overlord: Where is your sister?
Ghostsmasher: What? Sebastian, I have no idea. She isn’t back yet. I thought she has gone back to make dinner for you.
Lance, who was at the company, suddenly received a text from Sebastian, and he was freaking out.
The moment he answered his question, Sebastian went offline immediately.
Such double standards!
He should have at least played a game with me.
Sebastian started to search for Sasha’s location through her mobile phone.
He soon discovered that she was located more than ten miles away from the outskirts of the city. The veins in his temples started twitching incessantly.
“What is she doing so far away? What is she up to again?”
When he first saw her location, he was worried about her. His worry was soon replaced with anger.
He could not wait to get his hands on her and give her a good spanking of her life.
Sebastian stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped off into the distance.
Half an hour had gone by.
Sasha was still sitting under a poplar tree near a remote bus stop.
She was already on her way back, but she wanted to clear her thoughts.
That was why she got off the bus earlier on.
Several minutes had passed since then.
What am I going to do?
Should I really go along with the original plan and transfer the shares to my name using these two items?
Or should I be honest with Sebastian and let him decide?
But if that’s the case, wouldn’t he be even angrier? After all, I have gone and seen Frederick and taken these things. Will Sebastian misunderstand me and think that I’m going behind his back to take the things that he doesn’t want?
Sasha was very confused.
At that moment, she felt like getting rid of the two items that she was holding.
Before she could do that, a pair of men’s leather shoes appeared in front of her.
“Eh?”
“You’re brave to start roaming around so soon. Have you forgotten what I have just told you?”
The infuriated man lorded over her. He was so furious that he had forgotten about his secret identity in the game.
Those words came out of him through gritted teeth. He could not wait to punish her!
Sasha was startled for a while.
She looked at the man in a daze. It was only after a long while before she could react, and she stood up in a panic.
“Sebby, why are you here?”
“You don’t want me here?”
“No, that’s not what I meant…” The frightened Sasha waved her hands in denial.
How would I dare?
It’s strange though. What did he show up here out of the blue? This is, after all, the outskirts of the city.
“I was just… I was just wondering if you would come to get me if I don’t go back. Then, when I looked up, you were right in front of me.”
Her tears fell as she was explaining.
