Sasha was immediately filled with anger.
He sent Sebastian back? Is this old man crazy? He keeps sending Sebastian to that damn military base! Does he think Sebastian is a child whose life he can dictate? He’s always trying to control where Sebastian goes!
Sasha exploded. “Are you being serious right now? You’re always treating him like this! Do you even consider his feelings? He’s not a soldier! Why do you keep sending him to the military base? Are you still expecting him to fight for you?”
“What did you say? I dare you to repeat what you just said!”
“I’ll repeat it ten thousand times if you want me to! You, Jonathan Jadeson, have no right to treat him this way! You neither raised him nor did you support him in any way! His very life was rescued from your hands! What right do you have now to order him around?” Sasha shouted back at Jonathan fearlessly.
She was boiling over with rage.
Neither she nor Sebastian owed him anything from the moment he gave up Shin and later on when Sebastian escaped death and came into the world.
He had never fulfilled his responsibilities.
After that, when Charles appeared and caused trouble for the Hayes family, his absence became even more unforgivable.
What the h*ll is this old man trying to do? Does he think he has the right to control Sebastian?
Jonathan was shaking from anger at Sasha’s insolence.
However, he did not try to refute Sasha’s words. He merely stood there for a while and tried to calm himself. Then, he motioned to Mark, who had come in with him.
“Take this woman upstairs!”
“What did you say?” Sasha exclaimed in horror. “What do you mean by that? Are you putting me under house arrest?”
“Don’t worry. Once Sebastian has safely reached the military base, I will release you. For now, I must confine you to your room to make sure you don’t interfere with things,” Jonathan said coldly. Mark stepped forward at a wave of Jonathan’s hand.
Sasha immediately whirled around and tried to escape. She was both shocked and angered by Jonathan.
However, she was still just a woman while Mark was a well-trained soldier. She had only managed to run two steps before Mark grabbed her by her arm.
“I do apologize for this, Madam!”
He marched her into the elevator easily as if she weighed nothing at all.
“Jonathan Jadeson! You will regret this!” Sasha could be heard shouting at Jonathan from inside the elevator.
Jonathan ignored her threat.
Olivia, who had been watching from her spot by the walls, could not help but ask anxiously, “Old Mr. Jadeson, are you doing this so that she will not find out about the incident? You won’t be able to hide it for long… Such a major thing has happened to Mr. Sebastian, and the problem can’t be resolved anytime soon! She will find out soon.”
“We’ll deal with her when she actually finds out!” Jonathan said firmly. His mind could not be changed.
After that, he went into his study, looking rather gloomy. He did not reemerge again for a long time. The mood in Oceanic Estate seemed to turn dark overnight.
It was as if every single person in that house had a black cloud hanging over their heads.
Sasha was locked in her own room.
Boiling over with anger, she made sure the entire house could hear her rage. She banged against the door with her fists loudly, demanding to be let out. However, no one came to her rescue. After Mark had sent her upstairs and locked her room door from the outside, her house arrest began. Even the household help were not allowed to come close to her room.
“You ingrates! This will not end well for you!”
Finally, Sasha exhausted all her energy. She slumped against the door. All the anger had dissipated; only despair remained.
A few hours later at noon, Olivia was given permission to come upstairs to deliver lunch to Sasha’s room. “Madam, I’ve brought you lunch. Please eat.”
Olivia dared not unlock the room door, fearing that Sasha would use that opportunity to escape past her. She placed the tray of food down by the window and cautiously called out to Sasha through the walls.
Sasha ignored her.
She wants me to eat? They are forcefully separating me from my husband! How do they expect me to have any appetite?
Behind the locked door, Sasha thought about how she had gone to The Ataraxy all by herself yesterday and how she had sincerely wanted to manage the Jadesons’ money well for them. She could not help but smirk ironically to herself at that thought.
“Madam, I-I’ll put your lunch here, okay? Please eat some later.”
Olivia stood by the door waiting for a short while. When it became clear that Sasha was stubbornly refusing to eat, she sighed and turned to leave.
At that moment, a hoarse voice sounded from inside the room. “Bring me my phone.”
Olivia hesitated.
“What’s wrong? You can’t even do that for me? Fine, then go and tell Jonathan that if he refuses to even allow me access to my phone, I’ll starve myself to death in this room!” Sasha said coldly.
Her threat scared Olivia.
She quickly ran to the study to relay Sasha’s message to Jonathan.
Ten minutes later, Sasha had her phone in her hands.
However, her anger soon returned in full force when she realized that her Internet access had been blocked. She could not do anything on her phone except play offline games.
That d*mn old man!
Sasha’s rage was burning.
In the end, she still turned on her phone since there was nothing else that she could do while locked in her room.
