Chapter 165 Feeling Stunned

The two picked up their sons from Wendel Residence and returned to Hart Residence. However, there was an uninvited guest at home.

Ann’s eyes lit up instantly when she saw Sebastian walking in from the door. She stood up from the sofa, looked at Sebastian, and called out, “Sebastian!”

It was only one word, but her voice was very affectionate and intimate.

Sebastian frowned slightly, glanced at her, and greeted Philip, “I’m back, Dad.”

“Grandpa, we’re back!” Joel came out from behind Sebastian and ran to Philip, throwing himself directly into Philip’s arms. After wrapping his arms around Philip’s neck, he gave the man a big kiss. “Grandpa, I’ve missed you so much!”

He wrapped his arms around Philip’s neck and snuggled in his arms like a kitten.

Philip’s heart softened at that. He laughed happily, put his arms around Joel’s small body, and said in a loud voice, “I’ve missed you too, my dear grandson!”

As he held the boy in his arms, he was filled with emotion.

Not long ago, he thought that he would never be able to enjoy being a grandfather in this life. Yet, after a turn of events, God gave him two beautiful, cute, and sensible grandsons.

His heart really melted at the sight of them, and he wished he could give all the best things in the world to his precious grandsons!

Anyone, including Ann, could see his love and indulgence for Joel.

She grew up with Philip, but she had never seen him look at her like that. Thus, her heart suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

Joel is just a b*stard child, so how is he even worthy of the old man’s love?

She was bad at hiding her thoughts, so the emotions on her face revealed what she was thinking about.

As he glanced at her, Sebastian did not speak.

After all, he didn’t want to criticize her in front of Philip so that he wouldn’t affect the older man’s good mood.

Quincy also came over to greet Philip by saying, “Grandpa.”

“Yes, yes, you’re both my good grandsons!” Philip stroked Quincy’s little head and smiled.

He also took Quincy into his arms, and after cuddling them for a while, he finally put the two children down. As he held each one of their hands, he stood up and said to Sebastian, “Sebastian, please entertain Ann. I will bring Aldo and Buddy to go wash up, and when they’re done, we’ll have dinner.”

“Okay.” Sebastian nodded in response.

Philip held his precious grandsons by the hand and walked upstairs, laughing happily.

Joel excitedly kept talking to him about what happened earlier today. It was obviously something ordinary, but Philip was very interested and kept laughing happily.

When the figures of Philip and the two children disappeared around the corner of the stairs, Sebastian withdrew his gaze from them and looked at Ann. “Have you graduated?”

“What?” Ann was stunned for a moment before she regained her senses. Her face was very embarrassed as she replied, “Not yet…”

Sebastian raised his eyebrows. “Why did you come back before you graduate?”

“I completed a project, and my mentor gave me a long vacation. He agreed that I could come back to visit my relatives, so I returned.” Ann lowered her eyes and brushed her hair away from her face. She never dared to look into Sebastian’s eyes when she was lying. Whenever she looked into his eyes, she always felt like he would see through her.

“I see.” Sebastian then asked, “Have you gone home yet?”

Ann clenched her fists. It was another question she didn’t want to answer, but she didn’t have a choice.

“Not yet.” Fortunately, she had already thought of what to say. “Grayson knew that I was coming back, so he sent Asher to pick me up at the airport in advance. Asher directly brought me here to see my uncle. You know that my mother is in a sanatorium in the south, so I will be alone when I go home. Thus, I might as well come here to accompany my uncle and help around.”

“You have good intentions.” Sebastian curled his lips. “However, I have a family now. I have a wife and children, so it’s not suitable for you to live here again. Besides, there is a family banquet tonight, and it is not suitable for outsiders to join. You’ve come a long way, so you should go home first…”

Without waiting for Ann to speak, he raised his voice and called out, “Quinton!”

“Yes, Young Master!” Quinton entered in response.

Sebastian instructed, “Help Miss Evans with her luggage and send her home.”

“Very well, Young Master!” After Quinton bowed, he went to look for the old housekeeper.

The old housekeeper must know where Ann’s luggage is!

Ann was stunned. She looked at Sebastian in disbelief and said, “Sebastian, are you crazy? How could you treat me like this?”

She had grown up here since she was a child, and this was her second home. Although Sebastian didn’t like her, he never did something as rude as this.

Is he going to chase me away? How could he drive me away?

“Ann, do you think I’m blind?” Sebastian took a few steps forward and sneered. “You despise my son right in front of me. Do you think I’m blind or that my IQ is limited? Do you think I’m a masochist who’d keep those who look down on my son as a guest in my home?”

Ann was taken aback.

She was startled for a moment before she shook her head in a panic. “Sebastian, you must be mistaken. I don’t despise y-your son… And… And…”

She bit her lip and added, “Are those two children really your sons? Sebastian, have you been mistaken? You have been keeping yourself clean all this while, so how did you suddenly have two more sons? D-Did someone who has ulterior motives frame you? Sebastian, your descendants are not a trivial matter. No matter wherever you go, illegitimate children are all condemned! Sebastian, you are such a perfect person. How can you take two illegitimate children home? By doing so, others will talk about you and mock you!”

“Aldo and Buddy are not illegitimate children,” Sebastian said coldly. “Aldo and Buddy’s mother is my legal wife, and they’re the descendants of the Hart Family. Don’t let me hear you slander my sons again in the future, or I will…”

He sneered coldly, and the chill in his eyes made Ann shudder violently. She couldn’t help but take a few steps back while looking at Sebastian in disbelief and heartbreak.

How could Sebastian talk to her like this?

She grew up with him and loved him for so many years, so how could he treat her like this for a random woman and two b*stard children who appeared out of nowhere?

Her heart seemed to be torn to shreds at this moment, and the pain couldn’t be more excruciating.Original content from .

“How could this be?” She looked at Sebastian in disbelief, tears brimming in her eyes. “Sebastian, h-how could you treat me like this? We grew up together, and you and my uncle are the most important people in my life. In fact, you’re even more important than my life. Everything I say is for your own good, and no one in this world has your best interests at heart more than me…”
