Sasha didnât know what had happened between the two during her brief moment of absence earlier, but
she couldnât bring herself to refuse the old manâs request when she saw his expression and heard what
he said.
On the way to the Blackwood residence, Sasha realized the unsettling tension in the car and asked,
âSo⦠who was that guy? Did he go there just to see you?â
âYeah, thatâs Peter Miller, one of Hayes Corporationâs shareholders,â Sebastian replied, which came as a
surprise to her.
Sebastian would never talk about anything if he doesnât feel like it, and heâs saying that with such a scary
look on his face too! Sabrina had wanted me to ask him about his decision regarding the company, but I
never dared bring it up during our time in the village. Maybe this is my chance to do that. Iâm really
curious as to what his answer will be!
Sasha seized the opportunity and asked boldly, âWhat does he need from you? Is it about the company?
You donât want to deal with it anymore, right?â
The look on Sebastianâs face grew even colder when he heard that, but he still replied, âWith Dadâs
healthy son managing the company for him, itâs only going to become even better than before! I wouldnât
want to ruin their happiness now, would I?â
Sasha didnât dare say another word after that.
Itâs obvious that Sebastian hasnât gotten over that incident, and I canât blame him for it either. His dad
said some really nasty things to him, so it isnât something you can just forget after a while and move on.
With that in mind, Sasha decided to drop that topic and return the share transfer agreements to Peter
when she had the time.
Little did she know, Solomon had already found out about what happened.
âMr. George, I think we should get those share transfer agreements back from Ms. Wand as soon as
possible. If Mrs. Tsurka were to find outâ¦â
The assistant was so nervous that he didnât dare finish his sentence.
Solomon looks so terrifying with that cold and menacing look in his eyes! He used to be such a cheerful
and easy-going person, but now⦠Heâs had that suffocating air of hostility about him throughout the past
two days!
âSo what if she finds out? You think sheâll kill her?â
âSir, our main priority is to take back Hayes Corporation, and Ms. Wand is an outsider. If you donât want
her to get harmed in any way, then our best bet would be to get the documents back before Mrs. Tsurka
finds out.â
Itâs perfectly possible for Mrs. Tsurka to kill Ms. Wand when it is necessary!
After what felt like an eternity, with an icy-cold look in his eyes, Solomon asked, âHow are you going to
take it back with Sebastian by her side?â
âDonât worry about that, Mr. George. I will arrange for someone to steal the documents from her without
anyone noticing.â
With the assistantâs reassurance, Solomon nodded and tossed him a few wads of cash to get the job
done.
The assistant then picked up the money and hurried off to do his bidding.
As Sasha had stopped talking about Hayes Corporation, Sebastianâs mood was a lot better by the time
they arrived at Blackwood residence in Old Town.
âWeâre here, Uncle Jackson!â
âDid you start your journey really late or what? Look at the time! The freaking sun is about to set!â Being
the hot-tempered man that he was, Jackson scolded them angrily as they had arrived a lot later than
they had planned to.
Sasha took a quick glance at Sebastian as she was afraid of him getting angry.
âN-No, Uncle Jackson! We had a traffic jam on our way here, thatâs all!â
âA traffic jam, you say? Where exactly?â
âUmâ¦â
âStop with the questions, will you? Who cares where the traffic jam was? They got here, and thatâs all
that matters!â Sharon reprimanded him when she came out of the kitchen to serve up the food.
Thanks to her, Jackson finally stopped pressing them for answers, much to Sashaâs relief.
She then turned toward Sebastian and was about to say something when she noticed how calm and
indifferent he seemed. As Sharon placed the plate and cutlery down for him, Sebastian took a seat by
the dining table and said, âItâs not her fault. I had a last-minute errand to run. Thatâs why we arrived late.â
Jackson too, was surprised at how calm he was despite being down and out.
âWhat was it that you did?â
âThis is my first time coming over, so I went to buy you a gift,â Sebastian replied as he placed a box on
the table.
Sasha went wide-eyed with surprise.
A gift? When did he get that? He didnât buy anything while we were in Lux Tower earlier!
