Sebastianâs words were undoubtedly a bolt of lightning.
Not only was Grayson shocked to hear that, but even Devin couldnât quite believe it.
Baylor White? Alfredâs dying son? How could he have the capability to cause such a huge accident?
Devin knew the Whites well. He truly couldnât quite believe that.
After having discussed things with Sasha back then, they both felt that someone else was behind the
poisoning incident. He had been investigating that man all this time.
However, he found no clues that pointed to the man.
Well, until this very moment when this cousin of his revealed that the sickly man wanted to kill him.
In that case, could the person behind the poisoning have something to do with him?
Devin was both surprised and livid.
âHow did you know that? Have you been investigating him all this while? Or⦠you were already
acquainted?â
Only after composing himself for a long while did he hear himself asking such a question.
Unfortunately, Sebastian said nothing further. Or more precisely, he didnât want to. He merely stood in
front of the operating theater. The hostility and menace on his face could make one shudder in terror.
Irrefutably, Devin was still beneath him with intellectual acuity.
How did he get acquainted with Baylor? He used to live in Avenport. And when he came here, he was a
different person so, itâs even more implausible for him to be acquainted with that heir of the White family.
That name probably went on Sebastianâs list because of Calvinâs death.
The message the latter left him before he died was to caution him against someone else. He also said to
stop after killing Charles and the others and urged Sebastian to live out the rest of his life with his family
elsewhere.
At that time, Sebastian already knew Calvinâs death had nothing to do with the Jadesons.
Meanwhile, the fact that Calvin said nothing about the real culprit who hurt him but insisted that
Sebastian left quickly because that person was even more powerful and tricky than the Jadesons.
Naturally, the White family went on the list.
The Whites were exceedingly smart. They seemed to get along very well with the Jadesons, just like a
family.
Sebastian finally had an opening when someone told him about Hubertâs sexual preference.
The latter preferred beautiful boys.
Sebastian had someone seek Hubert out. Instead of paying a visit in person, he instructed the person to
anesthetize Hubert and witnessed his own castration.
Sure enough, Hubert caved.
He confessed that Calvin only ended up in his hands because someone wanted him to transform the
latter. Then, he was to send Calvin back to the Jadesonsâ Residence, and in turn, Sebastian.
Therefore, Magnusâ appearance that day with Calvin was no coincidence.
It was probably staged.
The puzzle pieces fell in place with careful planning, including phoning Kira and having her notify Devin.
Since Devin had also gone to the club that day, he would still rescue Calvin without Sebastian since he
had been helping with the search.
After that, he would have sent Calvin back to Sebastian.
Hubert received no mercy in the end. Sebastian had his man melt the organs and tossed him back to his
master.
I never expected the culprit to go even wilder instead of being afraid and restraining himself. I havenât
gone for him, but he dares to provoke me directly!
The corners of Sebastianâs mouth curved into a frosty arc.
An hour later, the doors of the operating theater finally swung open.
âHow is she, doctor? Is she okay?â Devin immediately rushed over.
Grayson went over as well.
âThe prognosis is rather bleak. Her internal organs have ruptured, and thereâs severe internal bleeding.
Besides a few broken ribs, her vital signs are stable for now. However, itâs uncertain if she can pull
through the critical period.â
The doctor described the Vivianâs condition pessimistically while looking at the two men.
As soon as Devin heard that, his face fell.
When he saw her face wrapped in a thick layer of gauze, his expression turned grimmer.
âSebastian, sheâ¦â He peered at his cousin cautiously, looking very hesitantly.
She has finally returned to his side after much difficulty, and her face restored after an excruciating
torture. But now, her life is hanging on a thread again. Why is this happening?
Devin was devastated.
However, he noticed Sebastianâs strange behavior.
Standing before the gurney, the latterâs pupils constricted as he looked at a heavily bandaged Vivian.
His handsome face blanched slightly.
Seconds later, he was back to his calm and aloof self.
âKeep a close eye on her,â he ordered. Then, he whirled around to leave.
Devin was entirely stumped.
Is he for real? He left just like this?
