Meanwhile, in a quieter hallway of the hospital building, Sebastian shot a ferocious look at Devin.
âWhatâs the matter with you? Youâve turned into a completely different person after leaving
Jadeborough. Did your parentsâ death somehow mess with your brain? Or did you do it on purpose to
get back at me?â
Infuriated, Sebastian reprimanded his cousin.
Devin boiled with fury after listening to him.
âWhat the hell are you saying?â
âAm I wrong? For goodnessâ sake, Devin, youâre a commander. Youâre always dealing with the most
malicious criminals and have never even lost once. Why were you unable to spot the womanâs
schemes? Why, Devin?â
Sebastian reached out and poked Devinâs chest.
As Devin looked at the finger that was pointing right at his chest, a hint of panic flashed across his
eyes.
No, itâs not that I am oblivious to the womanâs evil deeds!
Iâve known it all along. Otherwise, why would I order Henrick to investigate Shanae?
Moreover, if I was truly oblivious, I wouldnât have sided with Sabrina when Kiraâs leg was chopped off.
So, why did Devin choose not to expose the woman?
âIâm just going to say it then. You have never intended to expose her. Youâre just using that b*tch to
infuriate my sister so that she will stay as far away from you as possible. Youâre only able to live with
yourself by telling yourself that youâre not rejecting her because sheâs a Hayes! Instead, youâre trying to
convince yourself that youâre staying away from her because sheâs an unreasonable and demanding
woman!â
âYouâ¦â
âDonât for a second think that I donât know youâre only doing all these just because sheâs a Hayes!
Youâve never gotten over that fact. Devin, do you know who you look like right now? Your hypocrisy and
brazenness are exactly like that of your mother.â
Slap!
In the end, the man who was shaking with fury slapped Sebastian across the face.
Sebastianâs face twisted to one side from the sheer momentum, and the hallway fell into pin-drop
silence.
Oh, is he getting mad now? Because Iâve just exposed the truth about his hypocrisy?
Sebastian licked the corner of his lips, which was seeping with blood. Sniggering, he turned around to
leave.
Devin was rendered speechless.
There was a moment when he truly felt like reaching out and grabbing at Sebastian.
However, he could not summon any strength as his hands shook uncontrollably. In the end, he stood
grounded as he watched Sebastian leave.
Devin had never felt this miserable before.
After all, he had always been an outstanding child growing up. Even when he became an adult, he was
still a role model whom people look up to. His image to others was impeccable.
That was until now.
After Sebastian reprimanded him, he felt buck naked and embarrassed as a sense of remorse washed
over him.
Sebastian was right.
Meanwhile, Sebastian headed toward the ward from the hallway.
âMr. Hayes, are you all right?â
âIâm fine.â
He wiped away the bloodstain on the corner of his lips forcefully as he peered into the ward.
The woman inside was no longer screaming. Instead, she could only let out muted cries as she
shuffled helplessly on the ground on all fours.
What is Sasha doing inside?
He furrowed his brows uneasily and asked, âWhat happened inside?â
The two soldiers did not know how to answer him.
After some time, they finally answered hesitantly, âMr. Jadeson, I think itâs best if you donât enter the
ward first⦠Mrs. Jadeson doesnât seem to believe that the woman inside has gone mad. Sheâs testing
her.â
The vein near his forehead twitched in response as he turned around to leave in silence.
All right then, I might as well let her have some fun. Meanwhile, I can take the time to sort the mess on
my face so that she doesnât worry about me.
After he left, Kira let out another sharp shriek that could make oneâs hair stand on end. The two soldiers
hurriedly turned their heads to one side as cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
âHave you thought it through? Are you going to tell me how Shanae died now?â
In the ward, Sasha opened the voice recorder application on her smartphone as she crossed her hands
in front of her chest. Then she looked down on the woman who was groveling at her feet.
The truth was, Sasha did not wish to take her life just yet.
She merely stopped the blood from flowing to the few vital points on Kiraâs lower body.
Hence, Kira could only crawl on the floor like a dog. However, each step she took would be
accompanied by a sharp pain in her stiff lower body, tormenting her to no end.
âYou⦠You are a bad womanâ¦â
Sheâs still keeping up the act, huh?
Sasha finally lost all patience and stepped on Kiraâs legs in a swift motion. Then she took the needle in
her hand and pierced it into Kiraâs suture point on her broken leg.
