Sasha was speechless.
Hmph, can you stop threatening to kill me all the time? Donât you know itâs a bad influence on the
children?
Sasha sighed. âAlright. Thatâs enough for today. You can come to pick the children up now.â
âWhat did you say?â
Airborne over clear airspace at that moment, Sebastian who was raging a while ago was suddenly
stumped.
Pick the children up?
Just like that?
He lowered his head to glance at the city he was about to land in.
When Sasha didnât hear a response from him for a long time, she began to grow impatient, thinking
that he didnât understand her.
âAre you coming or not? If not, Iâll let the children spend the night here. But donât you dare complain
tomorrow that my rental apartment is a bad place to raise your children.â
At that moment, there was silence in the helicopter.
Rental apartment?
Sheâs letting me pick up the children at this hour?
So, that witch didnât leave Avenport at all and took the children to her place instead?
Before he could say anything, he almost choked on himself.
âMr. Hayes, we are about to land at once. Below us is Clear Hospital and we can land directly on its
rooftop.â
The bodyguard sitting beside him remarked at that crucial moment.
At the same time, Sasha heard it over the phone which caused her eyes to widen. âMy goodness,
Sebastian, you⦠you flew all the way to Clear?â
âShut up! Sasha, I will definitely not forgive you for this. Just you wait!â
After that, Sebastian ended the call abruptly.
He was utterly humiliated.
Never in his entire life had anyone fooled him to that extent.
Sasha became nervous when she felt Sebastian would definitely not forgive her. She had just intended
to have some fun at his expense by causing him to worry, so that he would know what it felt like to be
tricked.
However, she had never imagined that he would actually fly to Clear in search of them.
Iâm finished! Thatâs the end of me.
She didnât even dare to sleep. After the children went to bed, she stayed in the living hall, trying her
best to fight off her drowsiness while waiting.
As expected, by three in the morning, she heard the bang of a car door closing and was instantly
woken by it.
The figure that arrived looked frightening.
With her chin by the window, she could sense the murderous rage being emitted by the figure despite
the darkness. As he approached slowly, she noticed the chill that accompanied him into the building.
She was already quaking in her boots.
To avoid disturbing the childrenâs sleep, Sasha locked their room door and headed to the entrance.
âAhâ¦â
The moment she got there, she was greeted by a pair of bloodshot eyes, causing her to shriek in
surprise and freeze.
F*ck! This crazy assh*le!
She fumed, âSebastian, are you crazy? Itâs the middle of the night. What are you trying to do? Scare
everyone to death?â
Sneering, Sebastian kicked the door open.
âHaha, scare you? You should be glad that I didnât kill you right away!â
Sasha no longer wanted to talk to him. Even the earlier guilt and anxiety she felt dissipated at once.
âWhere are the children?â
âSleeping.â
âBring them out!â
âWhy donât you do it yourself? Why must I do it?â
Sasha refused to cooperate. Plonking her bum on top of the electric heater, she casually picked up the
pack of chips beside her and started munching away.
Her expression couldnât be anymore frosty, causing Sebastian to be further infuriated.
Given that he had not even eaten or drunk for the whole day, he couldnât help but gulp when he saw
her eating and was tempted by the delicious aroma of the chips.
âMr. Hayes, why donât we go in and get the childrenâ¦â
âDonât touch them. Sebastian, let me warn you, my son wonât allow just any stranger to wake him up. If
you scare him, I wonât forgive you!â
Sasha interjected when she heard the bodyguardâs words.
With a fearsome glare, she was adamant in her refusal to let the bodyguards carry her children.
After all, children had an inherent fear of being carried by strangers when theyâre asleep. No matter
how smart they were, the kids were still only five.
Also, it was freezing outside and they would run the risk of catching a cold.
The same thoughts naturally crossed Sebastianâs mind as he waved the bodyguards away.
âWhat happened today? Since when you started scheming with them?â
âMr. Hayes, can you stop thinking that everyone is that crafty? What do you mean by scheming? My
sons just wanted to help me when they saw how you bullied me.â
Sasha argued with reason and also cleared her childrenâs name.
Unexpectedly, Sebastian scoffed, âThey help you? What about the flight tickets? Donât tell me that they
were the ones who bought them?â
âWhatâs so strange about it? My son knows all my particulars like the back of his palm and can even
generate my ID online. Whatâs so difficult about booking some flight tickets?â
Sebastian was speechless.
âBy the way, Little Ian also participated. He was the one who paid.â
Sasha bit into another piece of chips and it tasted especially delicious.
Amidst his rage, Sebastian could feel a familiar pain that caused the veins of his temple to throb.
