Chapter 330

Geoffrey Carter sat expressionlessly on the couch, sipping on some

tea.

Sebastian stood in front of Geoffrey, his figure tall and towering, with an indomitable air of a noble.

Geoffrey looked as if he was going to set his teacup down, but midway, he lifted his arm and flung the teacup in the direction of Sebastian’s head.

The tea in the cup splashed all over Sebastian’s head.

Although it was no longer scalding, the teacup hit his head and broke into two pieces.

Sebastian didn’t wince in pain, and continued standing tall. The broken teacup fell on the floor with a clank.

Geoffrey looked up at Sebastian coldly.

“You’ve become quite something. I heard that recently, you’re seldom. in the office and always out. Even your secretary doesn’t know where you go or what you’re doing. Tell me, Who is that woman?”

Sebastian said firmly, “It’s my own problem, and not because of some woman. Don’t get the wrong idea.”

“Me? Getting the wrong idea?”

Geoffrey stood up. He was as tall as Sebastian, with a strong and authoritative air about him.

Sebastian bore a striking resemblance to him.

Geoffrey, however, had many more years of experience under his belt and looked colder and more ruthless than Sebastian. There was not a

trace of warmth in his eyes, as if he could viciously step over anyone.

“You lost such a major project, which you promised me you were very confident about. Yet, you ended up letting someone else snatch it from under our nose.”

Geoffrey walked around Sebastian.

“You better tell me which woman you’re fooling around with. She’s made you obsessed, and you’ve become negligent about the

company. Even if you refuse to tell me, don’t forget that I can always find out.”

Sebastian said calmly, “There’s no woman. It’s all my own problem, and the loss of the project is my sole responsibility. I take full accountability for it.”

“You? Bear full responsibility for it?” Geoffrey laughed mockingly. Then tell me, how are you going to be held responsible for it?”

“I can resign from the role of CEO of Skycrest Enterprise,” Sebastian said without a trace of fear in his eyes. In fact, he looked very calm.

Geoffrey looked incisively at Sebastian, his gaze piercing like a sword, as if he wanted to slice him into two

“You screwed things up, and want to leave just like that? Sebastian Carter, you’ve turned out to be so irresponsible.”

“Then tell me, Dad. How do you want to hold me responsible for this? I lost the project, and I was the person with the highest authority. I’m willing to bear the responsibility and deal with the problem I caused, and even consider resignation.”

“Sebastian Carter!” Geoffrey bellowed. “You think you can fly solo now, is that it? How dare you speak to me like that!”

“I genuinely meant every word I said, and didn’t mean anything else,” Sebastian said calmly,

“Fine,” Geoffrey said with a nod. “Since you didn’t mean anything else, Sebastian, I’ll investigate things and find out who exactly is the one who bewitched you. If this goes on, the company will collapse in your hands.”

“Dad, I’ve told you that I’m solely responsible, and there’s no woman whatsoever. Do you wish for me to be the kind of man who pushes the blame on a woman?”

Sebastian naturally didn’t want his father knowing about Rosalie, for fear she might be implicated. He knew the kind of man his father was.

Geoffrey was ruthless even to his own family members, not to mention strangers. He would surely be heartless and cruel.

“You put it so nicely. Seems like you’re really protective of that woman.”

Geoffrey scoffed.

“In that case, I must find out who she is. Let me say this upfront: if this woman bears any influence over the Carters, I won’t sit idly by and watch her destroy our family.”
