His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2222

Natalie's laugh stung his pride.

Sebastian knew that he was merely a pawn to Dean, and a useless one as well because Dean had never bothered to hide his contempt.

Dean felt that Sebastian owed everything he owned to him, and if he wished to take it back one day, he could do so anytime he wanted.

Sebastian felt as though there was a leash around his neck and Dean was the one holding it on the other end.

"If you don't want to take the deal, forget it," he said calmly, seemingly unaffected by her insults.

"I didn't say no!" She stopped laughing and calmed down to consider his offer. "If I miss my chance, he will find out that I'm not dead. By then, not only will he kill me, but he will also find out that you have been lying to him."

"How can it be my fault that you came back to life? Elliot died and came back to life, too, didn't he?" Sebastian said. "Besides, I won't let you do it unless I'm sure you will succeed. There's no point in me risking my own hide if I simply wanted you dead. Dean is paranoid as it is and I will raise suspicion if I so much as look in the wrong way."

"Good thing that you are self-aware. Dean Jennings is our common enemy and that makes us friends." Natalie desperately needed someone to side with her and Sebastian was not a bad choice. Though he could not protect her, he was the only one who would be able to get close to Dean.

"We are not friends, and we never will be. Once this is over, we will go our separate ways," Sebastian said coldly.

"Sure, so long as you don't leave me in the cold once you get what you wanted! Let me tell you this: I am not interested in the Jennings family's money."

"Yeah. Where are you now? Now, that I've decided to fake your death, I will have to monitor you or it will end badly for me if Dean finds out that you are still alive," he said.

Natalie knew he was right, but her instincts stopped her from placing her trust in him, at least for the moment.
