Fueled by alcohol and uncontainable rage, Sebastian lost all restraint.
A maddening fire burned in his chest. For years, the genius Li—Lillian—had been sleeping in his bed, and he had thrown her away.
Because he had spent years trying to acquire the Li Algorithm, he fully understood the magnitude of her genius.
Now that the truth was out, and Lillian was entirely out of his reach, the agonizing realization of what he had truly lost threatened to tear him apart.
The suffocating despair morphed into vicious anger, and he directed all of his grief at his parents.
"Leeway? What does my image matter now? I'm the biggest joke in the elite circle and the entire industry!
Just wait until the media finds out Lillian was my hidden ex-wife!
With everything exploding online, it's only a matter of time before someone leaks the truth.
Everyone knows I scoured the globe looking for Li, begging for a partnership!
And now? Now they'll know the person I was desperately searching for was the wife I tossed aside because I was too blind to see her worth.
And you two!" Sebastian screamed, pointing at them. "You knew she was Li this whole time, didn't you?!"
Sebastian raged like a lunatic.
His vicious accusations were merely a desperate shield to hide a regret so deep he couldn't even put it into words.
No, he couldn't even bring himself to say the word 'regret'.
The elders stood in grim silence. They were well aware of the chaos that had unfolded that day.
They hadn't possessed the inside knowledge to know Lillian was Li.
