Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 1428

"Sebastian, it’s your Uncle Patrick."

The voice of the Poole family's old man could be heard coming from the other end of the line. Sebastian was speechless. Ever since Alex was promoted frequently and became a powerful figure in Kidon City at a young age, the Old Master Poole had been living a secluded life for the past ten years.

Another reason for him to be living a secluded life was his second young brother, Axel Poole. Patrick and Axel were half-brothers and the age gap between them was more than ten years. Patrick was seventy-six years old this year, while Axel had just turned sixty. Back then, Patrick's eldest son, Jasper Poole, had no intention of manipulating power and Alex was still very young at that time, so Patrick had been promoting his brother, Axel, whenever possible. However, he never would have expected that after Axel was promoted, he'd turned against Patrick and bit the hands that fed him. Axel said that Patrick was the traitor to the country back then or something similar. Patrick was so infuriated that he almost died, but he also did not wish to air his family's dirty laundry.

Fortunately, Lily’s father was a very skilled doctor at that time. Through the meticulous care of Lily's father, only then did Patrick recover. However, he was depressed after that because of the inability to

materialize his ambition, so he had hardly gone out of the house. However, these kinds of depressive days did not last long, and his son, Alex, made Patrick very happy again. Patrick's youngest son, Alex, indeed had lived up to his expectations. Within a few short years, Alex actually managed to control the area at the border very well. The young Alex was also considered t o be incomparable in Kidon City.

Alex did not let his father down. He truly took up all the burden for his family and also made Axel’s family no longer having the wits to be so arrogant. Within a few years that followed, Alex was even able to overpower his uncle and came out on top. He truly became the most powerful figure in Kidon City. After his son had successfully attained the top spot, it was only natural that the Old Master Poole life became comfortable.

The only thing that the old man was concerned about was his youngest son’s marriage.

The Poole family and Parker family of Kidon City were considered to have been friends for generations, and Alex had liked the daughter of the Parker family since they were little. However, the daughter of the Parker family was too willful growing up, and she insisted on travelling the world. With that, Alex's marriage had been delayed for more than ten years. Fortunately, she had already returned, so it should be time for Alex to concentrate on the important matters now.

However, what happened to Alex? He was troubled by a maid. What the hell was that?

At this moment, not only did Alex have a feud with the young lady of the Parker family and asked to be isolated from her from now on, but he also was in a wretched state. He had been drinking every day and was always in a dazed state. How could that be a good thing? To put it bluntly, the entire Poole family was dependent on Alex. Alex’s family only has all the honors and glories because of him.

However, at this moment, Alex desperately hoped to not return to Kidon City again. He had been staying in South City, in that mansion up in the mountains. He said that the maid had left him when they were at that mansion in South City, so he had to wait there. 1

Old Master Poole had not been able to contact Alex for three days. He asked that brat, Ryan, to bang on Alex's door, but Alex just would not open the door to see Ryan. With resignation, Old Master Poole personally called Sebastian.

"Sebastian, I have a favor to ask you. I know you and Alex have the closest relationship. You had saved his life back then when you were living in exile, and he treats you like his younger brother."
