Although Holden resented Sean and Rose, he knew that Sean was right. He had already experienced how vicious and mighty his elder twin brother was when Holden was on Star Island. Star Island was not huge o r developed, and Harry's defense measures were not very good. However, Holden did a very good job.
Even so, Holden was not able to defend Sebastian from conquering the city. It only took three days for Sebastian to take over the entire Star Island. After that, Holden found out that the reason that Sebastian only used three days to conquer the island was because he was waiting. He had been waiting for a few local people in power on Star Island to report the real estate and financial situation of the island to him.
The main thing was the liquidation of the batch of weapons Axel had financed. The weapons were originally financed by Axel for the island, but the entirety of the weapons was taken by Sebastian without much effort. Sebastian had taken off a portion of the weapons for his own use. As for the rest, Sebastian had made as much as one billion dollars of profit out of them. Within a short trip to Star Island that lasted only one week, not only did Sebastian make a huge profit, but he also conquered Star Island and made Holden homeless. That was Sebastian Ford.
Holden had long heard and witnessed how great Sebastian was with schemes. Also, Holden even knew
Sebastian was merciless and extremely vicious to his elder brothers. Therefore, Holden knew Sean was speaking the truth at this moment.
Holden could not help but ask Sean. "My brother... those that were older than him were..." 1
"Those that were older than Sebastian were also your brothers! They were my biological sons!" Rose spoke again.
Holden looked at Rose with an expression full of hostility.
Rose was not bothered. She just continued, "My biological sons are all dead because of Sebastian! Now, the entire Ford Group is under Sebastian's control. Even your father has no right to participate in the company’s strategies, let alone you!"
Rose was very clear with her words, but Holden sneered. "I don’t care for that at all!"
"You don't care for that. The two of you are truly twins. The viciousness and stubbornness in your bones are the same, but I'll still say the same thing."
Holden looked at Rose with annoyance. "What?”
"You're only in your thirties. You have to stay alive. You still have a bright future ahead of you. You still have to get married and have kids. Your father had already lost your three elder brothers. He doesn't wish to see you and your elder twin brother go against each other," said Rose calmly.
Holden sneered again. "You? This kind?"
Rose said, "I'm already old..."
"Bullsh*t!" Holden immediately interjected Rose's words.
Rose said, "You..."
Holden rolled his eyes condescendingly. "Old hag! I a m well aware of those cruel things you've done to my biological mother back then! Therefore, you should blame yourself for being cruel first before you blame m y brother for being vicious! I am not your biological child, but I am the son of your love rival! Not only that, my brother had also killed those sons of yours, and you're telling me you will treat me like your own son now? Do you think you're lying to a three-year-old child?" 1
Hearing Holden scold herself like this, Rose did not refute at all, but she cried instead. Her tone became incomparably clear. "Holden, you're not me, so how would you know my pain and difficulties? I was only i n my thirties back then, not yet forty."
