Sebastian was speechless. He seemed to know who it was, but he was not certain. The person on the other end spoke again. "You’re luckier than me!"
Sebastian asked, "Holden?"
Holden sneered. "You've been living by her side all this while, but what about me? I have not even met her. When I learned about her, she had already been laid to rest!"
Sebastian asked, "Where are you?”
"Trying to get me killed?" asked Holden.
Sebastian said, "You are my only biological brother."
"Pfft!" cursed Holden furiously.
Sebastian was speechless. Holden sneered and said provokingly, "You won’t be able to find me anymore! Don’t need to be in a hurry. There is ample time for us i n the future, and we’ll cross that bridge when we're there!"
Upon saying that, he then hung up the phone. Sebastian took a look at his phone and smiled calmly. On this night that he did not manage to pursue his father and stepmother to Kidon City, Sebastian had no idea what they had done. However, he indeed was not able to walk away from this place.
Compared to those trivial matters, Alex's life was the
most important. Of course, deep down in Sebastian’s heart, Holden's life was equally important. However, at least Holden was still alive now, was he not?
Sebastian turned around and looked at Alex who was i n a deep sleep. The man on the hospital bed had tightly knitted eyebrows, and he kept calling out." Jane, Jane..."
Sebastian was speechless. He did not know how he should console Alex who was lying on the bed. Should he blame Alex for not appreciating what he had?
However, in those six years back then when Sebastian was desperately searching for Sabrina, Sebastian also had moments when he was very dispirited when he was in despair and had no news from the search. Therefore, he would not say such words to mock Alex. Sebastian did not even know if there was still a possibility for Alex and Jane in this lifetime. At this moment, he could only help this blood brother of his recover as soon as possible.
When Alex woke up from his sleep, it was already way past four o'clock in the afternoon. He had a very deep and sound sleep, so he appeared to be much more refreshed, though he still looked a little weak and pale.
"How did you get in, Sebastian?" Alex sat up. Alex had been drinking at his mansion and he had ordered the maids not to let anybody in, especially Ryan. To be more precise, especially anyone from the Poole family!
Alex’s father and the entire Poole family were hoping that he will marry Lily. Therefore, once he returned to Kidon City, there would be an endless wave of people coming to persuade him. However, his heart had been bleeding inside. He had also sent waves after waves of people out to the eastern area to search for Jane, but there was not the slightest news at all. She was pregnant, and it had been more than two months so far. In another two months, her pregnant belly would already be noticeable to others, right?
However, how could a pregnant woman survive alone out there? How?
Alex was so anxious that his heart almost caught on fire, but what could he do? Just like that, he hid himself in that mansion that Jane had been thrown out of. He drowned his sorrows in alcohol, and then he would wake up and do it all over again. Sometimes, he felt that being drunk was quite good because he could see Jane in his dreams. She was still so gentle and obedient.
