Aino was just like an adult. Sebastian could not help but choke back a sob when he saw his daughter being so sensible.
"Sebastian." Alex got up and looked at Sebastian." Sebastian, I know how much you hate the people in the Ford Residence. I also know how much you don't want to attend your grandfather's funeral. However, Sebastian, I'm telling you that perhaps this may also b e an opportunity."
Sebastian’s eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at Alex and signaled him to continue on.
At that very moment, the calmest person in Sebastian’s house was Alex. "Your grandfather has passed away so all kinds of people will be coming over when the time comes. You will also certainly be very busy. They will think that you will be less vigilant. Once they think we are less vigilant, they will think that they have an opportunity and could take advantage of it. When the time comes, we will then unknowingly..."
"Got it!" Sebastian immediately understood what Alex said. He then said coldly and somberly, "I will go take care of the funeral arrangements. Also, I will arrange i t at a grand scale. I want to see what other tricks Rose can come up with."
Regarding the matter of Sabrina being abducted by
Holden, if it was just his father alone who was involved, he certainly could not be tricked so easily like that. Rose certainly must have meddled in it as well. After all, those few sons of Rose were killed by Sebastian. She did not do anything when she did not have the chance. Once she had the chance, Rose would certainly lunge herself to attack Sebastian.
Alex sneered. "Speaking of Rose, I have to tell you, Sebastian, I was the one who brought your father over, so I had understood the situation a little bit while we were on the way. I only found out after I heard it from Mister Ford that Holden had indeed gone to look for Rose before he decided on abducting Aino. He wanted Rose and Mister Ford to get hold of Aino by lying to her. Initially, Mister Ford did not agree, but Rose was very supportive of it."
When he heard Alex say that, Sebastian raised his fist and punched it on the wall. He punched so hard that his hand was bleeding.
"Dad..." Aino felt heartbroken and she hugged her father’s hand.
Sebastian smiled gently at her daughter. "I’m fine. It's all good." 2
He hugged his daughter and suddenly felt a feeling of him and his daughter being dependent on each other. He thought again, in the five years back then, Sabrina and Aino must have depended on each other like that, right? 1
Aino ran off from her father’s arms and came back with a first aid kit. She was just a little child, but she already knew who to apply medicine for her father. After she was done, Aino raised her gaze to look at Sebastian. "Dad, I want to attend my great-grandpa's funeral with you."
Sebastian nodded. "I will take you with me."
No one knew what they were feeling.
Early the next morning, Sebastian drove Aino to the Ford Residence. At that moment, both inside and outside of the Ford Residence was covered with miserably sad while cloth. There had already been no less than a hundred high-end cars parked outside the Ford Residence. One by one, people came down from the cars to pay their respects and condolences.
Sebastian and Aino were both wearing full black clothes and they slowly walked into the white and somber Ford Residence. Everyone was shocked when they saw the father and daughter duo's arrival. Even the guests who were present were also shocked. After all, Sebastian's wife being abducted was no small matter. Everyone in high society had known about it. Moreover, they also knew that Sebastian hated his father and stepmother greatly because of that matter. Therefore, they did not expect that Sebastian would bring his daughter and come to mourn.
It was within Sebastian’s expectation that those people would be shocked. However, what made Sebastian greatly surprised was that he saw a person. That woman was standing behind Rose, and she was trying her best to make herself look as if she had a sorrowful and solemn expression. However, her tone had a smugness that could not be suppressed." Sebastian, we meet again."
Sebastian looked at her coldly. "Lily Parker, are you the mastermind behind this?"
