With his confidantes penetrating the Ford Group, Sebastian was finally capable of turning the table on the Ford Family six years ago and removed every last member of the family from power overnight. Despite the shift of power, which should have caused chaos throughout the city or even the entire country, the Ford Group remained unwavering without being affected by the slightest. The first day Sebastian stepped in as the new Director of the Ford Group, all members of the upper management instantly greeted him as "Director Ford" like they had known him forever. That was precisely the moment when the old Master Ford and Sebastian's father Sean Ford finally discovered that they had underestimated him. Sebastian might have been sent away, but he had found a way to take charge of the Ford Group. The Ford Family had adhered to a rule to not pass on their legacy to illegitimate children, they would not be given any privilege or treated as one of the Ford Family's members, and Sebastian was the first one to ever have broken the rule.
Sebastian came close to eradicating the Ford Family b y its very roots until the old Master and Madame, his father and stepmother were the only one left. He came forth to finally speak his mind before his father and grandfather. 2
"I did not ask to be born, and certainly did not ask to b
e born an illegitimate child. You are responsible for m e the day I was born and I have every right to claim m y share as much as my siblings. If that is something you couldn't achieve, you shouldn't have had me!" He condemned, "Of course, you have paid for what you've done and there is no point regretting it anymore. I hope you've learnt your lesson and repent for your sins by ensuring there will be no illegitimate children t o be born in this family!" 1
Both Henry and Sean felt their hearts sink with remorse from his words. That night, they officially acknowledged Sebastian Ford's place in the family and announced him as the incoming Director of the Ford Group, admitting that Sebastian was indeed a member of the Ford's legacy. Sebastian had succeeded in the impossible had much to do with his ruthless perseverance and his talent in leadership, but the social circle he had been exposed to was also a large factor that aided his effort. 1
Everyone who had heard the name Sebastian Ford would say that he was a cruel man who had forgone his very own blood, but only the very few knew that his own blood was the one that had forsaken him and each took part in the endless assassination he had faced. It was the sworn brothers he had found later in life that truly devoted themselves in helping him with no regards to their own safety or benefits, and they were the reason Sebastian accomplished his present glory.
Each and every member of their inner circle was the ruler of their own empire in different domains. Sebastian had taken charge of the international hub city, the core to the Six Provinces of Evergreen; Kelvin had marked the Southwest Major Town as his territory; Martin who was situated in the North managed the industrial area; while Alex was located right in the middle among the four. Together, they were indestructible. No one in their right mind would have dared to challenge their authority, which contributed to Sebastian's unwavering status in the South City, i
He couldn't be bothered with the established nobles of the South City, and those that tried to mock or crack down on Sebastian were all living in fear. Many in the South City were desperate to introduce themselves to the almighty Sebastian Ford but he would seldom attend social events, and today was one of the rare occasions in years for Sebastian to gather his inner circle.
The main reason for Sebastian to organize such a meeting with his four sworn brothers was because he had finally tracked down the woman he had been searching for six years. He saw it as a chance to officially introduce her to them, and she blurted out saying that she was an escort he hired?
