The man sat up abruptly in shock.
At that moment, he realized that the reason Sabrina was acting so abnormally today was because she planned to divorce him.
"No!" the man retorted with a cold expression.
Sabrina tried to explain herself, "I already know that it wasn't you who sent those hitmen after me. Instead, you spent the last six years trying to look for Aino and I.
"As such, it's my fault that you lost out on precious time.
"I heard that you had planned to take over that island city in the southeast region but was forced to delay it for six whole years because of me.
"The enemies who harmed Aunt Grace, no, I mean Mom, and killed her entire family are still there, right?"
Sebastian had never expected that Sabrina would know so much of his conquest.
He had made it a habit not to speak about it in front of her, as he did not wish for Sabrina to get involved in bloodshed.
"Was it Kingston who told you about it earlier this evening? You said you had to discuss something about his cousin with him downstairs, but you guys
were talking about this matter instead?" asked Sebastian.
Sabrina shook her head solemnly. "No."
Sebastian kept quiet, signalling for her to continue.
"It was Old Master Shaw," Sabrina said after letting out a heavy breath. "He came over to the company to speak with me today.
"Compared to our previous encounters, he seemed much more polite.
"He told me about your situation, about how you have always longed to take down the island and its occupants. Old Master Shaw also said that he could be of a big help to you in regard to manpower, since he has a lot of subordinates in both the military and political fields.
"With his support and help, your chances of a victory will be much greater. You are Aino's dad after all, so I don’t want anything bad happening to you during your conquest.
"If you were to run into trouble there, Aino may end up having the same childhood as me. Not being able to experience fatherly love, being bullied by others and getting all sorts of unfair treatment. 1
"If that's the case, I would rather divorce you now. I don't want Aino to lose her dad.
"Ever since we were brought back here, I noticed that her personality has undergone many obvious
changes.
