Alex looked unexpectedly relaxed. "What? He took action all of a sudden?"
Sebastian nodded. "Not too long ago, Alex Poole suddenly greatly increased the military personnel he's sending to the island by a large scale. He seems to know something. By that momentum, it looks like he wants to destroy me on that island. He deployed a third of his soldiers onto the island. He's pouring all his resources into this."
Alex laughed. "Sebastian, isn't this the ending you were hoping to see? My uncle is providing Star Island with military personnel and equipment."
Sebastian raised his hand and patted Alex's shoulder." No wonder you're my blood-brother!"
After a slight pause, he said, "Alex, after my attack on Star Island, you and your uncle will really be locking horns now."
Alex laughed. "It's just a matter of time before that happens. If you can successfully return from Star Island, then he'll lose at least half of his men. By then, he might not even dare to directly fall out with me. I'm just worried about Old Master Shaw..." 1
At the mention of the old man, Sebastian’s expression turned cold. "After taking over Star Island, I'll capture the Lynn family and hand over the three of them to
Sabrina to deal with as she pleases. The old man on the other hand, as long as he promises to remain quiet and stop any further actions, I'll even pay for his retirement! After all, not only did he help my family, h e even saved my mother's life. No matter what, I can't harm him.”
Alex sighed again. "Old Master Shaw is relying on the debt you owe him for saving Aunt Grace all those years ago. That's why he can be so bold and keep helping his granddaughter time and time again."
Sebastian sneered. "I pray the day doesn't come where he regrets his current actions."
Alex said, "Is there a hidden message in your words?”
Sebastian replied, "I'm not completely sure yet...”
Alex knew Sebastian very well, he would not easily tell others of things or plans he was not yet sure of. Alex did not want to force him either. He glanced at his watch and stood up, saying, "It’s late, I should go. Jane hasn’t been feeling very well recently, and I need to personally make sure she takes care of herself."
Sebastian said, "You're very attentive to her.”
Alex's expression warmed up and he smiled. "She’s been with me for six, seven years now. Even if she didn't contribute much, I have to appreciate her hard work. She’s the most obedient and understanding woman I've ever met. Since she decided to be with me, I have to be nice to her.”
Sebastian nodded. "Then you should stay, have dinner with us in my house later. I'll ask Sabrina to bring Jane over too."
Alex looked around Sebastian's flat. "Is it suitable for u s to be here?"
