Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 948

Sebastian, who rarely spoke, heaved a long, deep sigh. He finally said, "This piece of land belonged to my mother’s family. They have been controlling this area for generations. Although it wasn't well-developed, the people here lived in peace and harmony. Later on, the Ford family shattered the peace the islanders enjoyed and drove my mother’s family to extinction. She harbored her hatred in her chest till the day she died."

"Although I carry the Ford name, half of my blood belongs to the Summer family and flows in my veins. I came here to find what I was looking for. How could I wage war on this land and cause pain and suffering for its residents?”

Sabrina could not help herself and hugged her husband when she listened to his words, "My dear..."

He continued, "Since I was a teenager living in exile abroad, I had been planning for this day, building my private army step by step, growing and strengthening i t, stationing them all over the world, wherever they were needed."

"Holden, haven't you considered the fact that I have m y private army, and each of my soldiers is a battle-hardened veteran. Only 20,000 or 30,000 of them are enough to conquer the whole island." "Neither you nor your eldest brother Harry knew when

I started sending my men to this island. Do you think the last six years of my life have been spent in vain?"

"I expanded my influence on this island little by little t o not cause wide-scale damage. All the money, men, and weaponry that Axel Poole from Kidon City and Old Master Shaw deployed to you have already fallen into my hands. The more they gave you, the more I gained out of this."

"I chose to come here at this moment because I know Axel Poole and his sphere of influence. He could not afford to deploy more of his forces to Star Island. This was his limit.”

"That’s why I decided to reel in my catch."

Holden was silent.

As he listened to Sebastian, his heart plummeted deep into the pit of his stomach like a rock.

It turned out that Sebastian had been laying the foundation and planning for this day.

It turned out that even if Sebastian was not physically present on the island, Star Island was already his. Thus, both Holden and his irredeemably foolish brother were confident they had a high chance of winning this battle.

They even requested help from the Poole family endlessly and even allowed the three members of the Lynn family to live in their manor.
