Chapter 117


    Sebastian was proficient in ip reading, and caught Gabriel’s mattered threat, “I’lle back and


    deal with youter.”


    He dismissed the threat with indifference.


    Surveying the crowd kneeling before him, he couldn’t resist a sneer. “All of you were so bold


    earlier, and now you grovel before me?”


    “We kneel for Lord Wavebreaker, not you! Who the hell are you?” Lionel retorted fiercely.


    “That’s right, this guy is so arrogant. He must have angered Lord Wavebreaker, and that’s why


    we’re being punished,” another voice chimed in.


    “Daring to anger Lord Wavebreaker is a death sentence! He’ll never let you off, you’re as good as


    dead,d, someone else added.


    The crowd’s anger was palpable as they hurled usations at Sebastian.


    Unfazed, Sebastian scoffed, “You fools still don’t grasp the situation. Didn’t you notice how Lord


    Wavebreaker didn’t even dare to breathe loudly after meeting me? I’m the only one who can handle


    him.”


    “How dare you!”


    “Insolence!”


    “Such arrogance!”


    “How dare you insult Lord Wavebreaker! Even if he overlooks it, his men won’t spare you. You’re


    dead!”


    The crowd was seething.


    “Sebastian, stop this. If you keep this up, you’re really heading for a dead end,” Lillian interjected


    angrily


    Sebastian just smiled and responded confidently, “I’m not talking nonsense. Everything I’ve said is


    true. I would say the same even if Lord Wavebreaker stood before me right now.


    Pointing at Sebastian, Lionel gritted his teeth and spat out, “You fool, you’re just begging for death. I


    bet you won’t see tomorrow’s sunrise. If you do, I’ll ditch my family name and call myself a Wilder.”


    “Deal. Make sure to remember, you’ll be a wilder from tomorrow onward,” Sebastian replied.


    “You sure are sharp–tongued. We’ll see how long you can keep this up,” Linnel furned, his anger


    simmering.


    Jordan scoffed, “Mr. Lionel, there’s no need to get upset over a dead man walking. Once it gets


    dark, we’ll make our move and send this kid to the great beyond!”


    Lillian paled at their threats. She rushed to Sebastian, handing him a card “There’s a million dors


    in the card. Take the money and get as far away as you can, fast.”


    Lionel exploded, his face twisted in rage “Lillian, you’re my fiancée How can you betray me like


    this?”


    Evelyn was equally incensed as shechimed in, “You foolish girl! If you give him that money, you’re


    no longer my daughter”


    Elijah’s voice was stern as he added, “Your mother is right. Put that card away. If you dare give it to


    him, I’ll disown you from the family.”


    Ronan, Lucas, and others also joined in on criticizing her.


    To them, a million dors was nothing, but giving it to Sebastian was uneptable. They all


    thoroughly despised Sebastian, and helping him was tantamount to opposing everyone else.


    Despite the rising hostility, Sebastian remained infuriatingly calm. He turned to Lillian, a soft smile


    ying on his lips. “Lan, keep your card. I won’t take it, and I’m not leaving Ravenview City.”


    “But you’ll die if you stay,” Lillian insisted, her voiceden with worry.


    “Don’t worry, the person who can kill me hasn’t been born yet, Sebastian replied confidently, then


    pulled Lillian into his arms.


    “What are you doing? Lian eximed. She was startled and attempted to pull away


    “Don’t move, let me hold you for a while, Sebastian whispered.


    Sensing the gravity of the moment, Lillian stopped resisting. A pang of sorrow shot through her;


    Sebastian’s time might be running out, and she wouldn’t deny him this small


    sce.


    The sight sent Lionel into a blind rage. “Let her go!”

    “I won’t Want her back? Come and get her yourself, Sebastian taunted with a mocking smile,


    beckoning Lionel with his fingers.
