Chapter 1454
Despite being in the suburbs, this was a mansion that cost millions of dors. What was he thinking,
setting this house on fire?
Sheridan then sighed and said, "You should go to the hospital first to check on your father. I''ll take
care of everything else."
Looking around and seeing this huge crowd of people, I couldn''t bring myself to ask him more. I did
as Sheridan said and got to the hospital. After examining, the doctors found out that Pedro was
choked by the smoke. Thankfully, he would be fine after sufficient rest.
At this moment, Evan headed to the Emperor Restaurant to take care of unfinished business,
whereas Sheridan followed up with John''s fire. I was left in the hospital corridor with Westin.
We sat there for a long time before I broke the silence and said, "Westin, I know that we have
parted ways. I won''t ask you too many questions. But since I helped you today, can you please tell
me, how is Kaleb still alive?"
Westin''s wound had been tightly bandaged by a doctor at this point, and he sat next to me in
complete silence.
It was a long unpleasant silence before he started speaking, "That wasn''t Kaleb''s body in Oand.
The Emperor Club is run jointly by Kaleb and Sebastian. So was the factory with the operating room
that you went to. But Sebastian had passed all these businesses over to Kaleb recently."
Hearing his words, I frowned. "What do you mean?"
He then looked at me and said, "I know you are looking for evidence of Sebastian''s illegal activities.
He knows too. When you visited the vige, he took the opportunity to make a deal with Kaleb. After
all these years, these businesses had turned sour and started bringing him more trouble than profit,
so Sebastian was trying to find a way to get rid of them. This was where you came in. He knew that
you wanted to investigate him and expose all of his wrongdoings, so he decided to lead you to
them. This was the reason he handed over all these businesses to Kaleb, so that he wouldn''t be the
one to bear the responsibilities."
I waspletely stunned. "Why did Kaleb agree to this?" They were all proud people. How could
he be willing to be a scapegoat?
"You don''t know Kaleb. He is a cruel person who shows no mercy to anyone, seeking nothing but
profit, but he cares for his subordinates with all his heart. Ever since the incident in Myanway, we''ve
been treated very poorly. When we came back here, it was Kaleb who wanted to coborate with
Sebastian. Kaleb was willing to do anything for Sebastian, as long as he promised that his
subordinates would be treated well and didn''t have to suffer."
I was caught in shock for a while before I spoke, "So, Sebastian has been leading me on and letting
me investigate all these things since the very beginning. Not only that, he wanted me to expose all
these crimes, so that he can get rid of them once and for all."
He then nodded.
It was a moment of shock for me, when I realized Sebastian''s intentions all along. Him calling me
and telling me about the organ trade in Asherton, even providing me with the name card. All of that
was to lead me to this point. Ultimately, he aimed to have me expose his dirty crimes.

I nced over at Westin as I asked, "Was it all part of the n, what happened to me at the
Emperor Club?"
He promptly nodded. "He purposely made you lose your child, so that you would make up your
mind to expose the Emperor Club."
Therefore, everything that happened went ording to his ns. All of this was just to lure me, to
use me as a tool to get what he wanted.
I wasn''t sure how to react to this. All this while, he had been stringing me along, like a dog on a
leash.
As soon as Westin saw the change of expression on my face, he bit on his lips and apologized to
me, "I am really sorry!"
After such a long day of torment, I shook my head with a face of exhaustion. Everything seemed to
be nothing more than a part of a well-plotted scheme.
Hendrix''s words crossed my mind suddenly, and I widened my eyes. "Westin, are you out of Kaleb''s
control now?"
