    "Are you telling me what to do?" Dean sneered.

    "Dad, I''m just worried that this will affect our family. Avery said on the phone that she won''t let


    Ang live, and she has all the power Elliot had at her expense. Are you really going to go against


    them?" Sebastian said. "We won''t stand a chance. If we already know that we are going to lose,


    why are we still doing this?"


    "You''ve overestimated yourself, Sebastian. Your brother is better than you because he believed in


    me, but of course, that makes him more foolish than you are." Deanmented on his sons with


    contempt. "If what you foresee is the same thing as I expect, do you really think I would go up


    against them? I''m seventy-three this year, boy. I''ve been through more than you can imagine. Are


    you saying all this because you think I''ve lost my mind from old age?!"


    "That''s not it, Dad... I''m not doubting you. I''m just worried that our family would get dragged into


    unnecessary conflict," Sebastian said while trying to figure out what his father meant. "Dad, if you or


    Aunt Ang refuse to reply to Avery''s message, she is going to storm up to our gates."


    "I will replyter. I''m a bit upied now so I don''t have time for her."


    Dean seemed to be in a good mood, but Sebastian could not figure out what leverage his father


    held, or more precisely, what leverage Ang had. If Ang had only kidnapped Elliot, they should


    not be this confident. 1


    "Sebastian, you don''t have to worry about this anymore. I''m giving you a new mission," Dean said


    after a few thoughtful moments. "I''ve promised Natalie that I will help herplete the target Elliot


    set for her. Once she gets her hands on the shares for Tate Industries, she will transfer them to me."


    "Oh. If you two already have a deal, what do you want me to do?" Sebastian was slightly confused.


    "Keep an eye on her. She''s just like me when I was younger: proud, sensitive and reckless. She is


    way more talented than you and your brother. It''s a shame that she''s a woman. If she was a man,


    you ?f)>RIY> your brother would have no ce in this family!" Dean said with contempt.


    Sebastian knew that this was a trick that Dean used to keep his children from getting too close to


    one another. He did not wish for his children to get along, fearing that they would work together to


    challenge his authority in the household. Hence, he made it a habit to say things that were meant to


    turn his children against one another.


    Dean''s method was effective and the children who grew up in the Jennings family were practically


    strangers.


    After the call with his father, Sebastian called Avery right away. "My dad says he will call you back


    later, but I''m not sure when." He paused and looked around, before lowering his voice. "He''s in the


    office now. If you don''t want to wait, you can go confront him at the office. As for Ang, I don''t


    know where she is."


    "Thank you," Avery said, before hanging up. She turned to look at Mike and said, "We are going to


    MediLove Pharmaceutical."


    "Are you sure?" Mike was slightly hesitant. "We can''t just storm in there. That''s Dean Jennings''


    territory... Let me just gather some forces."


    "Sure." Avery was excited, butposed at the same time. She knew that it had alle down to


    this moment to determine if they could rescue Elliot.
