Chapter 2166


    "Sebastian, sometimes the mere concept of something is enough to earn you a fortune. I don''t


    actually need them to replicate Ang''s reachpletely. As long as they manage to recreate a


    close-enough shell of what it actually is, we can sell it." Dean smiled triumphantly.


    "So how did the meeting go with Ang''s team, then? What did they say?" Sebastian''s heart sank.


    If the team hadprehended Ang''s research fully, Dean would have the power to ckmail


    Avery and Elliot; but if they weren''t fully familiarized with how the device worked, Dean would not be


    able to control the two.


    "Only one of them came today and I just had a brief talk with him." Dean leaned back in the chair


    and closed his eyes. "He said that Ang had only exposed each of them to different parts of the


    whole research so we won''t seed unless we get everyone in that team on board."


    "I knew Ang would not let anyone near the core information of her research." Sebastian quietly


    sighed a breath of relief, knowing that for now, his father would not be able to do anything to Elliot


    and Avery.


    No matter who would win in this tug of war, Sebastian would hate to see them going against one


    another.


    "Sebastian, you won’t be telling Avery this, right?" Dean’s eyes snapped open as he stared at


    Sebastian hysterically. "If you dare to tell anyone what I said just now, don''t doubt for a moment that


    I will kill you!


    Terrified, Sebastian shook his head frantically. "Dad, I''ve cut all ties with Avery. Ever since they


    scammed our family of 2.1 billion, I came to realize that Avery and I are not on the same side."


    "If you didn''t realize that after what happened, you aren''t worthy enough to be my heir!" Dean said


    sternly. "Sebastian, everything you have right now is yours because of me! I cast your brother aside,N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    but don''t overestimate how important you are to me because of that! If you dare to work against me,


    I would rather not have an heir! I''ve worked all my life to prove myself and I didn''t umte my


    wealth to build a legacy or anything! Frankly, 1 don''t care if you all live or die! I don''t care about


    what happened to the Jennings family after my death. All I am going to do is to enjoy my life in the


    present!"


    Dean had a different mindsetpared to most parents. Sebastian had known from the very


    beginning that though he was the only heir in the Jennings family, the definition of an heir for him


    was different from others'' thoughts because Dean didn''t treat him any differently.


    "Dad, I''m not that foolish," Sebastian responded in all seriousness. "I don’t want to go back to living


    in poverty anymore."


    "As long as you know your ce. Without me and the Jennings family, you are nothing!"


    "Yes.”


    "We are on the same boat here and you need to start learning how to make money from me." After


    being rushed to the hospital, Dean had a slight change of mind. Back when he had Ang by his


    side, she would feed him medicine that kept him energetic every single day, so he was absorbed in


    the illusion that he could live forever. Since the day Ang died, he could distinctly feel how his


    health had declined.


    "Okay. I will work hard to not bring shame to your name," Sebastian said and was suddenly


    reminded of Natalie as he spoke." Did you send anyone to look for Natalie?"


    "She ran back to Arydalle." Naturally, Dean did not intend to let Natalie live. No matter where she


    ran to, he vowed to bring her back and make her pay for scamming him.


    "If she can''t survive in Bridgedale, her situation won''t be any better in Aryadelle." Sebastian couldn’t


    figure out what Natalie''s next step would be.
