Chapter 157


    “You really came, Ian.”


    Sasha was incredibly shocked. She followed Matt and saw a small human at the bottom of their condo.


    He was apanied by a man wearing dark sunsses and an all-ck attire. They stood


    unmovingly at the entrance.


    This child…


    Sasha panicked and dashed back into the house to open the door and head down.


    “Mommy…”


    When she arrived downstairs, she immediately saw the child standing at the building’s entrance.

    Despite being dressed in a thick down jacket, a hat, and mittens, the extremely cold weather had


    turned his cheeks red. Even his snot had frozen.


    “What are you doing? Why did you bring him here when it’s so cold?”


    “I’m sorry, Ms. Wand. We had no choice. Ian was making a fuss abouting here. He’s insisting on


    going to preschool with Matt.”


    The bodyguard who was holding an umbre rushed to exin.


    Sasha was left with no other option but to carry her son in. Once her other two children were done


    eating, she took them to the preschool.


    At Hayes Corporation in the center of the city.


    Sebastian, who had just arrived at the office, switched off his phone after he received the photo from


    the bodyguard showing that the three children had entered the preschool. He picked up hisptop and


    went into his office.


    Luke walked in to announce that day’s schedule.


    “Mr. Hayes, tasks had piled up since you were absent from the office for two days. You might want to


    read the email from Ms. Green first.”


    “Xandra?”


    Sebastian, who had just taken his seat, was initially in a good mood. However, his two shapely


    eyebrows were now furrowed. “What email?”


    Luke immediately brought out hisptop and opened the email from Xandra.


    To be honest, it was rather contemptuous.


    Even though Xandra had known Sebastian for many years, she still could not send him emails.


    Sebastian’s inbox had a spam filter. Other thanpany matters, no one else could send him emails.


    This included Xandra.


    Sebastian scanned the email and realized it was a draft.


    “Mr. Hayes, Ms. Green says that this is the draft she had just finished writing. She’s about to hand it


    over to the editors, but she wanted you to look it over first. If there’s nothing wrong, she’ll send it to the


    editors,” exined Luke.


    Whenever Xandra wrote a new book, she would ask Sebastian to read the final draft. He would always


    provide her with a satisfactory answer in the shortest amount of time.


    However, after Sebastian scanned thistest draft, Luke caught sight of annoyance shing past his


    eyes.


    “Set it aside first. Bring the other tasks over.”


    “Yes, Mr. Hayes.”


    Luke closed theptop and handed the schedule over.


    Less than ten minutester, Sebastian was done looking through the schedule. He walked into the


    meeting room with the documents andptop in hand.


    For the rest of the day, there was not even a moment’s rest.


    However, he could not have expected that on this day, the unimaginable would ur.


    “Mr. Hayes, there’s been a problem. Mr. Hayes Sr. suddenly went to the preschool and took the two


    boys out.”


    “What did you just say?”


    Sebastian was so shocked that the pen in his hand fell and ttered onto the table.


    What is this old man doing? Why is he pulling such a stunt all of a sudden? Doesn’t he know that I just


    managed to bring the two children back to the country? What if that woman is pissed off by this?


    What if she disappears again?


    Sebastian’s expression shiftedpletely. He sprang to his feet and dashed out of the meeting room


    with no regard for the ongoing meeting.


    The people left in the room shared dazed looks.


    Mr. Hayes’s behavior is bing more erratic…


    A few minutester, a ck Bentley sped out of the car park. Sebastian stepped on the gas pedal as


    he called his father on Bluetooth.


    Ring… Ring… Ring…


    “Hello?”


    “What are you doing, Dad? Why did you suddenly take the two children out of preschool? Did you ask


    me for permission first?”


    When he heard his father’s voice, Sebastian exploded with anger.


    Before he could finish speaking, his father roared back, “You piece of shit. How dare you talk to me like


    that? You knew full well that I have two grandchildren, and my granddaughter-inw was still alive. But


    you kept it from me!”


    For a long time, his ear buzzed.


    “Dad, I have my reasons for not telling you.”


    “As if. Do you really think I don’t know what goes on in that mind of yours? Sasha is innocent. If it was


    any other woman, she wouldn’t have let you off.” The old man continued to berate Sebastian.


    Sebastian’s veins throbbed as he listened to his father, and he constantly wanted to rebuke him.


    Innocent?


    How about I rip her open to show you her true colors? Why don’t you see for yourself what she did the


    past two days?


    Sebastian gnashed his teeth together. As he drove, he willed himself to stay calm.
