Chapter 962 Alexis’s Identity
“When you went to the countryside with your ssmates…” Damien began; his voice was soft and
gentle.
“The two with you: This is Lucy and Mandy.”
“I know Lucy, but who is Mandy?” Cherise inquired, her curiosity piqued.
“She is also one of your closest friends…” Damien exined.
Within the halls of Adania Hospital, Sebastiany upon the sterile sheets of his hospital bed, his
expression etched with concern. “What’s that you’re telling me? Alexis has vanished?” His voice held a
note of urgency.
Ynda, standing by his bedside, pressed her lips together in a tight line, her gaze dropping to the floor
before she softly confirmed, “Yes, he’s gone.”
“I had a disagreement with Cherise in the auditorium She stormed off afterward. When Mrs. Lydia
escorted me to locate Alexis, he was nowhere to be found.”
.
“I instructed Mrs. Lydia to review the surveince footage, but the person who took Alexis remained
elusive. All we discerned was a figure d in navy attire…”
Ynda cast a pained nce toward Sebastian, her voice conveying remorse. “Truly, it wasn’t my
doing. I never imagined someone would dare to venture to the orphanage and snatch away a
defenseless child.”Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.
“Heh, but he’s no ordinary orphan,” Sebastian interjected, his eyes narrowing thoughtfully.
“And when does the old man intend to release you?” he inquired further.
“Tomorrow,” Ynda replied with resignation.
“Very well,” Sebastian conceded.
Sebastian drew in a deep breath, his resolve evident in the steely glint of his eyes. “Join me this
afternoon at the Lenoir Residence.”
“The Lenoir Residence?” Ynda echoed, her voice tinged with disbelief
“Yes, Damien and Cherise’s home precisely,” Sebastian affirmed without hesitation.
Ynda’s eyes widened in rm. “Sebastian, are you truly considering this? They hold such animosity
toward you. Venturing there seems like inviting trouble.”
“Even if their hatred runs deep,” Sebastian retorted with a hint of icy amusement, “do you truly believe
they’d dare to murder me within the confines of their own abode in broad daylight?”
Ynda’s lips tightened into a thin line as her gaze flickered to Sebastian’s tightly bandaged thigh.

Chapter 962 Alexis’s Identity
The memory of Damien’s callous act, firing a bullet into Sebastian’s leg at the bar under the Weiss
Group, lingered in her mind like a haunting specter.
Here was Sebastian, willingly putting himself in harm’s way by personally confronting Damien at his
own residence. What if Damien’s rage once again spiraled out of control, leading to irreversible
consequences this time?
Anxiety gnawed at her, and she hesitated. “Could I… perhaps opt out of this?”
Sebastian’s cold stare pierced through her hesitation. Nothing untoward will ur. Don’t sumb to
fear so easily.”
He paused, a wry smile on his lips as he regarded Ynda. “Furthermore,” he continued, his voice
carrying a hint of intrigue, “don’t you wish to see Damien, the man you once admired, within the
confines of his own domain?”
Ynda was rendered speechless.
In truth, her fascination with Damien had waned over time.
in’s admonition, likening her desire to a toad aspiring to dine on a swan’s flesh, had prompted
introspection.
Perhaps she realized that her attraction to Damien had been manipted by Gwenn and Sebastian all
along.
Deep down, she acknowledged that Damien’s character wasn’t indeed to her liking.
The figure beside him, fair and noble in demeanor, seemed far more appealing inparison.
“Then it’s settled,” Sebastian dered, his gaze piercing as he locked eyes with Ynda. “Join me at
the Lenoir residence this afternoon.”
“I’m determined to discover who’s behind Alexis’s disappearance,” Sebastian affirmed, his resolve
unwavering.
Ynda’s brow furrowed with concern, her long-held doubts spilling forth. “What exactly is the
significance of this Alexis? Considering he’s just a child, is he truly worth all this effort?”
Moreover, he’s an unwanted orphan!
Sebastian’s eyes narrowed, a faintly sinister smile dancing on his lips. “His identity holds significance;
otherwise, my concern wouldn’t be so pronounced.”
A moment of silence passed as Sebastian contemted the situation. “Fortunately, Cherise suffers
from amnesia now,” he mused aloud. “Otherwise…”
The implication hung heavy in the air. If Cherise retained her memories, any hope of adopting Alexis
would be dashed.
Ynda pressed further, her skepticism evident. “And what of your intentions once you’ve adopted this
child? Will you truly be a nurturing father figure to him?”
“Yes.”
Sebastian’sughter rang out, cold and calcted. “Rest assured, I will mold this child into my own son
and, in time, utilize him as a tool to settle scores with Damien and Lennon. It will be just right.”
