    Chapter 88 Aren''t You Afraid I''ll Embarrass You


    Sebastian nced at Hailey with an impassive expression.


    "Ms. Logan, if you''re avable tomorrow, please bring the doctor along. If you manage to cure


    Waylon, I''ll genuinely appreciate your help."


    Hailey was pleased by Sebastian''s words.


    She shot a provocative look at Eleanor.


    Eleanor could let Eleanor be Mrs. Moore for now, but it wouldn''t be long before she took everything


    back.


    "Seb, don''t worry. I''ll bring the doctor over tomorrow," Hailey replied confidently and left happily.


    However, she couldn''t shake off her unease about Sebastian''s attitude towards Eleanor.


    Besides, she didn''t see Kingston when she came over today.


    Eleanor didn''t take her provocation seriously. She had expected that the Logan family had be


    the target of Sebastian and Michael.


    Eleanor lowered her gaze, reflecting on what happened recently, and wondered whether she might


    have overlooked any details.


    However, she didn''t notice Sebastian''s scrutinizing eyes on her.


    Sebastian had a feeling that Eleanor was as simple as she seemed.


    "There''s a banquet tomorrow evening. You''ll go with me."


    He suddenly spoke to her, which jolted Eleanor back to the reality.


    She blinked her eyes and just realized what he said.


    "Me?" She pointed at herself in disbelief.

    Was he willing to take her to the banquet?


    Showing up with him in a public event meant he acknowledged her as his wife.


    But that was precisely what she wanted. She wanted to seek revenge.


    With the title of Sebastian''s wife, she''d have done that more easily.


    She felt sorry, but when she had her revenge, she could repay Sebastian for raising her son.


    "Yes, it''s you," Sebastian replied with a cold wicked smile.


    Indeed, it was wicked.


    Eleanor had a feeling that she was like a hunted prey.


    "Aren''t you afraid I''ll embarrass you?" Eleanor asked with a provoking tone.


    With her red lips and attractive smile, she looked elegant and proud.


    Sebastian asked, "Do you think you''ve embarrassed yourself?"


    Eleanor responded with a confident smile, "Well, at least my face won''t bring shame to you."


    She was an orphan.


    her only asset was her pretty and captivating face.


    Sebastian gazed at her and had to admit her remarkable beauty.


    "I''m heading to the study to work," Sebastian said as he called Vincent to push him to the study.


    Eleanor knew Sebastian had a lot of work to do. After dinner, she took her son for a walk in the


    garden to help digest the food.


    ...


    Inside Michael''s office, the atmosphere was filled with tension.


    He sat there with a stern expression.


    Daniel failed toplete his mission and was brutally beaten by Michael. He had a broken arm,


    and his head was wounded.


    he appeared ratherical. asionally, he would timidly sneak a nce at Michael, whose gaze


    was chilling.


    Daniel had his head wrapped in gauze and his arm was in a cast. He looked quite funny and felt


    scared.


    He peered at Michael from time to time and saw his cold re.


    Daniel shuddered. It had been several days, but Michael was still furious.


    "Mr. Michael, there''s a banquet tomorrow night. We''re sure to find an opportunity to deal with Hailey


    and Aubrey. They won''t miss such events."


    "Did I ever say I''ll deal with them?" Michael said in a hoarse voice.


    Michael looked at Daniel''s face coldly, "You jerk! I told you to find someone with good martial skills,


    but all you managed to find were a bunch of amateurs who got taken down in seconds. What a


    shame."


    Michael hated it when things went out of his control.


    He had staged a car ident for Sebastian in order to kill him.


    But Sebastian managed to survive and was disabled. Unexpectedly, there came Melody, who was a


    great trouble.


    Michael''s face was cold and grim.


    It was as if the whole world owed him something.


    "It was a mistakest time. That Melody looked slender and fragile, and who would have thought


    she''d have the guts to knock out the driver? I''ve never seen a woman so tough."


    Normally, if a woman was kidnapped, she would cry and beg for mercy while trembling in fear. He


    enjoyed seeing them that scared and submissive.


    Michael frowned. Uncle Sebastian''s men had been watching himtely.


    He didn''t dare to make any moves.


    Melody was kidnapped right at the entrance to the Moores'' manor, and he was sure Sebastian had


    suspected him.


    With him protecting Melody, it was difficult for him to take action again.


    What was strange was that he couldn''t seem to trace Melody, and she just disappeared off the


    radar.


    The more Michael thought about it, the angrier he got. His face turned sullen.


    Daniel was a bit helpless and felt he''d been having a run of bad lucktely.


    "Mr. Michael, Mrs. Ryker has lost 14 million dors at the casino. I heard she went there again


    today."


    Michael sneered, "Well, she''s got the money to lose. If she''d invested it in a decent project, she


    could''ve made a few million more."


    Michael didn''t want to meddle with the Ryker family''s problems. He had been putting off getting


    married with Caroline, and he didn''t really like her. But she and her mom knew the secret about his


    mom.


    For him, he was fine with marrying anyone. Caroline''s always been a good girl, and marrying her


    wouldn''t be so bad.


    What he pursued was the ultimate power.


    With that on his mind, he looked at Daniel and said, "Tell Caroline she''sing with me to the


    banquet tomorrow evening."


    "Okay, Mr. Michael." Daniel turned to make the call.


    Michael leaned back in his chair, and he was in a foul mood.


    He felt something was off, but he couldn''t quite put his finger on it.


    Daniel returned in a hurry and said, "Mr. Michael, I got a call from the Sannot Courtyard. Mrs. Ryker


    confronted Eleanor today, but she was the one who got punished. Mr. Moore took back her shares,


    and that pretty much killed Ms. Moore''s career in the entertainment industry."


    In the metropolis of Gorna, where over 14 million people lived, a single word from Sebastian had


    the power to be a death sentence for anyone.


    Waylon was Sebastian''s boundary, and anyone who dared to cross that line would pay a hefty price.


    "Well," Michael sneered, "Could it possibly be worse than what I''m going through right now?"


    He still couldn''t move his arm and had been kicked out of the Moore family."


    Daniel fell silent.


    After thinking for a while, he changed the topic, "Mr. Michael, I heard that Mr. Moore will be


    attending the banquet tomorrow evening. Do you think he might bring Eleanor with him?"


    "Do you really think Sebastian will care about such a humble woman?"


    Michael remembered Eleanor''s captivating face. Whether she was happy or angry, she looked


    pretty.


    But every time he recollected what happened that night, he wished he could kill her.


    "By the way, have you managed to dig up any information about the woman I mistook that night?"


    Daniel shook his head and replied, "Not yet. Old Master Moore has been keeping her close. He


    recently took some time off at a fishing vige, and she''s been cooking delicious meals for him. We


    haven''t had an opportunity to make a move."


    "Do you know her name yet?" Michael couldn''t ept that he still didn''t know the truth that night.


    It was clear that Eleanor had had set him up.
