Chapter 118
Abigail Tanner had been crying for a long time. When she calmed down, Sebastian Simons called
Ethan Zordon in and told him with a gloomy face, "Send her back. Make sure she has a good rest.
Let me know if she''s not feeling well."
Sebastian then walked out of the room coldly. When he walked past Yasmine Taylor, she stretched
out her hand and wanted to stop him, "Seb..."
However, he immediately walked past her as if he had not noticed her at all. It seemed like he didn''t
hear her calling him, but then, it also seemed like he had heard her but he just didn''t want to say
anything.
Yasmine stared at her hand which was hanging in mid- air. Before she could even feel sad, she
immediately quickened her pace and followed after him. Needless to say, a thunderstorm was about
toe.
Both of them were sitting in Sebastian''s car but neither of them said a word. No one could handle
knowing this shocking truth which came so abruptly. Sebastian was of course furious, while
Yasmine was hurt in her heart.
If what Abigail said was true, then the real problem between her and Sebastian had finally emerged.
In the blink of an eye, the car arrived at the Mansion House. Normally, after Sebastian had gotten
out of the car, he would immediately go over to open the door for Yasmine. But today, it was as if he
had forgotten about her existence. He did not open the door for her, instead he rushed to the living
room alone after getting out of the car.
Although Yasmine was a little disappointed, she could understand the anger that Sebastian was
feeling right now. The current Sebastian must have felt like killing someone.
Yasmine followed him closely into the living room. At a nce, she saw her mother-inw sitting on
the sofa in the living room. As she looked at her, she felt very ufortable. She couldn''t believe
that such a kind olddy could be so evil.
"Hey, didn''t you two go out for dinner? Why are you guys back so soon?"
Madam Simons asked them with a smile, not knowing what would happen next.
"Where''s Dad?"
Sebastian asked coldly. Madam Simons was stunned at his attitude and replied, " He''s in the study
room. What happened?"
Instead of answering his mother, he went straight to the study room and opened the door with a
bang. "Come out. I have something to ask you."
Sebastian rarely talked to his parents in such a harsh attitude. Except for thest time when he
quarreled with his father. Otherwise, he never argued with them at ordinary times, let alone speak in
such a rude tone.
Titus Simons came out of the office and asked in confusion, "What''s wrong?" Sebastian ignored his
father like how he did to his mother. He then walked up to his sister and said, "Tiffany,e with
me."
Tiffany Simons was confused as well. She didn''t know what her brother was nning to do, so she
followed him upstairs. Sebastian took her to her study room and locked her door from the outside.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Tiffany knocked on the door in panic. "Brother, what are you doing? Why are
you locking me up?"
"Just stay here for a while. I''ll let you out when I''m done talking to them!"
Sebastian went downstairs in heavy steps. On the sofa downstairs, Titus and his wife were already
sitting there, waiting for him. They could hear what was going on upstairs. Madam Simons asked
first, "Why did you lock your sister up?"

Yasmine was very well aware of the situation, so she stood aside while silently feeling the sorrow in
her heart.
"Because I don''t want her to know how despicable her parents can be. I know she is so proud of her
parents."
"How dare you! Who are you talking to?"
Titus stood up with a terrible look on his face.
"I''m talking to both of you!"
Sebastian roared, and the anger in his eyes began to burn.
"What happened? Why are you shouting at us like this?" Madam Simons asked angrily. She looked
over to her daughter- in-w, hoping that she could answer their doubts, but Yasmine did not say
anything at all.
It was not that she refused to say anything, but what could she say at this point?
"What did the both of you do to Abigail Tanner''s parents? Tell me, three years ago, did the both of
you destroy my rtionship with Abigail?"
Sebastian tried to suppress the anger in his heart while he questioned them.
At that instant, Old Master Simons and Madam Simons'' faces turned pale. This instant change on
their faces had immediately proven the truth. Although it was cruel, it was still the truth.
"I don''t know what you''re talking about."
Titus denied.
"Do you still want to pretend even at this point? Are you still trying to treat me like a fool? Do you
really think you can cover the truth forever? Do you really think that no one knew that you killed
people?"
Sebastian''s anger burst out at that instant. As soon as he finished his words, he shoved all the tea
cups next to the sofa onto the ground.
Yasmine was shocked. She had never seen Sebastian like this before. His anger was like a bomb,
exploding with a loud bang, which was beyond everyone''s expectations.
Titus Simons and M Zordon were equally shocked, maybe because they had never expected that
their son would find out the truth. They knew deep down that Sebastian would eventually find out,
but they had never expected that this day woulde so soon.
"Talk to me! Why are you not saying anything? Deny it! Why are you not denying it?"
Sebastian roared like a madman. Was there anything more disappointing than the fact that people
who had destroyed his life and hope were his parents?
"I did it all by myself. This has nothing to do with your mother."
At this point, Titus knew that he couldn''t hide it anymore, so he admitted frankly.
"This has nothing to do with your father. I''m the one who killed Pearl Haymitch and Derek Tanner."
M med everything on herself. In fact, neither of them lied, it was just that none of them knew
what the other party had done.
"One of you nned a conspiracy to break up the rtionship between me and Abigail Tanner, and
the other one murdered her parents. Are the both of you still the parents that I know? No! You are
not, both of you are demons!"
"Nonsense, Abigail Tanner left you because of money. Your father had never nned any
conspiracy."
Madam Simons was eager to defend her husband.
"Your mother didn''t kill anyone. She has never seen Pearl Haymitch at all!"
Old Master Simons was also eager to protect his wife. "No? So are you telling that the both of you
didn''t even know about the things that the other party had done behind your back?"
Sebastian sneered in despair. Through theyers of clothes, no one could tell that the wound in his
heart was torn open once again, and the blood was already dripping down.
M and Titus looked at each other and suddenly realized that the other party might had done
something behind their backs and those things were hidden from each other ever since.
"Well, it seems that your love for each other is just superficial." Sebastian sneered again. "Since
none of you knew about each other''s doings, then I''ll tell the truth on behalf of the two of you!"
He walked to his father and asked angrily, "Did you hire a man who was suffering from a terminal
illness, give him one million dors so that he would bump into Derek Tanner''s truck? Did you
deliberately create a traffic ident and then use the evidence against Abigail, so that she would
leave me? Did you find someone to lure Pearl Haymitch into gambling, and lent money to her
through a loan shark after she had lost all of her money? Not only that, did you ask someone to go
to her house and destroy everything when she couldn''t pay back the money that she had borrowed?
Did you ask those people to tell Abigail that if she refuses to leave me, then they would do
something even more terrible than just destroying their house?"
M''s eyes were full of surprise. She honestly hadn''t known about these things. She thought that
Abigail had left Sebastian because of the money that Titus had given her. She had never thought
that Titus had ever set up such a trap.
"And you, you hated the fact that Pearl Haymitch once had a romantic rtionship with your
husband, so you hired someone to tamper with their car to create the illusion that Derek Tanner and
Pearl Haymitch''s death was just an ident and not murder?"
Titus nced at his wife in shock. "M, you..."
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely cold and the old couple were looking at each other in
disbelief. Yasmine could not help but to think of the words that Lily Adams had said. No matter how
much a couple had loved each other, there would still be secrets that they would never know of.
"It seems like what I have just said were all true!"
Sebastian was utterly disappointed in his parents. He suddenly walked to the phone and wanted to
call the police. Yasmine rushed over and asked, "What are you doing?"
“One who murders pays the forfeit with his life!"
"Are you crazy? They are your parents!"
"If my parents are parents, what about other people''s parents''?"
"You can''t send them to jail with your own hands. You have to figure out the whole thing first. What
you are saying now is only Abigail Tanner''s onesided words. Have you heard Dad''s and Mom''s side
of the story? I believe that they must have their own reasons!"
"That''s enough. If they didn''t even try to deny, so what more is there left to say? Killing is killing.
There are no reasons that can justify it!"
"Why not? Just because we don''t say it, it doesn''t mean that we don''t have our own reasons for
doing so. Your father and I are not cold-blooded people. Everything that we have done was out of
our own helplessness. We had no choice."
"Well, tell me then, what made you so helpless?"
Sebastian threw the phone back onto the table and coldly waited for his parents to give him a
reason that he could ept.
"Why don''t you tell me first?"
M sat back on the sofa without any expression on her face, her tears quietly flowing out of her
eyes.
