Chapter 288
The onlookers continued to gossip.
"Looks like this guy's done for. Honestly, he's brought this on himself," someone muttered.
"Absolutely. he should've felt honored if Mr. Jake fancied her. Plus, Mr. Jake hadn't got his way. Even if he did, he shouldn't have retaliated," another agreed.
Most nodded in agreement, though a few admired Sebastian's spirit despite thinking he was acting too reckless.
"You bastard! I thought you'd hide like a coward forever!" Jake yelled, his rage overflowing. His swollen, toothless face twisted into a hideous mask from the beating.
Sebastian smirked. "You think you can make me act like a coward? You're not worth me doing so." His calm retort was cutting.
Jake was fuming. "Bastard! You fucked up! I swear to god I'll tear you apart!"
"Looks like I didn't hit you hard enough last time. Does your face not hurt now?" Sebastian taunted.
"Bastard!" Jake shouted, trembling in fury.
"You really don't know who you're messing with, huh? Phaedra Island is our territory. How dare you act so recklessly? " Turner Sanders sneered arrogantly.
Maverick crossed his arms, exuding arrogance and disdain.
He said, "I'll give you a chance. Get on your knees and grovel to Jake. Say 'Mr. Sanders, I'm sorry' ten times, and let him slap you a few dozen times. Then we'll call it even."
"What if I don't?" Sebastian asked.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
"I'd suggest you do, as it's your only chance to live," Maverick replied smugly.
At that moment, Yvette arrived, grinning as she greeted the Sanders' before turning to Sebastian. "Weren't you full of yourself earlier? With the Sanders here now, let's see how tough you can act."
"Yvette, you think having them back you up means you can do whatever you want?" Sebastian asked with a chuckle.
"Yes, if you want to say so. If you know what's good for you, kneel and apologize now. Otherwise, today's your last day on earth," Yvette threatened.
She was emboldened by the Sanders' presence and approached Sebastian to challenge him.
Sebastian's smile turned mischievous. Out of everyone's surprise, he grabbed Yvette and pulled her close.
"Ahh... Let go of me!" Yvette was shocked. She tried hard to struggle, but it was futile. In front of Sebastian, she was powerless.
"You're asking for it! Let go of Ms. Osborne now!" Maverick shouted, his eyes blazing with fury.
He'd known Yvette for a while now. And seeing how stunning she had become, he planned to woo her after dealing with Sebastian. Seeing her in Sebastian's arms drove him mad.
Sebastian held Yvette tight and said, "This woman's mine. Marcus lost her to me in a bet. In fact, I plan to fuck her later."
Maverick widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Save me, Mr. Maverick," Yvette pleaded as she was unable to break free from Sebastian's grip. She looked pitifully at Maverick.
"I will, Ms. Osborne. Don't worry!" Maverick promised.
He glared at Sebastian. "I don't care if what you say is true. Either you let her go right now, or I'll make sure there's nothing left of you to bury!"
