Remorse After Breaking Up



Just as Sebastian was about to shatter her scapula, Elena uttered something that froze him in his tracks.

"Say that again?" Sebastian stammered after a long moment.

"I'm carrying your child," Elena repeated firmly.

Sebastian probed her with a surge of spiritual energy and indeed found a tiny life within her belly. It was almost unbelievable to him.

"How can I be sure this is mine?" he questioned.

"I've only been with you. It's not like it could be anyone else's," Elena retorted coldly.

"You're known as the 'Queen Bee,' notorious for your cunning and deceitful nature. How can I trust a word you say?" Sebastian sneered coldly.

"If you don't believe me, go ahead and kill me. After all, the child would just be a bastard!" Elena gritted her teeth defiantly.

Sebastian hesitated, then slowly released his grip. He sensed that Elena wasn't lying,

Elena was indeed known as the Queen Bee for her ruthless cunning. However, she had remained celibate in her 20s, and he had taken her virginity.

What stunned him more was the deep connection he felt when he used his spiritual energy to probe her just now. This revelation blindsided him completely. And what was even more unexpected was that Elena, of all people, was the first woman bearing his child.

He had envisioned having children with Lana, Lillian, Zoey, or Esme, but never in his wildest dreams had he imagined it would be Elena.

Elena had plotted his murder more than once, and he despised her to the core.

However, now she stood before him in this vulnerable state. He could easily end her with a single blow, yet he couldn't bring himself to do it.

Elena was undoubtedly despicable, but the child in her belly was innocent. Moreover, it was his own flesh and blood.

This dilemma left him feeling at a loss-neither killing her nor sparing her seemed right.

Elena seemed to have correctly guessed that Sebastian wouldn't dare to strike. With a triumphant smirk, she said, "Sebastian, I've given you your chance. If you're going to kill me, do it now, or I'll walk away."

Sebastian stayed silent.

"Dad, let's go," Elena said, supporting Merlin as they attempted to leave. Sebastian reached out to stop them. "You can go, but he stays," he declared firmly.

Elena smirked coldly and said, "I can't stop you from killing my dad, but I can end your child."

"How dare you!" Sebastian snarled, seizing her by the throat. But Elena remained unflinching. Her expression was calm, almost as though she was assured that Sebastian wouldn't follow through. True to her confidence, he soon let her go.

"Listen, Merlin," Sebastian said sternly, "I'll let you off this time, but never set foot in Dragotha again."

"Okay, I promise I won't return," Merlin hastily assured him. He was truly shaken by Sebastian's terrifying power.

"Also, hand over the Seraphic Tear Pendant and those two amulets," Sebastian commanded firmly.

Despite Merlin's deep reluctance, he handed over the Seraphic Tear Pendant and the two amulets to save his own life.

"One more thing-contact Magnus immediately and tell him I'm dead," Sebastian added. Merlin immediately understood Sebastian's intention, but at this point, it didn't matter to him anymore. Besides, Magnus was merely a pawn in his game.

"Now get lost!" Sebastian said, dismissing Merlin and Elena. He knew today's events would most likely deter Merlin from causing trouble again.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
