Chapter 259
Lance had been most concerned in the past that his second brother would become enamored with
Scarlett.
After several attempts, he got the answer that he did not love her, so he stopped caring about it
No one would have imagined that, after Scarlett’s passing his second brother would have tried to take
his own life.
Having just been rescued from the gates of hell, he pulled out the syringe and returned home,
desperate to drink, not caring
for his life
Sebastian didn’t catch a word of what he said. His fingers, sharply defined, gestured at him. “Hand it
over.”
Lance pressed down on the bottle and refused to let go. “If you keep on drinking like this, you’ll be
risking your life. You gotta stop drinking now”
Sebastian suddenly sneered, “I don’t really have the desire to live.”
Lance’s expression froze as the image of his second brother almost being tortured by Wanda filled his
mind, causing him to sigh in despair.
Had it not been for the Jackman family, his second brother would have departed this world long ago.
He released the hand gripping the wine bottle and passed it to Sebastian. “Cut back on the drinking.”
After pouring the wine, Sebastian held the wine glass and gazed at the red liquid in the glass. He
queried Lance, “Why is it so
bitter?”
Lance cast a glance at him and uttered in a low tone, “Second Brother, it’s your own bitterness that
makes the wine taste
bitter.”
Sebastian curved his thin lips and a smile as cold as snow spread across his face. “So, this is how it
is…”
When Lance saw the man who had been cold and indifferent transformed by a woman, his heart was
filled with apprehension
“Second brother, the deceased cannot be brought back to life. Let it go.”
Sebastian, not replying, kept drinking the red wine.
As Lance was still trying to persuade him again, Leo walked in from outside.
“Mr. Jackman, I have uncovered the truth. Miss Sales…”
Leo was taken aback when he saw Lance, and he abruptly ceased speaking.
Nevertheless, Sebastian paid no heed and gestured for him to go on.
Only after that did Leo put a stack of information on the counter.
“Mr. Jackman, you were correct. It was Travis who paid off the personnel at the crematorium and
covertly moved Miss Sales away”
“The impetus for his action was Miss Sales sister Rebecca’s last words, that she wanted to bequeath
her heart to Miss Sales. This prompted Travis to hasten to the crematorium and take Miss Sales away.
“I also discovered that George was the one who carried out the heart transplant procedure for Miss
Sales…”
After providing some basic information, Leo recounted the details of the situation.
Upon hearing this, Lance was a bit perplexed. ‘So, Scarlett is still alive?”
Leo nodded without hesitation. “Not only did she not perish, but she also came back to the nation as
her own sister.” Lance touched his forehead with one hand. It turned out that his brother had already
known that Scarlett was still alive, yet he hadn’t told him
Sebastian had anticipated this outcome, yet he hadn’t anticipated that George would be the one to
rescue Scarlett.
Seeing that he was confused, Leo quickly explained again, “Dr. George and the Weber family have
been close friends for many years.”
Sebastian comprehended and gave a slight nod. He then inquired nonchalantly. “Why did they get
married?”
Leo responded respectfully, “Travis wed Miss Sales for Rebecca’s heart. As to why Miss Sales
consented to marry Travis, it
wal.” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Leo paused briefly, yet he still clenched his jaw and declared, ‘George told Miss Sales that Dev had
taken his own life, but she refused to accept it. She wanted to go back to the country to search for Dev,
but Travis wouldn’t let her go. Miss Sales only consented to marry him if so that she could come back
and find Dev…”
Sebastian’s fingers halted as he perused the documents, his handsome face draining of color.
In order to hasten her return to see Liam, she had har no qualms about marrying someone else.
She really loved Liam….
In her eyes, he was nothing.
