Let Me Stay The Night

Nathaniel’s gaze was usually icy. Only when he looked at Christina did it become gentle. “Don’t get angry. Just leave it to Sebastian.”

Upon hearing Nathaniel’s words, Sebastian walked past Christina and said thoughtfully. “Mr. and Mrs. Hadley, please stand further away in case the situation gets out of hand.”

Christina nodded. “Thank you, Mr. Taggart.”

Sebastian returned her a faint smile. “You’re too courteous, Mrs. Hadley. This is what I’m best at.”

Nathaniel said, “It’s cold outside. Let’s wait in the car.”

Christina didn’t reply. She turned on her heels and returned to the car with Nathaniel.

The smile on Sebastian’s face faded as he led a group of men to the entrance of the mansion. “May I ask for you and your men to step back and leave the rest to me?” he asked Jasper.

Jasper retreated with his subordinates.

“Tear down this mansion!” At Sebastian’s order, the bodyguards standing behind him immediately raised their baseball bats and began smashing the windows.

Loud crashes echoed across the dark sky above the mansion. The neighbors were jolted awake by the noise and hurried out to investigate the source, When they caught the spectacle in front of Nigel’s house, they tactfully returned to their house and peeked through the windows.

They had no intention of calling the police upon witnessing something happening over at Nigel’s place. They merely looked on.

The bodyguards were efficient. The initially opulent mansion had turned into a scene from an apocalypse movie in a few short minutes.
