The Love that Never Really Dies

“He’s leaving?”

Sabrina who had just been allowed to take some food back at the Hayes found herself losing appetite after listening to Sasha. “Where’s he going?”

“I don’t know. I saw someone introducing a pilot to him, telling him to contact the pilot any time he wants to leave.”

Sabrina was at a loss for words.

She knew that her brother’s condition was about the same as what the woman had described.

After the Hayes had regained power, their financial support had been cut off. Hence, Sabrina was not at all surprised when she heard Sasha saying that Sebastian was contemplating leaving.

“Didn’t you trying explaining to him?”

“I did, but he’s not listening. Besides, I tried your suggestion and sounded him out in the game but he was not walking his talk.”

Sasha cried as she sat on the grass clutching onto her phone.

Sabrina was rendered speechless.

She tried to bite her tongue but to no avail. In the end, she decided to spill the beans and said, “Don’t blame him, our father said some nasty things to him the other day.”

“W-what?”

“My father thought that Sebastian was behind the idea of us stealing from the memorial hall and reprimanded him. He accused Sebastian of being a hypocrite, claiming that my brother was merely feigning disinterest. My father even challenged him to let him know straight away if he was indeed after it, chiding him for being a coward for hiding behind two women.”

Sasha felt an epiphany hit her.

She stopped in her tracks right then and froze on the ground.
