Bella knew Sebastian had made a trip to the Blake family estate. He had even brought a small gift, claiming it was from her.
The moment he got back, she rushed over to find out what had happened.
“What? They secretly sent Noah abroad?”
The old couple didn’t need to report their actions to Sebastian, of course.
After all, they were the heads of the family.
Bella’s choice of the word “secretly” was clearly meant to stir up trouble.
But Sebastian, blinded by his own anger, didn’t notice. Her words only fueled his rage.
“They must think I’m an unfit father. They sent him abroad behind my back. They call it ‘heir training,’ but I know it’s because they’re unhappy with me.”
There was another thought Sebastian kept to himself.
His parents were in such a hurry to groom a new heir, which clearly meant they weren’t satisfied with the current one—him.
He hadn’t even fully taken over the Blake Group yet, and they were already scheming to groom his son as a replacement. Were they planning to push the boy into power at the right moment and cast him aside?
Considering how many resources they were pouring into Noah’s education, the boy would likely be ready to take the reins by the time he was sixteen.
That meant Sebastian had, at most, a decade. If he couldn’t seize complete control of the company from his parents by then, his own son would be coming back to challenge him for power.
If his parents were still alive, they would surely support Noah’s ascension, not the disobedient heir he had become.
Seeing the dark expression on Sebastian’s face, Bella quickly tried to comfort him. “I know this is all because of our wedding.
I never thought they would be so cruel as to just send him off to another country like that.
Noah’s so young, and he’s always been frail. He needs someone familiar around to look after him.
