Sebastian was speechless. There was a long silence. Sebastian and Holden had only met twice in total. Holden had fled the first time they met. Later on, Sebastian only saw in without being uncertain or from afar. They did not even have a word. At that moment, Sebastian truly did not know what to say.
"Say...something! Why aren't you saying anything? Say something! You son of a b*tch!” Holden cursed hysterically and angrily. "I know you're a vicious and cruel man. In South City, you're simply a domineering and insistent man. I know you have a bad temper and you can crush me to death easily by stomping your foot. Come on then, come and crush me! Crush me to death!"
Sebastian still did not say anything.
"Say something! You son of a b*tch!” When he cursed that, Holden clearly did not think with his mind that both of them have the same parents.
Sebastian finally spoke faintly in a tone so calm as if h e was reciting poetry late at night. "Go on, I'm listening."
"You're a coward! A chicken! You’ve clearly received the benefits but you're still playing it cool, haven't
He continued. "In a fit of anger, I went abroad to study. I was working while I studied and had not returned to the country for three consecutive years. Later on, I don't know what kind of kindness my mother has, but she asked me how I lived for three years without asking them for money? I told her I have been working. I was working in Lekall City in Yaclary. My mother was unexpectedly very shocked! I still remember the tone of her words now. She was so shocked and she asked if I had met any suspicious person! She asked if I had met with that woman! I was baffled. I didn't know what woman. What is this about me meeting with that woman? I asked my mother, but she did not tell me anything and just asked me to return to Star Island immediately. If I don't fly back within three days, then she will abandon me forever!"
Holden sounded angry. "I could only helplessly fly back! However, what if I had returned? I was just going to receive a scolding from my parents! They scolded me for being an ungrateful wretch. They withheld my passport so that I could never go to that country and city again! I find what they did very strange! Since they didn't like me, then why didn't they let me live on my own out there? Why did they still restrict my freedom? It wasn't until you conquered Star Island that I understood! It turned out that you and she were in that city. It turned out that she had a pretty job as an architect in that city. She used her lucrative salary to pay for your studies abroad! It turned out that I was once so near her, but n o one told me that I was in the same city as my biological mother!"
