"Sebastian, what's the matter?" asked Zayn.
Sebastian did not answer but instead, he asked, "Zayn, you're here?"
"Sebastian, this office is so huge and yet, the smoke is so thick. How many cigarettes have you had exactly? Sabrina had always told me that if I ever see you smoking so badly in the office, I have to stop you. You can't smoke so heavily. It's not good for your lungs!" Zayn took a big step forward and snatched away the cigarette in Sebastian’s hand.
Sebastian sighed. "How close are you to Sabrina?”
Zayn was stunned. Suddenly, he stood up and glared a t Sebastian audaciously with a cold and stern gaze." Ford! Don't think that I will be afraid of you just because you're the King of South City, you're decisive and can kill without even batting an eyelid! I have f* eking pulled through from being on the verge of dying, so I am not afraid of you! There is nothing going on between Sabrina and me! We're very innocent! If you dare to blame Sabrina just because she and I, as well a s Aino, had lived together for six years, then I will fight you to death!”
Sebastian was absolutely unfazed after being scolded by Zayn. He was not pissed off and he did not lash out. He simply explained calmly. "I'm asking you, the brother and sister relationship you have with Sabrina,
what kind of relationship is that? Will you give up your life for each other?"
"What?" Zayn asked.
"To what extent is the closeness for the kind of familial relationship you have between you and Sabrina?"
Only then did Zayn understand that he seemed to have misunderstood Sebastian. "Sebastian, what are you asking this for?"
Without waiting for Sebastian to reply, Zayn said," Well, you don't have siblings, so you also don’t understand this kind of relationship. I'll explain it to you in this way. I treat Sabrina as if she is my biological younger sister. The kind where blood is thicker than water. I look like I’m afraid of you, right? However, if you dare to bully Sabrina, then I will fight you to death! If you were to point a gun at me and her, I will choose death, and I will leave the chance to live t o her. It's this kind of brother and sister relationship where blood is thicker than water."
He did not dare to think about it. If he did not make a move, what would his younger brother, who was as vicious as himself, do on the other end? Without knowing when it started, Sebastian had become less and less vicious. He had more of a fatherly side showing on himself. This was particularly so when Sabrina was already six months pregnant. He did not wish to be involved in too many killings.
Seeing that Sebastian went into a deep thought. Zayn called out again. "Sebastian, what exactly happened?"
Just as Zayn finished saying that, the landline on
Sebastian's table rang, but Sebastian did not hear it. Zayn stepped forward and picked up the phone. "Who i s it?"
"Tell Sebastian to answer the phone!" It was a man's voice that was incomparably cold on the other end of the line.
