Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 268

Heated discussion immediately erupted across the room at Sabrina's words. Rumors had been circling the South City that Sebastian Ford had personally tracked down a woman from foreign land and brought her back, as though he had an unspeakable grudge against the woman. Judging from what Sabrina had said earlier, every person in the room had instantly reached the conclusion that she was the source of the rumor. So for Sebastian to take her here, is it possible that he wanted to present her as a gift to his friends?

"So keen to announce who you are?" Sebastian whispered into Sabrina's ear with a stone-cold expression.

"Mm-hm.” Sabrina did not bother to explain any further. After all, it was not her place to comment at the current situation she was in, neither would she know what to say. All she knew was that she had to d o everything Sebastian asked of her.

Sebastian glared wordlessly at the woman before him, desperately wanting to strangle her.

Among the guests in this room, four of them were his brothers from different mothers who had stood by his side through his ups and downs. Back when he was isolated by the Ford Family, he was a nobody who had no rights to the family inheritance and was forbidden t o be involved in any business that could be associated

with the Ford Family. It was hardly an exaggeration to say that Sebastian was more worthless than the maids working for the Ford family. Though he might b e Sean Ford's son by blood, he was placed in a situation where he had no option but to starve to death. He couldn't even work as a servant for the Ford Family if he wanted to, because he was still a Ford by name. Those days had been miserable beyond imagination. It wasn't until the day he was exiled to a different country and forbidden to return, when he truly had a taste of life. His mother managed to find a decent job and that was when Sebastian came across one of his best friends, Alex.

In the early stages of Sebastian's plan, his mother Grace Summer was sent into prison by his eldest brother, who saw Sebastian as a threat considering the influence Grace had in the architectural designing industry overseas and decided to act out against her. Grace remained in the prison for years to ensure that her son's plan remained a secret, so that he could succeed in the future. 1

For years, Sebastian had to watch his every step. He had everyone around him believe that he was good-for -nothing, who had to depend solely on the mercy of servants to get fed leftovers in order to survive. In reality, he had slowly infiltrated the entire Ford Group and replaced the upper management with people he trusted.
