Sabrina hadn't a clue as to who called Sebastian. She looked up at her husband as he continued to speak to whoever was on the other side of the line.
"Okay, I'll wait for you here," he said.
After he ended the call, she asked, "Who was it?"
Sebastian sneered. "Axel."
Axel? For a split moment, Sabrina couldn't remember who that was. Then, she blurted out. "Axel, is that someone from the Poole Family? What's his relationship with Alex?”
"Axel is Alex's second uncle, also the father of Ms. Emma Poole who joined hands with almost every wealthy lady in South City to organize that stage to humiliate you a few months ago."
Sabrina thought for a few seconds, before responding i n awe, "So this Axel is coming to interrogate me as well?"
Sebastian shook his head. "Well, no. He is kind of coming at me."
He paused for a moment then continued to explain. " Axel had provided Star Island with one third of the weapons under his military power, and now all those weapons are taken away by me with ease. How can he remain calm under these circumstances?"
"Then he probably wants to kill you," she chuckled.
He lifted an eyebrow. "If only he has the power to do s o, that is."
"Hello, Uncle Axel," Sebastian greeted him in an emotionless tone, before introducing him to Sabrina." Sabrina, come greet Uncle Axel."
"Hello, Uncle Axel," Sabrina greeted politely.
Axel didn't bother looking at Sabrina and barked hatefully at Sebastian. "So you still know that I'm your Uncle Axel!" 1
No longer seeing the need to tip-toe around the man, Sebastian retorted mercilessly, "If Uncle Axel does not like to be addressed like that, I can stop calling you that in the future. Mr. Poole, it's been a while."
"For Alex, I am his uncle, so you tell me if I count as yours as well!" he roared furiously.
