The sound of Emma's chilling sneer immediately came through the other side of the line. "Dad! Of course I did everything you told me to!"
"That's my girl!" Axel gritted out.
"Aren't uncle and my cousin trying to cut us out?" Emma deadpanned, her voice cold. "Didn't Sebastian take over most of your weapons? Isn't he all about protecting that skank of a wife he has? We are going t o sink our teeth into them even if it means death! Let them all catch rabies! That woman will be heading back as soon as possible! Soon, we can sit and enjoy all the drama!"
"Well, then, daddy can be assured. That's all for now!" Axel chuckled casually and hung up. After that, Axel left from the side door without announcing himself to his nephew and grandnephew.
Over on the other side, no one noticed when Axel took his leave or that he made such a malicious phone call, Sebastian and the others remained cheerful in their conversations. The past two weeks in Star Island had been a complete success to Sebastian, and that was expected. Starting from the year Sebastian set his eyes on taking over Star Island, Alex had taken part in mapping out the overall strategy with Sebastian; while Ryan worked as the delivery boy between the two. Therefore, no one wished Sebastian success more
than Alex and Ryan did.
After all the excitement and cheerful conversation with the women, Alex finally caught a chance to congratulate Sebastian. "Congratulations, Sebastian."
Sebastian sighed. "There were advantages, but there were also regrets." He paused and then chuckled." Alex, I have a little brother. A twin brother with the same biological father and mother. Perhaps he still doesn't know that his father is Sean, and Sean has no idea that he has another son on Star Island either."
Alex was stunned for a moment, as this was not at all what he would have expected. After a moment of hesitation, he asked, "And where is your little brother?" 1
"He is the fourth son of the Payne Family, and also the one who put up the most fight. He refused to
surrender until the end and escaped alone. Right now, he is missing in action," Sebastian responded regretfully.
Alex looked at him in silence.
"The Lynn Family is one of Sabrina's major enemies. One of our objectives of going to Star Island was to eliminate them, but in the end, Sabrina didn't get what she wanted."
Alex looked over to Sabrina's direction and watched her chatting happily with Jane, Ruth and Ryan. He couldn't help but feel impressed. "Sebastian, I've finally realized how perfect the two of you are together. She might look fragile, but she is very understanding for not losing her temper despite the fact that she missed the opportunity to eliminate such a formidable enemy."
Sebastian, too, was looking at Sabrina and he couldn't be more proud. "And that is why I need to take her home first and reward her."
"Alright! Let's have that party some other day, then," Alex said, and the two headed over to join Sabrina, Jane, Ruth and Ryan.
