“What? W-Why me then? After all, there are plenty of people in the Jadeson family for him to pick from,

including Devin’s mother and Janice.” Sasha was shocked to hear Sebastian’s words.

Unexpectedly, Sebastian sneered as soon as Sasha mentioned those names. “Don’t you know what

kind of person Jasmine is? As for Janice, she’s only an extended family member and has no right to be

involved in the Jadesons’ management. Besides, her ability is ordinary at best.”

While he was speaking, the disdain on Sebastian’s face intensified, perhaps because he recalled the

incident at the feast back then.

Thanks to that explanation, Sasha had a better understanding of that matter.

Still, she could not comprehend it in its fullness.

Of course, she would grasp the entire matter if she knew Jonathan saw Sebastian and herself as his

final hope to revive the Jadeson family.

That was especially true for Sebastian, as he was the foremost person Jonathan wanted to cultivate.

Jonathan was well aware of the decline of the Jadesons after his retirement. However, it seemed like

letting Charles hold a central role in the military or promoting Devin did not improve anything

whatsoever.

Even though Charles looked like he had authority in the military because of his family background, the

people who submitted to him were meager in truth.

That was evident during the besiegement of Sebastian, where no one in the military spoke out for him

even when many people had perished. Some even added insult to the injury at the White House at that

time.

Hence, not only did he fail to improve the Jadesons’ situation, but he also caused their family to

crumble.

As for Devin, he had the capability to help them, but he was too benign and not ruthless enough.

Moreover, he was no match for the cunning elders from the White House in terms of scheming.

If the Jadesons were under his leadership, it would be safe to say that they would never have the

chance to return to their prime.

In other words, the Jadesons should be content to maintain their current status under such

circumstances.

After pondering for a moment, Sebastian decided not to stop Sasha from taking over Oceanic Estate.

The first reason was that Jonathan would not be able to do anything harmful toward Sasha since he

would return very soon and stay by her side.

There was another reason for his decision.

“By the way, what’s wrong with Sabrina again?”

“W-What?” Sasha could not help but stop in her tracks at that drastic change of topic.

“U-Um, after knowing that Shanae is Devin’s fiancée, she felt dejected and wanted to hand her bar

over to me.”

“Haha…” That chilling cackle from Sebastian sent shivers down her spine.

With that, Sasha immediately figured out what she needed to do. I can’t take over the bar. Perhaps I’ll

land myself in trouble because of that.

Following that conversation, Sasha walked out of the military base.

She intended to give Sebastian a proper farewell, but he turned to leave after glancing at his watch.

How insensitive! Feeling a little upset with his actions, Sasha strode toward him and grabbed his arm.

“Sebby…” she murmured in a barely audible voice. A few seconds later, she stood on her tiptoes and

kissed Sebastian’s lips at the gate that represented the strength and dominance of the country.

At that moment, it felt as if time had stopped while the air around them had frozen.

No one would have imagined that Sasha was still the person who took the initiative to express her love

even when their story was continuing in a different direction after Sebastian had turned into another

person.

When Sasha was eighteen back then, she was the person who took the first step by agreeing to marry

him.

Eight years later, she was still the one who made the first move by coming to him and kissing him.

Sure enough, Sebastian’s lean and towering body froze in shock.

His mind went blank as he widened his eyes while feeling the softness of Sasha’s lips. Why does this

feel so familiar? Also, why did she call me Sebby?

Fragments of memories that appeared in his mind occasionally during that period emerged all at once,

thanks to Sasha’s kiss.

“Do you like oranges, Sebby? I have some right here for you.”

“T-That dog is chasing me, Sebby. Help…”

“I-I’m sorry, Sebby. It’s all my fault…”

“I’ll always protect you, Sebby.”

“I’m willing to be your wife for the rest of my life, Sebastian. You’ll always be the only person I love no

matter what.”

As she finally let go of Sebastian, the blushing Sasha did not dare to look at him as if she had done

something embarrassing and fled the scene.

Therefore, she did not notice that Sebastian’s fingers were quivering while tears began to well up in his

eyes.
