It was truly embarrassing for a lady from the Jadesons to cause such a scene in public.

In the meantime, Sebastian was at the morgue.

After he heard about the ongoing chaos outside, he cast a glance at the man who was sitting

decadently in front of the corpse.

“Devin, your mom’s here.”

However, there was no response from Devin.

Devin had been sitting in the same position for hours, looking as if he had detached himself from

everything happening around him. He kept staring at the corpse in front of him, with his face devoid of

expression.

Sebastian was speechless as he furrowed his brows.

In the end, he turned to exit the place, planning to settle the matter himself.

“So, are all our debts cleared now?”

Just then, a coarse voice echoed from the morgue. Sebastian, who had reached the door, froze on the

spot.

Did Devin say that?

Sebastian shifted his gaze back to Devin, feeling slightly displeased.

“Devin, you’re not thinking straight right now. You should get some rest.”

“No, I’m more conscious than ever.” Devin finally lifted his head as he cast his bloodshot eyes at

Sebastian.

“You never intend to spare his life all this while, did you? After all, your Dad died in his hands, and your

Mom’s death was also indirectly related to me. So all I want to know now is with his death, do we still

owe your family?”

His voice trembled as he spoke, and his eyes began to water.

Sebastian’s heart skipped a beat as alarm bells started ringing in his head.

“I never said that you owed me anything. What your Dad did has nothing to do with you.” He finally

made a clear stand on the matter.

It’s true that I did want to take my revenge. But Devin had never been on my list.

Finally getting an answer, Devin lowered his head and let out a smile as his eyes brimmed with tears.

So that means the debt’s clear now. That’s good to know.

The next moment, he finally stood up. He started pushing out the corpse from the morgue, right in front

of Sebastian.

“Devin, what are you doing?”

“Nothing. I want to take him to see Mom. I know she won’t leave until she sees him,” Devin responded

faintly.

Sebastian clenched his fist upon hearing that.

He was somehow startled by Devin’s gesture. He could not believe the latter could still be so

considerate after experiencing such a blow in his life.

Nevertheless, he knew there was nothing he could do to stop Devin.

Ever since they knew each other, Devin had always treated him like his own brother.

In the end, Sebastian chose to stand out of Devin’s way, watching him leave with the corpse.

Around ten minutes later, Jasmine dashed in with the Woodses. She froze on the spot upon seeing

Devin pushing the corpse.

Everyone else was also dumbfounded by the sight.

“Devin…”

“Mom, stop kicking up a fuss. Let’s bring Dad back home.”

Devin seemed to have used up all his strength as he persuaded Jasmine with an exhausted look.

Yet, no one understood the real meaning behind his words. Stop kicking up a fuss. Let’s go home and

stay away from this family. We’ve paid all our debt. Let’s live a peaceful life from now on.

That was the actual thought in Devin’s mind while he said that.

Nonetheless, Jasmine got filled with utter disappointment and rage upon hearing his words.

“What did you say? I dare you to repeat it again!”

“Mom!”

“Devin, do you know why your dad did what he did back then? Your dad was the one who got

abandoned by the Jadesons. When the enemies reached the country during wartime, your grandpa

took your uncle first and escaped. He always left all the best things for your uncle. Your dad was not

the bad guy.”

Jasmine bawled her eyes out as she stared at Devin. It was the first time Devin saw his mother so

desperate and heartbroken.

He was speechless as he had never heard about those things.

However, deep down in his heart, he had always known that he was not the favored one as well.

As a matter of fact, he could not even get half of the love shown for his nephews and niece.

With that, Devin slowly clenched his hands into fists.

“When your uncle sent the letter, your dad was delighted. But when he enthusiastically brought the

letter to your Grandpa to plead for his brother, your Grandpa said he had already forgiven the latter. He

said as long as Shin brought that woman home and apologized, he would still welcome Shin home.”

By that point, Jasmine was laughing as she talked.

She was devastated in her heart, but she felt that the whole situation was so preposterous that she

could not stop herself from laughing.

That’s the reality of this world. They’re both from the same parents, but why were they getting treated

so differently? No one would be able to stand in Stephen’s shoes. Thus, in the end, he chose the

extreme path.

At that moment, Devin was dumbstruck.

He never expected his cowardly father to have such a secret.
