Chapter 101

Author: Edelweiss W.S.
Hera's mind was in turmoil. In the end, however, she made her decision. "You did this to yourself, Sebastian. You have only yourself to blame. But I… I will take care of your parents in your stead."

Just before she could announce her separation from her so-called husband and reveal that they were already divorced, the scene unfolded in an entirely unexpected way.

Baron spotted me and immediately rushed over, not with anger or confusion, but as if I were the main attraction of the night.

He clasped my hand with excitement. "Where were you, Master Sebastian? Or have I grown so old that I failed to notice you in the crowd?"

I gave him a faint smile and said, "I was reviewing a few proposals that some participants wanted me to consider. But I'm here now, aren't I?"

"Whose proposals? Tell me!" Baron thumped his chest with pride. "Your word is law. Just say the name and I'll invest without hesitation! I know only the finest proposals—golden geese, no less—could win your approval!"

    Mila clicked her tongue impatiently. "Tonight was the perfect chance. She just had a fight with Sebastian and was dead set on divorcing him. I thought you'd be able to get her into bed. You useless piece of crap!""Stop nagging. Do you think I'm not frustrated?" Edmund hung his head low, muttering helplessly, "But Bull and his gang really hit hard. You don't understand. If this happens overseas, and if you resist, they'll actually beat you to death..."Mila's irritation deepened at his pathetic, spineless demeanor. "Forget it. We'll talk later." "Later? What later?""By now, Hera's probably already on her way to investigate whether Sebastian is really involved with that older woman. Once she finds out nothing happened, she'll reconcile with him!""No way!" Edmund's eyes widened in disbelief. "If he didn't hook up with some rich old woman, how the hell did he suddenly become so powerful? He's nothing but a useless loser!"Mila's disdain for Edmund ran so deep that she ended up pr

    Hera remained frozen on the sofa long after Ezra left, unable to regain her composure. Yes, compared to Ezra, she was Sebastian's wife. They had been married for five years. So why did she trust him so little?Thinking back, she realized she had never actually seen Sebastian behave intimately with that older woman. All she had seen was them getting into the same car. And when Sebastian had admitted it back then, his reaction hadn't been one of panic. It had been one of helplessness.A sudden thought struck Hera.Could she have accused him wrongly? But then why hadn't he explained himself?Before she could untangle her thoughts, Mila and Edmund appeared at her side."Don't overthink it, Hera. Ezra clearly sided with Sebastian. You saw it yourself. Why would you believe him?""Exactly. Sebastian is just an ordinary firefighter. How could he suddenly be some genius just because he claimed it? He must've latched onto someone else...""I even suspect Sebastian used Ezra and those thr

    "I'm telling you, a cheap woman like you doesn't deserve Sebastian! You deserve the divorce! Shame on you!"Ezra clapped his hands, laughing furiously, then turned his gaze toward Edmund, who shrank back, trembling from head to toe. "You're with a loser. If I hadn't shown up tonight, you and your girlfriends would've been ruined by Bull and his lackeys! You chose this useless coward over Sebastian?"Ezra jabbed first at Hera, then at Edmund. "A bitch and a dog. A match made in heaven! You must've been blind! He can't even compare to one of Sebastian's toes, yet you chose him?"Haha, sure! You're digging your own grave! No one's stopping you! Now get lost! This place doesn't welcome brainless women like you!"After cursing her out, he felt satisfied and turned to leave.Unexpectedly, Hera, her face burning with defiance, called him back. "Stop right there! What right do you have to insult me like that?"She was livid, her voice trembling. "What do you even know? Sebastian only ach

    Ezra, who had always been idle and considered himself superior, suddenly realized that only a man like Sebastian could truly be called a real man.He regarded Sebastian as his idol, constantly thinking that if he ever had the chance, he must personally apologize and make amends. Yet he didn't dare interfere in Sebastian's life, so he waited, hoping for the day Sebastian might return to the bar.Tonight, he finally heard from Howard that Sebastian had arrived. The moment he got the call, he rushed back—only to miss him.Unexpectedly, however, Ezra saw Hera and her two friends booking a private room at the bar. Having investigated Sebastian before, he immediately recognized Hera as Sebastian's wife.Soon, Ezra noticed Bull and his gang tailing Hera's group into the bar. He knew something bad was about to happen. He knew all too well the vile nature of those three hooligans.Nonetheless, Ezra held back until the last moment, determined to let Hera fully see Edmund's true colors. He w

    Well, what else could Bull do? His boss was already here.Bull sighed. "Okay, fine. Next time, don't throw punches at us, got it? Just give us a heads-up, and we'll let you take what we got."He shot a lingering look at Hera. "She's all yours. Come on, boys."Bull and his lackeys left.The room was a wreck. Izzy glanced at Edmund lying on the floor, then turned to Hera.Mila tugged at the corner of Hera's sleeve. "Are we screwed for good, Hera? This guy seems even more powerful than those three. How are we gonna save ourselves?!"Mila's whining grated on Hera. She met Izzy's eyes and spoke loudly, "So… Izzy, right? You don't seem as uncivilized as those three from before. Maybe you'll listen to reason?"I'm the CEO of Edge Inc. I'm willing to pay you to let us go. I would even consider us friends. If you need a business partner, Edge Inc. would gladly fill that role."Izzy sneered, "Don't call me that. The nickname those hoodlums used on me. You're Hera Bishop, right?"Serious

    Hera was running out of options. As Bull closed in, she backed away with her terrified best friend until they were trapped in the corner of the room."Edmund! Holy shit, are you even a man?!" Mila shrieked. "I thought you were in love with Hera! The woman you supposedly care about is being harassed right in front of you, and you're doing nothing?!"Edmund trembled at the sound of his name. That was all.By now, even Mila had given up on him completely. Who knew a man could be this much of a coward? There was only Bull in the room! He could have fought back!"You really should give up on that pansy, sugar. Rather than wasting energy begging him to rescue you, you should be begging me to be gentler!" Bull cackled.He could no longer contain himself. He advanced."Don't come any closer!" Hera screamed.Tears streamed down her cheeks. "My husband just left! If he finds out what you're doing… h-he'll mess you up!"She had instinctively. or perhaps accidentally, used Sebastian as her
