Sebastian swallowed and then looked up at Adrian like he’s got the most sensible response. “What if my mom was just bluffing that day that she visited Ms. Greene? What if she just said that to make herself feel superior since she won the man?” He shrugged his shoulders actually believing the crap coming out of his own mouth, “You know, girls thing.” Even though the situation was unlikely, Adrian couldn't hold back the laughter. For someone that grew up with so much wealth and probably the best of everything including education, he sounded like a fool. Sebastian frowned, turning his face to the front and starting the car. By the time Adrian stopped laughing, he was already driving down the road. “You know the funniest part?” Adrian asked, wiping the tears slipping down the corner of his eyes,”I actually understand how desperate you feel to let something as stupid as that come out of your mouth.” Sebastian didn't say anything, but the doubts of his own words were

As much as everyone was still traumatised, they still boarded a private jet back home which was heavily supervised and tested. When they touched down at the New York Airport, everyone started to go their separate ways. Richard’s entourage was already waiting for him. Derek came to pick Vera up. “Arabella, I think you should come and stay with me for now. You're not fit to stay on your own.” Vera suggested, her face filled with more worry than grief. But Arabella shook her head, “Don’t worry, Vera. I’m fine.” Adrian walked forward and wrapped an arm around her, “Don't worry, I will take care of her.” Derek and Vera left. Chloe followed them. Richard pulled Arabella into one final hug before he walked towards his car. “Adrian, I will call you when I get home.” He said to Adrian. “Okay sir.” Adrian replied. As he opened the car door, he looked back at Sebastian who had been isolating himself since the trip. “Hey, are you coming with me?” “No.” He replied simply. Richard did

By noon the next day, Gavin walked into the CEO’s office with the cleaned USB drive. Adrian was sitting on his chair, his desk was still in their shared office. Adrian took the flash drive and gestured him to leave but Gavin didn't go immediately. “What now?” Adrian finally looked up from the laptop after plugging the drive in. “Sir, what are you going to do about the suspension? Do you want to appeal to them or maybe speak with someone…” Adrian sighed, “Don't worry. It's just a year. I can manage.” “Manage?” Gavin snapped, worry creasing his brows, “How are you going to manage? A year is longer and you are the face of Sterling Law. It could affect the company’s overall functioning.”Adrian scoffed dryly, “Don't delude yourself, Gavin. The company is functioning just fine with Arabella’s swift intervention.” “I know you're worried about me, but I think I deserve this for how much of an asshole I was in the past.” Adrian said, forcing a smile that didn't reach his eyes, “Normall

THREE DAYS LATERA doctor stood over Adrian’s body in the VIP room of Mount Sinai Hospital, checking through his vitals. He had small cut marks all over his face from the shattered glass. His head was wrapped with bandages. Aside from that, everything else seemed fine. But he wasn't waking up. The surgery had lasted for hours.When the lead surgeon finally stepped out of the operating room, he announced that the surgery was a success. However, Adrian had suffered significant head trauma in the accident. His vital signs are stable, but he has not regained consciousness.“So? Do you know when he can wake up now?” Arabella asked curiously, her eyes red from worry. The doctor sighed, his expression already giving the answer they feared. "He's in a coma, Miss. We can’t just tell when he will wake up. For now, all we can do is monitor him and wait.”Arabella pressed her face into Ivan’s chest as he consoled her. Catherine’s fingers trembled where she sat. Her lips shook as she mumbl

“What do you mean? What's going on? Didn't Mrs. Gallagher sent you?” Serena questioned, watching helplessly as the men cuff her guards and dragged them out. Sebastian slowly walked towards her, “Weren't you listening just now?” Serena raised a brow even more confused. “I said I love my mom. I can't let her live a life of crime.” He explained, “That's why I have decided to stop her now before it's too late.” Serena’s legs gave out on her and she quickly grabbed the chair for support. Sebastian’s men grabbed her before she could think of causing harm, twisting her hand back. “Wait outside.” He instructed and the man dragged Serena with him out. When Sebastian turned to face Arabella again, the mother and son instinctively moved back even though they were already at the wall. Sebastian sighed, squatting before her, “Come in sis. I came to save you.” Arabella slowly relaxed seeing the familiar cheerful boy she had known. “Y—you’re sure you’re not with her?” Arabella said, gestur
