Chapter 1007 - 1004: Relax, I Won’t Do Anything to You (2)
Only in this way can he stop missing her....
Over there, Sebastian Yansford had gone to the Sovereign Empire.
Because something happened three years ago, Eva’s whereabouts were concealed, and later, the Nightingale Group was merged under Clan Yansford.
The incident happened too suddenly, and at that time it was believed that Lucas Knight had run into trouble, unexpectedly... Later, when they found him, he was severely injured, and something was wrong with his mind; he remembered no one. Thus, for these three years, because of hiding the matter related to Eva Nightingale, Sebastian Yansford has rarely been to the Sovereign Empire.
This time, he came, of course, to find Barrett Scott. However, he was hidden away by the old man, not so easily found.
As soon as he arrived at the Yansford Family, Alice Grant arrived.
"Sebastian." Alice Grant walked forward.
This was the second time in three years that she had seen Sebastian Yansford.
"Sebastian, still no news of Barrett?" Alice Grant said, "I mean nothing else; it’s just that I cannot let go of you even after three years. I’m just taking a look at you before I leave."
"I won’t be as unreasonable as I was before."
Back then, when she met Sebastian Yansford, she was 26 years old. Three years have passed, now she’s exactly 29, vividly an older leftover woman. She now knows she’s aged, with even some traces of years left on her face.
Upon hearing this, Sebastian Yansford turned to look at her.
"Alice, you’ve matured."
Three years, neither long nor short, but enough to change many things.
For instance, Alice Grant has become much more mature than before.
However, Sebastian Yansford felt no affection for her, not knowing why. He advised, "With the Grant Family’s financial resources and influence, you don’t need to stay single like this; just pick anyone casually, and marry to become the envied wealthy lady of the town."
Alice Grant had been single all this time, why endure this?!
"No need to worry about me," Alice Grant said, "I know you came back to find Barrett, but you should understand, the old man Scott won’t let go, not to mention... the relationship between you two..."
"You’re overthinking it." Sebastian Yansford replied, "Barrett and I don’t have that kind of meaning, we’re just good buddies." The elder Scott always had people hide Barrett Scott, and of course, Sebastian Yansford was worried.
He still remembers that night long ago, finding Barrett Scott... He didn’t expect the old man to play those tricks of drugging.
"Right, I should get going, Douglas is dating a new girlfriend lately, so he has me take over some of the company matters." Alice Grant said, "Sebastian, see you next time; I must attend a dinner party."
"Okay."
"I’m leaving." Alice Grant left the Yansford Family, turned and got into the car, then, the driver gracefully took the luxury car to the Qiantang River Hotel.
This gathering consisted of some friends from their circle, along with actresses from the recently wrapped-up drama "Palace Locking City," including Evelyn, Daphne Lewis, and Annabelle.
In particular, it was due to a bet between the president of the White Group and Douglas Grant, which Douglas Grant lost, leading him to host the dinner and treat them to a meal.
During the dinner, Annabelle left early.
When going downstairs, she saw Carla Carr.
She had been avoiding Alexander Kingsley for three years.
Back then, Eva Nightingale transferred some Nightingale Group shares to her name and hid her in Country Z. The pregnancy matter was kept tightly under wraps by her.
And Alexander Kingsley never managed to find her.
Afterwards...
Annabelle and Carla Carr had known each other early, and having been in the country all along, somewhat heard about what happened to Eva Nightingale back then, so she told Carla Carr all about it.
Carla Carr’s heart ached terribly.
