“What?”
In the next moment, his eyes filled with coldness.
“That woman over there! She’s saying that Mommy is poor and can’t afford nice clothes. That woman is
wearing a fake dress of the brand that you gifted Mommy last time. Now, she’s humiliating Mommy,”
Matteo explained everything clearly.
Their father gifted their mother that design?
Everyone was shocked after hearing that.
All the blood drained from Shanae’s face, and she could not move an inch.
At that moment, Sebastian arrived in front of Sasha with the kids.
“Darling.”
“I told you not to attend these parties. They’re not even on the same level as us. Why did you come
here? Are you trying to make things difficult for yourself?”
Sebastian ignored everyone else and put the kids down beside Sasha before he started berating her.
Sasha was embarrassed after that.
Everyone was staring at Sebastian, including Richard, who was sitting beside Jonathan.
Not on the same level? What does he mean? Is he trying to say that they have higher status than
everyone else here? How arrogant!
Having heard that, Richard was infuriated.
“N-No. Grandpa wanted to hold a party for us. I can’t just reject their efforts…” Sasha stammered as she
explained.
Hearing that, Sebastian mocked, “Just reject him. He didn’t even manage to filter the guests. Why did he
bring you here? To put up a show?”
Sasha did not know what to say.
Damn! How could he utter such words!
“Mr. Sebastian, what do you mean by filtering the guests? Are you insulting us?” Richard questioned.
He could not sit still anymore.
Sebastian then answered nonchalantly, “Looks like you’re not that dumb after all!”
Again, everyone was stupefied.
Jonathan had protected Sebastian very well. Since Sebastian had only returned to the Jadesons
recently, none of the outsiders had seen him yet. Jonathan also managed to suppress all the major news
about what happened in the family previously.
Therefore, to the outsiders, Sebastian was just Shin and a countryside woman’s son. How could he be
an excellent man when his mother came from the countryside?
Hence, everyone had looked down on him, until now.
Richard was enraged. “Jonathan Jadeson, so this is your precious grandson! Is this how he treats his
guests?”
He hammered the floor with his cane in anger.
Jonathan was furious and anxious too.
Since everyone was infuriated by Sebastian’s words, Jonathan chided, “Sebastian, what are you saying?
How could you be so rude to the relatives and close friends of our family!”
“Rude?” Sebastian snorted and added, “I’m being respectful enough. If it was in the past, I would’ve
thrown him out of here!”
He was still speaking recklessly.
His voice was so low and cold that it made shivers run down everyone’s spines.
Throw him out? Is he that presumptuous and arrogant?
Finally, several guests could not stand it anymore and stood up to help Richard.
At that moment, Devin stood up abruptly.
“What are you trying to do? You think he won’t do it? Let me tell you. He can turn you into ashes with a
snap of his fingers!”
Everyone came to a halt when they heard that.
Ashes? Is he really that capable?
They could not believe that. However, after Devin warned them, they did not dare to move an inch. All of
them turned to stare at him, including Shanae.
“Ashes? Devin, you’re exaggerating.”
Devin sneered before he questioned, “Exaggerating? Would you believe me if I told you that the person
who made your dress has disappeared now, all because of what you just did?”
Shanae fell silent.
“Also, let me remind you. If you don’t apologize to Sasha right away, you’ll have to face the dire
consequences. You’ll lose your reputation and probably will be sent to jail too,” Devin continued.
He knew Sebastian very well.
Shanae was stunned when she heard that.
After some time, she glanced at all the guests before she asked, “On what grounds?”
“Just because he’s the business mogul of Astoria. He’s rich, and sending every one of your family into
your graves is child’s play. Is that enough?”
In a mocking tone, Devin stated all the harsh truths to Shanae.
