Chapter 379

Sebastian replied coolly, “Is this the first time you’ve waited for me? An hour, and you can’t take it?” Updates are released by.net
There wasn’t a trace of warmth in his indifferent tone.
When he was a child, hadn’t he waited years for him?
To be with his mistress and illegitimate children, his father had neglected him and his mother. Back then, he had waited every single day for his father to come home.
He had waited in misery, naively believing that if he was a good boy and studied hard, his father would come back to see him. But he had been too naive.
Gradually, he understood. He would never get his father back. His parents’ marriage was an alliance. His mother was beautiful and from a scholarly family, always reserved and aloof. When his father didn’t come home, she never fought or complained, only wanting to live her own life.
But as a child who didn’t understand, he had longed for a father’s love…
“Tap, tap Timothy knocked on the table, pulling Sebastian back from his thoughts.
Timothy knew he had no emotional connection with this son.
It was just that his own father would only entrust the management of the company to this son.
“Hmph! This is blatant disrespect! I’m your father, and you make me wait?” Timothy was furious. “If Joanna hadn’t been here to keep me company, I would have left long ago.”
Sebastian raised an eyebrow and gave a faint smile but was incredibly intimidating.
“You could have left. It’s not like I insisted on seeing you.”
“You Timothy’s face flushed with anger, his eyes quickly becoming bloodshot.
“Uncle Timothy, please calm down. Sebastian has been very busy lately. Now that he’s here, and you two haven’t seen each other in so long, why don’t you have a good talk? Please, don’t be angry.”
Joanna’s soft, gentle voice eased Timothy’s anger considerably.
Seeing that he had calmed down, Joanna pressed the service bell to have the food brought in.
After the dishes were served.
As they ate, Timothy asked Sebastian, “I heard you’re no longer planning to divorce that useless Natalie.”
Sebastian’s gaze turned cold. “My marriage is none of your business.”
“Hmph! You think I want to meddle? I’ve tolerated this for long enough. Before, she didn’t want a divorce, and you were clamoring for one, every day Now Natalie wants a divorce, and you’re the one refusing. Have you lost your mind?”
“Natalie is jealous of Joanna and is always trying to frame her. That woman has a
dark heart. The sooner you divorce her, the sooner you can marry Joanna.”
“Joanna has waited so many years for you. Why are you making her wait?”
Sebastian looked at Joanna with a half-smile. “I can’t help it if she’s willing to.” Timothy was incensed.
Joanna heard the implication in his words: it serves her right.
In that moment, Sebastian gave Joanna the unsettling feeling that he was completely beyond her control.
He was smiling, but it was a cold smile.
“Sebastian, are you trying to kill me with anger?” Timothy glared at him. He had always been rebellious, ever since he was a child He never istened to a word his father Safd only to his grandparents.
Sebastian let out a cool, detached laugh. He elegantly crossed his legs, his aura aloof and noble. “But you’re still alive and well, aren’t you? You even have your illegitimate son and daughter out there in act your son
caffed to provoke me just yesterday.”
“Since I’m seeing you today, you can pass a message to him for me. If there’s a next
time, I won’t mind letting him go for a swim with the sharks.”
“You dare?” Timothy slammed down his silverware in a rage.
“Clang!” Sauce splattered all over Joanna’s clothes.
Her eyes were filled with fury, but she hid it well.
This Sebastian, he always managed to provoke his father to the brink of a heart
attack.
