Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 259

A God of War served as a local ruler.

Having his subordinates attacked had already angered Yale immensely. Now, being blatantly ignored only fueled his fury further. He strode toward Sebastian, ready to make an example of him.

Seeing this, Gabriel and Harrison smirked cunningly. The others in the room looked at Sebastian as if he were a dead man walking.

"Lord Wavebreaker, please calm down," Elsa uttered. She hesitated for a moment before she stepped forward to stop him.

"Are you Elsa Hunter, the soon-to-be Lord Gustwind?" Yale asked uncertainly.

"Yes, it is I. Greetings, Lord Wavebreaker," Elsa said with a slight bow.

"Why are you stopping me?" Yale asked.

Elsa replied, "He is an old acquaintance of mine. Could you do me a favor and spare him this once, for my sake?"

Yale frowned slightly and hesitated before saying, "I can do you this favor, but this person hit my subordinates and disrespected me. He must kneel and apologize."

"That's only right. Thank you, Lord Wavebreaker," Elsa hurriedly thanked him. She soon turned to Sebastian. "You heard what Lord Wavebreaker said. Just kneel and apologize, and this will all end."

"Kneel and apologize? Is he worthy?" Sebastian said without turning his head, his words dripping with disdain.

"You're asking for it!" Yale erupted in rage. "Lord Gustwind, step aside. Today, I must kill him!"

"I've done all I can. This is your own doing, so don't blame me." Elsa sighed with a hint of helplessness in her eyes before stepping aside.

She felt somewhat guilty toward Sebastian and had tried to plead on his behalf. Now that Sebastian was courting his own demise, she would no longer intervene.

Besides, Yale was truly enraged. Even if Elsa wanted to stop him, it was beyond her ability.

With a swift motion, Yale lunged toward Sebastian, reaching for the back of his neck. He intended to lift Sebastian up and violently throw him to the ground, then beat him until he begged for mercy before killing him. Only such an act could quench his burning anger.

Esme, witnessing this, turned pale with fear. She didn't know what to do.

However, Sebastian remained calm and composed. He even turned to face Yale with a playful smile on his lips.

"How is that possible?"

The crowd was utterly stunned, especially those who knew Sebastian, like the members of the Hunter family, the Lynch family, Harrison, Gabriel, and Taylor. They were all left speechless and dumbfounded. Lillian, naturally, was no exception. Her mouth was agape in shock.

In that moment, she pieced together many things that had puzzled her. She finally understood why Andrew had called her "madam" upon seeing the Seraphic Tear Pendant. She also recalled her visit to Phoenix Corporation, where Derick had addressed her as "madam" and treated her with the utmost respect.

It turned out that she really was the Supreme Lady at that time.

Elsa was equally shocked. She couldn't move as disbelief filled her eyes. She had always pursued power and strength while dreaming of becoming the Supreme One's woman. She was even willing to be his mistress if necessary. Yet, she had let this dream slip through her fingers by her own actions.

Jenny was also in shock and filled with deep regret.

She had never imagined that her former fiancé, whom she had looked down upon, was the Supreme One she had always aspired to associate with. She could have soared to greatness, becoming the envy of all women, but she had destroyed her chance with her own hands. At this moment, she wished she could slap herself. However, it was too late to undo what had been lost.

Except for Esme, everyone else, including Lillian and Elsa, knelt on the ground. Those who had harbored grudges against Sebastian—like Evelyn, Lyra, Gabriel, and Harrison—turned pale with fear and trembled uncontrollably.

"He is actually the Supreme One! How is this possible?"
