Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 278

"The hunter has become the hunted. He went for wool and came back shorn."

"One should never be too arrogant. After all, there's always someone better out there."

"Exactly. No matter how good you think you are, there is always someone out there who is better. One careless move is all it takes for you to lose everything."

The crown sighed.

"Zia, I'll let you kill this guy," Sebastian offered.

"Thank you, Mr. Wilder." Zia hurriedly expressed her gratitude. She wanted to kill Marcus herself for revenge.

Though Marcus didn't succeed just now, he did tear her clothes and take advantage of her. His actions fueled her hatred.

Marcus' expression changed drastically, and he warned, "Don't blame me for not warning you. I'm the son of the Osborne family. If you want to kill me, you should consider the consequences."

"And you should accept your defeat graciously. Are you trying to go back on your word?" Zia asked angrily.

Marcus sneered. "You can kill me, but my family will seek revenge. That's just human nature, isn't it? What's wrong with that?"

It was a blatant threat, but one couldn't deny that Marcus was speaking the truth. Even if he didn't say anything, his family would surely seek revenge by any means necessary once they found out. The Osborne family was indeed powerful. They ranked high even among hidden families.

Zia's fury burned as hot as her helplessness.

"Mr. Wilder, let's just leave it at that." Joseph sighed.

Marcus, feeling smug, continued, "And there's also my sister. If you dare lay a finger on her, the Osborne family won't let it go either."

Joseph and Zia were both enraged. Marcus had taken playing dirty to the extreme.

"There is no need to endure any longer when you've been pushed to the limit. Even if we don't kill him, we must give him a lifelong, unforgettable lesson."

As Sebastian spoke, he suddenly took a swift step forward and, using his finger as a sword, unleashed sword energy.

With that, Marcus' legs were severed at the knees as though they were branches.

Marcus was first stunned before he lost control and fell to the ground. A series of agonizing screams followed.

"Argh! My legs! Ah!"

The screams were bone-chilling, causing discomfort to anyone who heard them.

Marcus writhed in pain on the ground. Blood was gushing everywhere.
