While Sebastian had suspected it was the Zatch family or the Osborne family, he never imagined Phaedra Island to be the culprit.
Even if his mother was a practitioner, how could she have provoked people from Phaedra Island?
“Yvette, do you know the consequences of lying to me?” Sebastian’s eyes flashed with a cold light. He suspected Yvette was saying this because she was trying to use the people from Phaedra Island to get rid of him.
“I’m telling the truth! I swear! If you don’t believe me, I can swear on my life,” Yvette anxiously explained.
Throughout this exchange, Sebastian kept his eyes fixed on hers.
People could lie, but their eyes often betrayed them. Unless she was a master actress, her eyes revealed only fear and helplessness, indicating she was likely telling the truth.
“Why would the people from Phaedra Island torture my mother?” Sebastian pressed. “I don’t know. I only heard about it from someone else,” Yvette replied.
“Who did you hear it from?” Sebastian asked urgently.
“It’s Frostclaw!”
“Frostclaw?” Sebastian echoed.
Yvette hesitated before adding, “If you promise to let me go, I’ll tell you something important.”
“Speak!”
“You must promise me, and you can’t harm me. Otherwise, I won’t say anything. But I guarantee you’ll regret it,” Yvette insisted.
“Fine, I promise. Now, speak,” Sebastian demanded.
“Frostclaw betrayed you. He gave me the video, and he told me about your mother. He did this because of a woman,” Yvette revealed.
“Lillian!” Sebastian exclaimed in shock.
