Wayne scoffed. “Sebastian, do you actually believe that?”
Sebastian ignored his sarcasm and pleaded, “Grandpa, please help me find her. I can’t live without her. If I lose her, I’ll die.”
Wayne shook his head. “I promised her I wouldn’t help you. Give it up. In a couple of days, you’ll meet the heiress from Celestial Group. If she likes you, marry her.”
Sebastian stood up,

“My wife will only ever be Tessa. Grandpa, if you won’t help me, I’ll find her on my own.”
What followed was a frenzy. Sebastian went all in, mobilizing every contact he had, searching for me like a madman.

Pathetic. Love that arrived too late was just sickening.
Daniel leaned over and clicked his tongue. “So, you’re thinking of going back to that guy? The one who chose to save the woman you sponsored during the earthquake, paid five million to buy your life, and then abandoned you in a car crash to rescue another woman?
“The same guy who emotionally abused you while still married, paraded his mistress around, let her wear your clothes, sleep in your bed, and even got her pregnant?
