1489 Chu Family's Downfall

"I doubt this is a coincidence," Yuan said after seeing Sebastian waiting by the gate.

"Oh, I called him right before leaving so they know we're visiting," Chu Liuxiang quickly explained. "Should I not have done that?"

"You did the right thing. I didn't have his contact information, so I wouldn't have been able to contact him even if I had wanted to. This is much better than hoping they accept us at the front gate."

When they arrived, Sebastian bowed to them in a respectful manner, "This humble servant greets the Young Lady and the Young Master."

"We'd like to visit the Chu Family. Would that be a problem?" Yuan inquired.

"No, there is no problem at all. The Master is expecting your arrival inside."

Sebastian opened the gate and gestured for them to enter the vehicle parked right inside.

Once they were seated, Sebastian drove the vehicle toward the mansion.

The atmosphere inside the vehicle was awkward and silent. Chu Liuxiang looked like she wanted to speak but didn't know how to start the conversation.

Seeing her fidgety movements, Sebastian broke the silence with a question, "Young Lady, how have you been? I hope you've been living a healthy and happy life outside the Chu Family."

Chu Liuxiang nodded, "I've been doing great with Yuan and everyone at the Demon Sealing Faction. What about you, Sebastian?"

"The same as usual—is what I would like to say, but without you there, I've been reassigned to be your brothers—the Young Masters' butler."
