Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian)

Sebastian pivoted, realizing that a hunched old man was standing less than ten feet away from him.

He broke into a cold sweat. Given that this old man had silently approached him from such a close distance, his skills must be remarkable.

He would've been at a disadvantage if the old man were to ambush him earlier.

The old man's gray hair was sparse, and his face looked weathered. His dark, deep-set eyes made him seem lifeless.

Sebastian quickly regained his composure. "Are you the owner?"

"That's right. Are you here to pawn something?" the old man asked.

"No. I'm here to buy something." Sebastian unfurled a piece of paper. "I'm looking for this amulet."

The old man glanced over at it. "I'm sorry, we don't have it here."

"I came because I was well-informed. Why are you withholding information during a deal?"

"Fine, I'll tell you the truth, then. We do have the amulet, but a customer pawned it. He's going to return in a few days to redeem it, so I can't sell it to you," the old man politely refused.

"Could you tell me who pawned it? Or could you contact him and let him know that I'm willing to buy it at a high price?"

The old man shook his head with a smile. "I'm sorry. This is confidential information."
