Sebastian and Yvette heard Joseph announce from the door.

Sebastian replied, "Let him in." After that, he pulled Yvette over to lie down by his side. She scrambled to get up when she realized her dad was about to enter the room, but Sebastian wrapped her in a tight embrace, going so far as to pin her down by wrapping a leg across her. "Master, I beg of you. Please let me go, okay?" she pleaded to him when she was trapped.

"What if you escape once I let go of you? Let's wait for your dad to enter. I'll release you if he shows up with the phoenix blood herb," Sebastian replied.
