Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian)

However, Sebastian still sensed something was off. The gatekeepers had changed.

During his brief stay at the Sanders Manor, the guards had always been the same few individuals on rotation. Yet now, unfamiliar figures stood watch.

Sebastian's suspicions deepened further when his spiritual senses detected even the hidden sentries had been replaced. However, his probing was limited by the reach of his spiritual senses.

"Mr. Ethan, what brings you here?" the guards asked, bowing hurriedly upon spotting Sebastian.

"I need to speak with your patriach," Sebastian replied calmly.

"Mr. Sanders is right inside. Please, come in, Mr. Ethan." The guards respectfully ushered him in without hesitation.

As Sebastian stepped into Sanders Manor, a subtle unease settled upon him due to the faint odor of blood hanging in the air.

"Mr. Sanders, Mr. Ethan has arrived," one of the guards announced upon reaching the grand hall.

Francis quickly emerged to greet him. "Mr. Ethan! What brings you here?"

"I was just hoping to share a drink. I hope I'm not causing any inconvenience," Sebastian responded smoothly.
