Sebastian tilted his head and looked at her. Sasha felt he appeared to be less hostile after hearing what she said.

“Fine. You’re smart but too bad, you’re not a member of the Blackwood family,” he responded.

“The Blackwoods?” Sasha had no clue what he was talking about.

“Yes. Just so you know, Roxanne is Heyman Rocke’s granddaughter.” Sebastian gave her a smirk.

Sasha’s eyes widened in shock.

She knew who Heyman was. He was Avenport’s top neurosurgeon in the eighties.

Heyman was as popular as her mother’s father, Hannick Blackwood. Hannick came from a family of Chinese physicians, and he was the crème de la crème of them all. While they were known for their expertise in TCM in Avenport, the Rockes were experts in Western medicine. Had the two families worked with each other, they would be invincible.

Unfortunately, the Blackwoods had eventually lost their influence in the healthcare industry.

I thought the Rocke family had left the country? I’ve not heard about them for ages,” Sasha asked.

“That’s because you and the Blackwoods were ignorant. The Rocke family had set up a big healthcare corporation overseas, and they have many hospitals all over the world,” he explained. “And Roxanne is one of the persons who manages the corporation.”

“Meanwhile, the Blackwoods…” he let out a mirthless laugh.

Sasha gritted her teeth. When will he stop humiliating me?

Sebastian’s remark triggered Sasha, especially when she thought of how miserable Jackson was. Yet, what he said was true.

Once, the Rocke family and the Blackwoods were the most prominent families in the city. While the former continued to thrive, the latter had lost everything they owned, including a roof over their heads.
