There was a moment when a glimmer of hope shone within Sebastian’s heart.

It was as if he was in a deep well, and someone suddenly tossed a rope down. He might not be able to climb out of it himself, but at least he could save everyone else. He could send everyone away.

“I heard you. Go back and tell him that my surname will only ever be Hayes. I will not accept any other surnames or titles!” growled Sebastian icily and clearly when he told Jake his decision.

Jake understood what that meant right away.

That also means that Devin has to help keep everything a secret for as long as he could.

Jake left soon after.

Karl was stunned once more.

Karl assumed that he misheard it, so he asked, “Mr. Hayes, i-is your fever not down yet? How could Madam possibly be in contact with that woman? That’s just ridiculous.”
