Chapter 108 I Miss Her So Much

Joey's Twitter post was long, and Sebastian took his time reading it.

She detailed how irresponsible Angie was to the family and how much she hurt her and her father.

Once the post was out, the online backlash accusing Joey of being disrespectful to her mother finally died down.

But then people started attacking her mom, revealing Angie's chaotic private life.

These revelations seemed to defend Joey and her dad but only caused her more pain.

Sebastian had no idea what Joey was doing now or if she'd break down reading those comments.

He worried, 'Can she handle the pain of reopening old wounds?'

After much hesitation, he called Maxwell.

The phone rang for a while before Maxwell answered, cursing. "Sebastian, listen. Whatever Joey suffered today, I'll make Isabella suffer twice as much. If you try to stop me, I'll destroy your whole family!" Sebastian stayed silent, taking the scolding.

After a long pause, he asked hoarsely, "How is she?"

"What do you think? She's locked in her room and won't come out. Even the psychologist can't reach her. She says she's fine and even smiles at us. Do you know how bitter that smile is? If you have any sense of responsibility, break up with her and leave her alone!"

Sebastian's throat tightened, remembering how Joey looked the last time she saw Angie.

'She used to cling to me and rely on me. Does she still need me now? Does she hate me? Am I the last person she wants to see?' His veins tightened as he thought about it.

He croaked, "Maxwell, take good care of her. Call me if anything happens."

Maxwell snapped, "Go away!"

After hanging up, Sebastian's hands trembled.

He pulled out a cigarette and tried to light it, but his hands shook so much it took over ten tries before a blue flame appeared.

He bit the cigarette and lit it, a scalding tear falling on his hand.

He closed his eyes and took several deep drags, trying to numb himself with nicotine.

But all he could think about was Joey's pained face, like a knife twisting in his gut.
