True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 213

Chapter 213 I Know Him

Just as Mason was rushing towards Joey, a gunshot rang out from behind, and he fell to the ground. Blood flowed down his back, pooling on the floor.

Sebastian immediately covered Joey's eyes and gently reassured her, "Don't be afraid, it's over now. Let's go."

After saying that, he bent down to pick Joey up in his arms, gave Dominic a few instructions, and then left.

Moments ago, Joey had been confronting Mason, but now she was weak and limp in Sebastian's arms. Her two cold hands clutched tightly at his shirt. Her teeth chattered uncontrollably. Her tear-filled eyes stared intently at Sebastian, her voice weak. "Sebastian, how is Mrs. Guise?"

Sebastian kissed her lips gently and said softly, "She had a few stitches on her back, but she's fine now. Don't worry."

Joey looked into Sebastian's eyes, which resembled Leonard's, and softly said, "When a woman senses danger... her instinct is to scream, to run. But Mrs. Guise... she didn't hesitate. She threw herself into harm's way. Don't you find that strange?"

Sebastian looked down at her. "You think she likes my dad?"

"Not just feelings... love; it's deep love. That's why she risked her life. If you were in danger, I would do the same."

"But my dad said his flings were just for show, and he never had intimate contact with other women."

"That doesn't mean they didn't have feelings for him. Your dad was a famous figure back then, and very handsome. He must have been liked by many women. He and Mrs. Guise must have had some connection before, even if he didn't know it." Sebastian's eyes darkened. He recalled what Leonard had told him.
