Chapter 219 Rushing into the Sea of Fire

"When Sebastian got back, fire trucks were already there.

Seeing the blaze, Sebastian clenched his fists. He walked up to Derek and asked, ""What's going on? How did this happen?""

Derek looked worried. ""Cordelia got hold of gasoline, sent the servants away, and tried to set herself on fire in the bedroom. We don't know her condition yet; firefighters are trying to rescue her."" Sebastian's eyes darkened. ""How do you know she set the fire herself?""

""She video-called me before starting the fire, said some weird stuff, and then lit it on camera.""

""Sebastian, we can't let this get out. The media will have a field day. They'll think you imprisoned your mom for your wife. Winters Group's stock will plummet.""

Sebastian's expression grew colder. ""It's probably too late. This was planned to boost Cordelia's position and hurt Winters Group.""

Just then, a bodyguard reported. ""Mr. Winters, a bunch of reporters are outside wanting to interview you.""

Sebastian's gaze turned icy as he saw the cameras and phones pointed at them. He realized the news had already spread online.

"""I've underestimated whoever's behind this. They want to destroy the Winters Family."" Thinking this, Sebastian clenched his fists and ordered, ""The fire is dangerous. No one gets in!"" The bodyguard replied, ""Yes, Mr. Winters.""

Sebastian then turned to the fire chief. ""Give me a set of protective gear.""

The fire chief refused. ""Mr. Winters, the fire's too intense. You're not a firefighter; it's too dangerous.""
