Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2336

Sebastian Brenand spoke indifferently, his tone resolute. He didn't seem to have any reservation or hesitation whatsoever. Rachel Wood sat beside him as if she was a mere spectator, not wanting to get involved in his family matters.

These days, she had grown much wiser due to her pregnancy. Becoming a mother allowed her to become more mature.

She also stopped behaving like a saint as she did in the past. She would not hold Sebastian back from his decisions nor offer him advice.

She also wouldn't fight or question him.

His reaction made it clear that he wasn't giving his parents the easy way out.

Right then, their facial expressions turned even gloomier.

Fuming, Sebastian's father pointed an accusing finger at his son. "Are you planning to cut off all ties with us? Even if we've agreed to let you two stay together?" Sebastian bared his hands without hesitation and nodded. "Why not? You should've known everything you did back then was unforgivable."

They had no retort to that, not knowing what to say other than being angry.

"All right, hurry up and leave if you have nothing else to say. Stop bothering my wife by being here. You're both quite a disgusting sight," he bit out with distaste.

He no longer felt anything for his parents. As time went on, he began to see things more clearly, and he was now determined not to have anything to do with them.

It didn't matter if they were genuine or merely feigning truce.

He just wanted them gone.

"We shouldn't have raised you, Sebastian," his father declared.

"Yes," his mother spoke up. "You don't have any sense of gratitude toward your parents."

Their words only made him chuckle.

"Okay, say whatever you want. I won't argue with any of it. Just leave once you're done, and don't ever barge into my home uninvited again to taint it with your filth. You can't afford to."

Then, he promptly stood up and gently carried Rachel up the stairs.

He paused and continued to speak icily without turning back. "I'm warning you. If you dare to do. anything to Rachel, I will kill you. Not only that, but I'll destroy everything that belongs to the Brenand family."

Rachel and the baby inside her stomach were everything to Sebastian. Anyone who tried to harm them would have to fight him in a death match.

His parents shuddered simultaneously at his parting words.

Their son had thoroughly become more decisive and hardened.

"I told you it wouldn't work even if we tried," his mother lamented sadly at her husband, who frowned deeply without a word.

He felt a sudden sense of remorse, regretting everything he did to Rachel and Sebastian.

It was karma.

He released a long, helpless sigh at the thought before standing up to leave.

His wife remained quiet and followed him.

Meanwhile, Sebastian had brought Rachel into their bedroom, setting her down carefully on the bed.

He then sat by her side and helped to settle her in comfortably by stacking pillows behind her.

Once he made sure she was

comfortable, he frowned as he

gazed at her. "You should've just let them die even if they threatened to kill themselves. Why did you have to meet them? Why did you even let them in?"
