Chapter 325: Chapter 325: Admission and Disappointment
In the hospital room.
Cody was still unconscious and hadn’t woken up, a layer of gauze was stuck on his small head, and his little face was haggard and pale.
Sebastian Blackwood’s tall figure stood at the door of the hospital room, and for the first time, he lost the courage to step inside.
The last time he saw Cody, the little guy was joyfully clutching his leg and calling him "handsome uncle", and now he was lying pitifully still on the hospital bed. To say his heart wasn’t aching would be a lie.
Sebastian’s deep eyes darkened slightly, and his breathing became heavier.
Ivy Kensington looked at him coldly and said sarcastically, "Master Blackwood, if you’re done looking, hurry back to comfort your Nina. After all, she’s not having a good time alone in the detention center!"
Sebastian’s dark gaze seriously fixed on Ivy for a moment, and for the first time, he didn’t feel anger at a woman’s sarcasm.
With a roll of his Adam’s apple, he strode out.
Ivy watched his back, laughing twice in her heart.
A jerk is indeed a jerk; at this moment, all he can think about is Nina!
Detention center.
It was Nina Shaw’s first time in such a place. The bald men were caught, and she wasn’t much better off.
"Nina Shaw, please explain clearly why you sent people to vandalize Ms. Sharon Langley’s home. Do you know this behavior constitutes a crime?"
The officer’s voice was exceptionally stern, and the glaring light shone over her eyes, making Nina feel on the verge of collapse.
She kept mumbling, "I don’t know, I don’t know anything..."
Seeing her lack of cooperation, the police officer’s sternness intensified, and he was about to ask again—
"Master Blackwood is here."
Someone in the police station called out, and soon, Sebastian dressed in a dark suit, came in with long strides.
Nina instantly saw hope and cried, "Brother Sebastian, I really don’t know anything, please get me out of here, okay?"
She didn’t want to stay in this hellish place!
At this, everyone in the police station secretly groaned.
Everyone in Celestia knew how famously indulgent Master Blackwood was with Nina; this time, it would be hard to convict her.
Sebastian’s indifferent gaze swept over Nina, and finally, he sat across from her through the glass.
Seeing him like this, Nina’s heart skipped a beat for no reason.
Brother Sebastian seemed different than usual...
"Nina, tell me honestly, did you send people to smash things at Sharon Langley’s home?"
Sebastian’s voice was slightly deep, carrying a natural authority.
Nina’s face turned even paler, and her lips moved several times, but she couldn’t say a word.
Since Sebastian was asking like this, he must already have some guess.
If she continued to deny, it would most likely disappoint Sebastian...
Her eyes shifted, and finally, Nina admitted, clasping her face and sobbing faintly, "Brother Sebastian, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hide it from you. I was just so afraid. Ivy came back, and you kept going to see her. I didn’t know what to do, so I thought to teach her a bit of a lesson by targeting Sharon. I only wanted to scare her; I never thought it would turn out like this..."
Hearing her admission, Sebastian felt no waves in his heart, only a bit of amusement.
Perhaps Ivy’s saying he was blind had some truth to it.
He had watched Nina grow up. In front of him, she always seemed innocent, yet secretly she could do such things.
But now that she’s admitted it, it means there’s still hope for her change.
Letting out a sigh, Sebastian stood up.
Nina immediately clenched her fists, "Brother Sebastian, aren’t you going to bail me out?"
She had already admitted her mistake; what more did she need to do!
Nina angrily screamed in her heart.
