Chapter 401: 401: Betrayal

Sebastian checked his phone several times, but there were no calls or messages from Geoffrey Gullington. He had no idea what was happening in Cross City.

He had originally planned to take advantage of Daniel’s absence from the country and deal with that bitch Olivia Jenkins once and for all. He hadn’t expected to be played by Daniel.

Sebastian Thompson did not get a report from Geoffrey Gullington, but instead received a clarification from Benjamin Davis.

Benjamin posted a photo of a sunrise at sea and added a geotag, proving that he had been out fishing on a boat last night, living another life, and had not had a secret rendezvous with Olivia Jenkins.

Benjamin made it clear that the alleged affair circulating online was a slanderous lie. In fact, Olivia’s secretary had also been at their table.

Benjamin even invited the restaurant staff to confirm that he was never alone with Olivia. Every time they met, Olivia’s secretary was present, and they were in public places.

Benjamin also declared that if Olivia decided to bring a lawsuit against those spreading rumors, he would fully cooperate.

Sebastian also saw that online users collectively condemned the renowned paparazzi who had spread the rumors. They all chanted for the paparazzi to get out and stop humiliating themselves.

Internet users also strongly supported Olivia in suing those who spread lies. They must not be tolerated.

The plan had failed. Sebastian was both angry and annoyed; his face was terribly gloomy.

Suddenly, new news popped up on his social media. It startled Sebastian; his heart tightened involuntarily, a sense of dread surging toward him.

Feigning calm, Sebastian clicked on the latest update.

That bastard Geoffrey had betrayed him. In the video, all the facts had been exposed. This was terrible!

Sebastian’s anger reached its peak. His bulging eyes seemed ready to pop out of his head.

Bella Thompson’s trembling hand finally dialed her brother’s number.

As soon as the call connected, Bella anxiously asked, “Is what Geoffrey said all true? Sebastian, what on earth did you do?”

Sighing, Sebastian helplessly said, “Sis, I just wanted to help you and Matthew. Despite my careful planning, I was outsmarted by Daniel. He returned earlier. Otherwise, everything would have gone smoothly, and we could have gotten rid of that bitch.”

Bella was so angry she stomped her foot. She was so upset she wanted to cry, “You are so foolish! The old man will surely investigate. If he finds out it was all your doing, the Thompson Family will be finished. You’ve helped that bitch and Daniel to consolidate the Marshall Family’s position. Can’t you keep still for a moment? I’ve told you not to rush, didn’t you hear?”

Sebastian’s face was extremely ugly and twisted, “Sis, I’m sorry!”

No matter how angry or how much she scolded her brother, it wouldn’t help. The only thing they could do now was to minimize the damage.

After calming down, Bella said, “Get ready. I’ll go with you to see the old man. We have to admit what we did to regain some face. Considering familial relationships, the old man won’t be too harsh.”

“Sis, I’ll take full responsibility.”

“Will the old man believe you? Your brother-in-law must be furious too. You’ve ruined all the good feelings that Matthew and I have struggled to regain.”

“Sis, I was wrong!”

“Enough, hurry up to Beverly Hills.”

In the study, Michael Marshall sat silently in front of the old man, not uttering a word.

The old man showed a contemptuous sneer and said dismissively, “Trouble is brewing, the Thompson Family is done for, you are in charge.”
