Chapter 1406

Fearful The Whole Time

He finally collapsed onto the ground.

At that sight, Sebastian raised the gun in his hands again.

“Haha, Sebastian. You are a joke. Yes, I am responsible for everything. But who are you to judge me?
Clearly, you are the real culprit here.”

Seeing that her husband remained silent, Leah, who was lying on the ground, started to laugh
hysterically.

Sebastian’s expression changed instantly.

“What did you say?”

“Don’t you remember? I only did all of this because my son died in your hands years ago. If he did not
pass on, I would not have gone crazy. Things would not have escalated to this point either. Therefore,
you are the person to be blamed for it all!”

She is a psycho. I can’t believe she made it seem as though that’s the conclusion of our conversation.
How cunning!

Sasha, who had been listening from behind, blanched.

“Nonsense! How could you—”

Boom!

Before she could finish, they heard a terrifying sound. It turned out that Leah had blown herself up with
an explosive.



Sasha was dumbstruck.

Luckily, Karl had arrived at that moment. He took one look at the situation before running over to his
boss to drag him away.

This matter had already taken a huge toll on Sebastian.

If he got the blood splatters or pieces of human flesh on him, he would go crazy.

The entire area was silent for about four to five minutes. Finally, Sasha climbed up from the ground,
and she noticed the dumbfounded look on Sebastian’s face.

In a panic, she grabbed his hands and cried out his name, “Sebby?”

To her relief, after she shouted a few times, his stupefied expression faded a little, and his blank gaze
slowly landed on her.

“Are you okay?”

He managed to croak out a few words, seeing her face covered with dirt and blood.

Sasha nodded fervently and replied, “I’m okay. Don’t worry. We’re all okay. Little Ian is okay too.”

She tried to comfort him while keeping eye contact with him, afraid that she might witness something
terrifying in his eyes again.

“Oh, that’s good to hear. This happened because of my negligence. I did not expect that Leah was
capable enough to take control of the entire base. Even when I grew suspicious, I assumed it wouldn’t
end up being something of this scale,” Sebastian explained.

His voice sounded calm. While his face was paler than usual, he did not show any other emotions.



It was then that Sasha could finally relax a little.

There was no way she could blame him for all this.

Not only him, but she did not expect this situation to occur either. After all, that madwoman had looked
like any other retired housewife.

Therefore, even after uncovering her ploy at the supermarket, they did not keep their guard up. They
only thought of leaving with their child before they left it to the research institute to handle the matter.

Taking that route like others would usually go without a hitch.

Yet, to everyone’s surprise, the woman was worse than a terrorist. Like those two-faced villains who
would act innocent, she seemed harmless on the outside. If she did not uncover herself, no one would
notice her role in it.

After the incident, the couple left with their child.

Jonathan came to the island two hours later.

“I heard that the crazy b*tch said something that she should not have to Sebastian. How is he doing? Is
he all right?”

He came to the island after he went to the base and interrogated Sasha immediately once he arrived.

Glancing upstairs, Sasha wondered what was going on too. She could only hold her finger to her mouth
and tell him to keep his voice down.

“He seems all right for now, but I will continue to keep tabs on him.”

Jonathan’s expression dimmed.



Suddenly, he felt as though the burden of the past had come back to haunt him again. It felt like a
nightmare, and it was so suffocating that he could not breathe.

He chose to leave the island in the end. Meanwhile, Sasha and Sebastian prepared to return to
Avenport after Ian had recovered from the shock.

“Little Ian, are you okay? Do you feel uncomfortable?”

“No, Mommy. Sorry for not telling you that I saw those bodyguards in the morning. If I did, you would
not have gotten injured,” Ian muttered guiltily.

On their way back, he scanned the number of wounds on his mother’s body, and his eyes began to well
up with tears.

It was actually Sebastian’s arrangement.

As he could not figure out what Leah had done to the child, he had ordered a few bodyguards to
protect Sasha and Ian without their knowledge.

Gently stroking her son’s head, Sasha assured him, “It’s okay. These aren’t serious injuries. There is no
need for you to feel bad.”

Then she abruptly turned to Sebastian. “Sebby, after we get to Avenport, do we return to Frontier Bay
first? Or should we head to the hospital for Ian to have a check-up first?”
