“Where is the Zatch family island located?” Sebastian asked urgently.
“I have no idea,” Lucy answered with a shake of her head.

“Don’t look at me, I don’t know either,” Jenny said irritably.
“How could you not know if you’ve been there? Sebastian pressed.

“We went there by yacht, and it’s hard to get your bearings at sea. How would I know where it was?” Jenny retorted coldly.
“Then you must at least know where you departed from, right?” Sebastian continued.
“We flew to the coast by helicopter first I don’t know where that was either.”
“was there anything distinctive along the way that you remember? Sebastian asked, his voice showing a mix of hope and desperation.
“We were chatting at the time, I wasn’t paying attention. Just stop asking, I don’t know anything,” Jenny replied, clearly annoyed.
Sebastian was left speechless by Jenny, who seemed almost deliberately unhelpful
Lucy tried to reassure him, “Sebastian, I know you’re anxious, but we can’t nish this. The Zarch family likely keeps their island well hidden. It’s a place I’ve never heard of either. But don’t worry, I will find a way to locate it.”

“Where are the Zatches based?” Sebastian asked again, deciding to be more direct and determined to find the Zatch family for a clear answer.
Sensing Sebastian’s determination, Lucy quickly interjected, “Sebastian, don’t act rashly. The Zatch family is not to be trilled with. Going there without any proof would be useless and could put you in danger. Trust me, I will handle this.”
Sebastian nodded. “Don’t worry, Aunt Locy. I won’t do anything recess.
“Why don’t you stay with us for a while? Spend some time with Jenny and get to know each other better,” Lucy suggested, smiling warmly.

Seeing his confusion, Lucy clarified, “You two have a betrothal arrangement. Once we find your mother, we will arrange your wedding ”
“I’m betrothed to her?” Sebastian exclaimed, clearly baffled
Lucy smiled gently and explained, “It was a childhood engagement arranged by your mother and Now that you’re both adults, it’s time to honor that promise”
“Aunt Lucy, I’m already married. Let’s forget about this,” Sebastian replied.
“Good to know,” Jenny chimed in, visibly relieved.

Sebastian was dressed simply and lacked any outward signs of wealth, which was far from what she imagined.
As a wealthy heiress with many suitors, she couldn’t imagine marrying such a man, especially when her heart belonged to Harrison, the distinguished heir of the prestigious Zatch family.
Lacy continued, undeterred by their reactions. “I know, you married into a minor family in Ravenview City and just recently divorced.”
“We’ve signed the divorce agreement but haven’t actually divorced, and we don’t plan to,” Sebastian corrected her.
“That won’t do. The engagement was made by your mother and I. With her fate uncertain, I must bonor our agreement, and you must too. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful to her. Do you want to dishonor your mother? Lucy pressed, her tone growing stern.
“Mom, why force him? He doesn’t want to marry me, and I certainly don’t want to marry him. Why bother?” Jenny protested, her frustration clear
