Seeing Christopher’s indifferent expression, Sebastian knew that Christopher wouldn’t stop until he divorced Rosalie.
What a wonderful uncle he was!
Does Rosalie know about this? Sebastian asked.
She doesn’t know yet, but we’ll tell her, Christopher replied.
You can’t tell her! Sebastian roared. You mustn’t!
Why can’t we tell her? Christopher furrowed his brows. Do you still have delusions about Rosalie? She’s your cousin!
So what if she’s my cousin? Sebastian retorted harshly. Don’t even mention hundreds of years ago—even if it were decades ago, it’s completely normal for cousins to be together. What’s wrong with that? We’re just distant relatives. At worst, Rosalie and I won’t have children! What does it matter to anyone else?
Upon seeing Sebastian in such a frenzied state, Christopher sighed. He stood up. He felt that there was nothing more to say to Sebastian.
Sebastian, if you’re going to think like this, there’s nothing I can do. Marriage isn’t something you can keep just because you want to. It also depends on Rosalie. She already wants to divorce you. If she knows she’s your cousin, would she still want to be with you? I advise you to give up on this idea sooner rather than later.
Shut up! Shut up! Sebastian’s emotions completely spiraled out of control, and he charged toward Christopher.
Yvonne used all her strength to push him back onto the bed. Seb, what are you doing? Stop it!
Get the hell out of here! he shouted.
With a loud slap, Sebastian hit her hard across the face. Yvonne, you’re my sister! How could you not tell me sooner? You’ve been hiding this from me all this time! You’re all so evil!
Yvonne covered her burning face, crying out in grief. She didn’t know what to say.
She knew how much of a blow this would be to Sebastian. She had wanted to tell him many times, but she didnt know how to start. In the beginning, she hadn’t said anything, and later, she didn’t know how to bring it up. So, it dragged on, all the way to now.
When she saw Sebastian becoming more and more unhinged, she felt that keeping it hidden any longer would be wrong. But she didn’t dare face him alone, so she brought Christopher with her.
Christopher shielded Yvonne behind him and said angrily, Have you lost your mind? You just hit your sister!
Sister? Sebastian laughed
maniacally. What sister? What uncle? Is this how you treat family? You can’t stand seeing me happy, can you? Even if you keep this secret from me for the rest of your lives what difference would it make? If Rosalie finds out that the Jackson family abandoned her, do you think she’ll quietly go back? Stop dreaming! Theodore betrayed her and she dumped that man, let alone the Jackson family who abandoned her!
Whether or not she returns to the Jackson family has nothing to do with your marriage, Sebastian. I know we should’ve told you this earlier, but it’s not too late now that you know, Christopher said.
Sebastian sneered. Heh! Get out of here! All of you, get the hell out!
Seeing Sebastian in this state, Christopher knew that there was no way to get to him now. He turned to Yvonne and said, Yvonne, let’s go for now. But Seb is going to be alone… she murmured.
It’s okay. Let him cool off. Christopher took Yvonne and left the hospital.
At the front door of their house, Yvonne said, Uncle, what should we do about Seb and Rosalie? It seems my brother really can’t get out of this. Should we just keep hiding it as if we don’t know anything? No one else knows about this, anyway.
