Billionaire's Regret Finding Her (Caitlin and Sebastian) novel Chapter 242

Chapter 242

Sebastian stood by the containment chamber, his hands pressed against the cold glass as he stared at the unconscious man inside

The father he had searched for over eighteen years wrongfully resented, presumed dead–had been locked away in this hellish laboratory all along.

And it had taken Sebastian this long to find him.

Damn it.

“Dad..“His voice was low and hoarse. “I’m sorry I was late,

A glance at the monitors showed faint but stable vital signs. He’s alive.

Sebastian instinctively reached for the chamber’s release mechanism, but a hand stopped him

“Lord, we can’t open it recklessly,” one of his men warned. “If his condition is unstable, any sudden changes could be dangerous. We need to know exactly what was done to him first.”

Sebastian clenched his fists. He’s right. I can’t be careless.

His gaze swept the lab, landing on the control panel and scattered documents. “Find out what kind of experiments they conducted here. Now”

Minutes later, two of his men dragged in a man in a white lab coat–glasses askiw, trembling with fear.

“Lord, we found this scientist in the lower level

The scientist collapsed to his knees, hands shaking. “P–please don’t kill me!‘ talk! I’ll talk!”

Sebastian’s stare bore into him. “Then start talking, Why is he in there? What the hell did you do to him?”

The scientist stammered, his voice barely above a whisper. “W we didn’t… experiment on him. A month ago, he tried to escape and injured the Fortress Lord. As punishment, the orders came to sedate him indefinitely.”

Sedated.

Not dead.

Sebastian’s pulse pounded. “Wake him up. Now”

The scientist nearly tripped over himself in his haste. “Y–yes! Right away!”

Under the watchful barrel of a gun, the man disabled the sedation protocols, and the containment chamber began to depressurize. As the glass panel unlocked with a soft hiss, Sebastian was the first to step forward.

He gripped his father’s hand–pale, frail, but still warm

“Dad… I’m taking you home.”

His voice was resolute, a promise.

His men carefully transferred Raymond onto a stretcher and carried him out of the Lab. Outside, The Obsidian Order’s aircraft had already landed in the open courtyard, engines humming, ready for departure.

Sebastian led the way as they boarded, carrying his father aboard personally.

Before leaving, he issued a final command.

The Aftermath–Black Wall Fortress a Ruina

By the time Black Shark–Rare–returned to Black Wolf Fortress, the night sky was alight with flames.

His empire, his legacy, was burning before his eyes,

“What the hell happened?” he bellowed

A bloodied survivor staggered toward him. “A.

Race’s face twisted in rage. “Where’s Van? Where are the commanders

The man coughed, blood staining his lips. “They… they’re all inside…”

A guttural snarare from Raze’s throat as he shoved the man aside.

“PUT THE FIRE OUT! NOW!”

His men scrambled to obey

By the time the flames were doused, the once–mighty fortress lay in ruim.

Raze stormed into the main hall, only to find his brother’s charred remains amid the wreckage

Van… VAN!”

His agonized scream echoed through the smoldering ruins.

Kneeling beside his brother’s body, his fists clenched as fury burned through him.

“The Obsidian Order… Sebastian Vanderbilt… Isavear, we will be enemies until the end of time!”

Back at The Obsidian Order Headquarters

The mission had been a complete success

Despite being outnumbered, The Obsidian Order had crushed Black Wolf Fortress, dealing a severe blow to one of the most feared underground organizations.

The victorious warriors returned to their bay, spirits high.

Sebastian, however, wasted no time.

Black Wolf Fortress had kept him weak on purpose, ensuring he wouldn’t love another chance to rum.

Sebastian’s gaze darkened. “Do whatever it takes. Heal him.”

“Yes. Lord

As Raymond was wheeled into surgery, Sebastian convened his top generals for a debriefing

But after that, he didn’t leave the medical wing,

He waited.

And while he waited, he sent a message.

Caitlin’s phone buzzed,

The moment she saw the sender–““Sebastian–her heart nearly stopped.

A wave of relief crashed over her.

He was safe.

He had found his father.

Caitlin exhaled deeply, pressing a

a hand against her chest.

She finally let go of the breath she hadn’t even realized she was holding.

Turning around, she called, “Howard, Arthur, Bruce, come on! Time for breakfast.”

The three boys hurried into the dining room, where the entire Vanderbilt family had already gathered.

Outside, Quinton and Kyle–Richard and Willa’s twin grandsons–were playing near the entrance. But the moment they spotted Howard and his brothers, they froze

Then they ran

Fast

They weren’t about to mess with the triplets–not after learning the hard way how tough they were.
