Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 429

Sebastian looked down at the tablet in Sean's hand. "Sir, those thugs who tried to harass Ms. Sanders last night were paid to do it. But they're refusing to say who hired them."

"The four of them are in custody now. Ms. Sanders and Susan have refused to settle."

"Since no real harm was done, they'll probably be released after a short detention."

Sebastian's eyes darkened. "Investigate their backgrounds and check their bank account transactions."

Sean nodded. "Got it."

Then, Sean told Sebastian what had happened at the restaurant the previous night.

After listening, Sebastian frowned slightly. "You think Joanna fell on purpose?"

"It was deliberate. I was standing nearby. She's pulled stunts like that many times before."

Sebastian didn't say anything. "I'm going for a walk. You go prepare the boat," he said, his voice heavy.

Sebastian walked away with steady steps. Sean watched his imposing back, a little confused.

That's it?

But he understood. Sebastian probably didn't want to hear about it, especially since he himself had been one of the fools who fell for her act.

Sean looked at the breakfast in his hand and hurried after him. "Sir, you haven't had breakfast yet. You need to eat, or your stomach problems will act up again."

"It's very painful when it flares up."

Sean caught up to him, and Sebastian said, "Sean, you're the only person I can trust."

And with those words, Sean was once again ready to go through hell for him.

Those two words—"I trust"—were enough to make him risk his life for the man.

Sebastian turned, took the breakfast from his hand, and sat down on a nearby wooden bench. He gestured to the space next to him. "Sit down and eat with me. The view here is nice."

Sean sat down, and they each ate a container of soup.
