When Sebastian Brenand returned to his home once again, he picked up his broken phone and retrieved the SIM card within, and inserted it into another phone. He needed to replace Rachel. To do that, he needed to contact the outside world, but not without a phone.

After inserting the SIM card, he turned on the phone, and it immediately started ringing again.

His mother had sent him a message on WeChat. It was a picture of Rachel Wood tied to a cross with fresh wounds on her body.

Her face pale, Rachel had already passed out.

This scene was like a knife to Sebastian's heart, his mind going blank in an instant.

Sebastian wanted to kill someone.

Right then, his phone rang again. His mother had sent him a voice note.

With trembling hands, he tapped on the screen.

"If you don't want Rachel to be hit again or die by my hands, obey me and meet the lady I want you to meet when the time comes. Don't get any wild ideas. If you don't listen to me, I'll destroy her." She spoke calmly as if she was talking about the weather.

Sebastian never knew his mother could be this evil.

After taking a deep breath, he clutched his phone tightly with trembling hands, his eyes turning red.

He couldn't do anything else apart from fuming helplessly.

He didn't bother replying to his mother. Instead, he walked to the couch weakly and sat down with his phone in hand.

His gaze shifted to Rachel's photo again, his heart twitching painfully.

He was right about Rachel suffering. She must have felt afraid, hopeless, and in a lot of pain.

His parents were terrible people. Nobody could be worse in this world.

like this.

He felt like killing everyone.

He knew that he needed to go along with his parents until Rachel was found.

Otherwise, she might go through even worse torture.

His parents had found his weak spot, so they were doing everything to test his limits.

Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do except for giving in. For the first time in his life, he felt weak.

What kind of man was he if he couldn't even protect his woman?

"Rachel, I'm sorry," he muttered weakly. "I'll try to replace you as soon as I can."

His eyes darted around the room where things were still a mess.

Although it was warm in the house, Sebastian felt cold and empty without Rachel by his side.

He wasn't used to her absence and found himself missing her very much.
