Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover Chapter 1279

In the end, Sebastian relented for Jake's sake.

Thus, the plan to destroy the other three bases was aborted.

“Mr. Hayes, isn't that too risky? From what I've heard, the ammunition stored in these three bases isway more superior to what we just destroyed. If it ever falls into Eddie's hands, we'll be doomed.”Karl was worried sick when he heard the news.

However, Sebastian kept mum.

His face darkened as he stared at the base they just destroyed.

Karl was stumped.

What is he staring at? It's just a big hole.

Karl followed his gaze.

“Can a submarine fit in the waters below?” Sebastian spoke up as he was hit with a suddenrealization.

“Huh?” Karl was stunned.

“I don't think so. The minimum water depth of most modern submarines is 400 meters. Even thoughwe're at the sea bed, I don't think we're in the deep sea since they're capable of digging a tunnelhere. Why? Are you thinking of making your way there using a submarine?”

“Yes.” Sebastian nodded in confirmation.

Indeed, the seabed was the best route for them to get there since they were being blackmailed byEddie at the moment. However, if submarines won't work, they would need to think harder foralternatives.

Restlessness engulfed Sebastian once again.

It was getting harder for him to keep his cool these days. He would lose his temper and get irritatedvery easily, especially after Felicity's incident at the hospital.

In the end, he gave up and opted to wait for Jake's news.

Meanwhile, Devin, who was at the hospital, had also found out about the unexpected turn of events.He found it hard to believe that they were going to hand the ammunition depot over to Eddie justlike that.

“Did Mr. Sebastian not do anything about it? He's just going to allow Eddie to get away with it?”"Yes. So far there's nothing from him. I've only heard Mr. Sebastian asking Mr. Frost if it's possible tomake their way over with a submarine. Mr. Frost told him no and that was the end of it.”

A member of the special forces reported everything that had happened in detail to Devin.

Devin found it even harder to believe when he heard the news.

Sebastian has no plans?

For real?

Is it because of Jake?

Well, he does look like someone who values friendship even though he appears indifferent. Devincouldn't stand sitting around anymore and left the hospital with his injured lumbar spine.

“Major, are we going to rescue Mr. Chandler?”

"Yes. Sebastian's hands are tied probably because of something Eddie had shown him. I need you toget me the advance team. I need to first pinpoint that old man's location,” Devin said throughgritted teeth.

Hence, he set off to hunt Eddie down after a few minutes of delay.

Sebastian wasn't made aware of Devin's plan since he was still in the tunnel. Nonetheless, he slowlycame back to his senses after getting some rest.

“What time is it now?”

“It's been two hours. Mr. Hayes, are we really just going to sit back and do nothing? I have yet tohear back from Mr. Chandler.”

Karl also felt as if something was off.

He would have blurted out his question if Sebastian didn’t look so tired in the past two hours.Luckily for him, Sebastian stood up right after he finished speaking.

“Yeah. Call Xayden. I need to ask him something.”

"Okay."

Karl quickly pulled out his phone and dialed Oceanic Estate's number.

Sebastian was already reading the military map when Xayden picked up the call after about tenseconds later.

“Is there a way to make these bombs dissolve?” Sebastian asked the first moment the call wentthrough.

“Pfft!”

Xayden wasn't the only one taken by surprise as he spat out the mouthful of water he had justdrank onto the lab table.

Even Karl's eyes twitched and he looked away upon hearing Sebastian's request.

Let the bombs dissolve?

My dear, do you even know what you're talking about? These bombs have a boiling point of 1000degrees Celsius. It's impossible to dissolve them.

For the first time ever, Karl felt as if the Mr. Hayes he had held in the highest regard was merelyhuman.

“N-No, Mr. Hayes, you can't dissolve nuclear energy,” Xayden replied

“So is there any way to dissolve or destroy these bombs in the shortest amount of time? I noticedthat even after I set them alight using the lighter you gave me, the weapons are not completelydestroyed in the waters.”

“That's for sure. The sea water will only crystallize part of the aqueous solution in the lighter andprevent the nuclear reactor core from having a meltdown. You're asking me to do the impossibleright now.”

Xayden explained everything to Sebastian in layman terms through the phone.
