When Sasha returned home at night, she told Sebastian about it.
“Sebby, do you think that she’s asking these questions because she’s wary of us? Only a short while has passed
since we helped Silas secure his position. Are they that eager to take action already?”
Sasha was still furious when she mentioned it.
Sebastian’s gaze turned cold.
However, he did not lose his temper like how Sasha did. It was as if he had already expected this to happen.
“No one dislikes power. Now that he is no longer under the control of those people, he naturally doesn’t want me to
stand in his way. It’s normal that he’ll ask his wife to sound you out.”
“Huh?”
Sasha widened her eyes. “Are you saying that… Silas was part of them?”
Sebastian nodded. “If he wasn’t, do you think he could’ve secured his current position? Also, when I passed the
evidence to him, did he show any mercy?”
Sasha was speechless.
He did not!
No one was spared during the massive purge that day.
Sasha did not say anything else. For some reason, she started to feel worried. If it was not for the fact that they had
to wait for Devin and Sabrina to return, she wanted to persuade Sebastian to leave this place.

After Christmas, days went by quickly, and it was soon New Year’s Eve.
Jonathan was quite delighted. The Jadeson residence had never been so lively during New Year’s Eve, with
Sebastian, Sasha, and their three adorable children keeping him company. It was rare for the family to have such a
reunion.
“Old Mr. Jadeson, should we invite the Jadesons in The Ataraxy and Gossamer Creek for New Year’s Eve?” asked
Tony when he went to Jonathan’s study on the morning of New Year’s Eve.
According to the tradition, everyone in the Jadeson family would be reunited on New Year’s Eve. They would come
to Oceanic Estate for a meal together.
However, The Ataraxy had lost a lot of people that year. The only ones remaining were Colton’s family, and they
were not even part of the Jadesons. It was the same situation for Gossamer Creek. After Janice died, her son,
Kingston, was still nowhere to be found.
Jonathan’s initial good mood dimmed gradually.
“Forget it. We’ll just celebrate New Year’s Eve with just the few of us here. Tell the kitchen to prepare a scrumptious
banquet. Also, prepare some wrapping papers for me. I’d like to give the children gifts.”
“Yes, Old Mr. Jadeson.”
Tony then left to carry out his orders.
At that moment, Vivian was already running around the garden happily. She was wearing a red dress, with two cute
little buns on her head braided by Wendy.
When she ran around, the housemaids could not help but shower her with gifts.
“Come here, Vivi! I have a huge gift for you.”
“Okay!”
The eight-year-old girl sprinted over quickly.
By the time Sasha finished preparing the feast for New Year’s Eve and walked out of the kitchen, Vivian’s arms
were already stuffed with gifts.
“Mommy, look! I received so many gifts. When the guests come, Ian, Matt, and I will give some gifts to their
children too!”
“Guests?”
Sasha was stunned.
“We don’t have any guests today. It’s New Year’s Eve.”
“There is! My godmother told me she would visit me with kids!” replied Vivian firmly.
Sasha was stunned.
Godmother? Is she talking about Sophie?
That realization caused her brows to knit together. She did not like outsiders disturbing them at such a time,
especially Sophie.
Like Vivian had said, Sophie arrived just before the feast, much to Sasha’s dismay. This time, she was not alone—

Two other families had come too.
“Wow! Aunt Sophie, Lily, and the others are here!”
A child like Vivian knew nothing. After seeing her friends, she ran over excitedly and dragged them out to play.
Standing behind the adults, Ian and Matteo wore grim expressions on their faces when they witnessed this scene.
“How does Vivi know that they’re coming
?”
“When both of you went out the previous time?” Ian, the taciturn boy, asked coldly.
When Matteo heard it, his expression darkened too. Despite his usual cheerful self, he felt furious upon seeing
someone take advantage of his sister.
Then, he turned around and walked over.
Ian glanced at him but did not follow along. Instead, he went to Vivian’s room. After finding her smartwatch, he
deleted all of the applications inside.
Since the guests had already arrived, Sasha and the rest had no choice but to entertain them.
After all, they could not possibly ignore the President and the First Lady.
“I’m sorry that we didn’t inform you before coming here, Old Mr. Jadeson. I heard Sophie saying that you could
already walk around, so I wanted to visit you. I’ll be leaving Jadeborough tomorrow,” explained Silas as he
approached Jonathan.
