"But Ms. Snider...you doesn't exactly dig me." "Like or not, does it matter? The daughter of the Snider family, she's born to serve the family." "Doa favor this time. I'll owe you one!" "How should I help you, Mr. Ingram?" "You go out in a bit and make a racket. Say I bolted. They will cin to nab me, and I'll jump down from upstairs and make a run for it." Caroline Snider's eyes widened in surprise. "Won't you break something?" "I've been jumping from this height since I was a teenager. It's all good, as long as Ms. Snider is willing to play ball with me." Caroline Snider took a deep breath and said, "Alright... I'll play ball with you, and you don't oweanything... After all, it was you who ran away. Even if my family finds out, they can't blme. So, should I go out and shout now?" "In a minute..." "Okay." When Sebastian jumped off the second floor, his mind started to clear up a bit.
All the security guards at hwent in to nab him; the entire Ingram family was being searched by his grandfather's men.
The guard post was much more relaxed.
Sebastian slipped away; it was smooth sailing.

Sebastian's dedicated driver was waiting in the car at the entrance of the Ingram family.
Seeing Sebastian stumbling out, he jumped out of the car in shock and said, "Boss, what's going on?" "Helpinto the car, and then let's get out of here!" "Yes!" Soon, the car disappeared from the driveway of the Ingram family.
Jaxon found out that Sebastian had run off later and was cursing till midnight.
He actually ran off.
In a dark alley, in a black luxury car.
Stephanie was screaming with red eyes, "Jeffrey Perez, when will you ever stop?" "Oh, Stephanie is finally upset... Tellwhere Ashley is, and I'll let you go! Leave now, and you can stil make it for Sebastian's birthday." "I refuse! If you dare, stay here withall night and see if I'll tell you!" Such a stubborn girl! Suddenly, the girl's phone rang again.
Jeffrey Perez waved the phone screen at her and said, "Look, Sebastian's calling again... Are you sure you're not going to answer this time?" "Bastard, of course, he's worried since I've been gone so long." "Then, should I answer it for you and tell him where you are?" "You dare! He'll never let you off the hook if he finds out you're holdinghostage!" If it weren't for the driver also being held hostage, she would have fought this guy a long tago.
The driver had always been good to her; it wouldn't be fair if he got hurt because of her! Stephanie was really about to be pissed off.
She never thought that Jeffrey Perez would actually answer the call.

And he had the audacity to say, "Sebastian, Stephanie's life is in my hands; tellwhere Ashley is right now, or you'll regret it!" On the other end of the line,
Sebastian was slightly taken aback. If it were usual, he would definitely be angry and want to teach Jeffrey Perez a lesson. But his situation was very special at the moment.
He didn't know how long he could stay rational.
He didn't have the patience to waste words with Jeffrey Perez.
"I'll take you to see Ashley and your daughter myself tomorrow. Right now, immediately, take Stephanie back to her own home; she knows the address!" Jeffrey Perez was surprised and asked, "Sebastian, are you serious?"
