His Eagle Eyes on Me
Chapter 2248

Chapter 2248

The woman in black stared at him with contempt. "I feel like you are here to scam me."

"Ms. Blanche, why don't we sit down and talk? It's so cold out here." Sebastian was shivering.

"I'm not cold. If you want to talk, we will talk here." The woman in black could tell that he was freezing, but she did not care.

"Fine!" Sebastian turned around to face his bodyguard and shouted, "Go buy me a down jacket right now!"

The bodyguard immediately ran off.

"What's going on with Natalie? If she isn't feeling well, why would she ask to meet with me?" grumbled the woman in black.

"Ms. Blanche, I'm not trying to fool you. Something has happened to my sister. We are searching for her, but we haven't found her yet. All we found was her phone," Sebastian said. "My sister might be gone, but, all the same, we want to work with you."

"Work with me? Do you even know the nature of the deal that your sister and I have?"

"We don't, but you can tell me. Whatever my sister offered you, we can offer you double," Sebastian said. "We only want Ivy, and if you can help us find her, whatever you want, we will give."

The woman in black narrowed her eyes slyly as she studied Sebastian's face. It looked like she was considering his offer.

"If I remember correctly, you have no say in the Jennings family!" the woman mocked. "Get your father to talk to me, or there will be no deal."

Sebastian had not expected her to be this arrogant. The last thing he had expected was for everyone to know that he had no power in the Jennings family.

The people around him fawned over him, calling him 'Second Master.' He was shocked at how he had allowed himself to forget his actual status.

"Holly, if you know that I have no say, you should also know that it was my dad who had sent me. Me being here and my dad coming here are the same thing." Sebastian did not want to have to go home only to tell his father that he had failed to resolve the matter on his own. Sebastian wanted his father's praise.

"It's obviously not the same thing. You can promise me the world, but if your dad refuses to deliver, I will get nothing out of this," said the woman, rejecting him right away. "Go home and tell your dad what I said. If he really wants to make a deal with me, he will come here himself. Otherwise, this ends here! I will take this secret to the grave. I don't care if I live or die!"

When she noticed that Sebastian was stunned, she continued, "I didn't even want to remember any of it, and I would have left it had Natalie not been persistent."

"Calm down, Ms. Blanche. I will go back and talk to my dad. The reason he isn't here is because he is old and not as strong as he used to be, not because he doesn't care; otherwise, he would have come here to talk to you himself," said Sebastian.

"Your dad has been taking medication that can keep him young, right? Is that just a rumor?" the woman mocked. "Or is there no one else who can manufacture the medication now that Angela is dead?"

The hostility in her voice rendered Sebastian speechless.

"Ms. Blanche, you don't actually know my dad, right?" He studied her closely, sensing that she resented his father.

The woman chuckled. "A nobody like me obviously wouldn't know someone that high and mighty. But ever since I came to Bridgedale, I have heard plenty of scandals and rumors about him."

"What others say isn't always true. Besides, my dad's private life shouldn't get in the way of our collaboration. He has always been a sincere partner to the people he works with. As you will find out, once you get to know him." Sebastian tried his best to salvage his father's image.

"Sure! It depends on whether or not he wants to meet me in person, then," she said, before pulling out a box of cigarettes. "Want one?"
