Remorse After Breaking Up



Chapter 280

The beautiful scenery here made this place seem like a paradise on Earth.

Phaedra Island was quite big. Many people resided in it, but not all of them were practitioners. About 70 percent were ordinary people. This was inevitable because not everyone was suitable for cultivation due to differences in their constitution.

Everyone was arranged to stay in a hotel on the island; each was allocated to a single room. Although the rooms were small, they were sufficient for resting, as they would only be staying there for two or three days.

The auction wouldn't start until tomorrow, so some chose to rest while others explored within the permitted range.

The women were generally more enthusiastic about exploring, especially in places with beautiful scenery.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Zia was one such person.

After arranging the rooms, she invited Sebastian to go out for a walk together.

Sebastian declined because he noticed that the spiritual energy here was extremely abundant. In fact, it was several times denser than at Misty Oak Villa.

A day of cultivation here would be equivalent to several days before. With his urgent desire to improve his strength, he wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.

An hour later, Sebastian was practicing in his room when he suddenly heard an urgent knocking on the door. Upon opening it, he saw Joseph standing anxiously at the door.

Confused, Sebastian asked, "Did something happen?"

"I apologize for the intrusion, Mr. Wilder. I didn't want to disturb you, but I had no choice," Joseph said anxiously.

"Get to the point," Sebastian stated, frowning slightly.

"Zia's been kidnapped," Joseph blurted out.

"What?" Sebastian was shocked. "We're on Phaedra Island! Who would dare do something like that?"

"Some good Samaritan informed me. It seems like she was taken by people from Phaedra Island. What should we do now?" Joseph asked, his face full of anxiety and confusion.

In Ravenview City, he was a top figure who was always calm and composed. But now, he was at a loss. The reason for this change was the shift in power. Previously, he mainly dealt with people of lower status. However, he was now facing people he couldn't afford to offend, especially now that it concerned his beloved daughter.

"Do you know where she was taken?" Sebastian asked.

"The hill behind!"

"What are we waiting for then? Let's go find her," Sebastian announced, immediately leading Joseph to the hill in the back.

The hill in the back was vast, with many paths, so Sebastian and Joseph split up to increase their chances of finding Zia. Sebastian hurried along one of the paths, but before he could run far, a dart suddenly shot out from the bushes, aiming for his back.

Any other person would have found it difficult to react to the sudden attack.

However, Sebastian reacted as if he had eyes on the back of his head. He swiftly dodged the dart and turned around to face the bushes. "Who's there? Show yourself!"

"Quick reflexes." A melodious voice flowed from the bushes, and a graceful woman emerged. "Yvette!" Sebastian immediately recognized her and realized the situation. "You're the one who kidnapped my friend, aren't you?"

Yvette smiled sweetly. "You're quite clever. Yes, I gave that woman to a friend on Phaedra Island. By now, 'it' should have begun. You know what I mean."

Sebastian's body exuded a formidable killing intent. "You're trying to get yourself killed."

Yvette remained unperturbed. "Let's go. I'll take you there. If you hurry, perhaps you can still witness the spectacle."

Sebastian wanted nothing more than to strike her down upon hearing those words. However, he couldn't afford to waste time. He had to endure for now.
