You, Me And Our Genius Twins Chapter 44

Chapter 44 Two-Faced Sebastian

Nigel wasn’t able to give Phoebe love, but he gave her money, status, and the title of the woman of the Taylor Family… He practically gave her everything that he could afford to give. Throughout these years, he had been more lenient and compromising with his wife than he had been with his sons. What was all of it for?

It was all because the Taylors owed Bryan his life! I’ve been returning this favor for so many years now. I think it’s about time for it to all be over, right? I’ve given Phoebe so much. If she had a conscience, then she wouldn’t bring up the oath I made on Bryan’s deathbed all the time. She’s still the same rude, vulgar, and uneducated woman from last time. Even now, I’m still disgusted by her.

“I don’t care. You guys have to save me!” Phoebe didn’t realize how ill and weak Nigel looked and continued to whine about her situation. “Nigel, Dan, please save me and get me out of here! I’m my father’s only daughter. If he knew that I’m being locked in prison, he wouldn’t be able to rest in peace!”

“I’ll go look for Madeline!” Dan, who had been quiet for a while, finally got to his feet before walking toward the door. “Even if I have to get on my knees, I’ll make sure she helps you to get out of here.”

“Dan…” Nigel ran after him. Phoebe wanted to go out too, but the wardens quickly grabbed her arms. “You have to save me, Dan! Dan…” Phoebe wailed in the direction of the room entrance. Dan charged out of the detention center before calling Madeline’s phone with shaky hands. She didn’t pick up the call, so he dropped her a text. ‘Where are you, Madeline? I want to see you. I want to see you right now!’

Meanwhile, Madeline and Sebastian had gone to buy presents for their sons and were on the way back to the Hart Residence. When Madeline saw the text from Dan, she let out a sigh. Sebastian chuckled after seeing the text. “We’ve been walking around for a while now. Let’s find a spot to sit and get some drinks,” he suggested.

She tilted her head to the side to stare at him. “Will you tell Dan all about Bryan’s matters?”

“It’ll depend on the vibe later,” Sebastian said with an elegant smirk. “I’ll consider it if the atmosphere is decent.”

Madeline could only chuckle. Is he sure that he’s going to look at the vibe during our talk? Isn’t he just going to find the best way to hurt my uncle and cousin?

There was a private clubhouse called Rabbit’s Den nearby them, so Madeline sent the address to Dan before she visited the clubhouse with Sebastian. Both of them got a VIP room and ordered some snacks and drinks for themselves while they waited for Dan. About 20 minutes later, when Madeline finished her drink, Dan knocked on the door.

Madeline stood up to greet him, but he simply walked over to her without uttering a single word. Thump! He fell onto his knees right in front of her. She stumbled backward as she was rather taken aback by his actions. “What’s going on, Dan?” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“I’m begging you, Madeline. Please set Phoebe free!” Dan knelt on the ground, his face pale and his head lowered. “I know it’s all Phoebe’s fault. However, since her father saved my life, and since I saved your life, could you please just let her go this one time? Just this once!”

Sebastian stood up and walked over to Madeline’s side, his shoulder only inches away from hers. Then, he lowered his gaze to stare at the man on his knees. “You sure are doing a lot just to help Phoebe out!” he uttered with a smirk.

“Her father is the reason I’m alive!” Dan gritted his teeth as he hung his head low. “If it weren’t for her father, I would’ve been dead. I have the duty to save her since I owe her father my life! So… Please let Phoebe go, Madeline!” Dan pressed his palms on the ground before lowering his forehead to bow to Madeline.

Thunk! He smashed his forehead against the concrete floor. “Stop it, Dan…” Madeline lowered herself to help him up. Sebastian chuckled. “I can guess what he’s going to say next. He’s probably going to say that he won’t stand up until you agree to his request.”

Dan’s face had been pale at first, but it turned red after he heard Sebastian’s words. However, he couldn’t be bothered by such matters at that point, so he continued to press his forehead against the ground. He gritted his teeth and tried his best to ignore the shame he felt. “Yes! That’s precisely what I was about to say! If you don’t agree, then I’ll continue kneeling here until you say yes!”

“I told your Dad about this…” Sebastian smirked while gazing at Dan with a pleased expression. “Madeline doesn’t have a say in this. I’m the one you should be begging.”

“Fine. I’m begging you!” Dan hissed through gritted teeth. “Please set Phoebe free, Mr. Hart! As long as you’re willing to set her free, I’ll do anything you want me to do, as long as I’m capable of doing it!”

Sebastian raised his eyebrows. “If that’s the case… Well, I just realized that I do have something I need your help with.”

A hopeful look formed in Dan’s eyes as he quickly looked up at Sebastian. “What is it? I’ll do it as long as it’s something I’m capable of doing!”

Sebastian chuckled. “Well, I don’t like forcing people to do things that are beyond their power, so whatever I’m talking about is definitely achievable as long as you’re willing to do it!”

Dan’s insides were burning with rage—he was so furious that he felt like he was about to erupt. I’m already on my knees. How dare he say that he doesn’t like forcing people to do things? This guy is so shameless!

Sebastian stopped talking at that point, and Dan was left hanging as he knelt on his knees and waited for Sebastian to continue. This only made Dan angrier. Sebastian is simply too much! But I can’t do anything about it since I’m the one begging him for a favor.

“It’s simple,” Sebastian said as he gave Madeline a look. Then, he bent down to speak to Dan. “From today onward, I want you to forget about the fact that you had once saved Madeline’s life. I don’t want you to ever bring up this matter for the rest of your life. In other words, Madeline will no longer be indebted to you for saving her life if I set Phoebe free…” Sebastian glared at Dan. “I’m doing this for your own good as well. It really makes you look bad when you keep expecting others to repay you for the things you’ve done!”

Dan was about to lose his temper at this point. His chest was boiling, and his face was drained of all color. What Dan said was the truth—he had truly saved Madeline, and Madeline wouldn’t have survived if it weren’t for him. Dan was the one who had given her a second chance to live, and she wouldn’t exist right then if Dan wasn’t around. Technically, Dan was the one who had given her everything, so it was natural for Madeline to repay him. Is there anything wrong with me expecting her to do something in return?

However, he wasn’t about to argue with Sebastian right then. There were tons of ways he could refute Sebastian’s words, but Dan didn’t utter a single thing. He was worried that Sebastian would change his mind and not let Phoebe go. So, he gritted his teeth and nodded. “Okay. I agree! As long as you let Phoebe go, I’ll forget all about how I saved Madeline’s life. I won’t talk about it from now on!”
