Sebastian looked indifferent and just uttered one word, “No.”
After pausing for a while, he frowned at Aliyah, “Who told you to be here?”
He glanced at Bella with the corner of his eyes.
Bella immediately shuddered with dear and shook her head violently and denied in tears, “It’s not me, Sebastian. I
didn’t tell mom these things. You got to believe in me!”
“Bella didn’t tell me this.” Aliyah spoke up, “If she knew you want her to give up the custody, would she have
foolishly waited for you to hand her these papers? The legal department told me this.”
The legal department finalized all the details in the term and the head of the department was Wilfred, Sebastian’s
uncle.
“Sebastian, you can have fun all you want, but that Annie isn’t a good girl.” Aliyah said indifferently.

Aliyah sneered and didn’t believe his words.
Before she came here, she had learned that this matter deteriorated to this point because Bella was jealous that
Annie sent Sebastian the corn soup.
Now that Sebastian was forcing Bella to give up the custody over a stranger, she can well guess how manipulative
was this Annie.
“I’ve read the news online. Sebastian, you know how influential is the Grants. A divorcee with three kinds would
never be allowed to marry into the Grants.”
Most importantly, those three kids were other man’s children.
Why should the Grants raise other people’s kids? They might be entitled to get a slice of the Grants’ money when
they grew up.
The Grants was powerful and wealthy, but she certainly can’t let three strangers to inherit their money.
“Mother.” Sebastian paused and got grim which was formidable, “I said no.”
Sensing Sebastian’s anger, Aliyah changed the subject.
She then turned to Bella, “Joanna must be raised up by both of you.”
“No.” Sebastian directly declined.
He would never let Bella interfere with Joanna’s life ever again.
“I’m not negotiating with you. This is an order.” Aliyah knitted her eyebrows and yelled.
Sebastian got increasingly fierce and answered firmly, “Nobody can order me.”
Not even his mother.
Aliyah instantly got embarrassed and obviously didn’t expect her own son to defy her orders in public.
Bella was also on the edge.

Now that Aliyah cannot even get Sebastian to change his mind, was she really going to be thrown out by Sebastian
and never get to boss around in Joanna’s name?
While she was thinking about this, Sebastian raised the corner of his mouth and said, “Mother, do you really think I
did this because of Annie?”
Aliyah sneered, “Didn’t you?”
Though Sebastian wasn’t exactly on great terms with Bella, they were amicable.
But he completely changed ever since that Annie showed up.
That Annie really took a bad impact on Sebastian!
Moreover, that Annie reminded Aliyah another woman that she hated.
She reminded her Bonnie who died five years ago.
Aliyah didn’t know why but she found they two similar.
