Chapter 677
Finally, Sullivan spilled the beans.
He figured Sebastian was a good listener, the kind who wouldn't freak out, feel grossed out, or get scared after hearing it all. Sebastian kept his cool through it all.
He mentioned how the Henry family used to be big shots in B City, only to have a major scandal blow up in their faces later.
It was a story involving three generations of the Henry family and one woman.
The woman was a knockout, stumbled upon and brought home by the Henrys. From then on, the men of the Henry family went gaga over her.
Sullivan didn't even know who his father was, with his mother living a life no better than a beast.
In her youth, her beauty won her everyone's affection.
But as age crept in, she started to show her years and suffered endless humiliation and torment.
In the end, this lowly woman was abused by the men and tormented by the women of the house, dying in such a pathetic state that she barely seemed human. Sullivan saw it all, which was a nightmare he could never wipe from his memory.
The entire family eventually perished in a huge fire set by Rebecca. Before the fire broke out, all the Henrys were trapped in the living room.
Eventually, everyone was burned alive. Overnight, the Henry family was wiped out, with no one knowing who had done it.
Only Sullivan knew it was all Rebecca's doing at his request.
The first time Rebecca laid eyes on Sullivan, she was taken aback by his good looks. Young Sullivan looked like a delicate doll.
Without much thought, she simply
said, "I help you, but you have to be my slave. From now on, you only follow my orders. Deal?"

Without hesitation, Sullivan dropped to one knee, looked at her with reverence, and called her his master.
Rebecca was brimming with satisfaction, her smile as sweet as a kid who just got a piece of candy. The next day, news broke in B City that the Henry family was wiped out, and Sullivan disappeared.
Sebastian quietly listened to all this while applying ointment on Sullivan's back.
After spilling it all, Sullivan suddenly laughed, "So, Mr. Ingram, I was really envious of you when I first met you."
Sebastian said, "There's nothing to be envious of."
"At least back then, you were someone to be envied."
Sebastian thought back to his
childhood, when Julia hadn't
abandoned his father, and his fol
was still alive. Back then, he was a very happy kid.
But having had it all made losing it that much more painful.
Sullivan was different; he'd never had anything. So, he always indifferent, as if he had no anything in the world.

Perhaps his only purpose in life was to be a good slave for Rebecca.
"Is the ointment all rubbed in? Got any bandages?" Sebastian suddenly asked.
"They're in the first aid kit."
Sebastian glanced at the first aid kit, skillfully took out bandages, and wrapped Sullivan's entire back like a mummy.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Finally, he reminded Sullivan, "If you can, you should really get checked out at a hospital."
