Chapter 510
Before the wedding had even begun, Sebastian and Gina had quietly arrived at Phaedra Island.
Initially, he had planned to disrupt the wedding and take the bride by force. With Bruce having regained his full strength, they could handle Julian, Edwin, and Bradley together. However, after considering the situation, he realized that it might be too risky.
The three families had strength in numbers. If a full-blown battle erupted, it would be nearly impossible to control everyone.
So, Sebastian had devised a foolproof plan, with disguising himself as Flynn being a key part of it. It was certain to surprise everyone.
"You bastard! I'm going to kill you!" Jeremiah was furious. Flynn had slapped him in public, which was a deep humiliation for him.
He charged at Flynn with a roar, and his intent to kill was clear.
"Jeremiah, stop!" Edwin intervened as he held him back.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Dad, let me go! He slapped me in the face! I have to kill him!" Jeremiah shouted. His anger was uncontrollable.
"Jeremiah, the competition is about to start. Focus on the bigger picture," Edwin said, trying to maintain order despite his own anger. If they started infighting now, they might as well forfeit the competition altogether.
"Flynn, you've gone too far. Apologize to Mr. Jeremiah at once!" Bradley scolded harshly, although he was secretly pleased.
The Lynch family had always been arrogant, and seeing Flynn slap Jeremiah was incredibly satisfying. It even gave him a sense of pride.
Sebastian, who was still in disguise, looked at Jeremiah and said, "I'm so sorry. I was too impulsive just now."
But this was no real apology. It was a blatant provocation.
Jeremiah nearly lost it again. But under Edwin's persuasion, he managed to hold back his rage.
Even then, he secretly vowed to find a chance to kill Flynn and settle the score.
Sebastian then turned to Charlotte and said, "Give me your spot in the competition. I believe my strength surpasses yours."
"Are you sure?" Charlotte asked, feeling skeptical.
"I'm very sure," Sebastian replied confidently as he stood with his hands behind his back,
exuding arrogance.
Charlotte was only half-convinced, but she agreed anyway. She knew that she was merely filling in.
After all, she couldn't begin to imagine defeating Gideon, Elsa, or the Holy Maiden of Light, who was rumored to be the strongest among the younger generation in the Western Region.
In her mind, it made little difference whether she competed or her brother did, as the outcome would be the same.
With the participants decided, Bellamy announced, "I now declare that the competition has officially begun. Ulrich, you go first!"
"Yes, sir."
A young man in a red robe stepped forward.
This was Ulrich Yekes. He had a handsome face and blond curly hair. He had an imposing presence and was the youngest cardinal bishop in the Everlight.
The cardinal bishop was a position just below the high priest and the holy maiden. Despite being under 30, he was one of the top candidates to succeed the high priest.
As Ulrich walked into the arena, he stood proudly and asked, "Who will face me first?"
Lorenzo looked at Edwin and the others. "You are the hosts here. Why don't you let one of your people start things off?"
Edwin didn't refuse. Whether they started now or later didn't matter. He turned to Sebastian and said, "Mr. York, how about you go and spar with him?"
Sebastian glanced at Ulrich and scoffed. "Why are you using a sledgehammer to crack a nut? Let someone else handle him. I'll step in when it really counts."
Edwin was speechless. To him, Flynn just seemed too cowardly to fight, so he turned to Cassandra instead. "Ms. Lennon, you go first."
