The next day, Sebastian woke up very early to get ready for his work at at Mr Baker's Company. He would soon be done with the project he has with him, which was his main purpose of coming to Manchester city.
He called Liam over to the living room, before he leaves for the compqny. Liam's face was clear evidence that he just woke up from his slumber. He gruntly dragged his feet to the living room.
"Sebastian what's more important than my sleep?". Liam asked him.
"Get me those documents I gave to you." Sebastian ordered him.
Sebastian had given Liam some of his project documents to keep for him, until he's ready to have them back. Liam went to get them, and he returned back with the documents within few minutes.
Liam handed over to Sebastian, trying to return back to his bedroom to continue his sleep.
"Please stay with me for few minutes." Sebastian said to him.
"Is there anything else you need from me?". Liam asked him.
"I am planning to build my own company after my project with Mr Baker." He opened up.
Liam was very surprised to hear him say that. Sebastian needed someone he could trust with this. Liam looked at him with surprise on his face.
"What about your dad's company?". Liam asked him.
"I need my own company. I want to start my life afresh." Sebastian revealed.
"You should let your family know about this." Liam said to him.
Sebastian nodded his head, keeping silent for some minutes. He took in a deep breath before responding back to Liam. Liam waited for him to say whatever he had in mind.
"My younger brother Oliver, should take over his company. I'm not interested in it at all." Sebastian said bitterly.
"This is very strange Sebastian." Liam replied him, still unsatisfied with his suggestion.
While they were still having the conversation, a document flew out of the numerous documents in Sebastian's hands. Him and Liam looked at the document, as it landed on Sebastian's toe.
Sebastian picked it up, taking a glance.
"Why the paused look?". Liam asked him curiously.
"What's Zoey's birth certificate doing here?". Sebastian questioned Liam surprisedly.
Liam opened his mouth in shock, and he obviously remembered that he had mistakenly joined the document with that of Sebastian's documents out of a hurry. Liam didn't have any answer to give Sebastian at the moment. Sebastian kept staring at him, wearing a weird look.
"I...I don't know about this." Liam stutteredly lied.
"How did it end up with my documents? I know when you're telling a lie." Sebastian asked him again.
Liam felt choked up by Sebastian's question, and he immediately stood up from the couch. He sighed out of tension, looking at Sebastian without saying anything. Sebastian remembered having a past conversation with Zoey, where she told him that some of her documents were missing.
He didn't take it serious then, because he had no clues where they could be. He was now convinced that Liam was the one that stole the document but he wanted to know the reason he did so.
"The documents Zoey was looking for, were stolen by you?". He questioned Liam again.
"Maybe she misplaced them here, one of the days she came around." Liam lied, trying to convince Sebastian.
Sebastian shook his head doubtfully, trying to see if he would bring out the truth from Liam's lips. He gave him a dead stare yet again, before speaking up.
"You were always obsessed with finding her biological father, was that the reason you stole this from her house?". Sebastian asked him another question.
Liam coughed out chokingly, wondering how smart Sebastian was to ask him such question. Liam couldn't look at Sebastian's face again, because he was guilty.
"Yes. I was trying to find her father with this, but I wasn't able to do so. I'm sorry." Liam lied, apologizing to Sebastian.
"You should have just said the truth. I'll go over to her house first, to return this." He said.
...
Sebastian allowed Liam to get away with the wrong he did. He was finally ready to leave. He carried all the documents, entering into his car.
Sebastian drove immediately, heading over to our apartment.
On his way to apartment, Sebastian met with a fatal road accident. A big truck ran over his car accidentally, and he collapsed inside his car on a pool of blood.
People crowded his vehicle, trying to reach out to an emergency ambulance on their various phones.
Some medias were called over to report the accident and they were hoping that by doing so, his family would come to find him.
**At our apartment**
We were all at the living room, and Zoey decided to turn to a news channel. She felt like watching the live news to know what's the latest news happening in our city.
"Shocking." I said to her surprisedly.
"Mum, some days we need to watch the live news channel." She replied me chuckling.
"Zoey's right." Jasmine supported her.
I smirked, fixing my eyes on the television after Zoey changed the channel. We were keenly watching the live news and we found out there was a recent accident at our city, through the news.
"Oh my goodness. There's an accident down our street." Jasmine exclaimed.
"Who could that be?". I asked concernedly.
Zoey's eyes caught up with a glimpse of Sebastian's body that was being carried out by some nurses from inside his car. He was placed on a stretcher. He was bleeding seriously.
"Uncle Sebastian." Zoey screamed out, panting heavily.
"What happened to him?". I and Jasmine asked her anxiously.
"He's the one that had the accident. Take a look at the television." She said, panicking.
Zoey pointed her finger at the television, while we followed the direction of her finger. We finally saw Sebastian on the stretcher. He was being pushed into the trunk of an ambulance. I didn't know why I felt so affected, but I felt the same way Zoey felt when she saw him.
"I'm going to save him. I'm going to save him." Zoey cried out, leaving the living room immediately.
She ran out of the house, heading towards the scene where the accident happened. I went after her, while Jasmine followed me behind.
"Wait Zoey!!." I commanded her.
Zoey stopped, turning her head towards my direction. She was still sobbing. She was obviously in a haste to meet Sebastian.
"Let's go with my car." I said to her.
"Are you being real?". She asked me with a surprised look.
I nodded my head, while she ran towards me in tears. I embraced her tightly, cuddling her in my arms. I took to the garage, opening the front door for her. Zoey entered inside the car, rubbing her hands against the other still thinking about Sebastian.
Jasmine entered inside the back seat, while I also got in and drove immediately.
We reached to the scene, but the ambulance was already gone. Sebastian's vehicle was in a very bad condition. The car was smashed and the windows were broken.
Blood stains filled the driver's seat and those were Sebastian's blood. Zoey stood infront of his vehicle, sobbing. I rested her head on my shoulder, consoling her. I was also hurt by what I saw.
Sebastian was a bad person, but somehow I felt he didn't deserve this bad situation. He was at a point of death and I didn't want Zoey to lose her father at a young age.
