The shock was just too much that Elle could barely stop herself from gaping at what Sebastian had announced. It took all her willpower to maintain her serene expression and stand calmly beside Sebastian, their hands still linked.
She never expected him to do this. She had thought they were going back to confront Kana personally. She had thought Sebastian was going to deal with the matter by questioning everyone who was involved. But then this… oh dear lord! She still could not believe it even if it was happening right before her eyes. Was this even real?!
Tearing her eyes from his stern looking face, Elle looked down at the crowd. Everyone was as shocked, if not more than herself and most of the guests were even gaping. They too, obviously could not believe what they had just heard.
Then the sharp sound of a glass shattering on the marble floor echoed in the currently silent hall.
