Chapter 4

At home, Catherine is now lamenting her fate that was destroyed overnight for no apparent reason. William's company suddenly went bankrupt with various serious problems, William was detained until now, their wedding plans were even canceled. Catherine's dream of becoming Mrs. Turner was shattered, she didn't even know how to continue her life with her baby without William.

Emily arrived home in tears, her florist suddenly caught fire after an electrical short circuit. There was nothing Emily could save there, except for Catherine's favorite red rose that only had one stem left.

"Mom! Come here!" Isabelle called.

From outside, Zack came with a box containing his personal belongings that he kept in the office. Zack came with a gloomy face, his steps sluggish with teary eyes while carrying an envelope in one hand. Zack was fired from his job for embezzling company money with some of his co-workers, Zack was a little lucky because he only had to replace the money with his entire pension. But the worst part was that he only received a few dollars from his decades of hard work, which was probably only enough to buy food for three weeks.

Everyone mourned their hardships, but it seemed that trouble was not yet over for the Foster family. A postman came with a letter with no sender's name addressed to Emily, Emily opened the letter slowly but after seeing the contents Emily was immediately angry. Someone had sent several photos of Zack sleeping with young women, proof of purchase of gambling tokens and Zack's total debt, as well as several hotel and club receipts where Zack spent the company's money.

"You son of a bitch! You've been acting like a gentleman all this time but you turned out to be an asshole!" Emily cursed while carrying Zack's baseball stick.

"It's all lies, Emily! Someone's been slandering me and trying to destroy our marriage!"

"You think I'm stupid? You're an asshole! Get out of my sight, I never want to see you again!" Emily threw all of Zack's belongings, after yesterday Catherine threw Sebastian out now it was Emily's turn to throw Zack out.

Catherine was really stressed with all the bad luck that happened in her life, what exactly had happened to her and the people around her? All destroyed without a remainder in a short time, as if someone had planned this all.

"Everything is in order young master, according to your wishes." Luigi said after clearing up the things that had been bothering Sebastian.

Sebastian who was sunbathing in the pool opened his sunglasses, "Everyone, except Isabelle, right?"

"The little girl is safe, it's just that she might be slightly affected."

"Make sure she stays okay, no matter what." Sebastian ordered.

This was just the beginning of the game, Sebastian had more crazy ideas to counter every insult they had ever said to him. Sebastian had prepared a special place of punishment just for Catherine, where she might not be able to show her face in front of everyone anymore.

Several cars entered the mansion's courtyard after they returned from the police station, Andreas looked a little tired and immediately laid his body down by the pool to relieve his fatigue. Andreas hated having to deal with the police, but he was forced to intervene because he didn't want his track record at Turner's company to be traced and get him into legal trouble. He is old and intends to retire, but Sebastian's disappearance for three years has forced him back into his boring routine.

"Sebastian, tonight we must return home. Prepare yourself because I've organized a party to welcome you."

Sebastian turned to Andreas with an indecisive look, "Dad, but my business here is not finished. I can't leave this country now,"

"You just need to go back there for a few days, after that continue what you want to do here." Andreas patted Sebastian's shoulder, he understood that three years of humiliation was not easy.

As the sky began to darken, Sebastian and Andreas took off in a private jet to return to their home country. The view of the city of E from the top of the plane was beautiful, but the city of E caused Sebastian so much pain. Sebastian closed his eyes so he could rest during the journey, but all he could think about was Catherine's face. Sebastian snorted in annoyance, he abandoned his intention to sleep and instead worked during the trip.

"The young master is back!" the guard said at the Belluci mansion's main entrance when he saw Andreas' motorcade arrive.

When Andreas got out along with Sebastian, all the guards and servants immediately lined up neatly and bowed respectfully to him. They were happy that the young master had finally returned home, they felt sorry for Andreas who had to take care of all his business and problems by himself in his old age.

When they arrived in the living room, a young girl came to greet them. The girl, who was the same age as Isabelle, ran to hug Sebastian, the brother she loved and missed the most.

"Tu m'as tellement manqué," she said with teary eyes.

"Moi aussi, Suzzane. Ma plus belle sœur et douce comme une pêche." Suzzane hugged Sebastian tightly after hearing his sweet words.

Suzzane Bellucci was the illegitimate child of Andreas' affair with his female bodyguard, but Sebastian loved her dearly because Suzzane's mother loved Sebastian more than his own biological mother.

"You look a mess, let's go to the salon before the party starts." Suzzane pulled Sebastian into her private salon in the mansion.

A luxurious tuxedo made by a famous fashion designer had been prepared for Sebastian, as well as a hair stylist to change Sebastian's rather messy appearance. Looking at the tuxedo in front of him, Sebastian remembers his shabby tuxedo that was stained by a trash can because of Emily's actions. Sebastian recalled the humiliation and betrayal that night, until he unconsciously gripped the tuxedo in his hands until it was almost broken.

"What are you doing! You almost ruined this tuxedo," Suzzane said sulkily, seeing that her favorite tuxedo that she had chosen for Sebastian looked a little wrinkled.

"Sorry Suzzane, I was just feeling a bit emotional."

Suzzane sighed softly, "Alright, now you better take a shower and dress up as handsome as possible. Show that bitch who the real Sebastian Bellucci is."

Sebastian raised one eyebrow, apparently Suzzane's temperament hadn't changed one bit. Her face looked so innocent but her words were so cruel, Bellucci's blood did flow well in Suzzane. Not wanting to upset Suzzane further, Sebastian finally left to make himself look much better.

Almost an hour had passed, now Sebastian was ready with his new, more authoritative look. Well-organized hair, a clean-shaven beard that made him look much younger and fresher, a black tuxedo that made him look even more charming. Suzzane is stunned by her brother's new look, the man who came in an hour ago looking like a mess now looks like royalty.

Sebastian reached out to Suzzane to invite her into the party hall, now filled with several guests that Andreas had invited to welcome him back. Everyone was scrambling to get his attention, some of the women were also starting to steal glances at each other and try to catch his attention.

Sebastian honestly hated this, hanging out with sycophants who were always trying to get close to the Belluci family, especially him. They are competing to offer their daughters to become Sebastian's wives no matter if they have to be legal wives or mistresses, with the benefits of wealth that will never run out and unlimited power anyone is willing to pawn their pride.

When he became Andrew, all the women rejected him. They did not hesitate to insult him as a loser, a poor man or Andrew the dirt cleaner. Even when he was in love, the woman he loved would not touch him.

A brand-new sports car of the year parked in the courtyard of the Belluci mansion, a woman wearing a sparkling black dress with a sexy cut, entered the party with her confidence high. A tall body with a well-proportioned face, golden blonde hair that made her shine under the spotlights, she was like the main star of the party. Her lips, polished with maroon lipstick, smiled flirtatiously at Sebastian as she winked one eye. Sebastian sighed in annoyance at her arrival, while Suzzane couldn't help but laugh at the frustration on Sebastian's face.

"Huh, that crazy dog came." he grumbled under his breath.
