Can You Mend My Broken Heart?-Chapter 443: Digging up the dirt - 2

After disconnecting the call, Sebastian closed his eyes, trying to suppress the burning pain inside of his heart.

Even though Sebastian was his brother, due to the happenings of the past, they could never reconcile. They barely tolerated each other's company. They had turned worse than acquaintances who never met even for Christmas or Fourth of July.

As his brother was linked to him by blood, no matter what, he couldn't cut him like a poisoned limb. He couldn't discard him out of life, because of the heavy debt. The debt that always weighed him down. The debt which had sealed his mouth forever and bonded his hands together, rendering him all helpless.

He drained the glass of water and then went to his desk. Taking a deep breath he pulled the desk drawer and took out the framed picture of his beloved and sighed.

"See what days I have to live to see."

"If you are still there and you can see what I am dealing with then just give me a sign. Anything. Anything to tell me I am doing ok. Tell me that I am taking the right path. I do not care what the world says, I do not care how bad my image becomes, I just want him to be ok. I want him to have it all. Why can't he have what is mine? After all, I did everything for him. Whatever is mine is his."

Saying that his voice almost broke.

He felt a sudden heaviness in his heart and slumped into a chair nearby.

There was a knock on his door and he turned to find David outside his study.

He took a deep breath to calm his frayed nerves and said,

"Come inside David." free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐oｍ

"What happened Mr. Walker? You do not look so well."

"Nothing !!! Did you get the file?"

"Yes, here it is !!!"

Saying that David handed over the file in which Sebastian had asked David to get Raymond's signature.

"Did he know?"

"He had no clue. He is still happy with his own plans."

Sebastian nodded and looking up at David he said,

"I knew I could always count on you no matter what happened. You have really shown me what accountability stands for."

Saying that Sebastian smiled looking at David.

David looked at him and then said,

"My loyalties are still with Mr. Raymond. I just got his signatures because right now he doesn't know the amount of power that this single file will give him. Maybe once he has an idea, he will not let it go. That's the one and only reason why I tricked him into signing this file, Mr. Sebastian."

"What do you mean David?"

"What I mean is, I am done playing all the games. I am done with batting for both the sides. I have always been loyal to Mr. Raymond. So this is the last time I am helping you with anything becasue I know this will help him in return. So I guess it will be better than we severe any and all the ties that we have."

"What is wrong with you David?"

"Nothing is wrong Mr. Walker. It's you and your plans and plottings which is wrong and I am sick of doing your bidding. That's all."

Saying that David stormed out of the room.

Unable to believe what had happened, Sebastian stayed put in his chair.

David had always been his go-to handler. So when he secluded himself from his shadow, it was unbearable for Sebastian. Like someone took away a vital organ from his body.

His eyes turned back to the picture.

He looked at the woman all lovingly with tears in his eyes and said,

"Now do you see, what all is happening?"

"Do you ROSE ?"
