Chapter 450 Unwanted Ties
The butler blocked the doorway. “Mr. Jonathan, Ms. Ste doesn’t wish to see you. Please leave.”
“Move.” Jonathan barked, his voice brimming with fury.
s
He had waited far too long in Seats Cove. The bitter wind and icy snow had only fueled his temper. Now that he knew Ste had left Seats Cove, how could he not go wild trying to see her?
The butler, seeing his aggression, didn’t hold back either. “If you won’t show respect, Mr. Jonathan, don’t me me for doing the same.”
“You’re threatening me? I’m here to see my sister! Who do you think you are to block me?”
That one sentence-<i>“</i><i>don’t </i><i>me </i><b><i>me</i></b>“-set Jonathan offpletely.
He was already at the edge, unable to <b>see </b>Ste, and ready to snap.
The butler narrowed his eyes and calmly reminded him, “Mind your words, Mr. Jonathan. Ms. Ste is not your sister. If you’re going to im kin, I suggest you make sure you’re at the right door.”
Jonathan: “What do you mean ‘wrong door‘? She’s Ste—”
“She is a daughter of the Luke family. Mr. Jonathan, are you sure you want to im kinship here, at <b><i>our </i></b>door?”
The butler’s tone was no longer just a warning–it was a threat.
Jonathan froze. “…!”
To im kin at the Luke family’s door? Who would dare?
The Luke family was not a name you dragged into anything lightly. But Ste…
The moment he remembered she had grown up in the Luke family, his breathing turned even more erratic.
There was no way he’d dare involve the Luke family. But with Susan currently locked up, Jonathan had no choice but to hold back his anger. “Just let me see her–just once.”
He had already heard that Ste was flying back to Falvaria tonight.
The Reed family matter was at a boiling point. If she left for Falvaria now, who knew when she’d be back?
And the Reed family situation couldn’t wait.
The butler replied, “You no longer have any connection to her. There’s no reason to see her <i>again</i>.”
To see her required a rtionship. Without one, there was no need.
Jonathan snapped, “But this is urgent. I know she’s with the Luke family now, but you can’t just keep me from seeing her.”
He didn’t dare challenge the Luke family–but he <i>had </i>to see Ste.
When the butler continued to block the way, Jonathan lost it.
“You–move! You don’t have the right to stop me!”
He might not go against the Luke family, but this old man? Just a servant?
Jonathan had never been treated like this in his life.
The butler said coolly, “Mr. Jonathan.”
“Get out of my way!”
He roared.

But the next second, there <b>was </b>a loud bang, followed by <b>a </b>crack. Something had shattered.
And then came Jonathan’s scream: “Ahhh-!”
Inside the room, Ste and Rianne exchanged <b>a </b>nce.
Ste, calm as ever, said, “Let’s nap a bit.”
s
Once they woke up, they’d be boarding the flight to Falvaria–and all these annoying people would be left behind for good.
Rianne looked at Ste, then toward the closed hospital room door.
She had no idea what exactly <b>was </b>happening outside, but Jonathan’s pained grunts kepting through the walls…
Judging by the sounds, it didn’t seem like he was getting off easy.
He was groaning, asionally crying out Ste’s name.
But inside the room, Ste had already pulled out her phone and started ying a mobile shooter game.
Gunshots sted from the game–<i>bang</i><i>, </i><i>bang</i><i>, </i><i>bang</i>pletely drowning out everything happening outside.
Rianne: “You’re seriously ruthless<b>.</b>”
If Jonathan saw Ste casually ying a game while he was out there howling, he’d probably cough up blood.
Outside the door, Jonathan’s wails didn’t stop.
Inside, Ste was deep inbat, eyes glued to her phone.
When Abraham arrived, Jonathan had already been escorted off the premises by the butler–rather violently.
He wasn’t alone. Tempest hade with him.
Tempest didn’t look good.
The butler reported everything to Abraham, finishing with a sheepish, “Apologies. I might’ve gone a bit too far.”
Jonathan had tried to cling to Ste again, so of course he hadn’t shown him any mercy.
That said, the butler knew Abraham had been giving Jonathan the cold shoulder for a while now.
Abraham asked, “Didn’t he already break his arm?”
He still had the nerve to brawl with the butler? Jonathan must have a freakishly high pain tolerance.
The butler nodded. “It was broken. So maybe I was bullying him a little?”
Abraham let out augh.
He didn’t respond to the butler’s yful remark.
Then, turning to Tempest behind him, he said, “You’ve got ten minutes to make her stay on her own. If not…”
He didn’t finish the sentence.
Tempest didn’t want to let Rianne leave.
But if Ste had decided to take someone with her–and that person didn’t <i>choose </i>to stay–then there was no question: that person was leaving with her.
