Remorse After Breaking Up (Sebastian) novel Chapter 1189

Sebastian didn't want to start trouble, but that didn't mean that he feared it. Damir's disrespectful words and attempt to strike him pushed Sebastian beyond his limits.

Damir was so furious he could barely contain himself, and his gaze burned with rage as he looked at Sebastian. However, he gradually calmed down as he realized that this man was far stronger than he was, leaving him at a disadvantage.

"You actually dare to strike someone in the city? I'll call the enforcers right now! When they're through with you, you'll be lucky to get out alive!" Damir threatened while preparing to shout for help.

Sebastian's face showed nothing but contempt. "You were the one who tried to hit me first. I merely defended myself. Even if the enforcers show up, it's just a case of mutual combat."

"Oh? And who saw me try to hit you?" Damir asked while glaring menacingly at the people around them. The bystanders immediately stepped back, avoiding his gaze. Damir was a well-known regular in Amaris City and a renowned expert in stone betting, and most people had no desire to cross him.

"Then who will testify that I struck you?" Sebastian retorted as he glanced at the crowd. They likewise averted their eyes, sensing Sebastian's strength, which appeared to surpass Damir's. Since he was unfazed by Damir, he could well be from one of the Sacred Grounds, so none of them wanted to get involved.

"We saw it. We can testify!" Suddenly, Finn, Leroy, and Tucker stepped forward from the crowd.

Finn approached Sebastian, sneering. "We all saw you hit Mr. Sabalja. Go ahead, call the enforcers, Mr. Sabalja, we'll back you up."

Their expressions were filled with amusement. They had recognized Sebastian's face as unfamiliar. Considering that neither Damir nor they recognized him, figured he was probably just a member of some noble family—certainly not from either the Violetta Sacred Ground, or the nearby Gaudium Sacred Ground.

To ordinary people, members of noble families were untouchable, but they were nothing special to those from the Sacred Grounds.

"Thank you, gentlemen," Damir said while clasping his hands in gratitude. He then turned to Sebastian with a cold smile. "Now, what do you have to say for yourself?"

"Mr. Tawny, it was him! Hurry up and arrest him!" Damir said while moving close to Blaine Tawny and discreetly slipping a storage ring into his hand.

Blaine understood instantly. He turned to Sebastian, and shouted, "How dare you strike someone? Bold move! Arrest him!"

At Blaine's command, the enforcers immediately seized Sebastian's arms and shoulders.

Sebastian frowned. He could easily handle a few enforcers given his strength, but resisting would be seen as directly challenging the city lord's authority.

Damir, who looked visibly smug, leaned in close and whispered, "Just wait until we're at the enforcement hall. I'll make sure you'd rather be dead than alive."
