CHAPTER 615: CHAPTER 615: TWO BILLION

When Sebastian Blackwood came in, he saw Claire Crowley holding the little girl, trying to soothe her.

It looked like she genuinely cared for the child.

Claire Crowley turned around, as if just noticing him, and exclaimed with surprise, "Sebastian, you’re here."

"Come hold the little one; she just woke up."

Sebastian Blackwood didn’t move. He just glanced at the little girl indifferently, then said, "Claire, is a billion enough?"

What does he mean?

Claire froze in place. A billion for what?

"Two billion."

Seeing her remain silent, Sebastian Blackwood adjusted his shirt cuff leisurely, continuing with an unruffled tone.

At that moment, Claire suddenly realized.

He wanted to use that two billion to buy off her position as the child’s mother!

Claire felt a chill all over her body, thinking of the scene last night where she saw Sebastian and Ivy Kensington hugging, the whole thing felt utterly ridiculous.

This must be Ivy’s doing!

That bitch!

Clenching her teeth with force, Claire held the little girl and said, "Sebastian, are you joking with me? Why would I need this money?"

Sebastian frowned slightly in impatience.

Claire was playing dumb; she clearly understood what he meant.

Lowering his voice to a frosty tone, the man spoke with a last trace of gentleness, "Two billion, and the entire Crowley family isn’t worth this much."

"And your commercial value as an actress isn’t worth that money either. Surrender the custody of the child, and besides two billion, both the Crowley family and your career will be granted the respective resources."

This was an enormous temptation!

Claire admitted she was somewhat tempted.

But soon, she laughed mockingly, "Sebastian, do you think that being the mother of the child is worth less than two billion?"

She wasn’t a fool!

As long as she could firmly grasp her position as the child’s mother, she could have everything she wanted, without missing those two billion.

Claire was greedy; the immediate benefits in front of her couldn’t satisfy her. What she pursued was a more enduring benefit!

What’s more, with a man like Sebastian Blackwood, who wouldn’t want to have him? As soon as she accepted those two billion, she would indeed no longer have any form of relationship with the man in front of her from now on!

Claire said, "Sebastian, you can’t be so ruthless. The child is my daughter, and no amount of money can sever our blood bond. I will not give up custody of my child!"

She was determined that Sebastian wouldn’t really do anything to her!

Hearing her words, Sebastian’s handsome face quickly darkened, for he knew very well why Claire refused.

The child was only a small part of it, but more importantly, she had set her sights on this globally influential piece of the Blackwood family pie.

She had come this far; how could she bear to let go?

His thin lips curled into a cold arc, and Sebastian said, "Claire, I’ve given you a choice, but if you don’t take it, don’t blame me!"

Claire felt a jolt in her heart, what did that mean?

Come evening, she understood what the man meant.

If she wouldn’t accept the soft approach, then it would be the hard way!

He brought people directly to take the child away from her!

"Sebastian, you can’t take the child away from me, you can’t..."

Claire screamed, her voice breaking, but Sebastian was determined to sever her connection with the child and completely ignored her cries.

Watching the man’s back as he took the child away, Claire’s eyes gradually filled with venom.

Fine!

Sebastian, if you’re willing to go this far for Ivy, then don’t blame me!
