Ah, Aino, that little girl, was incredibly delightful.She was even willing to give everything she had to her grandmother.That entire afternoon, Sabrina had a lot to ask her mother, but Aino had constantly been by Aino’s grandmother’s side. It was all the way until late in the night, when Gloria told Aino story after story, did Aino fall asleep.After that, Sabrina pulled her mother’s hand, asking with curiosity and heartache. “Mom, why did you constantly appear close to us? Even though I shouted for you so many times in our area, you never appeared. Why? Do you know how hard it was for me to find you?”Saying that, tears fell from Sabrina’s eyes.Gloria pulled her daughter into her embrace.After a long time, Gloria said, “My daughter! You’re the only daughter I have, so I wanted the best for you.”Wiping away her tears, Gloria spoke the truth and said, “Since I was young, no one has ever given me a second glance. There were only four people who loved me in the world. Your gra
On the other end was Marcus’s calm voice, which said “Sabrina, my grandfather wants to divide up the Shaw family’s assets, including the Shaw residence. My grandfather left eighty percent of the assets to you and Aunt Gloria. My grandfather also wants to set aside a good burial site for my grandaunt, and he even said…”Marcus paused for a moment.He had not wanted to convey all of that to Sabrina.He felt that Sabrina would probably not agree.However, his grandfather did not sleep for the whole night.In just one night, the old man had seemed to age a great deal. That morning, the old man even started to sway in his footsteps.Looking at what happened to his grandfather, Marcus could not help but help his grandfather speak up.Sabrina patiently listened. “Director Shaw, please continue. I’m listening.”“Grandfather means to give my grandaunt, your grandmother, the best burial site possible. He wants to be buried with her after he dies. He said that he wronged grandaunt too muc
He was tall and well-built and physically powerful; he even held many important positions.He loved his own wife too much. He believed that a man who only lived for his wife was a good man. Not only did he love his wife, he even took special care of his wife’s relatives.When his wife had him receive her sister’s daughter at the kindergarten, he went. In the end, he saw that timid child. The child never enjoyed a day of fatherly love before. That child could only look on as her own father held another person’s daughter, looking on as another person’s daughter acted tenderly in his embrace.That child wished for her father’s embrace.She obediently played the piano. A child only three-and-a-half-years-old… Her limbs were so tiny, so small.However, she was incredibly serious when it came to playing the piano, and seemed to make no mistakes.Yet, her father left before she even finished.He did not know how disappointed that child was. At the time, he never thought about how
Marcus and Old Master Shaw both turned around.They saw Gloria holding a walking stick, dressed in a black raincoat as she angrily glared at Old Master Shaw.The old man’s voice trembled. “My daughter…”Gloria clenched her teeth and said, “Do you not understand my words? I was already very courteous to you yesterday. I’ve tolerated you over and over again. For what you did to my mother and me, I had wanted your life. However, your blood flows within me, so I can’t do that!“I let you off easy, but you seem to be taking advantage of that!”Old Master Shaw replied, “I just wanted to see your mother…”“She doesn’t need you!” Gloria clenched her teeth as her tears flowed. “When she was still alive, when she saved you, when she was held captive by you, when she gave birth to me for the sake of her life, those were the times she needed you the most. You never showed any love for your savior then, so there’s no need to now!“Get lost!“Get lost right now! If you don’t, don’t blame me
Gloria’s crying caused Sabrina, who was behind her, to sob as well.She consoled her mother from behind. “Mom, don’t be so sad. Grandmother worried about you her whole life, and she hoped that you could live better during the remainder of your life. You need to cheer up, Mother…”Sabrina always had the impression that her mother was very optimistic.Sabrina knew that all of that had been taught to her by Sabrina’s departed grandmother; it was obvious that her grandmother had been an impressive and knowledgeable person.Her mother had inherited that merit from her grandmother.With Sabrina’s words of consolation, her mother started to wipe away the tears.She looked at Sabrina and Sebastian with gratitude. “Sebastian, Sabbie, I’m thankful that the two of you came with me to visit your grandmother. I’m already very content that the two of you came to see her today.”Sighing, she said, “I can’t stay at your home for too long. I want to go back to your grandmother’s old home to spen
Sabrina was stunned.As she had been so busy settling her grudges with the Lynn family and helping her mother settle in during this period of time that she did not even have time to go to work, let alone keep in contact with her friends.Sabrina’s heart stopped when Jane’s phone seemed to be off for the call.She had an uneasy feeling in her head.She suddenly remembered what happened half a month ago, the morning her mother had appeared. Sabrina had a nightmare.She dreamt that she had fallen off a cliff, and Jane had reached out to help her, but was too late to catch her.At that moment, Sabrina could clearly hear Jane crying in her dream, “Sabrina…”That cry had woken Sabrina up from her dream.Sabrina felt that something bad might have happened when she woke up, so she immediately called Jane.That time, Jane’s phone had been off as well.It was off!That day, Sabrina had planned on going to Alex’s summer house herself to see what the situation was. After all, right befo
Sabrina looked at Yvonne, and Yvonne said with some embarrassment, “Sabrina, you know that Ruth and I are the closest to you. We see you as a big sister. Jane is your friend, and even though we have a good relationship with her as well, it’s not the same.“Furthermore, because we ran to Jane and worked with her to cause a scene at the hospital for that thing related to Selene, we caused Jane quite a bit of trouble. After that, we did not dare to contact her anymore.”Ruth nodded. “That’s right, Jane had actually been against what happened in the hospital that time. It was Yvonne and I who pulled Jane over there. In the end…”She understood now!When Jane had been busying herself that half a month, those two girls!Did not contact Jane at all.However, Sabrina did not blame Ruth and Yvonne too much.After all, friends not contacting each other for half a month was very normal.“What do we do, Sabrina? Why don’t we stop by Alex’s summer house after work to see Jane?” Yvonne sugge
Looking at his cousin’s warm expression, and how gently he was talking to Sabrina, Nigel’s eyeballs almost fell out.He was mistaken earlier.Now, it looked like the others were right.His cousin had changed a lot.He was no longer bloodthirsty, no longer casually killed people, and was no longer cold and ruthless.However, that did not seem right either!The others were not completely right!His cousin did become unbelievably warm, but that was only in front of Sabrina and Aino!In front of others, even in front of Nigel, Sebastian’s cousin, Sebastian was still the same person.He never changed!Furthermore, Nigel could tell that his cousin was showing off!In other words, his cousin had been jealous!Nigel was speechless.He had not eaten yet, but he seemed to have had that whole scene forced down his throat and filling his stomach.He dumbly looked on as his cousin talked on the phone. “What did you say? Alex? You know as well, I’ve been busy with Mother’s matters late
