"I don't know!" Sabrina said impatiently. She was still irritated about the phone call Lori was on earlier."Thank you, Sabrina! Yvonne finally made up with me!" Marcus grinned innocently.Relieved, Sabrina smiled. "Congratulations, Cousin Marcus, be good to Yvonne. She is a good girl with no dramas or schemes, just a very bright and cheerful girl.""I know, Sabbie. I know," Marcus reassured, still extremely excited.Sabrina had wanted to ask him if he was going to have lunch with Lori, but when she thought about it, she realized she had no right to ask him about it. She changed the subject. "It seems like Ruth and I won't be able to have lunch with Yvonne today. I'm guessing that the two of you are having lunch together, right?""Of course!""Let's go, then, we should get to work."For the rest of the morning, Sabrina was so caught up with work that she barely even had the time to take a sip of water. It wasn't until noon that Ruth said to her, "Stop drawing, Sabrina. You are
Three women were all it took to have fun. They ordered tuna sushi, mango cheese sushi, and shrimp sushi with three little bottles of mild sake. That afternoon, the three chatted while sipping on their sake and that had been fun enough."Now all that's missing is Jane," Yvonne said."I'm not sure if Ryan's uncle will ever find Aunt Jane again. I miss her, too. If Aunt Jane can't marry into the Poole family and I have to do it alone, a little firecracker like me will still be scared.""He didn't find anything this time. I feel like Jane might not want to come back. Otherwise, she wouldn't have hidden from Alex over and over again," Sabrina commented, sounding as though she was relieved.Both Yvonne and Ruth looked at her and Yvonne asked, "Sabrina, didn't you say that Jane is pregnant? What is she going to do if she doesn't come back?""There are plenty of great men out there, so she doesn't have to settle with Alex." Sabrina grinned. She paused for a moment before continuing, "Jane
Sabrina froze. "Which woman?"Marcus immediately explained. "Sabbie, this is my fault. That… That cousin of mine, Lori… She works for a finance firm. She somehow managed to convince my dad, your uncle.""..."She was instantly displeased as soon as she heard Lori's name."I don't know what she told my dad, but my dad gave her my business card. She then took my business card with her and went to the Ford Group, saying something about discussing investments.""..." Sabrina stormed out at the speed of lightning at his words."Sabrina, Sabrina!" Yvonne called out after her.Sabrina had already arrived by the entrance. She looked back and said to Yvonne and Ruth, "Help me inform the office that I need half a day off!"After that, she disappeared. She caught a taxi and went straight to the Ford Group. Sabrina had always wanted to go to Sebastian's company. However, though she was the real Mrs. Ford that Sebastian had already made a public announcement about, she knew nothing about th
The receptionist nodded. "Okay!"Just as the two were gossiping, Sabrina had pushed on further. Her heels hit against the floor in a steady, slow and rhythmic pace that sounded like the steps of a woman who worked in high management with considerable power within the Ford Group.Footsteps that sounded like that had Lori, who was sitting in Sebastian's office at the time, feel even smugger than ever. She could tell that a female employee was walking toward Sebastian’s office and, judging from the sound of it, the female employee must have a high position. Announcing her presence to a female employee at the appropriate time was exactly what Lori had planned for."Director Ford, you have studied my proposal for over an hour now. Shouldn't you give me a precise answer by now?" Lori sat across Sebastian with her torso leaning forward, and the deep V-neck of her top became even more revealing.She did not look like this when she first came in. She came in with a seersucker scarf wrapped
"Who-who are you?? Director Ford, Director Ford, what's going on??! Ah…!" Lori was in excruciating pain from her hair being pulled at and she did not have the time to even find out who was doing it. She could only pretend to be calm and resist. "Who are you? How could you be so reckless? You… Director Ford…"Sabrina clenched her grip on Lori's hair and, because her heels were too tall for her to walk easily, she went ahead and kicked them off outside the door of Sebastian’s office. Even so, the bare-footed Sabrina was still slightly taller than Lori. Therefore, when she held onto Lori's hair and dragged her out, Lori could not resist but to simply think of a way to beg for Sabrina's mercy while she was in pain. Just like that, Sabrina continued to drag her out."Woman, I don't usually come to my husband's office because I didn't have a reason to! And today, you gave me the perfect chance to make a scene. I'm going to drag you all the way out to the gate from my husband's office! I wa
"Fine, you won't admit it," Sabrina sneered and continued, "Lori Gibson! You found my daughter's kindergarten and enrolled your daughter, and came into contact with me ahead of time. You quietly planned and established your cold and distant facade in front of me so that you would leave a good impression on me because you think that I like the cool loner type like you, isn't that right?""What… What are you talking about? I don't understand a word you are saying! Please let me go! Your action is going to affect Director Ford's image in the company! Please let go! You are acting like a crazy woman!"Sabrina sneered, "You are in no place to call me crazy! Lori, the scheme that you planned out is simply a joke!"Sabrina had already dragged Lori all the way to the hall in front of the front desk at the time. The female employee from earlier who was waiting for drama had not thought that it would happen so soon and was gaping at the scene.Sabrina tossed her aside and Lori immediately st
"..." Lori gaped at the sight. Her eyes widened to the point that it looked as though her eyeballs would pop out of her sockets at any moment. At the time, she even forgot about the fact that she was still sitting on the ground with a huge possibility of whatever was inside her skirt exposed.All employees of the Ford Group were also dumbfounded at what they saw. Meanwhile, Sebastian was not at all shy of the attention as he lowered himself to place the heels he was holding in his hand in front of Sabrina. He leaned his shoulder over toward Sabrina and said, "Put your hand on my shoulder."Sabrina obeyed and did as he said."Just look at you, why would you wear heels this tall when you know you are coming to fight another woman? Aren't you just making yourself suffer? Luckily you aren't stupid and knew to take them off before pulling at her hair," Sebastian drawled lazily as he put Sabrina’s heels on for her."..." Everyone, including the employees of Ford Group and Lori, were rend
Her face instantly flushed red then turned pale again in a second. At that moment, Sebastian opened his mouth too. “Ms. Gibson, if right from the start you come to my office wearing such a low neckline, my receptionist will not let you in.” Right then, the receptionist suddenly noticed the patch of snow-white skin below Lori’s neck. She pointed at her abruptly. “Why… Why did you change?” Sabrina laughed coldly. “She didn’t change, she only looked conservative when she came in because she had wrapped up her chest with a scarf. And now the reason why she’s exposing a large part of her chest that shouldn’t be exposed is because she took off her scarf and wore it as a bow on her head.” The receptionist opened her eyes wide and glared at Lori. “You… You, how can you do this! No wonder Mrs. Director came to expose you personally. A sl*t like you should be paraded on the streets, to show everyone what kind of woman you actually are!” “Pah!” Someone even spat on Lori’s face. At t
