The scene in front of their eyes was a chaotic mess. Sabrina could not help but snort.“Sabbie, what… What happened?” Gloria looked at her calm-faced daughter.Sabrina’s expression was filled with despair that could not be concealed. “Mom, it’s fine. Things that were meant to come will come, and we can’t hide from it because in this world, there are many people who think the two of us deserve to suffer. Many who do not deserve their spots either feel like we’re the ones who should be discarded, and try to take over our places instead. Since that is the case, it’s a dog-eat-dog fight now. At most, I’ll go back to being a homeless street urchin.”Gloria could not understand her daughter’s words. She knew her daughter had been a crafty one since she was a young girl. When she was twelve, she was bullied in school. Her bully wiped dung on her head, but even so, she could still casually wash her hair alone in a little stream. When she got home, she did not cry or complain to her pare

Beside them, Lori and her mother who were stunned silly with shock, turned out to be quite brave after all.After all, they had been living abroad all these years. They were no strangers to a little blood and gore. Just two days ago, Lori had bled because of this damned simp! At that moment, Lori mustered her courage, suppressing her fear as she shouted at the black-suited man, “Who… Who are you! Where did you come from? Do you know this is the Grand Sage International Hotel! You can’t run! Security, don’t be afraid of him. Shut the doors! He can’t run away…”Lori’s words warned the security guards. One of them immediately ran to the doors and shut them. When the black-suited man saw Lori screaming her head off at him, he immediately released the greasy man and leaped toward Lori. “Ah…” Lori fell to the floor in a heap, her legs turning to jelly from fear.The black-suited man snatched at the empty air. Seeing her sitting on the floor in fright, he raised his foot and was abou

Holden was dumbfounded. Then he looked at Sabrina with an expression of utter love and devotion. “She and her mother are trying to trick you! Why would you be so stupid and come here?” Sabrina’s eyes turned red with unshed tears. “Go! Go now!”Holden: “…”“Leave!” Sabrina roared with fury. She saw the two security guards holding the lock and was about to lock the main doors, so she dashed to them as fast as she could and pushed the both of them down to the ground. Then she shouted in Holden’s direction. “You! Payne! Leave, right now! Now!!” Payne was not an idiot. He did not linger and, instead, he turned and ran. When he reached the entrance, he turned back suddenly and tugged Sabrina into his arms. He planted a kiss on the crown of her head, then bolted out of the doors.Sabrina: “…”Within a minute, police patrol cars arrived at the hotel. The crowd which had been hiding stood up immediately. Lori stood up too, still looking flustered. Beside her, the simp who had been

The police firmly believed this. However, there was no evidence to support the fact that Sabrina and the black-suited man were accomplices. Even after questioning everyone present in the hotel lobby, no one could provide an answer.On the other hand, a few women stammered for a while, then shook their heads. They wanted to say they felt Sabrina had been framed, but in the end, they lacked the courage to do so. Because now, nothing was certain, and with one wrong word, they might turn into public enemy number one. It was better if they just kept their mouths shut.Without any evidence, the police could only send the half-dead Steve to the hospital and then chase after the black-suited man. As for Sabrina, naturally, they did not arrest her. Seeing her daughter stand there uninjured, Gloria burst into tears of happiness. “Sabbie, I was worried just now.”Sabrina shook her head. “I’m fine, Mom.”“Fine?” Jennie glared at Sabrina viciously. “The police did not have evidence to arr
Chapter 1350
When Sabrina saw Sebastian and Lori walk toward his car, laughing and smiling along the way, her chest felt as if it had been battered by a blunt object until her blood was splattered all over the ground.For a moment, she was numb to the pain. She stared dumbly at the two of them as they climbed into the car, and continued staring until the car drove away. She knew Kingston must be the one driving. This reminded her of the phone call Kingston made to her two days ago. She never really understood the meaning of that sudden and awkward phone call. Even though Kingston looked like a cheeky and cheery man, he was never careless. Now, she finally understood. Kingston was taking the risk to alert her of the fact that Sebastian had had a change of heart. Standing beside her own car, Sabrina felt dizzy, as if her legs could not support the weight of her body, as if she had drunk twenty pints of alcohol. She did not know how she made it into the car, did not know how she started the

It was expected of a king who conquered the entire South City. As expected of a mistress’s son on the run, the man who overturned everything overnight.A man like this was 10,000 times stronger than that greasy and old-fashioned country bumpkin simp. No! 100,000 times better!Even if Lori was awarded with ten such simps like him, Lori would not even bat an eyelid. If she was to marry, she would definitely marry a man like Sebastian, the cream of the crop! And now, this man was sitting in the same private room as her. They were sitting so close together that she wondered whether he could hear her own heartbeat. Finally, within a month of her return, this man was sitting at the same table as her. Perfect!Ha! Perhaps, she might be able to climb into Sebastian’s bed tonight. “Master Sebastian…” Watching as Sebastian read through the contract wordlessly, Lori beat around the bush and asked, “I never expected my mother would know your father, Master Sean. I even have to add

Sabrina did not switch off her phone on purpose. Her phone had run out of battery. At that moment, she lay curled up on her mother’s sofa, crying wordlessly. She had no idea her phone was dead. An hour or two later, she was exhausted from crying, almost dehydrated. Her mother brought her a bowl of vegetable soup and called out to her softly. “Sabbie, get up and drink something, child.”Sabrina sat up. She forced a slight smile onto her face. “Mom, I’m fine.”“I know.” Gloria comforted her. “Don’t be sad. You still have me and Aino.”At the thought of Aino, Sabrina paused, then took out her phone to take a look at the time. Only then did she realize her phone had died. After charging her phone, she sat in the courtyard alone in a daze.But she could not sit still. The moment she sat down, her mind was filled with thoughts of Sebastian. She could not help herself. Looking at the flowers blooming in the courtyard, she felt as if there were drops of tears on the flowers. She even

Jane was indeed wise. At least she had now escaped this abyss of misery and lived a simple, but honest life with the man she loved. Right when she was thinking about Jane, Sabrina’s phone rang. She held it up and saw that it was a call from Jane. For some reason, her eyes immediately became wet. Tears streamed down her cheeks in rivulets. A strong sense of understanding and sympathy for the other woman’s similar encounter gushed into her chest. Sabrina barely managed to suppress the despair that accompanied such a realization. A minute later, when the ringing was about to stop, Sabrina successfully calmed herself down and answered. Her tone was peaceful and clear. “Jane, is that you?”Jane’s voice came from the other end of the phone. “Sabrina, I’m just calling to let you know that I’m safe and healthy, and also to tell you that I can’t pay you back at the moment. Because even though me and my current boyfriend both work, we can only earn around two hundred dollars a day…”
