Zayn never attempted to force his way into a relationship with Sabrina. The two treated one another like they would their siblings. As time went by, the bond they shared developed into one that they would have considered each other like siblings by blood, with Sabrina's daughter also considering Zayn as her uncle. Four years slipped by and their lives had been peaceful. Sabrina would come home every evening to take care of Zayn. She would help him into the house and set the bed for him, before heading out to fetch her daughter from the kindergarten. Usually, her daughter would accompany her uncle as she headed back to the construction site and worked until half past six. But as she had just finished helping Zayn into the house, her phone rang."Hello? Miss. Wals?" The call was from her daughter's teacher at the kindergarten."Mrs. Scott, you need to get here this instant. Your daughter was in a fight with one of her classmates again!" Miss. Wals requested, her tone impatient."Oh, o
The obese man turned around to face Sabrina and roared, "You skank, apologize! You must get down on your knees and apologize!""I said, watch your mouth!" Sabrina retorted calmly."Why? Did he say anything wrong? Aren't you a single mother? Not just that but an unmarried mother, too! Women like you are born to be cheap and shameless! Your daughter is nothing but a little skank like her skank mother, and she dares to hit my son? Who on earth do you think you are?"A vicious-looking woman who stood next to the obese man was glaring at her. She was dressed in a black and white striped coat made of mink fur as if to show off how wealthy she was. The makeup on her face was so heavy that it almost seemed like it was falling apart as she was shouting at Sabrina. Clearly, that couple were uneducated nouveau riche, and Sabrina was not intimidated by their presence."If I'm not mistaken, my daughter is a year younger than your son, how could she possibly beat him up? Besides, kids fool aroun
"Leo's grandparents are generous donors who sponsored over two hundred thousand dollars to this kindergarten, they are...""So basically you are saying," Sabrina interrupted Miss Wals, slightly irritated, "that if we refuse to apologize, my daughter will be forbidden to continue her study here in this kindergarten?""I'm afraid..." Miss Wals replied as she struggled to find the right words. "I'm afraid it won't be that simple. Even if Aino drops out, she will still...have to apologize.""What for?" Sabrina raised her voice."Miss Scott, you have to understand that your daughter is the one who hit her classmate first," said Miss Wals."I request to see the footage!" Sabrina was furious. In the past five years she had been in this country, she had never caused any trouble and had devoted herself to her job. She might have seemed like a sincere and truthful person who was more than willing to compromise, but the one thing she would not tolerate was for anyone to bully her daughter!"
"You stay right there, skank!" The sharp pain on his lower back made it impossible for him to stand so the man shouted as he was sitting on the ground. "Woman, you try stepping out of this kindergarten, and I will make sure you suffer for it. People are going to find the corpses of both you and your daughter on the street, rotting!"The threat had Aino startled and her hand froze in her mother's palm.Sabrina looked down at her daughter, her heart ached for the little one and she consoled, "Aino, it's okay. Mommy will handle them."Aino nodded in response and Sabrina turned to stare at the vicious family calmly. "I am standing here now, how about you try and do something right here? This is a civilized society, you try harming a hair on me and I will contact the local police. Not only will I do that, but I'm going to file a lawsuit against this kindergarten. I heard that your father-in-law sponsored this kindergarten, is that right? And I'm guessing he did so as an investment too? Th
Especially those three months. She was dragged into the elite community of the South City as a plaything for men from wealthy families and almost got herself killed in the process. Three months was enough for Sabrina to swear off believing in true love and above all, she wanted nothing more to do with wealthy men. She only wished to live in peace with her daughter and Zayn here in this country for the rest of her life, and nothing more.Sabrina hesitated for a moment before answering, "Director Johns, I sort of have my hands full over here. Excuse me but I will have to hang up for now."Sabrina hung up and swiftly got onto the scooter with her daughter. As soon as they arrived back home, Aino darted into the house screaming "Uncle, uncle!" along the way.Zayn heard them and wheeled himself out. "Oh dear, here comes our precious little beauty Aino. Will you tell your uncle just who was it that you beat up today? Did they lose a tooth or two?" he asked playfully."Brother," Sabrina s
Sabrina turned around to find the developer of her current construction project, the proprietor who had contacted her earlier, Neil."Director Johns, what brought you here?" Sabrina asked humbly as she looked steadily at Neil.Neil was dressed in an exquisite suit that emphasized on his handsome features and athletic figure. His looks along with the fortune he held had made him one of the most eligible bachelors in the county with countless girls dying to crawl their way into the wealthy developer's heart. Had Sabrina run into a caring man like Neil back when she was studying in college three years ago, she might have been moved. But after everything, Sabrina only wanted to live her life in peace with her daughter and her brother."I wanted to invite you to dinner, but since you have returned home, I thought I could come over to check on you." Neil lifted his hand that was holding the basket of fruits and flowers and explained, "I bought them for your daughter and your brother, do a
After dinner, Sabrina decided to spend the night reviewing the blueprint for the construction, while Zayn tugged Aino in and read her story books. The two were overjoyed in each other's company and Sabrina would take a peep at them from time to time, feeling like everything was right in the world.The next day after breakfast, Sabrina went to have a discussion with Zayn."I'm going to go back to Aino's kindergarten to proceed with the procedures of having her transferred, and look for a different kindergarten elsewhere. Maybe it's best to keep our distance with people like Mr. Sullivan, they are far too powerful for us to risk being in conflict with them, we might as well just avoid them altogether.""Sure," Zayn nodded in agreement.Having reached a consensus, Sabrina was just about to head out when she saw two men standing outside the fences and were about to knock on the door. The two men were dressed in official attire with briefcases in their hands."Hi, can I help you?" Sabr
Sabrina’s voice was so low that it was barely even a whisper that no one beside her could hear, and was more like a faint sound that was emitted from the depth of her throat. Every muscle on her body tensed uncontrollably at the man's presence. It had been six years and the intimidating aura on him seemed to have only thickened since she last saw him. Without even saying a word, he could bring the most strong-willed people down to their knees. The Sullivan family lost every last strand of their previous arrogance the moment he stepped in, and immediately fawned over the man."Mister...Mr. Ford, what brought you here? This...this injury on my back isn't really that bad," Mr. Sullivan smiled humbly at Sebastian , stuttering as if he was at complete loss of words. His wife nodded frantically by his side, not daring to utter one single word.Surprisingly, their son Leo seemed familiar with Sebastian and called out to him, "uncle!""Mm-hm," Sebastian responded in a low tone."Skank!"
