"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!" Le
Where could they possibly run to? Tears welled up in Sabrina's eyes as she bit down on her lower lip to anchor herself from the drowning despair and refused to look at Sebastian."My friend here earns over a million each day! He will be stuck in the hospital for a week, and you are saying that five million is too much of an amount as compensation for the loss income and expenses for his recovery?" Sebastian continued."..." Sabrina remained silent."If it's up to me, I would say ten million is the appropriate amount!" Sebastian claimed indifferently."Oh my, Mr. Ford, thank you, thank you so much! You are absolutely right, they should compensate ten million for our loss!" With Sebastian 's support, Mr. Sullivan had only grown more righteous.Despite being a child, Leo too was very observant and immediately turned to smile sweetly at Sebastian , "thank you, Uncle Ford.""Hmph! You can find yourself a hundred uncles and I am still not afraid of you, this doesn't change the fact tha
In the face of the majestic man, Aino who had been fearless, fretted for the first time. She had seen this man before on her mother's computer, and her mother would always sob in silence late at night when she was all alone looking at this man's photo. To a five year-old child, Aino could only interpret her mother's tears as a result of fear towards the man, and it was only natural for a child to fear what their mother feared. Frightened, Aino dared not to answer and backed up a few steps.Leo, who was behind Sebastian, was increasingly impatient and screamed, "Uncle Ford, kill her! Kill Aino Scott!"Just as both Zayn and Sabrina were stunned like deer in the headlights, Aino seemed to have finally gathered up the courage to speak."Can you let go of my mommy?" She asked."What?" Sebastian scowled in confusion."My mommy is scared of you, she always cries whenever she sees you. If you let go of mommy and uncle, I will let you kill me," Aino met Sebastian's eyes nervously.The fiv
