“Mom, I’m sorry.” Sabrina’s tears fell on the corner of Grace’s blanket. Her voice was a little hoarse from crying. "I just joined the company, so I had to obey the arrangements of my boss. My boss made a last-minute decision to send me on a business trip for a few days, so I couldn't come to see you on time.""It's my bad. My health is getting increasingly worse.” The tubes on Grace’s body had not yet been removed. Grace looked at her body, then said with a bitter smile, "I do not know if I could still open my eyes again after closing them...”"Mom, don’t say that. I do not want you to leave me. If you have left me, then I would be very lonely. I do not have much family in this world." Sabrina laid under Grace’s nose and cried her heart out.Sabrina was just rescued, but she did not return to Sebastian’s place. She spent the whole day at the hospital taking care of Grace instead. Sabrina helped Grace clean her body, washed her hair, and clipped her nails. Grace was initially at t
"It's raining?" Sebastian came to the balcony and looked out. It really was raining. He then looked further down and saw a woman kneeling in the rain while looking up at his floor.Sebastian took an umbrella and went down."Master Sebastian, Master Sebastian…You were willing to come down to see me." Selene’s lips are frozen purple. She crawled on her knees to the front of Sebastian and hugged his legs."Master Sebastian, listen to me. If you let me finish then I wouldn’t mind if you beat me to death. Please give me a chance to defend myself.”As he looked at this woman who groveled and behaved so lowly, Sebastian felt extremely disgusted in his heart. He was so close to kicking her to death yesterday.However, it was because she had used her body to save his life that allowed him to take control of the Ford Group successfully.His foot stopped right at the moment he was about to kick her.The disgust he had in his heart for this woman, however, was increasing by the day.This wom
The call was from Henry.The old man's tone was both commanding and consultative, "Sebastian, since you said that woman was there to console your mother, your grandma and I decided to arrange a casual family banquet this weekend. The girls of age from the noble and distinguished families of both South City and Kidon City would also come to the banquet…”“I'm not going!" Sebastian mercilessly refused before the old man could finish his words.The old man on the other end had no choice but to soften his tone even more. "Sebastian, don’t hang up the phone so quickly. Could you let grandpa finish words?"Sebastian did not respond.“Sebastian?”"I'm listening!""When it comes to the Ford family business matters, I would not intervene. However, I am already 96 years old this year, you couldn’t let me die before seeing you married and have children before that, right? If you take a fancy to one of the girls who would be coming to the banquet, then that would definitely be the best, but
Sabrina called out again, “Master Sebastian…”Sebastian picked up his phone and dialed a set of numbers. "Kingston, come over and send Miss Lynn home right away."Selene was speechless.After he hung up, Sebastian said coldly and mercilessly, "Wait here, Kingston would be here in three minutes and he would send you home."He went into the elevator himself, pressed the [Up] button, and the elevator closed.Selene was left stunned and alone in the rain.Three minutes later, Kingston came. He backed up the car to the front of Selene, wound the window down and shouted, "Miss Lynn, get in quickly, don't get wet.""Are you a dead man?" Selene’s expression immediately changed. Kingston looked puzzled. "I am the fiancé of Master Sebastian. As his driver, shouldn't you come down, open the door for me, and then bend your legs for me as a carriage step?"Kingston was speechless.After a few seconds, Kingston got out of the car without saying a word. He opened the door, then bent one
Sebastian did not withdraw his cold gaze because of Sabrina's scream. He surveyed Sabrina with a serious gaze. Sabrina fiercely pushed Sebastian away, picked up the bathrobe, and wrapped herself. She quickly rushed into the small guest bedroom.Her tears streamed down her eyes the moment she closed the door.The sense of shame, only she knew how stifling it was.She wiped off the tears that she could not control with her wrist, and when she was about to get her clothes, the door behind her was suddenly pushed open. She shivered in shock.She looked up and saw that Sebastian had a first aid kit in his hand.Sabrina used a bath towel to cover her front. "You… What are you doing?"The man did not say anything but raised his hand to grab her by the arm. He made her lie on the bed with a flipping motion. She felt some kind of cool ointment was applied to her back before she could react.Sabrina’s back had several ligature marks that even she could not see by herself. She only knew sh
Sabrina jerked up her curly eyelashes and fluttered a few times. She did not remember who the man was at first glance. After a few seconds, she pursed her lips and said, "Master Nigel."The design director reacted immediately as if the crown prince had arrived. The design director got up from the seat, came to the front of Nigel, and said after courteously bowing and nodding, “Master Nigel, what wind blew you here? Were you…here to inspect the work?”"What's wrong with this staff?" Nigel asked carelessly."Well, a new recruit, no education, and no experience, but absent from work for several days. For such a person, the company could no longer retain her," the design director said."I… I would never miss work again. I would work hard to move bricks at the construction site…" Sabrina was determined to fight for one last chance. “It’s just an architectural assistant, right? Our company is enormous, so we must have compassion. We should give chances to any new recruits. Everybody ma
“At least buy me…” Nigel looked at the small restaurants in the surroundings. They were either dark and smoky or had a bunch of general workers eating lunch boxes outside. He pinched his nose. He must go all out if he wanted to get with this self-restrained chick! “No matter what, you should at least buy me a ten-dollar lunch box, right?”“Alright,” Sabrina replied promptly.The two bought a lunch box, the type that had two choices of vegetables and a portion of meat.Sabrina was full of the two mushroom sandwiches she ate. She sat opposite Nigel and stared at him while he ate.This feeling was extremely awkward.It was more awkward because Sabrina, who was sitting opposite Nigel, had an extremely bland expression. As he ate the lunch box that was as tasteless as wax, Nigel really wanted to reach over and recklessly rub on those cold and helpless little cheeks.The best would be to pull her into his arms and have his way with her.He did not believe that she would still be a
"How did you find your way here?! Get the hell out of here!" Sabrina was furious. It did not matter how Jade and Selene harassed and insulted her, but they came to the ward to harass the seriously ill Grace.Sabrina picked up her bag and smashed it on Jade.However, Grace called out to her, “Sabbie…”Sabrina turned around and looked at Grace. “Mom, don’t be afraid, I would beat and chase them out right away.”“Sabbie, I sent someone to call them to come over,” Grace said.Sabrina was puzzled. When Sabrina turned around, she saw both Jade and Selene looking at Grace─ lying on the hospital bed─ with frightened faces."Mom? You… brought them here?" Sabrina looked at Grace in disbelief.Grace’s face was pale, but she had an authority that no one dared to disobey. "Jade Sullivan, Selene Lynn!"“Madam Ford…” Jade nervously looked at Grace as if she had met a powerful opponent.Grace plainly recounted, "Although I was not legitimately married into the Ford family in this life, to b
