Sabrina did not know how to answer. Did he owe them money for the formula?Yes!However, would he pay?He would never acknowledge Aino. He would only treat Aino as his shame.Sabrina forcefully swallowed her bitterness, then said to Aino with a smile, “Aino, let me know where are you at now? Have you had lunch yet? Were you used to the food? Were you scared, and did you miss me?”Aino pondered a little and said, “Mom, actually, the stinky bum was quite nice to me. He fed me really nice custards and also pumpkin pie for lunch. They were my favorite foods. I am missing you a little, Mom. Are you coming to find me? I am only one floor above the stinky bum. Where is this place?”Aino turned around and looked at the young lad that she smashed with slime earlier. “Brother, where is this place?”The handsome young lad immediately answered, “Reporting to the little princess, this is the Planning Department.”“I’m at the Planning Department, Mom.”‘Planning Department’Sabrina got u
Sebastian’s expression suddenly changed. “What did you say?”Sabrina’s heart was frosty. She met Selene as soon as she left the house, and she clearly heard what Selene said. Selene was still Sebastian’s fiancée. On the other hand, Sabrina was one of his tools. A tool only to make money and pay off the debt. The man that was sitting on the couch had great dignity and was no ordinary man. Since he could sit in Sebastian’s office and have a conversation with her, there was no doubt that he should be one of Sebastian’s clients. Sebastian asked her to keep those clients accompanied. It should only be the beginning. However, when would the ending be? It should be the day when she was rotten and smelled to death. Sabrina could not help but felt pity and sorrow when she thought of her fate. The arms that were around Aino also tightened a little. “I would obey your orders. I would do anything you asked me to do. I only had one request. Please let Aino live for the sake that she
The man sneered, “Weren’t you in a hurry to be with a man? Were you that anxious?”Sabrina stammered, “Wha…What?” Her teeth were chattering in fear. However, the man did not stop pressing her because she was frightened. He approached her step by step.Sabrina backed up step by step until she was pushed against the heel of the couch and had nowhere else to retreat. The man took a big step and rushed over. With a bent of his waist, he scooped the woman into his arms. “Woman! Were you so eager to accompany a man?”Sabrina was so frightened that her tears almost came out. “Weren't you the one who asked me to accompany them?”“You took my daughter as a hostage!”“You took her away as you pleased. You tell me, what other things could I do?”“It was you who asked me to accompany the men, then get some profit off them so that I could pay you back, and the person who is questioning me now was still you.” “Could it be that because we, an orphan and a single mother, had no ability to fi
Sabrina was speechless.Of course, she knew what he meant by “teach her.”She used both her hands to push against Sebastian in an attempt to break free. She could not let him know that he had already hunted her down and made her hide everywhere, but deep down, she still longed for his appearance and his embrace. A spineless woman like her really deserved such an insult.“No!” She pushed him outwards as hard as she could.“No?” The man sneered. “Just a moment ago, you were in a hurry, and you asked to be with a man. So, why don’t you want it now? Were you trying to play hard-to-get again?”Sabrina's cheeks were flushed red by what Sebastian said. She felt extremely wronged and said incoherently, “I was in a hurry! Wasn’t it because you asked me to pay you back ten million dollars as soon as possible? I owe you ten million, my daughter is in your hands, tell me what I should do?” Sabrina sobbed. Was he trying to press her to death?“What you should do, you know it very well i
The secretary pushed the door open, and her eyes widened in shock immediately at the sight before her. The Director was sitting upright on the luxurious office chair that was made specifically for him, and sitting on his lap, was a woman. The Director’s suit covered the woman, and her hair was all tangled up as she nestled her head onto the man's shoulder. Her arms were wrapped around the Director.The secretary was no fool. Although she couldn't see the woman's face to identify her, she instinctively realized that this woman must be extremely close with the Director.The secretary had been working at the Ford Group for three years, and over the time of her employment, she had reported to the Director every day with contracts for him to sign. She had never seen the presence of a woman in the Director's office, let alone for one to appear on the Director's lap. The secretary instantly came to the conclusion that she had knocked at the wrong time."I'm...I'm so sorry, Direct
Countless members of the higher management came looking for Sebastian for the rest of the day, either to discuss contracts or the projects they were working on.However, they were all reminded of the small child the director had brought to the office earlier today upon seeing the sign outside the door. They were all intelligent individuals who knew instinctively that the mother shouldn't be far behind if the child were there.Sabrina finally regained consciousness when she was moved to sit beside the windows of the inner bedroom. They were on the 66th floor of the building, and without anything blocking the windows, she could see everything from afar, and so could the others if they decided to look in. For a moment, Sabrina felt as though she had been lying to herself for her entire life and the woman in the present was who she really was. She could not help but felt ashamed for her true self, so much so that she couldn't face the reality that her true self was somehow discover
"I want to see my mommy!" Aino shouted without hesitation.The door immediately swung open, and Kingston took it as the cue for him to leave. Aino stepped in as though she was the owner of the place and found her mother resting in the bedroom."Mommy, why were you sleeping on the bed again?" She asked curiously."Um, mommy was feeling a little bit unwell, baby. So tell me, did you eat well?" Sabrina asked."Mommy, Aino ate so much that my stomach was full. It was fun. Uncle Kingston told me a lot of stories," said Aino. Although she decided that Uncle Kingston and Stinky Bum were becoming less and less annoying, had it not been for her mother's fear of the man, Aino might have started calling Stinky Bum ‘daddy’."Mommy, were you sick? Did you have a fever?" Aino touched Sabrina's forehead tentatively with concern."Mommy is okay," Sabrina lowered her voice, feeling guilty as she spoke, "Mommy just felt sorry that I almost forgot about you and your uncle.""Aino, your mother need
"Wow! Mommy, you look so pretty, you are the prettiest mommy in the world!" Aino, who was standing behind Sebastian, looked up at her mother with amazement, "Who bought you these clothes, mommy? They are so pretty.""They were from your..." Sabrina wasn't sure how she should answer the question. Sebastian, on the other hand, looked cheeky as he waited for Sabrina's reply.Sabrina bowed her head slightly. She had to admit that the clothes he had sent in were indeed the perfect fit for her, in terms of size and style. He even managed to get a fitting underwear. The man's attention to detail was simply extraordinary."Stinky Bum! Were you the one that bought mommy these clothes?" Aino had inherited Sebastian's wit. Although her mother had never finished the sentence, she instantly figured that her mother talked about Sebastian."They fit well," Sebastian commented as he studied Sabrina. His voice was dangerously low, "Had you slept enough?""Yes," Sabrina replied weakly."Come," hol
