Chapter 25
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

“Slap your daughter’s face. You could stop when I say so. If you’re reluctant to slap her or if you did not slap hard enough, then I would ask two big and rough men to each slap her a hundred times with the soles of their shoes.”Jade was stunned. “Madam Ford, what…what did you say?”Selene was even more frightened that she ended up going limp and fell on the floor with her face covered in tears.Grace did not intend to repeat herself at all and only asked Jade, “Would you do it, or do I find someone else to do it for you?”“Me! I’ll do it. I’ll do it!” Jade crawled and came to the front of Selene. She raised her hand and gave Selene a big slap.“Mom…” Selene cried as she looked at her mother. “It's better than two men slapping you with the soles of their shoes.” Jade raised her hand and gave another slap. The slap landed on Selene’s right cheek.Jade slapped extremely hard.It was as if she was afraid Grace would not be satisfied.Selene let out suppressed wails while she wa

Kingston could not see Sebastian’s expression, but no voice was heard after a long time.“Master Sebastian, Master Sebastian?” Kingston called out. On the other end, Sebastian’s voice was extremely frosty. “I see.”Kingston said, “Young Master Sebastian, do you have any other orders?”“I’ll be busy these few days. The day after tomorrow, make sure you pick up Selene and wait for me outside the Ford Residence.” Sebastian wanted to use Selene to ward off the bevy of beauties Old Master had invited on his behalf.“Noted, Young Master Sebastian. I’ll hang up now,” Kingston courteously said.“There’s more,” Sebastian suddenly called out to Kingston.“Follow her.” Sebastian’s tone had a tinge of anger.Kingston said, “Follow who?” As soon as he uttered the words, he smacked himself on his head and said, “Noted, Young Master Sebastian. I’ll immediately follow Miss Scott!” After he hung up, Kingston drove along behind Sabrina to follow her. However, Sabrina’s tracks were very simple
