Kingston suddenly remembered that he had taken some photographs earlier.He immediately told Sebastian, “Please hold on, Young Master, I will send them to you.”“Come here yourself!” Sebastian ordered.“What did you say?” Kingston asked, sounding confused.“Come here yourself!”When he heard this, Kingston was taken aback for a moment.He paused briefly before responding, “Do you want me to come to your place and show the pictures on the phone to the little princess in person?”Kingston had meant to ask if the pictures were for the princess’s mother, but was afraid that the young master would rebuke him for it. As such, he decided that it would be best to keep it to himself.Meanwhile, Sebastian, without explaining anything else, immediately hung up the phone. After their brief call, Kingston sped back to Sebastian’s place, reaching in just ten minutes. He then headed up after parking the car and pressed on the doorbell.The one who greeted him at the door was the maid, Aunt L
As Sebastian heard the child’s laughter coming from the dining room, accompanied by Sabrina’s warm voice that was filled with motherly love, as well as Kingston’s carefree laughter, he felt as if the large house he had stayed in for several years had suddenly acquired a burning fireplace.He had been accustomed to living alone, without even maids in his house.In fact, he had gone to great lengths just to hire the few professional maids that were here now for Sabrina and Aino.Yet even Sebastian, who had lived by himself for twenty years, appreciated this warm feeling of a proper home.He walked over from the study to the dining room without making a sound, and found the three of them gathered around Kingston’s phone, laughing at Selene’s ugly photos.The first to notice Sebastian was Kingston, who stopped smiling immediately. “Young… Young Master.”“Leave!” Sebastian’s tone was incredibly harsh.Kingston was taken aback.He had only been here for three minutes!Three minutes!
With these thoughts in her head, Sabrina did not reply to Kingston.Though Kingston’s message had made her feel very conflicted, Sabrina still decided that she would only take one step at a time and so wrapped her heart around tightly.For now, her main goal was to perform well at her new job.After putting down her phone, Sabrina bathed Aino before changing into home clothes. The two of them then returned to the living room. During that time, Sebastian also came into the living room after having changed.As the whole family was now gathered in the living room, it felt a little awkward.Sabrina was the first to speak.She cleared her throat and asked Sebastian, “That… Aino offended Selene, I…”“You don’t have to worry about that, I will deal with what my own daughter caused!” Sebastian said.“Oh…” Sabrina did not know how to reply him.Fortunately for her, Aunt Lewis had just finished preparing dinner.As the three of them ate together, the atmosphere around the dining table
It was obvious that the two women who were gossiping about Sabrina did not know who she actually was, as they didn’t realize that the subject of their conversation was actually standing right in front of them.Without a care in the world, the two of them continued talking away unscrupulously and with great relish.“Hey, did you know, I heard from the Ford Residence that the bastard daughter was accepted into the family.”“Is that so? Why would they accept the child of a woman who was captured? Don’t the older members of the Ford family despise her? I even heard that she has been to prison before.”“Logically speaking, the older generation of the Ford family would never recognize a child like that, but for some reason, the old master really seems to have taken a liking to the bastard daughter. Furthermore, just like how Young Master Sebastian is the only one left in his generation in the Ford family, his daughter is the same for now. So it's only natural that they care about her.”
After sorting out everything in the human resources department, the manager sent Sabrina to the architectural design department. When she arrived there, she saw the two gossiping women again.The two women smiled at her.Sabrina subtly nodded back at them.Then, the director of the department assigned a desk to Sabrina. Just as she was about to sit down, another woman suddenly came running into the office. She asked loudly, “Sabrina, who’s Sabrina?”Upon hearing her name, Sabrina stood up immediately and looked at the woman who was calling her. “Hello, that’s me. Do you have something for me?”She did not recognise the woman at all. It seems like she wasn’t from the human resources department, as Sabrina had just been there. So how did this woman know her, and why was she looking for her?Sabrina started to get suspicious.She had always been a reserved person, and would rarely strike up conversations with others. Sabrina would always feel uncomfortable and apprehensive whenever
Sabrina did not have any friends or contacts on her WhatsApp.Furthermore, she very rarely posted any stories, and had only done it maybe two or three times before.One of them was to declare that her daughter was finally safe, and that she would not have to be afraid anymore, which was posted along with photos of Aino.The next was a story about Sabrina finding a job.It was a job that she liked, located in a large office building. Her mood seemed much better in this story, and she even added a photo of the office building, as well as the name of the company.Just by looking at her words, it was evident that finding this job had put Sabrina in a very good mood. Further up, the latest story was actually posted on the same day. It wrote, “Seeing this woman being beaten up like this makes me feel so happy. I just want to find a corner to hide in and laugh. Hahaha. Attached are the photos of Selene’s beaten up face.”No matter how emotionless she acted, Sabrina still had the heart
“Answer!”Kingston had no choice but to steel himself and pick up the call. “Madam.”On the other end of the line, Sabrina asked with a calm voice, “Mr Yates, Yvonne is your…”“Madam, that’s my cousin,” Kingston answered while sweating profusely.Sabrina’s tone did not change. “How did you find out that I was working here? And are you trying to get your cousin to spy on my every move? You don’t have to do that, I can just quit working if you want. I don’t want to be spied on like this!”On the other end, Kingston stuttered as he tried to explain himself. “That’s, that’s not it, madam. You… You definitely misunderstood. It’s like this, I… when I sent you Selene’s photos, didn’t I add you on WhatsApp? As I’m a contact of yours now, I… I can see the stories you post.“When I saw that story you posted about the company you joined, I realized that it was such a coincidence, as my cousin works there too. After I found out, I reported the situation to the young master. So, my cousin hel
Sabrina looked up at the woman who was shouting at her.The woman was wearing an incredibly expensive outfit, and also had on high heels that were over ten centimeters high. She wore very exaggerated earrings that matched her alluring black hair. Sabrina realised that the woman was still staring at her with a challenging expression. She started to shout again, “I’m asking you, why are you here?!”When Yvonne saw that woman, she shrank back behind Sabrina, and started to kick at her feet. Even though Yvonne did not say anything, Sabrina understood what she was trying to say. Yvonne was telling her that the woman in front of them should not be messed with.However, even as Sabrina took another look at the woman again, she still didn’t recognise her at all.Sabrina sometimes wondered if she had been born to attract trouble.Why did women whom Sabrina could not afford to offend always seem to know her?However, with all things considered, it did make some sense.She was a notorious
