Marcus was left speechless.He didn't know how to console the girl standing in front of him and could only share her pain in his heart. Right at that moment, it started to rain, as if on cue.The rain grew heavier within a few seconds .Sabrina raised her arms to protect her head from the rain, but Marcus immediately pulled her into the building lobby on the first floor.As the two steadied themselves, Marcus took out his cell phone and dialed a number. "Cindy, come help me bring the documents up."Sabrina said nothing. Wasn’t Marcus planning to go upstairs? Why would he call someone down here to come pick up his documents?Shortly after, a beautiful woman in professional attire and high heels arrived at the lobby. Marcus then passed the woman some files and instructed, "Tell your director that I won't be going upstairs. There’s some matters that I have to attend to here.""Yes, Director Shaw,” replied the woman with a smile before heading back upstairs.Marcus turned his att
“I’ll never do it again.“If you need any money in the future, no matter how much it is, you can always come find me.“Don’t allow yourself to suffer alone.Sabrina accepted the name card, saying “Thank you, Young Master Shaw.”She did not really want the name card, so what was the point of accepting it? Sabrina and her daughter were already with Sebastian, so they would not need to worry about money in the future. Furthermore, she had also found a job, which she decided to dedicate her time to and make money from it.She did not need to rely on anyone else anymore.However, seeing as Marcus had helped her before, she did not want to step on Marcus’s dignity by rejecting the card.Just as she was reaching for the card, a car stopped behind the two of them. Marcus and Sabrina both turned their attention to the car.Sabrina’s expression suddenly changed.Why was it such a coincidence that Sebastian had arrived home just at that moment?For some reason, Sabrina was scared that t
Kingston, Marcus and Sabrina were all shocked.Marcus tried to protect Sabrina behind him, while looking at Sebastian in horror. “Sebastian… Come at me if you have any problems, just don’t lay a finger on Sabrina. After all, she’s given birth to a daughter for you.“If… you want to kill someone, let it be me.”Sebastian did not respond. Instead, he simply took off his tie and unbuttoned the top of his shirt. In a moment, that muscular body of his was exposed to Marcus.He then said in an unemotional voice, “What were you thinking? The car was a bit stuffy which made me feel hot, so I undid my buttons to cool down for a bit.”Marcus felt relieved. “Oh… Sebastian, you… your neck, how did it get injured?”“Oh, I was injured by a wild cat.” Sebastian replied casually.Both Kingston and Sabrina were still frozen in place.Sabrina’s face had turned so red that she looked away from everyone there, and focused on rubbing Aino’s hair.Kingston’s tongue was tied as he thought to himself
The way Marcus looked at her?How was that possible?She was just a woman that Sebastian had captured, and her reputation was still incredibly notorious from six years ago. In contrast, Marcus’ background was not too far behind Sebastian’s, so how could he possibly fall for someone like her?He had probably just felt remorseful, and pitied Sabrina.After half a moment, Sabrina asked Sebastian in a mocking tone, “Are you jealous of Marcus?”“Yes!” Sebastian replied in a straightforward manner.Sabrina did not know how to respond, as she had not expected to hear such an answer from him.How could he possibly be jealous of Marcus?As Sebastian continued to speak again, his tone made it sound like he was complaining. “This daughter of yours! She defeated two women in the Ford Residence this morning, and even imperiously declared that she did it to protect your rights!”After seeing what had happened earlier, Sebastian realized that Aino would not let him interact with any other wo
When Selene spoke, her voice sounded very unclear, almost as if she had a gigantic tongue lodged in her mouth. It was probably because of how she had been slapped by Old Master Shaw a few times after getting in a fight with Frost earlier.Sebastian could not help but find it funny that this woman, after being beaten up so badly, was still able to apologize to him.As he listened to what Selene had to say, Sebastian noticed Aino pulling on Sabrina’s hand with a cunning smile before leaving the room together with her.When he looked out of the door, he saw that the two of them had gone to the dining room.He then said to Selene impatiently, “Speak up if you have anything to say!”“Young Master, my grandfather didn’t just hit me in front of the Ford family. When we returned, he continued to lecture me as well. He even made me kneel down on the floor to repent. Young Master, I’m aware of my mistakes now.“I won’t ever fight with anyone in public anymore. As the daughter of a noble fa
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
