Sabrina felt her stomach sink at his expression and asked, "What- what's wrong?"He did not respond to Sabrina's question, but instead casted a sidelong glance over at her before reaching to pull the entire plate of bream towards him, with no intention of saving any for Sabrina.Sabrina was dumbfounded by his action. Ruthless, merciless, vicious, domineering, mean, those were the words she had used to describe the man before but it wasn't until today that she realized that he was also the kind of man that would compete with a woman over food, the food she had made herself, no less.The entire dish was devoured within a blank of an eye right before her. There were only bones and soup left on the plate.‘Was the bream that spicy?’ she thought, as she observed the sweat that formed on Sebastian's forehead.Sebastian finished the entire fish and two bowls of rice along with it, before looking over at Sabrina with a satisfied expression and said, "I'm going to take a shower. Remember to bri
‘Help him get dressed?’ Sabrina couldn't help but repeat those words in her mind again. She had never helped a man get dressed before. She wouldn't even know where to start, but seeing that he was waiting with both of his arms raised in the air, she complied and took the top of the pajamas in hand. First through the left shoulder, and then the right shoulder, with both of his arms into the sleeves, all that was left was to button it up. She realized she was standing extremely close to him as she was doing so, so much so that she was practically leaning into his skin. She could smell the shower gel from him and was not surprised how chilly his body was. The man seemed to enjoy cold showers despite it being winter at the time, after all. Pretty soon, his skin became boiling hot under her fingers, and it felt as though electricity had run through her body from the tip of her finger when it accidently connected with the man's skin. She immediately retracted her hands before continuing wi
Sabrina shook her head decisively. She knew her place and would never attempt to overstep the boundaries. Sebastian might have treated her with care by teaching her how to drive and taking her to register for a marriage certificate. They were sleeping in the same bed every night and were practically a married couple in real life, but still, Sabrina did not consider herself anyone important to Sebastian. In her mind, he was likely treating her with respect simply because she was the mother of his child, and any affection she had received so far was merely a reflection to how much Sebastian loved his daughter.Sabrina thought it was below her to try and be anything that she wasn't. Back when she was a child living under the Lynn Family's roof, she wasn't given much to eat. She never had the chance to try any sort of candies or snacks but Serene was never deprived of those. She would often make a point to devour those snacks in front of Sabrina, but Sabrina would never bother with her or
Sabrina stepped into the walk-in closet and instantly faced the struggle of deciding what to wear. Sebastian had bought countless outfits for her, most of which were from luxury brands, but who was she to dress grandly to the Ford Residence? The mother of Aino Scott? Her train of thoughts was then interrupted when she remembered Sebastian's reminder for her to dress prettier, that was the moment when she knew she had to dress up even if it was just for her daughter's sake. A visit to the Ford Residence was different from a normal day at work and she had to focus on being presentable for Aino.Sabrina picked out an outfit according to her favorite style: a white turtleneck cashmere sweater along with a long leather shirt with an orange tone. The cuttings were rather common, but when put together, they somehow created a contradiction between innocence and character. It gave her a look that was both elegant and simple, with a hint of the alluring charm of a mature woman. She then went ah
Sabrina swallowed and considered for a moment how Sebastian could be so insatiable. They had only done it the night before and he was already more than eager to do it again the very next morning? It was early in the morning and Aunt Lewis was feeding Aino her breakfast. If he really intended to take her right there and then in the walk-in closet, she might as well jump from the window and die before having to face the embarrassment afterward."Sebastian, please. I am the mother of your child. You might not care about me but at least consider your daughter for a moment here, don't you care about her?" Sabrina was at the brink of crying and pleaded, "What if she hears us? Or sees us? What would she think? At least think about how that would affect her impression on you, okay? The windows are wide open and people from the outside will see us..."Sebastian's hands stopped abruptly. "I don't care if the windows are open." His voice was hoarse and filled with desire, "There isn't anyone ar
“Sure!” The man replied in a clear-cut manner. Sabrina did not know what to say. However, immediately after that, Sebastian said again, “If you wished for Zayn to die in a foreign land.” Sabrina immediately looked at Sebastian with her eyes widened, “Zayn? My brother. Where is my brother now? You…Would you tell me where my brother is? You…” “He’s not dead.” The man only uttered three brief and straightforward words. He knew Sabrina had wanted to ask him about Zayn recently. However, every time the words almost came out of her mouth, she would swallow them back because she was afraid her inquiry would cost Zayn his life. Although she was very worried about Zayn, she had never asked about him. However, Sebastian knew that she had always been concerned about Zayn. If it were any other man besides Zayn, Sebastian might have already torn that man into a million pieces. However, throughout the past six years, Sabrina, Aino, and Zayn lived and depended on each other. If Zayn d
The man let out a burst of manic laughter and hugged Sabrina even tighter. He could truly feel her flushing hot cheeks pressed against his chest. His tone also became extremely gentle, “Go, pick out a pretty dress for your daughter. We need to leave already.”Sabrina spoke with an involuntary flirting tone. “Tell me, which one is the true you?”The man smiled in a laid-back manner. “When you only have me in your heart, then that would be the truest me.”What was that!There was no logic to it at all!She could not understand it!She did not have him in her heart.Since the first time she met him six years ago, and from the time she felt that he was the same person as the man who took her first time away, she already had him in her heart. However, she had dignity and a sense to protect herself. The harm she suffered did not allow her to open her heart to any man again. She would rather be indifferent for the rest of her life and have her heart wrapped in a pitiful shell than
Aino would never allow any woman to violate her mother’s territory. Sabrina was still distracted. “Mmm.”As she chatted on and off with her daughter, the family of three arrived at the Ford residence.It was the third time Sabrina came here. The first time was the day she was released from prison. She was brought here by Sebastian in a confused state. She remembered the maid quarters at the backyard of the Ford residence. A ravine with a stream was behind the backyard, and the ravine was the type that one could reach the deep bottom of the mountain following the vines. Sabrina could not help it and sighed in her heart when she thought about these. The Ford family truly was rich. They built such a magnificent mansion at this place near the mountain top. They could ascend to a height to enjoy a distant view, and it was also impossible for others to rob the house as the ravine was behind them. They were truly rich and wealthy. The maids who frequently went in and out of the ma
