The old madam truly had a good eye.Sebastian could not help it and held Sabrina’s tender wrist tightly. The scene was witnessed by Frost, who was sitting opposite them. There was no need to mention how emotional she felt in her heart. At this moment, the old man on the main seat spoke again, “Since you are already Ford family’s daughter-in-law, then you should know about some of the Ford family’s relations. The Ford family and the Shaw family are eminent families with two to three hundred years of legacy in South City.” “In the early years, both the Ford and Shaw family were into business.” “In these few decades, the Shaw family had always been into politics and literature.”“However, the friendship between the Ford and Shaw family had never been broken before. I asked Sebastian to come back today. On one hand, it was because we wanted to see our great-granddaughter, Aino. On the other hand, it was to tell you that Old Master Shaw had fallen ill. Sebastian, you would’ve hear
Sabrina thought that was also correct. It was only Old Madam Ford that had approved of her and gave her the Ford family heirloom. However, the old madam would soon be senile. The Ford family members definitely would not let the heirloom be passed on to her. They did not even prepare a seat for her at the dining table, let alone passing the heirloom to her. Sabrina was sensible and said to Sebastian, “I ate too much this morning, so I’m not hungry. My stomach is feeling a little uncomfortable, so I would like to lie down in the car for a while.”She remembered she had lied to Sebastian about being on her period. It was the right time to lie about her stomach being uncomfortable. Sebastian instantly smiled wickedly, leaned against her ear and said, “Stomachache? Do you want me to give you a rub? All men have a fire within. Add a little warmth and it wouldn’t hurt anymore.”Sabrina was speechless. Her face instantly flushed red. The man had already held her by the wrist before
Rose gave an order to the maid in charge of the dining room, “Do not place a table setting for Sabrina on the dining table today. She didn’t want to address me as her mother-in-law and didn’t speak to her father and me. Since she didn’t acknowledge us, then she shouldn’t eat at the dining table!”“I’ll see what they could do to me!”Rose was taking full advantage of her seniority.No maids in the house dared to disobey. There were initially ten people dining today, including Aino. However, Sabrina’s place was missing. The table and chairs were put in place. Frost was gloating in her heart. She wanted to see for herself how Sabrina would handle the situation. Frost walked into the dining room first with an attitude that she should be prioritized and then sat on her usual seat. She eagerly greeted the Ford family members, “Grandpa, Grandma, Aunt Rose, Uncle Sean, Aunt and Uncle Conor.” The Aunt and Uncle Conor that Frost mentioned was Nigel’s parents. Frost knew that Nigel’s
Frost bursted out laughing as she was feeling smug. She gloated and looked at Sabrina. She clearly meant, ‘Did you think if Sebastian treated you as his wife, you could sit and dine at the dining room in the Ford residence?’‘Did you truly think you were Sebastian’s wife?’‘You had accepted the bracelet from the old madam and had offended the entire Ford family.’‘That bracelet should belong to my aunt.’‘In the future, it would be mine.’‘You were a woman whose status was elevated because of your daughter, and you wanted to seize the Ford family heirloom.’‘You’re being asked to get out now, and you deserved it.’The whole speech in her imagination could not satisfy Frost’s smugness in the end. She followed Sebastian’s momentum and scolded Sabrina, “Miss Scott! The Ford family’s dining room truly wasn’t someplace you could come. Of course, telling you to get lost was already the politest way for Master Sebastian to speak to you, ouch…”Frost did not finish her sentence as he
However, what could Rose say?She had battled Grace all her life. She initially thought she had Grace pinned under her thumb. Grace’s only son was exiled and did not even have the right to the inheritance. Who would have known that Grace’s son could turn the tables on his opponents overnight? He had eliminated all of Rose’s sons.Furthermore, he had done it so quietly. She was now a person with no direct lineage. The only status she had living under the Ford residence was Sean Ford’s wife. There was nothing else other than that. At this time, Rose truly did not dare to shelter Frost. She could only pull a long face and watched Frost being chased out with her eyes wide open. Frost covered her hot and spicy face and was chased out of the Ford residence door under the watchful eye of all the household servants in the mansion. “Let’s eat.” Old Madam Ford’s face finally had a smile. Sabrina had the old madam’s protection. Old Master Ford did not even dare to open his mouth
Sabrina said bluntly, “This is your Ford family’s heirloom. I don’t want it.”She felt burdened to take this kind of heirloom. It was like the bracelet that Grace gave her last time. It almost brought her fatal disasters. A few days ago, Sebastian still asked her where the bracelet was.She felt amused in her heart.Since it was hers, could she not do whatever she wanted with it?However, that was not the case. He would question her. He only allowed her to wear it but did not allow her to sell or dispose of it. Fortunately, she was not a greedy person. Six years ago, she had placed the bracelet together with Grace’s ashes. Hence, she could confidently answer that she had kept the bracelet very well when Sebastian asked her a few days ago. However, since this pair was the family heirloom, it would be even more impossible to sell or dispose of it. It would be a burden to wear them. “I’m not greedy for money, and I would not take someone else’s things for no reason. One day
“I know how to protect myself and my mom.”Sabrina was slightly touched when she heard it. She put Aino into her embrace again. “Good baby, I knew that you were doing it all for my sake.”“Mmm, Mommy,” Aino acted cutely in passing and said, “It’s not that I wanted to go to the amusement park every day. When we were at the amusement park yesterday, there was a three-person game that needed three people to be able to play. It had to be Daddy hugging Mummy, then Mummy hugging baby, and we would ride the roller coaster together.”“I wanted to play that yesterday, but Uncle Kingston was not willing to hug Grandma Lewis…”“Pfft..” The driver almost choked himself to death.Kingston was not even 30 years old this year, and Aunt Lewis was in her early 50s. Let him hug Aunt Lewis?The driver looked at his own master with aggrieved eyes. “Kingston, to the amusement park,” said Sebastian.“Yes, Master Sebastian!”Sabrina was speechless.When they were at the amusement park, Sabrina
“I don’t… don’t like it,” Sabrina’s words were a little contradictory to her feelings.She had a feeling as if her private thoughts had been spied on by him. She had never had anything luxurious when growing up. Necessities were already a problem, let alone having any jewelry. The only jewelry she had was given to her by Grace, but she had already placed that by Grace’s tomb.It would be false to say that women did not like gold and silver jewelry.Sabrina was only an ordinary person, so she also liked them.The man dragged her in with both his arms. His cold lips with greenish-black stubbles leaned closer and closer to her. His voice was deep and mellow. “If you didn’t like this bracelet, then why were you appreciating it with such fondness? You… were not being honest.”Sabrina was speechless.“Do you know what kind of method I would use to punish you for not being honest?” Sebastian’s voice was cold. However, it was extremely compelling.Sabrina’s thoughts were all messed
