Nigel had a look that showed he was very worried about Sabrina.However, Sabrina’s expression was cold and calm instead, “Nigel, about Ruth, I’m sorry.”“No, Sabrina. I am not here for the matter regarding Ruth,” Nigel was eager to explain, and he reached out to hold Sabrina’s arm.Sabrina jerked backwards. Many people were watching in the company. Two female employees passed by and started to whisper and mutter to each other.“Wasn’t that the young master of the Conor family? Nigel Conor, the grandson of the most powerful family, Ford family.”“Miss Ruth’s cousin-in-law, right?”“Gosh, did he have an affair with Sabrina? It is no wonder why Ruth kept calling her a homewrecker. I thought Ruth was being unreasonable and wrongly blamed Sabrina. It turned out…”The two women were discussing with very soft voices, but Sabrina and Nigel could hear everything. Sabrina said, “Could you excuse me for a moment?”Nigel still would not give way. Sabrina really wanted to move a st
“Sabrina, could we talk? If you didn’t want to be in the company and were afraid of being seen, then let’s go out. We could find a café to have a sit. Could we?” Nigel asked eagerly. Sabrina nodded. When she and Nigel got out of the main entrance together, Sabrina subconsciously glanced in the direction where Sebastian’s car was usually parked. Coincidentally, she did not notice Sebastian’s car, and she thought Sebastian was not here yet. Hence, she went to the café across the street with Nigel.“Ten minutes. I only had ten minutes.” Sabrina did not want to make Sebastian wait for her. She also did not want Sebastian to know that she was with Nigel. It would not matter to her if he had found out, but she did not wish to cause any trouble for Nigel either. “Alright, just ten minutes,” said Nigel.The two of them ordered two glasses of water and sat down, then they both spoke simultaneously. “Sabrina, just leave Sebastian.”“Do you have news about my brother?”Nigel was s
Sabrina and Nigel both looked up simultaneously and saw Sebastian with a stern expression. “Sebas…tian,” Nigel was afraid of Sebastian. Six years ago, he was afraid of him when he was a rich playboy. He was still afraid of Sebastian even at this moment. It was the kind of fear that had been ingrained in the bones. Sebastian did not look at Nigel. He only looked at Sabrina. Sabrina was calm and expressionless. Was it not two people hanging out at a café?What was wrong with that? If he had wanted to blame her, even if she did not leave the house, he would have an excuse to do it.There was a saying that if a person wanted to charge another, they would always be able to find a way for it!The man’s gaze warmed up and asked caringly, “Did your stomach not hurt anymore?”Sabrina was stunned.“Yesterday, at the old residence, what did you say about yourself?” asked Sebastian. Sabrina’s face instantly flushed red.She had already forgotten about the lie yesterday. How c
Kingston said, “Madam, I…”After pausing for a while, he said straightforwardly, “Madam, Master Sebastian was quite serious about you. He said those words yesterday, but he was only going along with your words and teasing you. He had been so used to being indifferent that even when he teased someone, he still had that deadly cold tone.”“Master Sebastian went to the old residence yesterday, not for the sake of the little princess, but he simply wanted to introduce you.”Sabrina did not say anything.She did not want to distinguish the true or false elements in Kingston’s words. She had a good impression of him, but she also clearly knew that Kingston was Sebastian’s right hand man.She only smiled at Kingston politely and said, “I know.”There were no other words. Sabrina was a person who could maintain her composure very well. When she did not want to speak, even if Kingston were to pry with pliers, he would not be able to pry her mouth open. Kingston sensibly shut his mout
Nigel looked at Sebastian in a daze. “Sebastian, I’m begging you. You didn’t like her anyway, you…”His words were interrupted by Sebastian. “Nigel, my patience had a limit. To me, kinship was only applicable to your aunt. However, apart from your aunt, your uncle even had no place in my heart, let alone you.” “You’d better remember this. Don’t use the family relations between us to deplete my patience with you!”“To compete for a woman with me?”“You still have to see if you have the means to compete with me!”“However, as your cousin, I would inform you of this. Since you did not cherish her once and had lost her once, then you could only find a way to keep her by your side. You didn’t even have the way to keep her around, but I had.” “That could only mean that I was more capable and had more means than you.”“Think carefully before you do anything in the future!”“This would be the last chance I’m giving you!”Nigel was speechless. He watched with his eyes widened as Se
His grandpa on the other end of the line immediately said with an angry grunt, “Hmph! Don’t mention that woman! Once she was mentioned, I hate that I couldn’t beat her to death with a stick!”“Grandpa, what did that woman do again?” Nigel went along with Henry’s words and asked.“Her? A leopard would not change its spots. Six years had passed, and she was still the same woman who cheated everywhere and wanted to make illegitimate profit from the high society. She cheated yesterday and took the Ford family heirloom, the pair of chrismatite, away from us.” “Who would blame your grandmother for this?”“She was over 90 years old, so she would be confused! To our surprise, she gave a precious thing to such a woman!”Nigel used a coaxing tone to speak to his grandpa, “Maybe, my cousin sincerely wanted to marry her.”“Your cousin?” Henry sneered. “A person who was that condescending? Would he want such a rotten piece of sh*t? A person as vicious as him would never want that woman! I re
Mindy viciously pointed her finger at Nigel and cursed, “Nigel Conor! You were so reluctant when I asked you to take care of my Grandpa Shaw with me. It was fine if you were not willing to take care of my Grandpa Shaw, but you came back to find that outlander, Sabrina Scott! That rotten and unwanted outlander who was about to be tortured to death by Sebastian! Nigel Conor, what did you take me, Mindy Mann, for?”Nigel glared at Mindy, “You followed me!”Mindy said with a catch in her throat, “I didn’t want to follow you, but I know you still had that vixen in your mind the whole time. I only wanted to see what exactly you were going to do after returning to South City. It turned out you really came to find that b*tch!”Slap! Nigel lifted his hand and fiercely slapped Mindy. “Woman! If you dared to curse Sabrina again, I would slap you until you’re disfigured!”Mindy was speechless. She covered her face and looked at Nigel. She said with a choke, “You…You actually slapped me?”
She wanted to become Mrs. Conor.Her status could only be consolidated in South City if she had the title of Mrs. Conor.She wanted to marry Nigel, but Nigel’s heart had still been thinking about that b*tch, Sabrina, until now!The b*tch made Mindy hated her so much that she wanted to tear her into a million pieces. When Sabrina first came to work at the architecture design firm, Mindy had already heard from Ruth. However, Mindy did not tell her cousin, Ruth, that Sabrina was the woman who had been despised by the high society six years ago and formed a grudge with Sebastian later on. All the news regarding the incident from six years ago had been blocked from the public—however, a few people from high society knew about it.Especially Sabrina. There were not many people who had seen the face of Sabrina. Mindy did not tell Ruth that Sabrina was the woman from six years ago because she wanted to keep Sabrina in the company. Mindy wanted to wait until after she was done taking ca
