Chapter 429
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

Mindy sneered to herself at the other end of the line and then continued saying, “Selene, I didn’t want to tell you about this matter initially, but that woman, Sabrina, came to vent her anger after enduring the annoyance and torture by your fiancé, Master Sebastian.” “She did not only secretly hit on my fiancé but also my cousin, Marcus.”“I’ll tell you a piece of additional information. I heard that she hooked up with the little young master of the Poole family from Kidon City, Master Ryan.” “It was a shame that I didn’t have a chance to stay with the Shaw family, and I was not considered a lady from South City’s eminent families. Therefore, I could only watch as Sabrina, the outlander and the lousy woman, used the cheapest tricks to seduce all men of high society. I could only watch her seduce my fiancé and had no capabilities to do anything about it.”Over on the other end, Selene mocked smugly, “Mindy Mann! What you said was true. You were indeed not considered a lady from a

“Mom, something was not right with you and Dad.” Aino was very good at reading people.Sabrina asked gently, “What’s wrong?”Was something not right with her and Sebastian? When was something ever right between them?They had never been like a normal couple.Should a normal couple not be joking and laughing with each other, sometimes happy, sometimes fight and argue, but most of the time would make amends with each other?However, what about them?She spoke very little, and he did not talk much.She could not guess what was in his mind.She did not know how he would question her next.However, all of that did not matter to Sabrina.On the other hand, the little lady, Aino, said mysteriously to Sabrina, “Mom, do you have a boyfriend outside?”Sabrina was stunned, then she was so exasperated by her daughter that she laughed. “Little thing! How did you know so much at such a young age! What boyfriend? Do you even know what “boyfriend” means? Ah? You little illiterate!”Aino po

“Other than these words, don’t you have other things to say to your man?” The man was acting strange.His tone sounded as if he was scolding her.However, it also sounded like flirting between a husband and wife.He had never spoken to her with such a tone before. Sabrina could not guess what he was thinking, so she lowered her voice slightly and said, “Were you asking me why I would show up at the café with Nigel today?”The man asked her, “Did you want to explain?”Sabrina said, “I don’t.” If she even did, he would not listen, and he would not believe it either. Once, six years ago, they had many misunderstandings between them during the two months when she was taking care of Grace.She tried to explain, but he never gave her a chance.Therefore, she stopped explaining later.The man said, “Then don’t explain.”Sabrina agreed, “Mm.”She asked again, “May I… May I go to my room now?”With a sweeping motion, the man carried her in his arms instead. “You… Didn’t we just…l
Chapter 435
He was once abroad for so many years. He had also gone through fire and water as he was a part of the special forces for more than a decade. He had perfected a steel-like determination. Would he still be afraid of being tickled by his own woman?Sabrina, on the other hand, still looked calm, lonely, and silent on the surface while she was only a pitiful girl wrapped up in many layers after six years.The man sneered. He abruptly got up, hugged her and suddenly started to tickle her underarms.“Oh…” The woman could not stop laughing at once.He only cautioned her not to make a sound this late at night, so she would not disturb their surrounding neighbors’ rest. She also did not dare to laugh out loud and struggled significantly. She could only stuff herself in his embrace to hide. She shamelessly clung onto his strong waist with both hands to prevent his sneak attacks and stuck against his body like an octopus without budging.The man’s arms also followed along and hugged her tig

Sabrina was lying in Sebastian’s arms and did not move. She passively listened to him as he communicated with the other person on the phone. “I know. I would arrange a time to bring her to try it on.”“If there should be any good rubies in the future, keep it too.”“Her fingers are very thin. I’ll bring her to be sized, and we will see.”All the exchanges made on the phone were about “her”.Who could “she” be?Could it be her, Sabrina?A thought flashed past, and Sabrina could not help it and laughed at herself. ‘You’re overthinking.’The man hung up the phone and put it back on top of the bedside table. He lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms. The woman’s smooth yet messy hair spread across his chest, which made her palm-size face even smaller to the point that it was almost invisible.She shut her eyes tightly, and her long and curled eyelashes twitched a little. He could tell that she was not asleep. However, she seemed so calm. She was so calm that sh
