Sabrina instantly became calm. She did not even look at the woman and buried her head into her work.The woman laughed awkwardly twice, then with a superior tone, she asked Sabrina condescendingly, “Did you know who I am?”Sabrina pinched her nose. “Stand further away!”“Oh, an enigmatic character, and truly able to retain your composure. I’m guessing that you have been through quite a lot, haven't you? Mmm, a total b*tch. Authentication complete!” The woman used a humorous tone to tease Sabrina. After she finished teasing her, she then looked at Sabrina in a calm and composed manner. She was treating Sabrina as a tiny plaything with no autonomic power with that expression and tone. She only wanted to see how she would struggle next. Sabrina would still be just a clown before her eyes, no matter how she struggled.The male colleagues were breaking out a cold sweat for Sabrina. William secretly sent a WhatsApp to his colleague: [Listen, who exactly was this woman? I feel she w
However, it was obvious that Emma was here especially for Sabrina today. Was it because of Ryan that she came to pick a fight today? If not, was she here to help Ruth vent the vexed feeling she had? Sabrina guessed that she should be here because of Ryan. After all, Emma and Ruth also do not have much to do with each other. At this point, Sabrina had no choice but to speak up. Her tone remained calm, “Miss Emma, I am just a poor worker. If you think that I’m not suitable to work here, then I’ll resign immediately.”“No! No! No!” Emma shook her head with a smile. “You’re definitely not as simple as just a poor worker, Miss Scott.”Sabrina frowned. “…What do you mean?”What does Emma know? Emma leaned in on Sabrina’s ear and whispered word by word. “You b*tch truly has a lot of guts. You actually came to my Poole family’s company to work, and you even made one whole set of fake resumes. I think you want to go to jail for the second time?”Sabrina’s face suddenly turned pale.Emma
Sabrina was speechless. To her surprise, it was not because of Ryan. It was the helper that Selene found instead. After so long without Selene’s news, she finally made her move, and she even has such a deadly hold on Sabrina.Sabrina sighed in sorrow. She just sent off Emma, who has successfully come to show her dominance, with her eyes. After Emma left, the office instantly exploded with talks. “Sabrina! Miss Emma is a lady with a very high and important position in the entire Kidon City. I’ll see how you can still fight against her!” Linda degraded Sabrina without even trying to conceal her intentions.“You had been stepping on our Linda these days. This could finally be considered bad retribution for a wicked person like you!”“Sabrina! Do you think you have a king in your house? You even dare to offend Miss Emma, tsk tsk tsk…Seeing your obedient and frightened look now really uplifted my mood, hahaha!”At this moment, even the design director could not help Sabrina. She only
Yvonne felt that her cousin, Kingston, was the personal bodyguard for Sebastian. At least when something happened, her cousin would be able to keep her alive. Yvonne looked at Sabrina seriously. “Sabrina, you are my cousin’s friend. Go find him. My cousin is the driver for Sebastian. Maybe my cousin could help you out.”Sabrina shook her head. “Nobody could help me on this matter.”“Isn’t it just because of Ryan? It wasn’t even you who initiated to look for Ryan. Also, you had not even had a meal with Ryan until now, you haven’t even talked to him much.”Sabrina shook her head. “It’s not because of this, you don’t understand. It’s okay, let’s not talk about it. You don’t have to worry about me. I will be fine. Also, Yvonne, please help me keep this a secret. Do not tell your cousin, Kingston, about this matter, alright?”Yvonne did not understand. “Why can’t I tell him?”Sabrina shook her head. “Your cousin is just a driver. He can’t help me, and it will cause him trouble. I wan
The woman who spoke to Sabrina was someone Sabrina had never seen before. The woman looked rather pretty and the way she dressed was even more luxurious and expensive than Susan’s mother.A Bentley that was worth nearly three million dollars was parked nearby. Sabrina could tell at a glance that this woman was the wife of a rich man.Sabrina could tell how harsh was the tone of the rich lady. However, because of the incident in the morning where Emma had come looking for trouble, Sabrina did not want to have new problems to complicate things. She immediately asked the rich lady in front of her humbly. “May I know which child’s mother you are? I’m sorry that I’ve been too busy these past two days, and I missed out on responding in our small group functions. However, I will attend the party our group is holding. May I know which hotel it would be at, or whose house would it be at? No matter which hotel or whose house, I will pay the amount that is needed, and I will proactively respo
“Mom, I know. She is the mother of my classmate, Mia Collen,” Aino answered in a rush.“Oh…” She was the group admin. Sabrina finally met her today.Sebastian looked at Sabrina irritabl. “Even Aino knows more people than you!”Sabrina was speechless. She did not answer but only looked out the window. Sebastian looked at her. What’s wrong with her today?She had always been quiet, but today was a little abnormal. It was as if her soul had left her body. Just the past two days, she was still meek like a little deer. She would often proactively come looking for him, hide in his covers, and would also bury her face in his neck. She would happily rest on his shoulder. What happened today? Sebastian looked at Sabrina whose mind was wandering, then he raised his hands to touch her forehead. “Are you sick?”Sabrina shivered slightly, then answered him with a delayed reaction. “No…no.”He could tell by his touch that she did not have a fever. Her forehead was cool, and she is not havi
Sabrina's heart sank at his words but she managed to maintain calm on the outside. She avoided looking directly at Sebastian but instead turned to look outside the window. Her expression was indifferent, almost as though she was trapped in her own world and nothing outside that world would interest or affect her. She was likely to remain the same even if there was a knife against her throat. Sebastian had always liked that expression on her and how she sat upright. He reached out an arm to hold her gently from behind her back, Sabrina did not object to it and leaned over towards him like a clingy little kitten. He might have only reminded her not to bother herself with what happened to Emma, but she had read through the texts and understood that his friendship with the Poole Family was simply far too valuable for a woman Sebastian brought home to question anything related to them. There could also be a possibility that he deliberately stayed with the Poole Family in the Kidon City for
The difference in power in their relationship was simply far too big for her to ever escape him. He could care for her, teach her how to drive, get a marriage certificate with her or even take her back to the Ford Residence to announce his claim over her, but when it came back to choosing between his best friend and her, Sabrina knew she was disposable. She remained silent even after they arrived home and left Aino to spend time with Sebastian after dinner, as they always did. She took her phone and went back to the bedroom, before opening the private group chat among parents of the kindergarten Aino went to and started checking all the messages. She didn't have the time to check and now that she had, she noticed that there were people in the group that questioned her worthiness of being added into the chat room. When she had failed to reply, the few mothers that were more active than others began gossiping and said something along the lines of "Aino's mother just keeps quiet wheneve
