Chapter 62
Burning the midnight oil to design drafts was Sabrina's favorite hobby and was also the major she had studied in university. Her encounter with Aunt Grace in prison had been most fruitful as Aunt Grace was a professional in architecture; the two clicked right off the bat with most of their conversations focusing on the subject. Aunt Grace was experienced in the field and had taught Sabrina much within the two years they spent together in prison, which was the reason why Sabrina managed to enrich her knowledge on the field despite being in prison.She completed the drafts of her proposal by herself in three days, utilizing the time she had after work. What set her apart was that she had drafted the designs by hand, as she didn't have access to a computer. In the bedroom that was hardly spacious to begin with, crumbled papers of her drafts began to surround her feet as the night went by.The next day, she woke up late as she had overslept and rushed out to work, forgetting to close the

"Please get out of the way!" Sabrina demanded in disgust, not bothering to cast a look at the woman in front of her. She never liked girls from wealthy backgrounds, always sticking their noses to where they didn't belong. Mindy blocked Sabrina's way and continued to ask, "You are in desperate need of money?""Mind your own business!" Sabrina retorted."I know you are just another girl who wants to climb your way to the top but has no clue how you could go about doing that. Choosing to be one of the waitresses at the banquet that the Ford family held for the purpose of finding Master Sebastian a wife, and using that as a stepping stone was quite ambitious. Unfortunately, you only ended up being used by Sebastian."Sabrina had no intention of wasting her time with this woman and wanted nothing more than to leave with all the food she had bought, but was helpless with Mindy blocking her way at the entrance."You have good taste," Mindy carried on, "to have picked out my cousin Marcu

"Why are you helping me?" Sabrina asked."Helping you? Haha!" Mindy laughed in contempt and said, "Why would I help you? I'll be very honest with you, you are prettier than most girls around, and you just kind of ooze like the type of cheap skank that men are naturally drawn to. Master Sebastian kissed you in public and my cousin had taken the initiative to talk to you. Both are proof that you are a woman who has the ability to seduce men of the elite community! I asked for you to play the role, so that my cousin, Master Sebastian and the others can see you for who you are. A cheap, disgusting low-born."Sabrina looked at Mindy as she finally realized what the woman had in mind, she wanted for Sabrina to make a fool of herself at the banquet. But to Sabrina, what was there to fear if there was money to be earned out of it?"Okay! I'll take it!" Sabrina answered decisively."It's settled then!" Mindy smiled.Sabrina did not return the smile and turned to leave without another look

"Who I am does not concern you. What matters is that I will never allow a woman like you to approach my grandson!" The Old Master Shaw scanned Sabrina up and down as he spoke. The sallow skin of the woman before him oozed exhaustion and it was clear that she was experienced with men. The makeup on her face could barely conceal her inferiority and the thick foundation on her face seemed to fall apart every time Sabrina spoke. All that with the outfit she was wearing had her looking like the definition of streetwalkers itself.‘How dare a woman like this try to seduce a man from the Shaw Family?’ he thought."Oh my, Grandpa Shaw, what a coincidence. What brings you here?" Mindy made a point to keep her tone surprised as she pretended to have finally caught sight of the old Master Shaw. She couldn't help but cast a glance over to Sabrina triumphantly and patted herself on the shoulders in her mind for creating such a masterpiece. She had Sabrina dressed in the custom with that makeup an

The old Master Shaw stood trembling in fury and was at a loss of words. It was not until Sabrina went into the fitting room when he finally said furiously, "I will have Marcus cut all ties with you! Don't you even think about getting any money off of him!" And with that, he turned and left.Mindy walked over to Sabrina with a pretentious smile and explained, "So sorry about that, Sabrina. I didn't mean for that to happen. I have no idea why my grandfather would come all the way here, maybe one of the servants had told him about this. Grandfather has been furious these past two days when he caught news that Brother Marcus has associated himself with some skank of unknown background, so he had been paying attention to where Brother Marcus and I go..."Her explanation was full of contradictions but Sabrina did not react to it. She looked at Mindy calmly and said, "I don't care about that. All I care about is that I get to work on that day at the cruise party and I get my ten thousand do

Before Sebastian's eyes was a blueprint that was drawn to perfection by hand, filled with detailed annotations around the edges in neat writings. The one in his hands was extremely similar to the one he had found outside Sabrina's room a few days ago, the only differences were that the draft he found was not as elaborated as the current one; and there had been a few amendments made to perfect it."Who brought this in?" Sebastian turned to ask the assistant next to him."Oh, this was brought in by the Conor Group director's assistant, Miss...Miss Scott.""Take me to her right now!" Sebastian commanded immediately."Yes, Director Ford."The assistant led Sebastian out from the meeting room and explained along the way, "Director Ford, Miss Scott is waiting at the reception so you should be able to see her right away.""Sure," Sebastian responded.Sabrina, who was previously waiting at the reception, was startled when she caught on to Sebastian's voice. ‘Why is it him?’ she thought.

"That bumpkin works way faster than those middle-age helpers out there, she is young and obedient. Have you ever heard a word coming out of her mouth the entire day so far. She just kind of runs errands for us buying lunch, milk tea, snacks and stuff, isn't that great?""I guess, but that face of hers is just too seductive. Haven't you realized that she looks prettier than both of us?""Pretty my ass! Haven't you seen what she has been wearing? She wore the same outfit three days in a row, I bet the clothes on her don't even cost above fifty bucks!""Hehe, hush! Here she comes."The people in the office immediately stopped their gossiping as soon as they saw Sabrina approaching. Sabrina had heard every single word, but she simply didn't care. Nothing mattered to her other than having a job and getting paid. She tidied up her belongings and remained silent for the rest of the day. She left the office the minute her shift was over and headed to Grace's ward to keep her company. Sabri

Nigel strolled over to Sabrina and said, "Sabrina, your nose is as sharp as bloodhound. How did you know that all the rich people are gathering here?"Sabrina did not address his sarcasm directly but instead smiled and asked, "Master Nigel, it's been a few days since I last saw you. Have you come by the office in the past few days?""You miss me?" Nigel asked."That's not...""Well, then why are you here?" Nigel's tone was slowly becoming slightly assertive but somehow remained cynical. "I haven't shown up in the office because I was busy arranging this cruise party. This is going to be a grand gathering with every single elite of the South City attending, obviously I have to be hands-on with the details."Sabrina was slightly taken aback and said, "I...I didn't come here looking for you.""No?" Nigel casted her a lopsided smile as he looked at Sabrina dressed in cheap clothing. "Don't tell me that you are here today for Master Shaw? If that's the case, I hate to break it to you,
