Next to the entrance, Marcus turned around and saw Mindy, still frozen in place where Selene once stood. She stood alone, her eyes socket sank deeply into her skin, giving her the resemblance of a sewer rat."You ugly troll! You were bullying my mommy at the door just now, why are you still here? Aren't you sisters with that other troll? She is already gone, why aren't you gone too?" Aino confronted her sharply within her great-grandfather's arms.Mindy couldn't respond in any way. She simply looked at Marcus with an unspoken plea in her eyes. Marcus, on the other hand, stared back fiercely. The judgment and contempt was undeniable in his eyes. Mindy's heart sank into despair at the realization that her cousin had lost any form of sympathy for her."Cousin Marcus..." she tried again."Don't call for me!" He rejected her plea in an instant.Tears welled up in Mindy's eyes as she struggled to call out again. "Grandpa Shaw..."The old Master Shaw didn't have the heart to ignore her.

Kingston nodded seriously. "Yes.""Do not tell Sabrina about this just yet," Sebastian commanded expressionlessly."I understand, Master Sebastian, but...Mrs. Ford said she wanted to go back to her hometown a few days ago, and now...""Everything will go as she planned. She hasn't been back for a long time now, it's normal that she wants to go pay a visit. I'll go with her, maybe then I'll be able to pick up some hints on this.""Yes, Master Sebastian! I'll take my leave now," said Kingston. Though his cousin was here as a guest, he still felt that it would be inappropriate for an assistant like him to remain in the hall unless he was summoned.After Kingston left, Sabrina leaned over to Sebastian curiously. "What happened?"Sebastian paused for a moment before explaining, "I asked Kingston to send the old Master Shaw and Marcus back. He came back to report to me that Marcus refused his offer and will send his grandfather home himself.""Oh...""Do you hate him?"Sabrina shrug

The lady wasn't lying. A beauty like her would look great in anything."Hehe! Aunty, I'm giving you my medicine candy!" Aino jumped up and down cheerfully and propped herself up, trying to deliver the candy into the lady's mouth.The lady instinctively blurted out, "Little princess, is this candy a soft one or a hard one?""It's hard on the outside and soft on the inside," Aino whispered mischievously.The lady instantly understood her intention and refused to become yet another victim of her prank. She placed the candy into her mouth gingerly and bit down. "Oh...it really is soft! Really sweet, too!""Hahaha! I wasn't tricking you, aunty!" Aino laughed smugly."Mm...very sweet!" The lady replied, and she wasn't simply referring to the candy. The Ford couple and their little princess had filled the air with sweetness from the way they interacted with one another. Though there had been incidents at the very beginning, the party ended on a good note.The family banquet had introd

Amused by the interaction, Kingston let out a laugh. He tried to hold it in but didn't manage to do so. He choked and started coughing hysterically, which woke the little princess who was deeply asleep just moments ago."Uncle Kingston, what are you laughing at?" Aino asked dazedly."I- I wasn't laughing, just coughing," Kingston explained, still trying to catch his breath."You are obviously coughing because of laughing too hard. Is there something funny? Tell me so I can laugh too."Kingston remained quiet as he tried to think of an excuse.But the little princess was determined. "Mommy, what was Uncle Kingston laughing about?"Sabrina blushed a crimson brighter than even the color one would see on melted metal. She buried her face into the crook of Sebastian's neck and refused to answer the question."Fine!" Aino lifted an eyebrow at her father wordlessly.Finally, Sebastian caved and answered, "Your mom said she is going to pamper me.""That's what Uncle Kingston was laughing about

"Mention his name in front of me again and I'll break his legs and throw him into a coursing river," Sebastian deadpanned.Both Sabrina and Kingston were stunned.Kingston glanced back helplessly and thought to himself, "Mrs. Ford, you...how could you...You have been with Master Sebastian for some time now, you know that he is a henpecked man, but how do you miss the fact that he also gets jealous very easily?"Sabrina gaped at the man next to him in disbelief. She couldn't comprehend the tenderness he showed towards her today, especially when he put her heels on for her for everyone to see. She felt like she was walking on clouds, wondering how it was possible for a man to be so gentle and caring. But at this moment, it was almost as though he was possessed by another spirit. No. This was his true self! The man who lovingly put her shoes on for her, who walked around with his arm wrapped around her waist and stood up for her was not him!Frustrated, Sabrina turned around and sulke

Tonight would be the night that he punished her. But instead of a punishment, it was more like a gift. In the end, even he himself didn’t know whether he was punishing her or the other way round. Perhaps it could be a reward, in a way?“Should I carry you to the bathroom for a shower?” he asked her gently.“No! I just showered.”After a few seconds, Sebastian said, “Come on, be a good girl. I haven’t showered yet.”“No!”Sebastian sighed. “Have you forgotten what you promised Yvonne and Ruth this morning? That you’ll bring Aino shopping with them. You are not allowed to go tomorrow if you continue to insist. So be a good girl.”Sabrina was speechless. How could he say that? She was so angry that she wanted to bite him hard on the shoulder, however, she was reluctant to bite him hard. In the end, she gave in and let him carry her to the bathroom.“Who said I can’t handle someone like you!” Sebastian teased. Sabrina wasn’t sure how to respond.“Turn over!” he ordered.“Hmph, I’m

Sebastian was confused. Was she dreaming that he was washing her feet? He couldn’t help laughing. How dare she! He took a blanket and covered both of them. Then, he took a nice picture of them with his phone. In an instant, the photo was posted on the Ford Group’s official website, with the caption, “Goodnight”.His happiness was brought by the mother-daughter duo. Making Sabrina and Aino happy, that was what he wanted to do his whole life. Tonight, many who slept late had witnessed the happiness of the director of the Ford Group. Some wished for their happiness while others cursed them. The Lynn family was definitely cursing them. It was a sleepless night for them. More precisely, Lincoln, Jade and Selene were sleepless after they got kicked out from the Ford mansion.“You piece of thrash! At the party, you started to pity Sabrina, didn’t you?” Jade lashed out at Lincoln.Lincoln glared at Jade angrily. “Isn’t it normal for me to pity her? Look at what you and your daughter did.

Lincoln and Jade looked at Selene. At that moment, Selene was very calm. Her eyes were vicious. “Daddy, Mum, there’s no chance of redemption for us whatever we do. If that’s true, why not cause more trouble?”Even a cornered dog would jump over the wall. The same went to Selene. She was clear about what she would do. If she were to continue to stay in South City, she had no chance of marrying Sebastian, and she might even lose her life. There was nothing more important than her own life.She told Lincoln and Jade her plan and both were shocked after listening to her plan. Recovering, Lincoln asked, “Are you sure this would work? We are not familiar with the place, plus…”“Daddy, we will die eventually if we continue to stay here doing nothing,” Selene interrupted. “Or, perhaps you don’t want to leave Sabrina?”Lincoln immediately refuted. “That’s impossible! Every minute and every second of the day, she wants me dead. Why would I want to stay with her?”Selene smirked. “Good then.
