“You witch! I’ll burn you to death! I’ll disfigure your face! Let’s see how you seduce rich men then! How dare you enjoy life when I was suffering! Ever since you got lucky, bad things started happening to me. First, my fiancé declared that he didn’t want me anymore. Then Sebastian ordered everyone to stop working with me and just two days ago, you even humiliated me at the Ford family banquet! You b*tch, I hope you die a painful death! I want to burn off that face of yours!” Despite being restrained by two security guards, Mindy did not stop roaring madly.At the same time, Ryan’s wails of pain also filled the air. "You bitch! You’re so cruel! How could you think of pouring such strong acid on your cousin?! Ouch...it hurts so badly!"The acid had created a hole the size of a palm on Ryan's sleeve. In addition, there was a burn mark, about five centimeters in diameter on his arm now. Ryan, who clearly looked like he was in pain, could only grit his teeth as cold sweat began to roll d

After learning her lesson, Ruth had become more cautious, and would avoid engaging in shameful acts whenever possible. As such, before this incident happened, she wouldn’t even so much as allow Ryan to hold her hand. However, now that she felt indebted to him, Ryan felt as if he had finally conquered the little vixen.Right as he was about to kiss Ruth, Marcus and Yvonne suddenly barged into the room.Marcus was the first to speak. “Ryan, what happened, are you badly injured?”Yvonne, on the other hand, was more concerned about her friend. “Ruth, are you okay? You didn’t hurt your face, did you?”Ruth immediately turned around to look at them with tear-filled eyes. She was clearly despondent. After all, the only people who cared about her wellbeing now were the two new friends she had met not too long ago. On top of that, the one who saved her from disfigurement was her boyfriend, whom she had just agreed to be in a relationship with a few minutes ago.Meanwhile, the people clos

Sebastian’s tone immediately turned solemn as he asked, “What’s wrong?”After making sure Sabrina was queuing in front of them, he said to Sebastian softly, “It’s the Lynn family, something has happened to them.”Before Sebastian could say anything, Kingston continued anxiously, “None of the men we sent to keep watch on the Lynn family has seen them in days. It’s possible that Jade and Selene are afraid to walk out of the house because they’re embarrassed, but even so, Lincoln has work matters to attend to right? Yet throughout the entire afternoon, our men didn’t spot a single one of them leaving or returning. Thinking that it was suspicious, they barged in to take a look and found that all three of them weren’t at home.”Sebastian was clearly frustrated by this piece of news. “… How can this be?! Why are they not home?!” He never expected this at all.“When they were being questioned by our men, the Lynn family servants claimed that the three of them went out on vacation,” Kingst

Both of her parents didn’t know how to react to her request.Meanwhile, the large airport was completely crowded with other travelers. Many of them had recognized Sebastian, but no one dared approach him to ask for photos or socialize. His reputation as a fearsome man did not betray him after all. Yet it was precisely this man who was just about to play rock, paper, scissors with his wife.Kingston, who was standing beside them, immediately covered his mouth. If he didn’t, he would burst out laughing! After overhearing their conversation, he could not help feeling impressed by the Little Princess, who was an expert in torturing her father.Alright! Even the man they called the King of South City was helpless in front of this little girl.Rock, paper, scissors!The director of the Ford Group was about to play rock, paper, scissors with his wife at the airport. On top of that, he had to find a way to cheat.Sebastian knew that even though his daughter had asked the both of them to

Back in South City, Sebastian was in the middle of a meeting.He sat in the middle of the room while Aino lay beside him, fast asleep on the sofa that had been placed there temporarily for her. Sitting opposite him around the long oval table were approximately 30 men and women. They were all his trusted subordinates.Yet, he didn’t hesitate to answer Sabrina’s call in the middle of this tense meeting. He lifted his hand to silence them while speaking into the phone. “Did you manage to book a hotel room yet?”Sabrina answered gently, “Yeah, it’s the best hotel in this county. The bed is almost as big as ours at home, but it just feels empty without you and Aino beside me.”Anyone who knew her would describe Sabrina as an independent woman, one who wasn’t easily affected by solitude. However, for the past few months, their little family had rarely stayed apart. Now that she had to leave her husband and child behind, it was only natural for Sabrina to feel lonely. Because of that, she

"Perfect! Well, you won’t have to kneel on the washboard anymore, but you still need to bring Aino to my side as soon as possible," Sabrina said softly."Alright." Compared to earlier, Sebastian's voice was much more gentle now. Then, he raised his head to look at the thirty subordinates present.None of them dared to even make noise when breathing. There was a rumour that said Master Sebastian may be ruthless when it came to business, but he was absolutely terrified of his wife. This time, they had witnessed it for themselves. Whatever his wife ordered Master Sebastian to do, he would do without question! The rumors were indeed true.“Bye-bye, dear.” After a long call, Sabrina finally bid him goodbye, mainly because she was afraid that she would get in the way of his rest."Be careful, make sure to hire a taxi when you go from the hotel to your old house. Tell the driver you'll pay him two thousand dollars for an entire day’s service and ask him to wait there for you," Sebastian

“Hehe, dear.” Sabrina’s voice sounded from the phone’s speaker again, “Dear… I’m calling you from the hotel’s phone. Once you finish your business in South City and bring Aino here, don’t forget to call this number.”When he heard this, Sebastian’s heart jerked in pain. He could suddenly feel the fear in her heart. Sabrina was usually a very calm and poised person. If she didn’t feel emotionally disturbed, she wouldn’t have called him repeatedly like this. Sebastian’s voice turned even more gentle. “I’ll book the earliest flight and take Aino with me as soon as I can. Remember to get an extra blanket from the hotel at night, it’s much colder up north than here in South City.”“I know.”“Also, push the latch and lock the door before you go to sleep.”“Alright!”“And… if anything happens, call me immediately.”“Of course!”“And…”“Dear! Why do you sound like my nanny?”Sebastian asked, sounding confused, “When did you have a nanny?”“Your daughter! Aino!”He said nothing. Ho

Aino, who was abruptly awakened by the ringtone, climbed onto Sebastian’s lap like a little kitten, listening in on his call while laying down. On the other end, as expected, was Old Master Shaw. “Sebastian… please don’t get angry at me. I was the one who helped Selene and her parents escape to Star Island.”After listening to his confession, Sebastian asked calmly, “Do you know where I am now?”Old Master Shaw remained silent, waiting for him to continue.“I’m currently in my car, and I’m not home yet. My daughter is lying right here beside me. She was sleeping very peacefully, but you woke her up,” Sebastian said with a solemn tone.Old Master Shaw quickly responded, “I didn’t know you had the child with you.”Letting go of the matter, Sebastian asked again, “Why are you calling me?”The old man let out a sigh. “Sebastian, you have a child yourself now. Your heart already aches when I wake her from her sleep, so you must understand how I feel about my own granddaughter. Seein
