When the old woman had first encountered Kingston, she instantly jumped in fright.However, after listening to his explanation and the purpose of his investigation, the old woman began to calm down. As Kingston spoke of Sabrina’s mother, she could not help but sympathise and shed a tear for her. “That’s a good woman. She might have looked uncultured and lacked my madam’s extravagance, but I could tell that the woman was incredibly well mannered. She would act very elegantly, just like an heiress of a rich and powerful family, and was very kind to me as well.“At my age, I couldn't bear to do something so hurtful.“Realising that saving a life was much more meaningful than obtaining all the riches in the world, I decided to risk my job to help that woman escape.”“However, I never contacted her after that. Being the old lady she was, she naturally did not know how to work her way around a mobile phone, while I couldn’t afford one myself. As such, we never had any way to communicat

She only saw Sebastian sitting up right suddenly and so asked, “What is it Sebastian? What’s that about a homeless woman?”Sebastian shook his head, saying, “It’s nothing.” He then dismissed the guard and hung up the call.After that, he held onto Sabrina tightly.Being enveloped in Sebastian’s embrace once again, Sabrina momentarily decided not to ask about anything else, simply burying her face into his arms.In the meantime, she didn’t notice that Sebastian was busy exchanging a look with his driver.Kingston had been Sebastian’s personal bodyguard for over ten years.As such, regardless of whatever it was that the young master wanted or needed, he could tell from a single look.At that moment, Kingston understood that the young master was ordering him to send someone immediately to look into that vagabond.When they heard the security guard’s call,

Sabrina nodded.Sabrina slept very well in the hotel that afternoon.It was already nighttime when she woke up.When she opened her eyes, she did not see her husband or daughter.Sabrina thought that Aino must have dragged Sebastian downstairs to walk around, possibly to buy something.At that moment, her phone rang again. Sabrina trembled. The call earlier in the day was from Selene. Would it be Selene’s call again?If it were, Sabrina would not be able to keep her calm.Hence, she decided not to answer.Sabrina ignored her ringing phone and did not answer it.In the end, not a minute later, the phone rang again.She took the phone and answered it with a conflicted look on her face, “Hello!”“What is it, Sabrina?” On the other end was Yvonne’s gentle and concerned voice.“Yvonne, it’s you! Why did you suddenly think about calling me at this time?” Hearing Yvonne’s voice, Sabrina was in a much better mood. She was very pleasantly surprised.“You weren’t in the company the

It was Sabrina who bumped into the person, and she even stepped on that woman’s foot.Hence, she frantically apologized, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry! Does your foot hurt after I stepped on it?”The woman disdainfully measured Sabrina, and her tone sounded like she was talking down to an animal, “You have your pajamas on, and your hair is so unkempt. Where did you come from?! Did you come to sell your body? Someone like that stepping on my foot? Do you have any diseases or illnesses? Ah… How disgusting, go away, go away, go away!”The woman pinched her nose before retreating a few steps, continuing to berate Sabrina, “Woman, distance yourself from me! You were so smelly when you talked to me! Get away from me! I’m so disgusted!”Sabrina was speechless.She looked up and looked at the woman properly.The woman seemed to be around thirty. She had chestnut-coloured hair, and her hair was properly taken care of. However, her skin was a little dark, and it was possibly because of the weather

She suddenly felt that the woman looked a little familiar.However, she could not remember who that woman was at all.She would have met that woman when she was younger, but now they have grown up and changed.“Who on earth are you?” Sabrina asked calmly.“Mary Smith!” The woman smiled coldly, “You don’t even remember me. You really are an ungrateful person!”Mary Smith?She kept crossing paths with her enemies.Yes, the woman in front of her was Mary.When she was small, Mary’s family stayed in the county. Her parents were both officials. Mary was at the peak of nobility within the company in terms of status.Meanwhile, Sabrina was the most unremarkable commoner in the county.She was worth even less than a commoner.It was because Sabrina’s family was extremely poor when she was younger.Sabrina stayed in the county village and did not have any interactions with Mary.However, when Sabrina was twelve, the best school in the county held exchange sessions for the students

The twelve-year-old girl’s face swelled after being hit, and a glaring imprint of five fingers could be seen.Sabrina was so scared she did not even dare to cry.She only looked at Mary’s parents with shock and horror.She did not want to come to a rich person’s house.She needed to take care of her father after school every day and carry water for her mother on top of all her homework.However, that family chose her. If she did not attend that experiential activity, she would not even be able to hand in her homework. On top of that, her father would not obtain the thirty bucks that were handed out to the poor for medical expenses every month.Sabrina came under her mother’s advice.She did not think that the family would be so fierce, but Sabrina did not dare to tell her parents out of worry that she would hurt them.After Mary’s mother slapped her, she was consoled, “Little girl, I’m doing this for your own good. You’re a little girl from the countryside. You don’t understand

The twelve-year-old kid curled up on the floor after being kicked, and fresh blood was flowing out from her mouth.She did not know what was wrong with Mr. and Mrs. Smith.Has she performed very well?“Get lost! You lowly filth! Get lost! Get out of my house right now!” In the night, a twelve-year-old girl was chased out of the Smith house.Sabrina walked back home from the county alone. It was already twelve in the night when she reached her home.Her father, who was lying on the bed, and her mother, who was still laboring away, looked on as their daughter came back in the dead of night. Her little face was pale as traces of blood remained on her lips. Their hearts ached as their chests tightened. Her father tumbled out of bed.“My daughter! My daughter! Who dared to bully my daughter?!” Her father slammed his fist on the floor, and the skin broke as blood flowed out.Sabrina calmly looked at her parents, “Is Mary not here?”Her mother cried as she shook her head, “She’s a
