Mary stared at Sebastian, tongue-tied, “You…Leader…what are you saying?” She realized her tongue was rolled up in her mouth and would not unfurl no matter how hard she tried.Sebastian repeated himself, “What did you say my wife was earlier?”“I…I…” Mary stuttered and did not dare to speak anymore. She looked at her husband Sean, and he too was shocked stupid.The small crowd gathered behind Sebastian were also shocked stupid. Mary turned and looked at Sabrina, then said to Sebastian, “This…this…woman…no…no…I mean…I don’t know your wife…What I meant to say was…this woman, since young…she had been stealing since she was twelve….and…later on, she quit school and headed down south, she…had been selling...selling…”“She’s my wife.” Sebastian interrupted Mary.Plop! Mary fell to the floor in a heap.She did not know the man in front of her, but she had seen the Ford Group’s official website. She even asked Coral for confirmation, and Coral told her those were all gimmicks to trick the publ
However, the man in front of her eyes was as warm and gentle to his wife as the soft spring breeze. It was like a 40 degree warm bathwater.Mary forgot that she was on death’s door for a moment. All she thought about was how her husband never treated her this way throughout the seven, eight years they were married.The good man in front of her made her inexplicably jealous.Whoever married this man would experience life as if she had been dipped in a jar of honey.It was not only Mary. The small crowd following behind Sebastian were completely dazed.After witnessing the words and actions of Sebastian and his daughter with their own two eyes, they were sure that the current leader of the Ford Group, Sebastian Ford, was indeed afraid of his wife.The rumors on the internet were true.By then, Sebastian was standing in front of Sabrina, hugging her with an arm, “Why? Did you not dare to have dinner here if there were so many people? Our eldest princess has always remained calm and co
Two people burst into the room the moment the voice was heard.A man and a woman, both dressed luxuriously.They looked to be in their 50s.When Sabrina saw the couple, fury and contempt filled her expression.That was right!Mary Smith’s parents that barged into the room were Yuri Smith and Fany Long.Yuri had yet to retire, but he was not holding as important a position as he used to. Now, he is in charge of logistics, but even so, in this small town, his connections and influence were unmatched. His words were not only law in this small county town, but even in the city, or the provincial capital, he could exert his influence.Otherwise, how could his daughter, someone who barely graduated middle school and had three or four abortions, land the best position? How could she even marry a university graduate and enjoy such noble status?What a joke!Did he take Yuri Smith for a joke?In this tiny, dead town, not many people dared hurt a hair on his head!However, half an hour ago, his
Yuri laughed coldly at Sabrina, and his features were distorted by fury, “You little b*tch! Don’t think that you used the money you earned from selling your body all these years and that you’ve succeeded now! Let me tell you! One of Mary’s classmates is a high school teacher. She graduated from a famous university and came back to be a teacher. However, she ignored my little Mary and thought that she’s too proud and haughty for her. What do you think happened to her?!“She’s an escort, just like you!”“An under-the-table one too!”“Whoever my Mary asked her to serve, she wouldn’t dare say no!”“Even more obedient than a dog!”“You!”“You dared to bully my little Marry, here, on my land!”“Watch out! I would skin you alive, and crush your bones to dust today!”With that, Yuri rushed forward, wanting to hit Sabrina.However, before he could take a single step, he was tripped by his own son-in-law.Yuri instantly fell and hit the ground with a loud crack.Fany, who was behind him, did not
“Your wife?” Yuri asked as the words exploded out of his mouth.Fany was shocked stupid. She pointed at Sabrina, “She…how could she be your wife? She was practically a beggar. She stayed with us when she was younger, with a head full of lice and shoes filled with holes. I washed her hair and bought her pretty clothes, but she stole our family’s…”“You liar! I hope your whole family dies a gruesome death!” A sharp and pitiful voice drifted in from outside the room at that moment.Everyone immediately looked outside.The high school teacher was standing right outside.“You…” Mary, who was kneeling on the floor, turned and looked toward the entrance, “Molly Homme, are you rubbing salt into my wounds right now?”Molly laughed viciously, “Bah! Mary Smith, if I could, I would like to tear you shreds right now! My biggest wish is to see your entire family die!”Mary was speechless.Molly suddenly started crying, “Yuri Smith, Fany Long, do you know why I sent this photo to you? Do you know how
“I beg you, please stop…” Yuri looked at Sabrina beggingly. He was worried once Sabrina said that the man beside him would break three of his ribs with a kick.Sabrina looked at Yuri, “Please stop? Uncle Smith, are you trying to escape? Do you think the fact that you broke three of my ribs is something inconsequential and not worth mentioning?”Yuri was silent.“Yes! Actually, I don’t think it’s worth mentioning either.”Sabrina shrugged, laughing lightly.Her words threw everyone present into a daze.“Back then, I was only twelve, very young. I didn’t have the power to resist. Later, when I grew up, I chose to forget everything about my past, especially such painful memories. Which child would want to remember that three of her ribs were once broken with a kick, she was shaved bald, and that her head was smeared with dung? I didn’t want to remember any of those humiliating moments.”“I didn’t want to.”“I never thought about taking revenge.”“No need. It was not worth it.”“I returned
The entire room fell silent the moment Sabrina’s words left her mouth.They finally understood why she wanted her daughter to leave the room.Mary fell on the floor in a heap, scared out of her mind. She instantly urinated on the floor.An odd smell spread across the room suddenly.Sabrina pinched her nose, “Dear, I have a sensitive nose…”Sebastian stood up and said to everyone present, “You should all leave.”He held Sabrina and left. As he walked, he asked Sabrina gently, “Are you hungry? We could order room service, whatever you want.”Sabrina answered, “I’m hungry, dear.”Behind her, Mary shouted, “Sabrina, you’re so cruel!”Sabrina, who was smiling sweetly a second ago, turned to her and snorted, “Cruel? Compared to your hatred for me throughout the years, falsely accusing me of thieving, smearing dung on my head, your father breaking three of my ribs with a kick. Compared to how you turned your innocent classmate, a high school teacher, into your tool to gain power and influence
“Thank you.” Sabrina and Sebastian both turned and left. On the other side, Kingston and Aino were both back from their trip to buy sweets.The family of three and Kingston walked to the elevators when they heard a ruckus coming out of the room.“You evil family, I want to skin all of you alive!”“Hit her!”“Hit her until she can’t walk!”“Miss Homme, come here. We’ll hold her down. You could hit her on the face! This shameless piece of sh*t! How could she force you to become a prostitute? Take off all of her clothes and throw her into the streets naked!”“Ouch…”“Oww…”The door to the room was closed.Both Sabrina and Sebastian did not want to know what happened in the hotel or how serious things became. The three of them and Kingston ate a simple but happy dinner in their hotel room, then slept fitfully all through the night and woke around 7 am for breakfast. They then packed their luggage, and Sabrina carried the urn that had her father’s ashes.When they left the elevator and wal
