Sebastian instantly turned to look out of the window too.Kingston applied the emergency brake. “Where?” Sebastian asked her gently.Sabrina rubbed her eyes, “I…”Where was the figure?Why was it gone?She did not even blink. Why was it gone?Sebastian did not say anything.He raised his arm and pulled her into him, planting a kiss on the top of her head, “Sometimes, no news is good news. Your mother is a strong woman. Last time, when your father was ill, your mother could even withstand all the pressure and survive. When Lincoln Lynn locked her up, she knew how to touch people’s hearts and made the Lynn family servant release her.”“That showed your mother wouldn’t buckle under life’s harsh realities so easily.”“Weren’t you the same? Never willing to bow to destiny?”Sabrina nodded, “Alright, I know.”Sabrina felt her mood lighten because of her husband’s comforting words.That’s right. No news was the best news.After they returned home, it was not time for dinner yet. Sabrina and
“In this case, find a good burial spot for Sabrina’s father as soon as possible.”“Yes, Master Sebastian.”After ending the call, Sebastian sat on the rocking chair alone on the topmost floor and closed his eyes for some rest.The issues with Sabrina’s hometown were now settled. Only the island was left.His mother, Grace, came from a wealthy family on the island. However, the change in power structure on the island sacrificed his mother’s family. Although his mother’s entire family lost all their family and escaped to the mainland, the leader of the island chased his mother’s family to the mainland. Fortunately, Old Master Shaw saved his mother back then, and she survived.However, his mother’s family, her parents, brother and sister-in-law, and their children were killed. His mother was left all alone in this world. When she was sad and grieving, his stepmother used her, and she became his father’s mistress and gave birth to him.If their families’ wealth were taken into account, his
Although his willpower was immensely strong, at the sight of the woman’s clear, bright eyes and her beautiful body, he could not help swallowing.“Come on,” she called out to him shyly.She hardly took the initiative with him. She was still considered a novice in the matters of seduction. She was so used to acting cold and distant that she did not know much about seduction techniques.However, she was willing to reward him for once, to thank him for everything he did for her in her hometown.When he was in the shower, she had been preparing for a long while. Her mind flipped through the various scenes in the numerous movies and dramas she watched. Finally, after much contemplation, she remembered a certain scene.She found this piece from the mountain of lingerie that he gifted her.To be honest, she had blushed when she put it on.She had never worn such a sexy piece of clothing.Everything that he gave her, whether it was jewelry or clothes or bags, were extremely luxurious items.I
Sebastian, “…”“Did I say you were a pig?”“When did I say you were a pig?”“If you were a pig, that would make me a pig too!”She laughed for a while, then opened her mouth again, “I think it would be better if we have another three children. Another girl to give Aino a little sister and another two boys, this way, they would each have a company with two boys and two girls. What do you think, dear?”A hint of longing entered Sebastian’s tone, “It would be good no matter whether we have boys or girls. If we had three more boys, Aino would have many brothers to protect her. She would be so happy when she grows up. If they were all girls, we would have four little princesses in our family, I’m sure they would all be beautiful when they grow up.”“Yeah!” Sabrina nodded happily, “I don’t mind having boys or girls, as long as they’re our children, we could always have more anyway.”Sebastian, “…”He realized; motherhood was an addictive drug.She was saying she did not want to become a pig
“Sabrina!” Selene’s proud and elegant voice sounded on the other end of the phone.Sabrina was silent.She did not take a close look at the incoming number, but she was certain it was not Selene’s phone number. Hearing her voice, Sabrina placed the phone closer to her eyes and took a look. She then realized the number looked very odd. It was two to three digits shorter than domestic numbers.What was happening?“Where are you now?” Sabrina was a smart woman, and she seemed to know what was going on.“You must have guessed. I’m overseas now!” Selene said proudly.Sabrina was speechless.She did not expect that.Her mind was lost for a long moment. Finally, she stuttered and was unable to produce a coherent sentence, “…”On the other end, Selene could guess Sabrina must be shocked. Her tone turned even more boastful, “Sabrina, yesterday you said your cousin Coral is dead. I knew that’s true. I know, you said you hated my father and me. I knew you must have hated me so much, haha!
“I’ve survived yet again.”“So, say, do you think lady luck has returned to me once again?”Sabrina sneered, “What are you trying to say?”“What I’m trying to say is, maybe your husband might become my husband in the future.”“Alright, I think I know where you are,” Sabrina replied.“Yeah? Did your husband tell you where I am?” Selene asked.“No,” Sabrina’s voice became calmer, “My husband was so busy for the past two days, he hasn’t had the chance to tell me yet, but I already know where you are. You are on star island, right? You and your parents escaped to Star Island.”Selene, “You b*tch! You’re as smart as always! You guessed it!”“Thank you for the compliment!”Selene was silent.“Revenge is a dish best served cold! It’s easy for you to escape to Star Island, but not so easy to leave, am I right? Easy peasy. One day, I’ll go straight to Star Island. You’re practically served on a platter.” Sabrina said, her tone light and carefree.“Ha! You don’t have the power to do so!”“I don’
Sabrina smiled slightly, raised her eyes and looked at Sebastian, “There’s a reason behind this, right?”Sebastian paused.He knew she was smart. She could almost read and understand everything with a mere glance.“Huh?” He looked at her, confused.“Selene and her family…they escaped, and they even ran away to Star Island?” Sabrina asked.Sebastian nodded, “Yes.”Sabrina said, “Two days ago, you were supposed to board the plane with me back to my hometown, but you changed your mind at the airport. Was that because you had to attend to this urgent matter of the Lynn's escaping?”“Yes.”“Was Old Master Shaw the one who helped them escape?” Without the old man’s help, Sabrina knew the Lynn’s could never escape to the island.Sebastian was glad his wife was so smart, “You guessed everything…”Sabrina’s tears gushed out of her eyes, and she buried her head into his chest.The stab of pain caused by the family betrayal was agonizing.Sebastian held her face and asked, “Have you wondered abou
“Dad!” The man shouted clearly, “Don’t worry, entrust Sabrina to me. I will take care of her for the rest of our lives.”Hearing his promise, Sabrina was stunned.She suffered through countless tribulations not too long ago, all to build a home for herself.To ensure her daughter did not have to wander from city to city, homeless, like her.Her dream had finally come true.Plus, it was with the person she loved.Moreover, they had a child together.She could finally say to her father, “Dad, the three of us are living together as a family. Dad, you don’t have to worry about me being bullied anymore. I’m very happy now.”At the thought of everything she now had, Sabrina felt that all the trials she suffered through, all the pain she endured, it was all so, so, worth it.Didn’t they always say the rainbow comes after the storm?She thought that, from now on, no matter where life took them, no matter whether Sebastian could successfully acquire Star Island, Sabrina knew she would ride the
