Sabrina raised her head to look at Sebastian, her face reddening.Finishing his toast, the man got up to leave, ignoring Sabrina.She was left speechless.It was Kingston, who had been standing by the side, who suddenly approached her and said in a low voice, “Miss Scott, you look much better when you’re embarrassed and confused.”With that, he followed his master, heading out of the diner.Sabrina gulped down her food before leaving as well. As she did not see Sebastian’s car outside the diner, she thought that Sebastian had left. She stood alone at the entrance of the diner, thinking quietly to herself.Not far away, Sebastian observed Sabrina from within the car.Standing alone like that, she looked like a leaf in the wind. Her expression seemed a little willful, but was more so unfamiliar.He also saw a loneliness and helplessness in the pitiful girl.“Go investigate whose child it is she has inside her,” he suddenly told Kingston.Kingston started, “Where… Where should I
She herself would live through anything. Allowing her baby to be born was her highest priority.The director actually did leave immediately after she had finished speaking.Sabrina sat quietly at her seat.“Sabrina!” A veteran of the design department, Amanda Cloud, yelled out fiercely.“Miss Cloud, if you have any tasks for me, please let me know and I’ll get it done.” Sabrina spoke matter-of-factly, giving Amanda a blank look.This shocked Amanda. “You…”Sabrina awaited Amanda's orders without saying anything else.A cold and cruel smile grew across Amanda’s face. “Go! Get the information we’ve compiled from the supplier. Bring every sample to the work site and let the engineers have a look at them. Since the director is out, we won’t be able to use the company cars. Carry them yourself, and take public transportation over!”Sabrina was speechless.Construction samples, bricks, buckets of silicon clay, and even diagrams. They were all bundled in a mess. Sabrina stared at t
Nigel’s strong arms supported her as he put her back on the ground. His sly smile remained on his face as he said, “Just because I had said that you wanted to seduce Shaw on the cruise and didn’t come to your rescue, you’ve started to hate me?”“I did not,” Sabrina said bluntly.She really didn’t.What relationship did she even have with Nigel?Why would she hate him? Sabrina was someone who analysed everything.“Country girl! Let me just say, you had money in your eyes that day. You were the one who allowed yourself to be toyed with by everyone. No one could’ve saved you. If I had, I’d have made myself the enemy of every rich kid in South City.”Nigel spoke directly in Sabrina’s face without a shred of compassion.“Other than my cousin Sebastian, no one could have saved you. Furthermore, it was only a game. As per your own agreement with Mindy, she would have given you that money in the end. You have no right to feel as if you’ve been wronged.”Sabrina maintained her composure
Sabrina did not answer, lowering her head as she continued to eat. The fiber strips in the sweet potatoes were not completely removed, so she removed them as she ate.“Do you like sweet potatoes that much?” Nigel asked.“Yeah, they’re sweet,” Sabrina replied.“It can’t really be that sweet, it’s not chocolate! Hand it over and let me try, if I find out that you’ve tricked me, I’ll deal with you right here!” Nigel snatched Sabrina’s plate away, taking it forcefully from her hands. He did not seem to care that they were out in the open, nor did he bother about the dust everywhere. Using the fork, he placed a piece of sweet potato into his mouth.Sabrina was stunned.She stared blankly at Nigel.Nigel gulped down one after another. After finishing, he paused before saying, “D*mn, I did not expect the food at this construction site to be so good. That sweet potato was so good... It’s sweet yet fragrant, soft and waxy.”His expression was clearly exaggerated and uncouth.Yet, Sa
The man did not reply before getting up and leaving.Grace smiled. “That brat has always been a man of few words, Sabbie. Since the two of you are in a flash marriage, your feelings for each other may not have a firm foundation yet, but I think you’ll slowly come to realize his good points.”“I know, mother. I’ll go with Sebastian to buy some clothes now,” Sabrina said, returning a sweet smile.“Go ahead.”Sabrina trailed outside. The moment she had walked out the door, she heard Grace shouting from behind, “Sebastian, I know you’re standing outside. Come in, I have something to say to you.”Sebastian had indeed been standing outside. Hearing his mother call for him, he ordered Kingston, “Bring her over to the car first. I’ll head on over after this.”“Yes, Young Master Sebastian.”Sebastian turned around, entering the ward.“Mother…”“Stupid child!” Grace reached over to hit her son as she rebuked him. “You’ve been married to Sabbie for over a month. I can tell that you’ve be
Sabrina was speechless.She glanced over at Sebastian, her expression still calm.Lincoln was still speaking on the other end. “You’d better get over here right this instant! If you don’t come over, I’ll make sure you regret it!”“Okay,” she said calmly.Kingston and Sebastian stared at her as she hung up.“That…” Sabrina twiddled her fingers. “In the afternoon I came over to visit Aunt Grace right after delivering some things to a construction site without heading back to the company. The supervisor wants me back there now... It wasn’t easy for me to find this job.”“We’ll get the clothes tomorrow,” Sebastian said.Sabrina sighed in relief. “Thank you, I’ll be off.”“Let Kingston send you.”“No… No need,” Sabrina said as she looked back, “my workplace is just nearby.”With that, she hurried away.After getting on the bus and leaving the hospital, Sabrina dialled back Lincoln. “I don’t owe you anything!”“You’ve stolen my daughter’s husband!” Lincoln barked viciously.Sabr
Sabrina did not know what to say.Sebastian liked to be alone, so Sabrina usually had her meals outside. This was also why Aunt Tianna rarely came over.She had not expected to find her waiting for her in the dining room.Aunt Tianna smiled as she brought out a small pot from the kitchen, walking as she said, “This chicken was brought over fresh from my village, and It’s been stewing for an entire afternoon. Try it, it’s heated and fresh off the cooker.”Sabrina smiled. “Okay, thank you Aunt Tianna.”She had not eaten home cooked food for a long time, and a stewed chicken would be very good for the child in her belly.She was also very hungry.Caught up in her quarrel with Lincoln, she had not noticed at all.The fulfilling dinner satisfied her well. She had initially been feeling dejected, but thanks to the food as well as the way Sebastian had treated her throughout the day, she slept soundly for the first time in quite a while.When she awoke the next day, Sabrina was hesit
Sebastian was different. She was cold, but he was a league above.It was as if she was nothing but thin air. The man had not even spared a glance at her.Sabrina had started tugging at the corner of her shirt unconsciously, lost in thought. Right at that moment, Sebastian abruptly turned before asking, “Mind if I take a smoke?”Sabrina crumpled up the corner of her shirt, caught off guard. Quickly nodding, she agreed, “Okay.”The man opened the window before taking out a cigarette and lighting it. Doing everything in one smooth motion, he took a leisurely puff as the cigarette reached his mouth. Sabrina realized that he was not exhaling the cigarette smoke.As she was watching, stunned, she noticed out of the corner of her eye that it wasn’t that he did not exhale, but rather than blowing out the smoke, he had gently let it escape from his nostrils, purposefully directing it out of the window.As for the man himself, he maintained a calm and composed, unmoving look.It was t
