When Jane smiled, her eyebrows curled beautifully into little crescents. She was extremely beautiful too, the kind of beauty that was reminiscent of a precious flower that was delicately watered and trimmed every day. Her figure and physical appearance were carefully curated, her dressing sense too did not lose out to Sabrina at all. With a mere glance, Sabrina could tell she was the kind of woman who was well-protected by her man and yet didn’t act out based on that love and protection. She was obedient and well-mannered, but she was not delicate or squeamish. Instead, she was gentle and carried herself with ease and confidence. But Sabrina was different, she had edges. Even when she was quiet, she emitted a cold and hard vibe. And now, much of her coldness had evaporated, and in its place was an independence carved by her career success. Jane admired her for that. She was uncontrollably attracted to her. It might be because Ryan had been extremely nice to Sabrina right from the sta
Sebastian focused all his attention on her, but didn’t hear her say a single word. Raising his head, he saw that Sabrina’s face was flushed as red as a ripe tomato.“Refuse to talk?” he huffed. “If you don’t tell me, we’ll see how I punish you tonight.”Sabrina’s laugh was both sweet and cheeky. “You can punish me, I don’t mind. I enjoy your punishment. I like you punishing me.”Sebastian huffed again. “That’s because I never punished you seriously. If I did, you wouldn’t be able to leave the bed for a week. By then, the job that those ladies admire you so much for, do you think you can still…?”“Don’t!” Sabrina lifted her hand and covered the man’s lips. “I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you, okay?”Sebastian looked at her expectantly. “Alright, tell me.”“Jane asked me, how did I…control you. Whether I have any techniques, physically, to make you so compliant.” Sabrina’s face was once again as red as the burning sun. Sebastian was speechless. She controlled him! She controlled him? But seein
Nigel had been quite close with Marcus recently, and surprisingly, Marcus was the one who approached Nigel. Maybe it was because he noticed Nigel had been improving himself recently, becoming more and more responsible, so Marcus wanted to cooperate with him on more projects. Nevertheless, he didn’t bring Nigel to the office today to discuss work. Nigel was the one who had asked Marcus to bring him here just to see Sabrina. Nigel grabbed Sabrina’s arm, asking her anxiously, “Sabrina! Did you know that the Lynns have escaped to Star Island?”Sabrina raised her eyebrows. “And?”Nigel was still anxious. “You knew about it?”Sabrina merely glanced at Marcus silently. Marcus immediately lowered his head. “Yes…my grandfather did help the three of them escape there. Sabrina, all I can do is apologize. I…I couldn’t stop my grandfather. Not only that, he tried to hide it from me. If I had known, I would have definitely stopped him, I’m sorry.”Sabrina shook her head. “It’s all right, this has n
Sabrina turned and saw Old Master Shaw.“Grandpa!” Marcus looked at this grandfather, slightly mad. “You’re too much!”Old Master Shaw studied his grandson with sharp eyes. “Marcus! Are you angry at me for coming to my own grandson’s company? You haven’t been home in a week, not even when your parents call you and ask you to come home, and now I can’t come to your company to visit my grandson?”Ever since Marcus found out Old Master Shaw orchestrated the Lynn family’s escape to Star Island, he was so angry he didn’t go home. Instead, he chose to stay in a hotel where none of his family could find him.“You can!” Marcus said patiently. “But why are you biased against Sabrina?”The old man barked out coldly, “Am I biased against her? This is fact! Look at her, does she look at all like the lady of a rich and famous family? Fooling around with two men in public and corrupting public morals, you think you’re doing so well, don’t you? You are such an embarrassment!”Sabrina looked at the ol
All these years, Marcus held on to his wishful thinking that Sabrina was the Shaw family’s granddaughter, and yet Old Master Shaw kept hurting her. It wasn’t just Sabrina, anyone else in her position would be equally irate and incensed. And what’s more, Sabrina wasn’t a greedy woman. Marcus apologized to her sincerely. “I’m sorry…”Sabrina didn’t take it to heart. “It’s alright, I know you meant well. Enough about me, how are you and Yvonne?”At the mention of Yvonne, a smile appeared on his face. “She’s very interesting, cute and lively.”“Then be nice to her. Her cousin is Sebastian’s top bodyguard cum driver. If you harm her in any way, her cousin will cut you into teeny tiny little pieces of meat!”Marcus laughed. “I know, I would never dare go against her wishes, I will treat Yvonne like a princess.”Sabrina laughed. “That’s more like it!”After a pause, she looked at Nigel again. “Master Nigel, you should go home. Thank you for your concern, but my husband can solve this proble
Hearing her daughter’s scream, Sabrina started and turned to look back at Aino, “Where, baby?”“Outside the window.” Aino pointed outside the window.Sabrina looked in the direction of Aino’s finger. “Where? I don’t see anything.”“Mommy, your eyesight is poor. You need to look past the road, behind that tree. See, there are two little black eyes there.” Aino’s gaze was still fixed far in the distance. She wasn’t afraid of the pair of eyes at all, because Aino could feel the warmth of its gaze. Upon closer look, Sabrina did indeed see the pair of eyes.Sabrina was so shocked, she froze for a split second. All she saw was a pair of dark eyes behind a tree, the eyes were looking at them through a gap in the branches.Sabrina stared back at the eyes for a while, then immediately got out of the car and led Aino running toward the road. “Aino, quick, follow me.”However, by the time they reached the opposite end of the road, she didn’t see anything. The pair of eyes had long since disappear
She told herself that she still had Sebastian and she still had Aino. They were a happy family of three. She craved more from Sebastian, to calm her anxious wounds. The moment her words left her mouth, the people on the other side immediately felt like laughing, but didn’t dare to, they didn’t even dare cover their mouths!Luckily, Sabrina knew when to stop. “I won’t get in the way of your work. Come back soon, I can’t fall asleep without you. I’m hanging up soon, bye dear.”Her continuous sweet tone and words made him feel refreshed. In the past, he hated sweet things. Even his coffee was the most bitter, most concentrated coffee available on the market worldwide. And now, he didn’t realize when it had started but he drank his coffee with a cube of sugar. He found that the fragrant coffee tasted particularly delicious when it was laced with a hint of sweetness.That night, Sebastian returned home late. Tip-toeing into his house, he thought Sabrina would’ve fallen asleep, but noticed t
Instantly, Sebastian straightened up. “What action?”On the other end, his subordinate reported immediately. “The leader of Star Island, Simon Payne, is giving a speech in public. He is talking about resisting an attack from South City!”Sebastian laughed coldly. “Ha! Why would I attack him? He overestimates himself.”“Master Sebastian, what should we do now?” his subordinate asked. Sebastian laughed coldly. “He wants to resist an attack from South City, right? Hire more soldiers for him, let him realize how strong he is.”“Understood, Sir.” On the other end, his subordinate said respectfully, “I’m sorry for interrupting your rest, Sir. Goodnight.”“Alright.” Ending the call, Sebastian saw that Sabrina was already sitting upright. She was looking at him worriedly. “You stayed late in the office today not to make up for the delay, but because you were preparing for the attack on Star Island?”Sebastian nodded. “Yes.”Sabrina bit her lips. “Will it be dangerous?”“No,” he answ
