Chapter 888
The woman was Autumn Poole. There was a reason why Autumn married into the Smith family and moved from Kidon City to South City. The Poole family was one of the wealthiest families in Kidon City. Of course Autumn wouldn’t fall for someone like Zach Smith, but when she was in her twenties, she had fallen in love with a foreigner. But she never expected he would turn out to be a spy. He had approached her because he wanted to gain some information about the Poole family. In the end, his cover was busted, but by that time, Autumn was already five or six months pregnant. Luckily, her family was wealthy and influential so they managed to successfully hide this piece of bad publicity from the public and had secretly gotten rid of the baby.It was an African child, with skin dark as coal from head to toe. The shape of its body had already been formed, and yet it had no right to be born into the world. Even though Axel Poole buried this incident, the upper-echelons of their circle still found

The even more unkempt one was Ruth Mann! She was nothing but a shrewd, uncultured, unkempt woman, with no family background to boast about! And yet she married the second son of the Poole family, Ryan Poole! How could she! And that Jane Sheen! Back then, she was nothing but a beggar! A woman who was sold like a piece of product! And yet she was fortunate enough to become Alex’s girlfriend! A homeless woman, someone who almost starved to death despite begging for food, was now living a better life than her, the eldest daughter of the Poole family!Autumn looked at the four of them laughing and chatting together merrily. The longer she looked, the more furious she got. All four of them were nothing but lowly b*tches. Sabrina was an ex-convict, for heaven’s sake! Wandering from city to city for years! Jane’s situation was no better than being in prison either. Even though the other two were slightly better, they were still just common folks. Birds of the same feathers flock together indee

Sabrina thought it might be from Nigel and as expected, it was Nigel. There was a hint of sorrow in his gentle voice. “Sabrina, it’s me, Nigel.”“I know it’s you!” Sabrina was still furious.“Are you angry at me, Sabrina?” Nigel asked.“Master Connor, actually I shouldn’t be saying this, because I’m the reason you went to Star Island, but do you know you’re not helping me at all?” The longer she talked, the more her fury grew.Seated beside her, Aino had her arms around her mother’s bag, looking after it. She raised her head to look at Sabrina. “Mommy, who are you arguing with? Did anyone bully you? If they did, tell me, I’ll go and beat her up for sure!”Even though they had returned to Sebastian’s side for more than six months, Aino still rushed to defend her mother at the sign of any threat. The little girl loved her mother deeply. At the sight of this, even Jane felt sorry for the child. She hugged Aino. “Sabbie, lower your volume. No matter what happens, take it slow, don’t get ma

Aino was so happy that her eyes sparkled. “Yes! Of course, I’m so happy!”“Then, we’ll wait for Uncle Zayn patiently. When his leg is better, he’ll come home, okay?” Sabrina comforted Aino patiently.Aino nodded obediently.Actually, Aino was not the only one who missed Zayn.Sabrina missed him too.They were family and were relying exclusively on each other for six years, so how could she not miss him?“My brother, he…did he say…that he missed me?” Sabrina asked, a lump in her throat.On his end, Nigel replied, “Your brother said…even though initially he was the one who guided you two as the both of you fled from South City, throughout the years that you spent in exile, most of the time you were the one taking care of him. He broke his leg when you just gave birth to Aino. Back then, you had to take care of both him and Aino at the same time. To buy him some nutritious food, you even sold your blood for money. Aino was a mere baby at that time, but still you went to work at a construc

Sabrina knew Nigel must be referring to Selene and her parents.On his end, as she expected, he said, “But don’t worry, Sabrina, I will find a way to destroy them! The three of them are now valued guests of the Payne family. They’re even staying in the west hall of the Payne manor. Originally, only the two Payne brothers have been staying in the manor, and now the Lynn family have joined them too.“Plus, the eldest of the Payne family, Harry Payne, plans to get Holden Payne to marry Selene.”Sabrina was speechless. “…”Nigel continued, “And, I heard Selene already told Harry that the reason why Sebastian is so anxious to take down the island is because you have been influencing him to do so. Now, however, Harry and the Lynn family are discussing using the opportunity of Sebastian being so focused on the island and sending some men to South City to deal with you. I called you today to tell you this, so you have to be careful in the future. Really watch out, okay?”Sabrina said, “I know,

“Sebastian…” Sabrina called out to him.“Yeah? How was your shopping day? Did you get a big haul? Should I send a car to pick you guys up?” On his end, Sebastian said gently. However, Sabrina’s tone remained solemn. “Sebastian, Nigel called me just now…”“What’s wrong?” The moment he heard her say Nigel called, a layer of frost enveloped his heart.“He said that the Lynn family are treated very well on Star island. The three of them are staying in the Payne manor, enjoying the same rights and powers as the Payne family. What does this prove? This proves Old Master Shaw and Axel Poole must have given the Paynes a lot of benefits… I heard they even sent some men…”Before Sabrina could finish, Sebastian cut her off from his end. “Did they send some men to infiltrate South City?”Sabrina nodded. “Yeah.”“Alright,” he answered.“Sebastian…” Sabrina called out to him suddenly.“Yeah?”“You have to be careful… You… Nothing can happen to you. Otherwise… What’s going to happen to Aino and I?”

Alex looked unexpectedly relaxed. “What? He took action all of a sudden?”Sebastian nodded. “Not too long ago, Alex Poole suddenly greatly increased the military personnel he’s sending to the island by a large scale. He seems to know something. By that momentum, it looks like he wants to destroy me on that island. He deployed a third of his soldiers onto the island. He’s pouring all his resources into this.”Alex laughed. “Sebastian, isn’t this the ending you were hoping to see? My uncle is providing Star Island with military personnel and equipment.”Sebastian raised his hand and patted Alex’s shoulder. “No wonder you’re my blood-brother!”After a slight pause, he said, “Alex, after my attack on Star Island, you and your uncle will really be locking horns now.”Alex laughed. “It’s just a matter of time before that happens. If you can successfully return from Star Island, then he’ll lose at least half of his men. By then, he might not even dare to directly fall out with me. I’m just

But she did not want to leave Ryan alone either.Ruth looked at the three beautiful ladies and the little girl in front of her awkwardly, at a loss for what to do.Right at that moment, Sebastian’s call came in. Sabrina answered immediately, “Sebastian?”“Can you come home now? And bring Jane along too. Alex is here with me.” Sebastian said.“Oh, sure. I’m on my way,” Sabrina answered.Ending the call, she looked at Ruth, acting as if she did not want Ruth to leave. “Ruth, you’re not married yet and you’re already so compliant to Ryan’s every demand. What will you do once the two of you get married.”“Come on, Sabrina.” Ruth’s face flushed red instantly.“Alright, alright, I’m just joking. Go on, Ryan is waiting for you.”“Okay!” Ruth blushed and headed outside to hail a taxi. “You little wench. Running off after getting all the benefits…” Behind her, Sabrina laughed.She had no choice but to take Aino and Jane home.The moment she entered the door, Jane could feel the thick homely at
