In the past, all she knew was that her husband was a cold-blooded killer and took the lives of others with a snap of fingers and a smile on his face. However, she never knew there was a side of him that loved and appreciated life so much.He conquered the entire Star Island without mobilizing a single soldier or firing a single bullet. It looked easy. However, in reality, this resulted from his dedicated planning and arrangements for the past six years. Sebastian soon started the repair and restoration work on the Payne Manor and the old residence of the Summer family. He ordered the Payne Manor to be restored to its glory, like how it used to look when controlled by the Summer family. Portraits of the Summer family ancestors were hung up in the manor as a sign of respect and homage to them.All these arrangements did not take much time. After the necessary decisions were made, the restoration works were completed within a week.Sebastian placed the Lynn family and the Payne fam
Jade was silent.Sabrina smiled coldly as she looked at Jade, “Mrs. Lynn, do you not remember this man at all?”Jade said, “You…he…”“Who is he?” Sabrina asked as the smile hung on her lips.Seeing Sabrina’s expression and hearing the man’s pet name for Jade, Lincoln immediately looked at his wife suspiciously, “Who is he?!”“He…”“Jadie, you have always loved me. I did everything you asked me to do. I had a good life in South City, with a stable job, but you asked me to come to Star Island with you, so I did. Can you save me, please…?” At this moment, the stick-thin man knew death was fast approaching him. He could not hide the truth any longer.Jade kicked the man away from her harshly, “You damn fool! Were you in cahoots with Sabrina?! That’s right, I admit, I was the one who asked you to assassinate Sabrina! However, doing so was Lord Payne’s idea, and back then, the entire Star Island was gearing up to fight Sebastian and Sabrina. We were only trying to take the first victo
As easy as fastening a button.Selene and her parents were all scared silly. In the near distance, Harry Payne and his wife were equally terrified. Surprisingly, Minerva was the more courageous one out of them. She kept her wits with her and even looked at Sebastian with slight admiration. She muttered softly under her breath, “When my Uncle Holden controlled the island, he was so vicious and decisive too.”Minerva glanced at Aino and said softly, “Hey my little follower, your dad is very similar to Uncle Holden.”“Uncle Holden?” Aino asked.Although Aino was a proud and almost arrogant little girl, she willingly answered an ugly girl like Minerva who called her as her little follower. Aino thought it was an honor to be the follower of a girl who was more than ten years older than her.“My Uncle Holden!” Minerva rolled her eyes at Aino, “He loved you like you were his own daughter! He found me disgusting, but the moment he saw you, he coddled you like you were his little treasur
“What?” Minerva thought she misheard him.Beside him, Sabrina added, “He’s asking what do you want to major in college so that we can enroll you in a suitable school.”Sabrina knew her husband best. He was a slave to his daughter’s wants and needs. Sebastian could tell his daughter liked this older, flat-nosed girl. She was wild and rebellious, but as a whole, she had a righteous soul. She would grow up to be a valuable talent if she could receive a better education.Most importantly, she would have a friend, and Sebastian considered this too. By bringing Minerva to South City, he was effectively holding her hostage. By then, if Harry Payne and his wife wanted to overthrow him and come up with another devious plan, they could no longer do so.Minerva cried tears of gratitude, “I…I…Master…Master Sebastian, you…Are you really willing to support my studies in South City? South City is full of good colleges, with as many universities as some of the most advanced cities in the world.
Some were in charge of defense and management, and some were from civil organizations. Sabrina smiled and said to Sebastian, “Sebastian, look. The Summer family has disappeared from Star Island for more than 50 years, yet people still remember them. They love and respect you too. You must be so happy.”The man smiled faintly. What was happiness? Neither his career nor his ambitions could bring him happiness. The only things that could bring him happiness were his wife and his daughter. In front of all of the high-ranking officials on the island, the domineering and ruthless, cold-blooded man suddenly pulled his wife into his arms and planted a soft kiss on her forehead, saying gently, “Come on, it’s time to board the plane.”Sabrina was speechless.Did he have to do that?That man!He was becoming an expert at flaunting their loving relationship in public. The trip to Star Island was worth it. It seemed Holden, who escaped, had taught her husband many valuable lessons. He wo
Minerva was silent.This was the first time in her life that someone had called her beautiful. The dark spot in her heart that always existed suddenly shrunk considerably.Her smile turned much sweeter than before, “Thank you for the compliment. You’re quite good-looking yourself. You must have looked dashing when you saved people.”As she spoke, Minerva suddenly blushed, “It’s just that…you’re much too old for me. From the looks of it, you’re more than ten years older than me. I can address you as uncle. Otherwise, I would’ve pursued you.”Nigel did not say anything.Since he grew close with Sebastian, he was much brighter and more optimistic than before. He wanted to start a new life, returned to South City, and helped his parents manage the Conor Group. If he was lucky, he might meet a nice girl with a good personality like Sabrina, get married, and start a family.Nigel had marriage plans, but he never thought of getting himself a teenage wife who was more than ten years youn
Sabrina smiled slightly in Nigel’s direction, then turned to face away from him.She did not have an ounce of love for him. Only friendship. The familial love she had for Zayn was much stronger than the friendship she shared with Nigel. However, there was an added sense of gratitude. Besides this, there was nothing else.At this moment, Sabrina focused her complete attention on her husband. He captured Selene and both her parents' home. The irony was that they came full circle and were right where they started, with her enemies alive and well. Moreover, they were about to step onto this piece of land again, safe and sound. All of this was thanks to Selene’s all-mighty and omnipotent grandfather. The elderly man tried his best to kill her six years ago.Sabrina let out a cold laugh at the thought of Old Master Shaw. She felt disgusted as if she was about to vomit. However, she had no choice but to face him. She wondered what the invaluable secret he held was. She was desperate to kno
“What?!” Sebastian was harshly taken aback.Sabrina was equally shocked too.Sabrina and Sebastian made various predictions about the invaluable secret that Old Master Shaw held on the journey to the clubhouse. However, they could not have guessed that Sebastian had a younger brother who shared the same father and mother as he did. A younger brother.Such a calm and collected man as Sebastian could not even help it and stared in wide-eyed shock at Old Master Shaw. He had a younger brother? He was also born to his parents. Did that mean his brother carried the Ford family name too? He did not know what he was feeling for a split second, whether it was excitement or something else. He found it hard to sit still. Sabrina reached out and held his hand, and he then managed to calm himself. At this moment, he had a strong feeling. He could almost guess… With a shift of his eyes, he noticed Sabrina was looking at him too. She obviously seemed to harbor the same assumption as
