Sabrina was speechless.She did not know how to explain this to Sebastian. She realized that the situation had been set up as a trap by the Lynn family, and she had jumped right in.She had no arguments to make.Furthermore, even if she were to explain, Sebastian would not believe her.Sabrina was stunned silent, unable to say a word.“If anything happens to Selene or the Lynn family from today on, I won’t mind having another life on my hands. I will make sure you die a painful death.” Sebastian’s tone was metallic and unemotional as he spoke to Sabrina. He left after that, supporting Selene.Sabrina’s thoughts were in a complete mess.She knew that those words were not empty.She had seen for herself how he handled his enemies. He was someone who could be extremely gentle, but he could also be as cruel as hell.He would do what he said, and would never soften his heart.Sabrina looked over at Sebastian. He was holding up Selene as he walked toward Henry. Her head resting a
Starting to feel a sense of inferiority, Selene withdrew into Sebastian’s embrace. Sebastian spoke up. “Grandpa, Selene is already pregnant. You can stop that. If you continue shouting, you’ll scare your great grandchild in Selene’s belly.”Henry was speechless.“I got her to meet you here so you can know and be prepared. The woman I want to marry in this life is her, Selene Lynn!“After my mother passes away, I will bring her to the Ford Residence to formally meet you. From now on, we won’t have to discuss marital matters anymore.” Sebastian’s words left no room for debate.It was just a statement.A simple one.Without waiting for Old Master Ford’s reply, Sebastian carried Selene and left.Selene asked nervously, “Young Master Sebastian, I… was I very rude?”“No.” Sebastian replied simply.“Young Master…”“Call me Sebastian.” “Young… Sebastian… I-I don’t dare to.”“I am your man!”As she hid in his embrace, Selene’s heart grew elated. She took a sweet and charming ton
Sabrina looked uncertain and speechless.The vibrant, innocent smile that was full of life that she had been wearing for the past few days was lost. She had once again reverted to her cold, alienated expression.That look, in Nigel’s eyes, was extremely pitiful.Yet he enjoyed seeing this pitiful and determined look. It was more fun this way.“I was wondering why you’ve been so happy, looking like a flower in bloom. It seems that my cousin was treating you well. However, you got cocky too early. Daring to face his actual woman simply because he treated you well for two days?“You really have some fat guts!“I really couldn’t tell. You’ve always had that cold and bitter look, as if you didn’t care about anything, but I guess when you do something, you do it big?“You had my cousin before you, and Marcus Shaw behind.“Then you have me.“Any one among the three of us would have been enough to cause ripples in South City.“Your eyes really are sharp!”Sabrina was speechless.Ni
Old Madam Ford consoled Grace as well. “Daughter-in-law, Sean is overseas right now. Once he finishes up his business, he will come back and marry you. After marriage, you will really be a part of our family. You… Could you call me mother?”Grace looked at Old Madam Ford, covered in tears. “Mom…”“Ah, you are a good daughter-in-law. Take good care of yourself. You will get better... You will definitely get better.” The old lady pulled Grace into her embrace.Listening from outside, Sabrina peeked in, feeling melancholic as she watched the scene.Aunt Grace’s life had been tough. She had been tricked when she was young, ending up with Sean Ford. As they had been overseas, she never knew that Sean Ford already had a wife and three kids. By the time she found out, Grace was already nine months pregnant, and would give birth in half a month.After she gave birth, Sean treated the two of them very well.Yet the good times only lasted until the child was five. That was when Sean’s orig
The man laughed coldly. “Did you know I’d be waiting?”Sabrina was speechless.She had not had any such thoughts.She had just been nervous, not knowing how he would deal with her. There was no point running away. She had seen firsthand a few days ago how this man dealt with his enemies. No matter where she fled to, she knew that after a while, Sebastian would find her.Unless she had a meticulous plan.If she could not run, she might as well face him.At the very least, Aunt Grace still needed her.She had simply wanted to steady herself before talking.That was what Sabrina had been thinking.Seeing her speechless, Sebastian looked on at her, his eyes containing a malicious glint. “You pretended to be honest, then pretended to be pitiful, all to earn my trust before you dealt with Selene? Your acting skills are really top notch, even Selene can’t compete with you. Her envy toward you is all surface level, just the whims of a little girl. Yet you, on the other hand, have such
“That is all.“If you think that my newfound arrogance from how you’ve treated me over the past two days was what caused me to push Selene today, then I won’t make that mistake again.”After she had spoken, Sabrina pushed Sebastian aside before entering her room. She started packing her belongings without delay.She had very little luggage, her possessions essentially only comprising the shoes that she already had on. She packed up her few clothes as well as some simple showering products. They were all stuffed into a ripped up bag.With her bag slung around her shoulder, Sabrina did not spare Sebastian a glance, nor did she utter any farewells before disappearing into the night.Sebastian was left standing at the window, looking down at the disappearing silhouette downstairs.She had left decisively, without hesitation.He suddenly noticed that the two of them were quite similar.They were both capable of being very gentle, yet when it came time to sever all relationships, the
“Haven’t you gotten what you wanted? Why are you here?” Sabrina was exasperated.“Sabrina, I thought you were so much better than this. You were telling me how much Young Master Sebastian loved and cared for you, and that you could snatch away my place as his fiance, but it turns out that you’re actually just a laborer here? If I’m not mistaken, you were also working here twenty odd days ago?”Twenty odd days ago. That was when she had been kidnapped by Selene.Sabrina looked calmly at the arrogant woman in front of her, suppressing her desire to grab her neck and choke her to death.She really despised the Lynn family.She had never understood why her mother had left her with the Lynn family when she was twelve. What relationship had her parents have with them? Sabrina knew that her family had been poor, but even if she was so poor she had to beg, Sabrina still wouldn’t have turned to rely on anyone else.Throughout the entire eight years, she had never gotten even a bit of love
She only had herself to rely on.Sabrina had already thought it through last night. To protect herself and the child in her belly, anyone who would approach her, intent on harming her, would be met with death by that brick.It had definitely been useful, seeing as she had successfully scared Selene away.Sabrina threw the brick aside.It would no longer be effective now that she had revealed it. Anyway, she still had other things in her bag to protect herself with. Watching as Selene ran off in the distance, Sabrina headed in to work at the site.Following an entire day of laboring, Sabrina found that she was not that tired. Instead, she found working here much more relaxing than the office, where she always had to be on edge, worrying about being discharged.Working at the construction site was dirtier and more labor intensive, but at least it didn’t exhaust her heart.Furthermore, there was a wide variety of food in the canteen, so she could stuff herself with good food.Af
