On the other hand, Sabrina had been so understanding and embraced everything about him. She never asked for anything in return and every single thing she did was out of consideration for him. At that moment, Sebastian was at a loss of his words. He could only hold her close fiercely with his arms tightly around her. He was so afraid of losing her.For over thirty years, he had always been alone. Always. The Fords despised him, and he was exiled to foreign land, left to make ends meet with his mother. He was not born this way, but the environment he grew up in made him the vicious man that he had become, until he met Sabrina. He could still remember the electronic filter she gave him one night, the creamy lemon pasta she made for him before, and the smile as bright as the sun that blossomed on her face at the smallest gesture of kindness she was shown. All those were proof as to how lonely Sabrina had been, and how much she longed for real love. He was lonely too. He also shared her lo
The next day. It was sunny and bright outside when Sabrina woke up. She felt as though her entire body had been disassembled and barely glued back together, but somehow, she felt energized and refreshed. A shy smile appeared on her face. The two of them had been a couple for some time now, so they had been busy when they were on Star Island and had not been intimate for half a month, but when they finally returned home with some time alone, it felt as though it was their honeymoon all over again. He had some tricks up his sleeves and so did she. After some sleep, she found herself in a much better mood, perhaps due to the beautiful weather as well. Though she still could not find her mother, Sabrina was ninety per cent certain that her mother was still alive. As long as she was alive, there was always hope. It was at least better than her thinking that her mother was dead like she had been the past six years. Living was the biggest hope there was. She sat up from the bed and turned
"Sebastian..." Never had she thought that Sebastian would be the first to bow before her."Once Nigel recovers from his injury, have him over to the Ford Group and co-sign a contract with me. That land by the edge of South City will be developed by the Ford Group alongside the Conor Group," said Sebastian.Nigel, his aunt, and his uncle-in-law froze."Sebastian..." Nigel looked at him, red-eyed.Sebastian glanced over at him mockingly. "You helpless brat!""You're right, Sebastian," Nigel said as he laughed in response."Hurry up and recover. Aino keeps badgering us, saying that she doesn't have an uncle for her to let her ride on. That ought to be you from now on!""That little thing chose the right person to be her horse, then," Nigel said as his laugh grew even more cheerful.Next to him, Minerva was smiling as well. "That naughty little thing Aino loves horse-riding."Sebastian's attention was instantly drawn to Minerva at her words. He glanced over at her before saying to
"Yes, my dear..." Mrs. Conor replied with excitement.On the other end, Sabrina felt slightly better. She hung up after a simple conversation with Sebastian’s aunt before heading back to the bedroom to wash up. She woke Aino up for breakfast and, just when she was about to head out to drop Aino off to the kindergarten and then head to work, her phone rang. She took it out and grinned. It was from Yvonne and she immediately picked it up, "My beautiful Yvonne, why didn't you come pick us up at the airport yesterday?""So now you are bringing this up? Ruth and I were going to pick you up at the airport. You were the one who said that the old Master Shaw needed to talk to you guys about something important. So? Did you talk to him?" Yvonne asked.Sabrina nodded. "Yeah, we did.""Sabrina, that old thing didn't give you a hard time, did he?" Yvonne asked, worried."Yvonne, you are going to be marrying into the Shaw family, so you shouldn't hate on the old Master Shaw simply because I do
"..." Sabrina did not respond. Ruth really was good at pranking her friends.Over on the other end of the line, Yvonne was still very excited. "Sabrina, how did you manage to give birth to such a kind-hearted little thing? She is just six-year-old and she already knows how to buy gifts for everyone. I can't wait to see my present. I'm sure I will be one hundred percent satisfied with it.""...""Hurry down!" Yvonne urged, "I wanted to call last night and ask about my present, but I felt like that's not right considering that you guys have just traveled back and were probably exhausted… Hehehe… I refrained myself for the entire night from disturbing you. Now hurry up and come down already. I was hoping that I hitch a ride with you to work!""Okay!" Sabrina agreed and hung up. She turned around to look at Aino. "Aino, do you have your gift for Aunt Yvonne?"Aino nodded in excitement. "Of course, Mommy."She showed her mother a black bag she was holding and Sabrina could not help bu
Yvonne was so frightened that her hands were shaking.She ran in all different directions, but there was no place to run, so she had no choice but to hide behind the car. Aino looked at Yvonne innocently. “Aunt Yvonne, you… I thought you would like it?”Yvonne said, “Aino! I have never had any grudges with you in the past, and I have done you no wrong recently, so what are you doing? If I’ve done anything wrong, can’t you just tell me and I will change?”Aino was speechless. She lost her self-esteem.Why was everyone afraid of her gifts?Were they very scary?Sabrina shrugged her shoulders and looked at Aino. “Little child, the reason they did not beat you up together was out of respect for your mother, yours truly. Also, you are too young. They do not want to bully the weak and young, do you understand? Little brat!”Aino did not want to submit to a defeat. She looked at Yvonne with an innocent face. Aino was so frightened that her tears almost flowed down. “Sabrina, wh
“I like going to the amusement park the most!” the little child, Aino, said immediately.“That’s a place I have stopped going to for a long time now,” Yvonne sighed and said with disdain.Aino looked at Yvonne with admiration. “Aunt Yvonne, then what do you do for fun?”Yvonne gave it a thought. “Well… costume parties. I like costume parties the most.”Aino asked, “What’s a costume party?”Yvonne laughed and said, “It’s just using all sorts of make-up to disguise one’s original look, and everyone at the party will be dressed as various characters.”She then proudly showed off and said, “I like to act as a witch. A witch can scare a lot of people. Hehe. However, those are all rich people’s games. I want to play, but I don’t have the money to buy so many props…”At that time, Yvonne only said it casually. However, Aino unexpectedly remembered it.Also, Aino even put so much thought into it and picked out a gift for Yvonne.At this moment, Yvonne felt touched while looking at A
‘To make a trip to the hospital?’Sabrina was shocked when she heard it, then she felt happy in her heart.‘Could it be that Old Master Shaw was sick?’This is a good thing. If Old Master Shaw were to die now, Sabrina would not shed a single tear.Sabrina looked at Sebastian, and Sebastian then asked with a calm expression, “Grandpa Shaw, what happened? Are you not well? I’ll come over right now.” On the other end, Old Master Shaw did not answer, but mumbled, “Just make a trip here now.”“Okay!”After hanging up the phone, Old Master Shaw glanced at the interior of the ward.Selene had been staying for one whole day.Yesterday, after Old Master Shaw finished talking with Sebastian in the clubhouse about the secrets of Ford family and Star Island, he then went to the hospital to visit Lincoln. When he arrived at the hospital, Lincoln’s hand had already been bandaged.The only thing was that it was impossible for his severed finger to be reattached. If that finger was not re
