Chapter 2

Author: Mohini
The air hostess didn't know how to react. However, since Conan was a platinum member, she could do nothing to protest.

The other passengers on the plane wouldn't have it, though. Someone threw a bottle at Conan and yelled, "Is this your own plane, you idiot? How could you be so ridiculous? People like you don't deserve to be a father!"

Conan dared not argue this time. He simply nodded toward the air hostess while stubbornly gripping the door handle.

I said calmly, "I won't need it anymore."

Fiona, a nice lady whose seat was next to mine, suddenly spoke up. "Come back here. I'll shield you while you feed your baby. Then I'll formally complain about that air hostess for discrimination!"

I smiled appreciatively and nodded at Fiona as I returned to my seat. She then shielded me with her coat while I fed Finley.

A while later, Finley finally stopped crying after he was done feeding. He then slept like a log until it was time to land.

I exited the departure hall. When Conan saw that I wasn't getting into his car, his face darkened, and he flew into another rage, thinking I was still playing mind games with him.

"Sabrina Lockhart, you can take the cab if you want to, but I refuse to let my son take it. Are you trying to use my son to garner my sympathy?"

I stared at Conan. He was simply being ridiculous.

"Finley is not your son."

Conan reacted as though he'd just heard the funniest joke in the world. He threw his head back and laughed loud and hard.

"Wow, I never thought that you'd stoop so low to talk such nonsense with me. Do you even hear yourself? You're talking rubbish!"

Conan wanted to continue his tirade, but Queenie suddenly shivered hard and sniffed loudly next to him.

He immediately approached her and asked concernedly, "Are you cold?"

Without saying another word, Conan took off his coat and draped it around Queenie's shoulders. Then, he personally escorted her into the front passenger seat.

When he looked back at me, I could tell that he was holding on to his last bit of patience. He frowned and said, "If you want to stand in the cold wind, fine! Just stay there until you freeze to death!"

Then, he turned away and sped off in his car.

A short while later, Gary Brosnan stopped his car beside me and got out to help me with my suitcases. Gary was the butler to Conan's father, Joseph Hamilton.

"Mrs. Hamilton, Mr. Hamilton Sr. has been wanting to meet his eldest grandson for a long time. Please, get into the car."

A year ago, Conan's brother, Dylan Hamilton, rescued me from the nunnery. That was when we decided to spend the rest of our lives together.

At first, Joseph had been entirely against our relationship, but Dylan used his advantage as the eldest son in the family to threaten his father, saying that he would kill himself if he couldn't marry me. Joseph ultimately relented.

Now that I had Finley, Joseph had no more reasons to oppose my relationship with Dylan.

The roads were brightly lit all the way back to the Hamilton residence.

Joseph carefully took Finley from me, his eyes full of love and adoration for the baby in his arms. Then, Joseph glanced behind me briefly.

"Where's Dylan? I thought that we could discuss the wedding together."

I explained, "Dylan's still busy with the overseas headquarters, but he told me to come home first to see you. Then, we'll also settle the issue with the branch company here at home."

Joseph lowered his head in deep thought.

I walked into the house with him and saw that everyone else from the Hamilton family was there. They were eager to discuss our wedding details, planning to make it as grand as possible.

Conan's background was slightly complicated. He had been born out of wedlock to a mistress, so the only thing Joseph could do for him was to provide him with wealth. However, Conan had no status or say in the family matters.

After we were done discussing, Conan's aunt, Anna Lysander, who was the head of a radio station, released the news of our wedding that very night.

Conan immediately called me up. With a trace of sarcasm, he sounded like he was interrogating me.

"Sabrina Lockhart, how dare you secretly discuss wedding plans with my father and the others! I haven't even agreed to marry you yet!"

I answered coldly, "Did you really think your opinion mattered?"

I hung up after that and ignored him. Then, I picked Finley up and entered Dylan's bedroom.

The next morning, I bumped into Conan as soon as I came out of the room.

He had an icy aura to him as his face became devoid of color. His eyes turned dark as he asked me, "How could you sleep in Dylan's bedroom?"

    Conan decided to drop the subject and not question me any further when I didn't answer him for a long time.He just sighed and said, "Since the wedding has been confirmed, we'll just go with what the elders have planned. Come with me to try on wedding gowns now."I looked at Conan incredulously before turning to walk away. However, he grabbed my wrist and tugged me back."Sabrina, you're the one who wanted this marriage. Yet you're also the one acting all cold and distant with me now. You're having quite a lot of fun torturing me, aren't you?"Are you still mad because of Queenie? I grew up with her, and she just got dumped by her ex. What's wrong with me being a little concerned about her?"I didn't want to continue arguing with him anymore. "I think you're mistaken. I'm not mad at all. Absolutely, positively, not," I said, stressing every word.As soon as I was done talking, the anger in Conan's eyes gradually dissipated.He wanted to hold my hand, but he dropped his hands bac

    Conan's eyes turned dark as he whipped his head up. Then, he glared at me with wide eyes."What do you mean by this? Tell me, Sabrina! What do you mean you're getting married to Dylan and not me?"I looked at myself in the dressing mirror one more time and answered calmly, "I never once said I was going to marry you ever since coming back. You were the one who got creative with your imagination and thought so highly about yourself."I took a deep breath and stood up to check on the wedding itinerary. Then, I turned to address Conan, who was looking more and more desolate by the second."You said you weren't going to attend this wedding, which is fine by me. Dylan and I never even invited you in the first place."If you have nothing good to say, I suggest you leave now."I lifted the hem of my dress to step forward, but Conan immediately dragged me back by my arm in a death grip. I could tell that a red mark would immediately form.He stared at me icily in complete disbelief. He

I could hardly breathe.At the sight of an overly emotional Conan, Dylan immediately shielded me behind him. He warned, "I advise that you get down from here right now before you force me to do something to you."However, Conan didn't seem to care about anyone else and ignored Dylan's words. He just continued glaring at me."Sabrina Lockhart, this is your final chance. Come away with me!"My good mood was instantly ruined. I frowned and glared back at him impatiently. "Go see a doctor if you're not right in the head. I'm in the middle of getting married to Dylan!"Conan reacted as though he'd just heard another funny joke. He laughed like a crazy maniac before putting the mic to his mouth again.At this point, Joseph couldn't stand it any longer. He exploded in anger and shuddered hard as he yelled, "Conan Hamilton!

    Conan looked like he was about to implode. He pushed his tongue against his cheek and scoffed loudly at Joseph's words."Sister-in-law?" he yelled. "Sabrina is my fiancée! She's not my sister-in-law! You're talking nonsense!"Dylan hadn't wanted to stoop to his level, but when he heard what Conan said, his eyes immediately turned cold and dark."Conan, Sabrina and I are in love. We are already married to each other. This is a fact. How dare you make such a huge fuss in front of everyone else! You're being impossible!"I don't care if you accept it or not, but from now on, when you see Sabrina, you'll treat her with the respect she deserves as your sister-in-law!"I couldn't tell whether Conan was about to laugh or cry. However, he exuded an immensely cold and icy aura as he glared at us.Dylan was worried about my safety and kept shielding me behind him. But I patted him on the shoulder and stepped out from behind him."Conan, you're my brother-in-law now. I don't know why you'r

    Dylan didn't care that Queenie was a woman. He pushed her roughly to the ground and said icily, "Conan asked for it. Otherwise, I would never have wanted to get into a fight on my wedding day!"A look of delight appeared in Queenie's eyes. She looked at Dylan excitedly and asked, "If Sabrina's already married to you, does that mean that Conan can marry me now?"Dylan just scoffed and chuckled coldly before telling Gary to shut the gates.Just then, I received a text message on my phone. It was from Perry Xanderson, one of the top management executives at the Hamilton Group branch company.Perry mentioned he saw the news about Conan losing control and trying to ruin Dylan's wedding and steal his bride.

    "I had been faithful to you and treated you so well all this time, yet you betrayed me!" Conan roared at me.I frowned. Not caring about what he just said, I replied, "You're overestimating me, Conan. After discussing it with the Board, your father and your brother came to this conclusion."You haven't been a good CEO. You couldn't take Hamilton Group to reach its full potential!"Conan looked absolutely desolate. He staggered backward and glared at me hatefully."Sabrina, I don't mind giving up the company if it means that you'll divorce Dylan and marry me now. I'll give you everything I have. Please?"I felt a pounding headache coming on. I stood next to Dylan and gave Conan a good once-over."Don't talk to me like that, especially since we're in public with so many onlookers. What happened to talking to me as your sister-in-law? You're just revealing yourself to be a rebellious bastard."Conan gritted his teeth in anger.

Then, he fiercely scrunched his eyebrows together and said, "I never thought that this always calm and collected brother of mine would fight me for a woman."If that's the case, I refuse to acknowledge you as my brother anymore."Dylan's eyebrows lifted very slightly. He subconsciously glanced my way and grinned slightly. "Do whatever makes you feel happy," he told Conan. "I just want to be with Sabrina.
