Looking at Sebastian’s cold expression, Selene quickly faked her expression.“Young master, I only ignored your warning to come here because I’m worried. I know your mother’s funeral is a big deal, and I’m not here to cause any trouble, but Kenton…” Selene stopped mid-sentence.Hearing Selene mention Kenton, Sebastian’s gaze turned extremely sharp.It was Kenton again!Before his mother passed away, Sebastian had seen Kenton and Sabrina being physical with each other outside of the hospital, and now Kenton was mentioned again.“Speak.” Sebastian’s voice was undeniably cold.“Can I mention Sabrina?” Selene asked.“Yes.” Selene was elated. Her parents were right, now that Sebastian’s mother had passed away, Sebastian no longer needed Sabrina. So, now was the best time to destroy Sabrina in Sebastian’s eyes.‘Sabrina, your time has come!’Joy.“You never allowed me to say anything in the past, and I did not dare to say it either. Sabrina was very wild when she was in college.
Even if they had been physically intimate.Still, Sebastian could not ignore the child in Selene’s belly. He would not let his child have a childhood and youth like his. For the child in Selene’s belly, he had to marry Selene.Selene was shocked by Sebastian reprimanding her. She stuttered, “Then I- I will leave now.”“Go back and rest! Don’t come if I never asked you to! I will see you once I’m done with things here! As a mother, your first responsibility is to care for the child in your stomach!”“I…I understand.” Selene smiled wryly before she turned around to leave.Next to him, Kingston immediately went to Sebastian. “Young Master, Miss Lynn’s words…are they true?”Kingston was not sure if Selene’s words could be trusted. However, he restrained from saying so.Sebastian did not answer Kingston’s question, he was thinking about something else. The child in Selene’s belly was Kenton’s?Kingston saw Sebastian was not saying anything, so he asked, “Young Master, it’s better
In the rain, Sabrina was kneeling in front of Grace’s grave with a black umbrella over her head. In front of Grace’s grave was a bunch of yellow and white flowers. Tears flowed from Sabrina’s eyes as she told Grace, “I’m sorry Aunt Grace that I could not send you off during your funeral. I know you were constantly moving around in life, and that you were always suffering. However, now things are better for you. You get to be buried with your parents and sister. You don’t have to be lonely anymore on the other side.”“Aunt Grace, I envy you. After my mother died, you were my last family, but now you gone as well.”Selene sobbed.The sound of Selene’s crying was soft, and even Sebastian and Kingston did not hear it as they got closer. It was Sabrina who heard their footsteps first. She saw the cold and serious Sebastian, as well as Kingston, who had an unknown look on his face.Kingston opened his mouth, looking like he wanted to say something to Sabrina, but he said nothing in the e
Her words had such a feeling of finality that he had nothing to say. “If you don’t want me in your life for now, then I will take my leave. If you want to kill me, you can just come look for me.” Sabrina then looked away and left.She did not look back.“Hey…” Kingston could not stop himself from shouting.Sabrina continued walking forward. She had an umbrella and she was not walking that slowly. But Sebastian’s feet were longer, and his paces were much faster. He quickly blocked Sabrina.“Do you want my life now?” Sabrina asked.Sebastian said without emotions. “Any contract that I’ve signed before cannot be ignored. Any payment I need to make will not have one penny less! Also, your life is worth nothing to me! It’s too troublesome for me to take your life!”Sabrina felt very relieved. He was still willing to give her money, and willing to spare her life. She was practically thanking the heavens.Looking up, there was actually a sweet smile on her face. “There’s really no ne
“What did you say?” Nigel froze. He quickly recovered and looked at Sabrina playfully.Sabrina’s expression was calm and determined. Since she had decided to treat that man well, Sabrina wanted to be honest with him.“You should know that I’ve been in jail for two years. It’s very chaotic over there, and I don’t even know whose child it is. However, Young Master Nigel, my mother is dead. Aunt Grace, who was the closest to me, has already been buried as well. I have no one else in this world. I want to keep my child.”“I know I’m not worthy of you. I’ve never hoped you would marry me. You can tell me no at any time. I don’t want any of your wealth. I will be getting my salary for the month soon. When I get it, I will return the three thousand you lent me. I only want to treat you sincerely, so I won’t be surprised if you can’t accept me. I will still sincerely wish you well. If you have any use for me in the future, I will do anything for you. I can even give you my life, Young Maste
‘You don’t even know who the father of the child in your belly is.‘And Sebastian, he should be getting engaged soon and then it won’t be long until he’s married to Selene. ‘Sabrina, you can’t long for him!’That afternoon, Sabrina sat at the cafe alone, staring into empty space, afflicted.The image of Sebastian would not leave her mind.However, what Sabrina did not realize was that , in the booth next to hers, concealed by a large pillar, sat Sebastian with a solemn look on his face.He had seen the smiles she shot Nigel clearly. As if by reflex, Sebastian clenched his fists and then relaxed them repeatedly. At the mere thought of it, he clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles started to turn white.They had planned on officially separating the day after. Yet, even with the divorce looming, Sebastian was preoccupied with observing Nigel and Sabrina as they talked away.For the rest of the afternoon, the two simply sat there, unmoving.It was only when evening c
Selene looked at Sabrina arrogantly. “Tomorrow! I! Will be engaged to Sebastian! Look at yourself! You are just a phoney who shamelessly stole my husband for two months! Were you humiliated in public by Kenton? Good, you deserve that! I just hate that you actually injured that old fart, and even had Nigel to protect you!”“Sabrina, you can’t harm my husband anymore, so did you decide to cause Young Master Nigel trouble instead?”Even when faced with such provocation, Sabrina forced herself to calm down and smiled at Selene. “Congratulations on your engagement tomorrow, as the adopted daughter of the Lynn family, I will definitely be there tomorrow to show my support.”“How dare you!”“If you don’t leave right now, I swear that I’ll do it! I’ve already been forced into a corner by all of you. There’s nothing I wouldn’t dare do!” Sabrina glared at Selene intensely. “Tomorrow, at your engagement banquet, I’ll publically announce that the child in my belly is also Sebastian’s. Then you
Those who attended were all members of the upper echelons of South City.Among them were figures such as those from the Ford family, like Sebastian’s aunt as well as Nigel. However, Sebastian’s father and stepmother did not attend the ceremony as they were still overseas. Besides them, the Shaw and Smith families were present as well.As they were all families with a lot of prior history, Sebastian was forced to invite them at Old Master Ford’s vehement requests.If it had been up to him, Sebastian would not have invited anyone.In fact, he wouldn’t even have held a banquet, because his marriage with Selene was something personal between the two of them.Sebastian clearly knew that he was only marrying Selene because she had saved him once, as well as for the child in Selene’s belly.He did not love her at all.He would even feel intensely frustrated whenever he looked at the woman.However, to Selene, it was the greatest honor she had known.After the engagement, the entire u
In a blink of an eye, Aino was already 18.She was already going to college.Her husband, Mister Ford, already had gray hairs on his sideburns and was already a man who was pushing 50.Both Sebastian and her had gone through thick and thin together for almost twenty years.That was so fast."Old man," Sabrina called out.Sebastian turned her head to the side and looked at Sabrina. "What did you just call me?"Sabrina smiled. "Isn't that right? You're going to be fifty next year, and I'm only in my early forties. I'm not an old lady, but you are a proper old man! Let me ask you something. Your sideburns have turned gray, are you going to dye your hair on our wedding day?""I'm not going to! I simply want others to say that an old man like me is marrying a young wife! Listen to me. You'd better stop dressing up and putting on makeup in the future!" Sebastian said to his wife, who looked ten years younger than him.How unreasonable!This old lady simply has not aged a day since
Yvonne hugged her children and lifted her head to look at her mother. At that moment, she was incredibly excited. She was both excited and aggrieved, which made her cry inconsolably. She rushed into her mother's arms. Immediately after, her father also hugged both her and her mother. The family of three was finally reunited. No, it should be a family of five at that moment. It would be a family of six with Marcus included. The family of six hugged each other and cried so much that the people at the side could not help but cry as well. Even the nurse also teared up.It was after a long while that Yvonne's parents let go of her."Alright, my child, let's go home. Let's go home."Helena raised her head and looked at Yvonne. Her child did not have her original face anymore, but she was truly her child. After her child went missing for five years, she finally got her child back. During that time, Yvonne got a rare condition that was hard to cure in any part of the world, but she was cure
After everything, all of it, was handled, Marcus suddenly burst out in tears."What's the matter, my son?" Missus Shaw has lost three sons and he was the only son left by her side. When she saw her son crying like that, it was only natural that she felt very saddened."Mom…I just feel that karma really is a funny thing. It's really making a fool of all of us! It turned out that everything was already destined. Everything was destined!" Marcus was covered in tears.Missus Shaw was confused. "What's the matter, my child?"Marcus cried and then he smiled. "Mom, I've finally understood why God let Yvonne go through this disaster that lasted for five years. It turned out that God had given her the biggest hardship which seemed so inhumane, but God had given her the best reward. Otherwise, the person who truly died would've been my Yvonne, wouldn't it? I would've been my Yvonne."Hearing him saying that, Missus Shaw said extremely emotionally as well, "That's right. At the end of it all
The fake Yvonne was still conscious the second before she died. She watched herself fall over with her eyes widened. She never would have expected it. After she had plotted everything, she was only one step away from the wedding, and then she could have replaced the real Yvonne and truly be a part of the high society of South City and be the wife of a rich man. However, she was fatally shot. Who was it?There was no time for her to look into it in detail before she fell to the ground. All of her regrets were forever sealed in her body. Without even a cry or shouting, she fell to the ground. She was feeling so reluctant to accept defeat that her heart had already stopped beating but her eyes were still wide open.Marcus was also stunned. He did intend to have Bonnie's entire gang arrested in one go, and he had already done it. The police were simply there that day to have this group of people surrounded. However, never in a million years would Marcus expect that someone would kill Bon
Two female attendants wheeled out a completely sealed glass cart. The ring that was carefully kept inside the glass cart was truly colorful and dazzling. Every side of the gem was radiating in different colors as the light shone upon it through the glass chart. The fake Yvonne was stunned silly when she saw it. Another person who was also stunned silly was the tan and fat man holding a pair of binoculars while sitting in a car across from the jewelry store.The tan and fat man muttered, "Gosh! This man must love her so much. He actually is willing to spend so much on her! This woman really deserves to die! She deserves to die too much!"Inside the jewelry store, Marcus looked at the fake Yvonne gently. "Do you like the ring I'm giving you?"The fake Yvonne was so excited that tears streamed down her face. "I like it. I love it too much! I truly love it so much!""I should've given you this ring four years ago. It was such a pity that at that time…""It's fine, hubby, it's fine. Is
All thirty people in the banquet hall were stunned. At that moment, they still have not made sense of what the hell has happened. How come a group of police came in once Yvonne left? Did they arrest the wrong people?"No, officer, we're…friends of Master Marcus of the Shaw family in South City. We've saved his wife. Master Marcus even said he is going to give me two apartments as gifts. Did you…have the wrong place?" Bella boldly asked the police at that moment.Nobody answered Bella. A few police officers came up and confiscated all of their phones. Not a single one was left behind.Bella could not hold herself back anymore and said while trembling, "We're Marcus' friends. He is not an ordinary person in South City. If Marcus knew that you've arrested us, when the time comes…"A police officer sneered. "The people we're arresting are all of you, the group of Marcus' friends!""Huh? Why?" Bella did not understand. Actually, she was not too familiar with the law. She just knew tha
"A billion dollars! Isn't he just insulting us, the three Shaw brothers? Marcus loves this bitch so much! When I see her looking so happy, I just want to kill her immediately! I have to have her killed!"At this end of the call, the tan and fat man asked Marcus' eldest brother very respectfully, "Sir, as long as you give an order. Just tell me, how do you want to get this woman killed? Why don't I kill her now?""No!" Marcus' brother stopped him and said. "It's not the best time now. There are too many people in there, so it's not going to be easy for you to escape. I only have a loyal servant like you. I can't let you die. You have to find a place outside that you can easily run away after getting the deed done. Now is not the right time!"The tan and fat man instantly said, "Alright, Sir, whatever you say. I'll find an even messier place and have this woman killed! I'll be hanging up now, sir!"After he hung up the call, the tan and fat man continued watching everything inside th
When Bella heard Marcus saying that, she immediately said shyly, "Gosh, how can I trouble Master Marcus in everything? No…there's nothing else.""Come on, Bella, whatever difficulties you have, just say it. My husband is the second most powerful person in South City anyway. There's really nothing he can't do." The fake Yvonne lifted her head and looked at Marcus coquettishly. "Am I right, hubby?"Marcus looked at the fake Yvonne very dotingly. "Baby, what do you think? I'm a husband that you've picked, so could you have been mistaken?""That's right!" The fake Yvonne happily leaned her head on Marcus' shoulder. Marcus hugged the fake Yvonne and was feeling so disgusted that he almost threw up. This Yvonne and his Yvonne indeed look very alike. They looked extremely alike! If this Yvonne did not speak and remained quiet, Marcus would feel that this is his Yvonne and his wife whom he had been thinking of all day and all night. However, the real Yvonne would never make such a request o
Of course, the fake Yvonne agreed. Three days later, they held a banquet for the fake Yvonne's benefactors at the most luxurious hotel in South City. Some of them were out-of-towners. There were also some from South City. Marcus roughly scanned them and surely, the middle-aged woman was there. She was the woman who was staying in the same area with Mila back then and the one who suggested letting Mile do a DNA test.Marcus held the fake Yvonne's hand and came to the middle-aged woman. "Miss, do you still recognize me?"The fake Yvonne immediately introduced her to him. "Darling, let me tell you, this is the lady who had helped me the most. Her name is Bella Hughes. She has always been taking great care of me, including the time I had a miscarriage. She was the one who took care of me. I feel we should give her two apartments!"The middle-aged woman named Bella immediately waved. "No need, no need. There's really no need for that. To be able to escort you back to your husband's side
