Sean was speechless. It had been seven years since Grace passed away. He indeed had never set foot on her grave. Firstly, it was because Sebastian did not allow him to go. Secondly, if he were to visit Grace’s grave, Rose would also be upset. Sean had only once suggested visiting Grace’s grave on the 100th day since she had been buried. However, Rose cried at that time. “She is already dead and you’re still thinking of her. Did you really stop putting up an act and fall in love with her? Although Grace is dead, she has defeated me! The empire that you have and I had built with our all might and main has been inherited by her son! But what about us? One by one, our sons had all departed this life! Now, I am left all alone. Could it be that you still want to not care about me, a living person, and go to visit a dead person? Sean, do you know how great of a sacrifice have I made for you? Back then in Star Island, it was to save your life! Do you know how much I have endured for the sa
“I’m sorry, but it was precisely the Shaw family who sent you here. Just a moment ago, the Shaw family had just made a call to us asking to interrogate you and your daughter severely!”“No…my uncle won’t be this heartless to me. He had always loved me very much. He must have…,” Jennie trailed off.Not only did Jennie mutter to herself, but she also said to the police, “I’m begging you, please call my uncle, alright? He loves me very much. He had always loved me since young. He would be idle and watch me…”The police was irritated by Jennie so much that he was amused. “Old Master Shaw loved you so much like his own daughter since you were young, but you exhausted the ways to harm his own daughter?“I have never met such an ungrateful wretch like you in this world! You have harmed her daughter this way, he already could not hate you enough, why would he come and save you?”“But he had always loved me.”The police laughed. “No matter how much he loved you, would you have the k
Zayn was incomparably emotional. “Nigel…it’s been such a long time. You’ve changed so much.”Three months ago, Nigel had spoken with Zayn on the phone in close proximity, but he did not see him. This was the first time both Zayn and Nigel met each other in the past seven years. “Do you blame me?” Zayn asked Nigel. Nigel frowned at him. “What for?”Zayn glanced over at Sabrina, Aino, and Sebastian, who were sitting together on the couch. Sabrina had a gentle expression. Aino, on the other hand, was watching the three men standing by the door with her little eyes. She knew all three of them. They seemed to be quite close to her mother. Besides, only her mother and herself were ladies in this private room. They were her beloved uncle, her father’s cousin, one of them that seemed like her mother’s fan, as well as her dad….Oh! Aino sneakily glanced at her dad. Her dad looked quite calm. Aino then looked at the two men who were conversing by the door. She was certain that her
If Kingston was around, he would definitely think of ways to give a reminder to the little princess. “Little princess! If you continue with what you said, you’ll make your dad cry, alright! Do you think your dad is not miserable enough? Is there actually such a little girl like you who rubs salt in your father’s wound?”However, Kingston was not around at the moment, so no one reminded Aino. Sabrina only grumbled and glared at Aino. “Aino! You talk too much!”Aino asked, “Did I say anything wrong, Mom? Aren’t these four handsome men all here for you today? Just take my Uncle Marcus for example. He usually doesn’t have much interaction with my dad, alright? There’s also Uncle Nigel. He would be as terrified as a mouse seeing a cat whenever he meets my dad. Also, Uncle Zayn doesn’t even know my dad. However, they are all very close to you, Mom.”Sabrina was speechless. She secretly glanced at her own man. Sebastian was expressionless and it seemed like nothing had changed on his
“Mm-hmm! The word sorry is worth millions coming from you!” Sebastian said.The driver who was driving could not stifle his laugh and instantly burst out laughing.Kingston could tell how much heartbreak, helplessness and grievances his master’s words had carried. Even Aino, who was sitting in between her parents, also could not help but feel sorry for her father for a long while.“Dad…” Aino raised her head and looked at her dad. “Yes!” Sebastian answered. “I shouldn’t have called you Stinky Bum Dad,” Aino apologized sincerely. The man sneered. “You are quite honest.”He finally could tell that although the little child usually seemed to be very close to him, could not be apart with him for a day, and she would even be thinking of him in her dreams. She would still be closer to her mother at crucial moments. She simply was her mother’s best supporter! Aino laughed. She turned her head around and looked at Sabrina. “Mom, you also have to be honest.”Sabrina lowered
The man’s voice was coming through the door, so it felt like the volume was fluctuating. Sabrina followed the voice and came to the man’s study. Only then could she hear it increasingly clearer.It turned out that Sebastian was on a call in his study. Sabrina did not know who Sebastian had called. She just listened to the fragmented conversation. “Well, okay. I know.“If the share is not enough, we can negotiate again on Monday. Hmm? You bought it for her? She is not short of any gifts. Okay, then come over tomorrow. Oh right, regarding your cousin, you have to be careful. He would not just give it up like this. However, you don’t have to be afraid of him either. Everything would be explained by the Ford Group. You just need to do your part. After all, he is your cousin…”There was a pause.“Alright, if you think it’s appropriate to bring your parents for, then just bring them over. If there isn’t anything else, I'll hang up first.”Sebastian's tone sounded like it was dul
Sabrina stammered. “But-but I-I’ve already apologized to you.” Her heart was pounding hard. She had nowhere to put her hands. She wanted to put them on the man’s chest and grab his buttons, but when she saw the scratched on his chest, she did not dare to do it. With nowhere to place them, she could only hold up both her hands. Her little face was even more at loss.Without even blinking, Sebastian gazed at her with his deep-set eyes at the woman in his arms. Once he thought of her reaction yesterday, he truly wanted to eat her up. From his first time with her in the pitch-black night to the first time he picked her up outside the prison and until now, it has already been seven and a half years. Within the seven and a half years, she had presented herself with calmness for the majority of the time in front of him. She would either carefully wrap herself up and be as sensitive as if she was a hedgehog, or she would smile so sweetly that his brain would be jammed to seek a sense of warm
However, now that she thought about it, she truly was incomparably crazy yesterday. She had not even clarified the matter and she just came home to mess with him like that. No matter how called out to her and messed with her, she just looked away. Anyway, unlike her, he could never bear to scratch and injure her. She slept very soundly. She had no idea what time Sebastian got up and left the house along with Aino. That sleep was very good. No one came to disturb her at breakfast. When Sebastian took Aino out in the morning, he told Aunt Lewis before he left the house, “Let Sabrina sleep in. She did not sleep well last night and is sleep-deprived. It’s not too late for her to have breakfast after she wakes up by herself.”Therefore, Aunt Lewis had not woken Sabrina up. Sabrina was woken up by a phone call. She took it over and took a look. It was her man calling. She then scrunched up her nose and answered the call with a lazy and nasal tone. “Sebastian…”“You’re still not up?
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
