“Yes, young master!” The bodyguards acknowledged. Selene’s legs gave in and she almost fell on the ground. The only reason she did not was because the bodyguards next to her prevented it. Sebastian’s bodyguards were all very well trained. Since Sebastian had ordered them to look after Selene and make sure nothing happened to Selene’s baby, the bodyguards naturally made sure they were responsible for it.However, Lincoln and Jade both collapsed on the ground. The two of them did not react for a long time, only watching, stunned, as Sebastian left.“No…” Jade howled, and then fainted on the spot.Lincoln only looked at his wife and at two of the bodyguards carrying his daughter, dispirited.The three of them were being confined and looked after like criminals.After exiting the hall, Sebastian arrived at his own car, Kingston was waiting for him. “Young master, Sabrina was hit by a heavy truck, and now her whereabouts are unknown. The driver fled as well.”Sebastian said, “Unders
Lincoln was shocked. “What did you say?”Jade held onto Lincoln’s leg. “Lincoln, think of a plan quickly. What do we do now? Sebastian has confined us here, we won’t be able to escape. If Selene gives birth and Sebastian knows it’s not his child, we will be tortured to death. Lincoln…”“Dad! Dad, think of a plan, dad…” Selene crawled to Lincoln and hugged Lincoln’s leg.Lincoln was beyond furious. He grabbed Jade’s hair, viciously asking, “What happened?! Tell me!”Jade did not dare to retaliate, bearing the pain. She trembled. “I wanted Sebastian to hate Sabrina even more. I thought that, with how bad her reputation was after being humiliated by Kenton in broad daylight, being fought over by Nigel and Zayn and being venomously berated by the Shaw family’s old master, that Sabrina’s reputation was already at rock bottom in South City. Even Old Master Ford has shown up to deal with the matter. If, during Selene and Sebastian’s wedding, we could add fuel to the fire and force Sabrina
“That’s right!” Jade smiled cunningly. “I want Sabrina to die! If she dies, Selene will be able to gain her happiness! I never expected that Sebastian would suddenly regret the wedding at the last moment!” Lincoln looked at Jade with a dark expression. “I never expected that you would be so cruel as well!”Jade was speechless.Lincoln suddenly had a relaxed smile on his face. “Whatever, if she dies she dies. She should have died long ago, she should have just died in prison. Or she should have died when she was kidnapped, Kenton should have killed her off. She’s already lived for over a month too long.”Jade looked at Lincoln, full of hope. “Sabrina’s death is the first step, but how do we get out of our current predicament?”“We won't escape!” Lincoln said, “As long as an accident kills the child in Selene’s belly, we can pin the blame on the bodyguards or the servants. That way, even if Sebastian tries to catch us, we won’t be able to. And Selene, you remain his lawful wife.”
In that foreign city, Sabrina knew no one, and did not know any directions. She did not even have a phone. She tried using Zayn’s phone, but she did not have the password, so she could not unlock it.As Sabrina was staring at the unconscious Zayn hopelessly, Zayn’s phone rang.Picking it up, it was Marcus calling. Sabrina trembled as she answered the phone, “Hello, Young Master Shaw…”“Sabbie, you’re…you’re crying? What’s wrong, are you okay? Isn’t Zayn with you? Why are you answering his phone?” Marcus asked.“Zayn…he’s unconscious and has a fever. The wound on his hand is rotting a bit. I don’t have a phone, and I don’t know where to find a doctor, nor do I know where the hospital is…” The usually strong and quiet Sabrina was incredibly helpless at that moment.“Listen, Sabbie, you need to save Zayn, or he might die. You need to calm down. Go look for a phone booth and dial the emergency number. Get Zayn into an operation room first, and we’ll talk about everything else later. L
"But that's because my aunt..." Marcus started."This has nothing to do with your aunt! So what if that woman has a few similarities with your aunt? You said that Sabrina looks like your aunt, but if it's up to me, I would say that Sebastian Ford's fiancé, Selene Lynn, looks like your aunt as well!" The Old Master yelled in frustration as he struggled to contain his urge to kick his grandson."Lynn who?" asked Oliver.The Old Master sighed and explained. "As you all know, Sebastian Ford is a vicious man who never hesitates to get his hands dirty. The Lynn Family provided a lot of assistance when he struggled to gain the upper hand back then, especially Lincoln Lynn's daughter Selene Lynn. She sacrificed herself to save Sebastian Ford. When Sebastian Ford was in danger, she offered her innocence in exchange for his safety and is now pregnant with his child. Sebastian Ford might be cruel, but he's also a responsible man. Given what had happened before to his mother, it is only natural
Meanwhile, Sabrina had her cell phone turned off as she was told by Zayn. Right after she got off the phone with Marcus the first time, she ran to a phone booth nearby and called 911 for emergency. The ambulance arrived in no time and Zayn regained consciousness shortly after he was carried into the ambulance.He took one look at Sabrina who was sobbing frantically and said, "Sabrina, don't cry. Don't beat yourself up over this, I will live."Sabrina nodded in response. "Zayn, thank you for risking your life to come save me. I received a call from Master Shaw just now, he said that...Sebastian Ford is looking everywhere for us. I had destroyed his wedding and he will never let me off the hook for that. That truck might not have hit me, but there are billions of ways he could think of to have me killed if he wants to. Thank you, Zayn, and sorry for dragging you into this...""Wait, what did you say?" Zayn scowled. "Marcus called?"Sabrina nodded again. "Why?""Switch your phone off
"I just never imagined that he would...""I know. I understand." Zayn smiled. "You are not in love with Nigel, and you most certainly wouldn't fall in love with me either. Sabrina, trust me when I say I have no intention of making you fall in love with me. I am the one who has been charmed helplessly by you and so, I am willing to do anything for you. Rest assured, I will never do anything to harm you or force you into doing what you are not willing to, ever.""Thank you, Zayn. I will take care of you," Sabrina promised, in tears. She was a woman of her words and for the rest of Zayn's time spent in the hospital, she never once left his side. Sabrina had also tossed his phone away as he requested. Even so, when Zayn was finally discharged a month later, they found it.A few men surrounded them by the entrance of the hospital and dragged them towards their vehicle. The two were helpless, Zayn barely recovered from his injury and Sabrina being pregnant. They were thrown into a black
Five years later.The rays of setting sun in the evening shone on Sabrina's slim figure, coating her in the golden light. She was wearing an overall with safety helmet on her head, occupied in commanding the progress at the construction site."Madam Scott, I am amazed by just how effective your proposal is. Our expenses for this batch were significantly reduced in comparison to previous batches and the quality of the materials we are using are much better too. The configuration is simply far too thought-out to be sold at this price. I heard that a lot of the apartments had been sold to owners that had high praise for the design and materials," said the constructor gratefully to Sabrina."Manager Ward, you shouldn't have to call me that. I am no professional architect. Just call me Sabrina." Sabrina smiled gently in return."Heavens no! Madam Scott, you might not have the title of an architect, but your abilities have spoken for itself and proven you more than worthy of the title. E
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
