Sabrina did not react in time and only blurted out, “What injuries?”Sebastian was exasperated.This woman truly was slow-witted like a wood log!“I had not fed you in six years, and I suddenly stuffed you so much, even wounds were sustained from being stretched! Did your injuries heal?” Sebastian said in detail. “Pfft!” Alex, who was sitting on the couch, did not manage to hold himself back and bursted out laughing. After he laughed, he said, “Sebastian, you’re so tall and well-built, and my sister-in-law is so petite. Couldn’t you take it easier?”Sabrina’s face instantly turned blood-colored from blushing. “You…” She covered her face with both her hands as if that would keep her blush from being seen. “Women who were easily shy like my sister-in-law are rare nowadays. No wonder you were not willing to bring her out. You were afraid that the environment would pollute her purity.” “But Sebastian…” Alex sneaked a glance at Sebastian. At this moment, Sebastian was in front
Sabrina did not know how to answer. Did he owe them money for the formula?Yes!However, would he pay?He would never acknowledge Aino. He would only treat Aino as his shame.Sabrina forcefully swallowed her bitterness, then said to Aino with a smile, “Aino, let me know where are you at now? Have you had lunch yet? Were you used to the food? Were you scared, and did you miss me?”Aino pondered a little and said, “Mom, actually, the stinky bum was quite nice to me. He fed me really nice custards and also pumpkin pie for lunch. They were my favorite foods. I am missing you a little, Mom. Are you coming to find me? I am only one floor above the stinky bum. Where is this place?”Aino turned around and looked at the young lad that she smashed with slime earlier. “Brother, where is this place?”The handsome young lad immediately answered, “Reporting to the little princess, this is the Planning Department.”“I’m at the Planning Department, Mom.”‘Planning Department’Sabrina got u
Sebastian’s expression suddenly changed. “What did you say?”Sabrina’s heart was frosty. She met Selene as soon as she left the house, and she clearly heard what Selene said. Selene was still Sebastian’s fiancée. On the other hand, Sabrina was one of his tools. A tool only to make money and pay off the debt. The man that was sitting on the couch had great dignity and was no ordinary man. Since he could sit in Sebastian’s office and have a conversation with her, there was no doubt that he should be one of Sebastian’s clients. Sebastian asked her to keep those clients accompanied. It should only be the beginning. However, when would the ending be? It should be the day when she was rotten and smelled to death. Sabrina could not help but felt pity and sorrow when she thought of her fate. The arms that were around Aino also tightened a little. “I would obey your orders. I would do anything you asked me to do. I only had one request. Please let Aino live for the sake that she
The man sneered, “Weren’t you in a hurry to be with a man? Were you that anxious?”Sabrina stammered, “Wha…What?” Her teeth were chattering in fear. However, the man did not stop pressing her because she was frightened. He approached her step by step.Sabrina backed up step by step until she was pushed against the heel of the couch and had nowhere else to retreat. The man took a big step and rushed over. With a bent of his waist, he scooped the woman into his arms. “Woman! Were you so eager to accompany a man?”Sabrina was so frightened that her tears almost came out. “Weren't you the one who asked me to accompany them?”“You took my daughter as a hostage!”“You took her away as you pleased. You tell me, what other things could I do?”“It was you who asked me to accompany the men, then get some profit off them so that I could pay you back, and the person who is questioning me now was still you.” “Could it be that because we, an orphan and a single mother, had no ability to fi
Sabrina was speechless.Of course, she knew what he meant by “teach her.”She used both her hands to push against Sebastian in an attempt to break free. She could not let him know that he had already hunted her down and made her hide everywhere, but deep down, she still longed for his appearance and his embrace. A spineless woman like her really deserved such an insult.“No!” She pushed him outwards as hard as she could.“No?” The man sneered. “Just a moment ago, you were in a hurry, and you asked to be with a man. So, why don’t you want it now? Were you trying to play hard-to-get again?”Sabrina's cheeks were flushed red by what Sebastian said. She felt extremely wronged and said incoherently, “I was in a hurry! Wasn’t it because you asked me to pay you back ten million dollars as soon as possible? I owe you ten million, my daughter is in your hands, tell me what I should do?” Sabrina sobbed. Was he trying to press her to death?“What you should do, you know it very well i
The secretary pushed the door open, and her eyes widened in shock immediately at the sight before her. The Director was sitting upright on the luxurious office chair that was made specifically for him, and sitting on his lap, was a woman. The Director’s suit covered the woman, and her hair was all tangled up as she nestled her head onto the man's shoulder. Her arms were wrapped around the Director.The secretary was no fool. Although she couldn't see the woman's face to identify her, she instinctively realized that this woman must be extremely close with the Director.The secretary had been working at the Ford Group for three years, and over the time of her employment, she had reported to the Director every day with contracts for him to sign. She had never seen the presence of a woman in the Director's office, let alone for one to appear on the Director's lap. The secretary instantly came to the conclusion that she had knocked at the wrong time."I'm...I'm so sorry, Direct
Countless members of the higher management came looking for Sebastian for the rest of the day, either to discuss contracts or the projects they were working on.However, they were all reminded of the small child the director had brought to the office earlier today upon seeing the sign outside the door. They were all intelligent individuals who knew instinctively that the mother shouldn't be far behind if the child were there.Sabrina finally regained consciousness when she was moved to sit beside the windows of the inner bedroom. They were on the 66th floor of the building, and without anything blocking the windows, she could see everything from afar, and so could the others if they decided to look in. For a moment, Sabrina felt as though she had been lying to herself for her entire life and the woman in the present was who she really was. She could not help but felt ashamed for her true self, so much so that she couldn't face the reality that her true self was somehow discover
"I want to see my mommy!" Aino shouted without hesitation.The door immediately swung open, and Kingston took it as the cue for him to leave. Aino stepped in as though she was the owner of the place and found her mother resting in the bedroom."Mommy, why were you sleeping on the bed again?" She asked curiously."Um, mommy was feeling a little bit unwell, baby. So tell me, did you eat well?" Sabrina asked."Mommy, Aino ate so much that my stomach was full. It was fun. Uncle Kingston told me a lot of stories," said Aino. Although she decided that Uncle Kingston and Stinky Bum were becoming less and less annoying, had it not been for her mother's fear of the man, Aino might have started calling Stinky Bum ‘daddy’."Mommy, were you sick? Did you have a fever?" Aino touched Sabrina's forehead tentatively with concern."Mommy is okay," Sabrina lowered her voice, feeling guilty as she spoke, "Mommy just felt sorry that I almost forgot about you and your uncle.""Aino, your mother need
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
