Sabrina stared at Sebastian with a puzzled look on her face. “Why? Do you want the Ford family to acknowledge me?”She started to smile. “I don’t think such an honor would be bestowed onto me. If I go there, things will only get messy. It would be better if I stayed here.”The way she said that so calmly caused Sebastian to choke on his words.When the grip on her hand suddenly relaxed, Sabrina took the chance to escape to her room.The Ford Residence!She had been there twice. The first time was when Sebastian had brought her there after she was first released from prison. The second time was right before she escaped South City, when Henry had called her there and Sabrina had been deeply humiliated.If anything, Sabrina wished to never step foot into the Ford Residence again.She just wanted to look for a job in peace.After shutting the door to her room, Sabrina looked at the resume Sebastian had prepared for her again. In truth, she was very thankful to Sebastian for giving
That can’t be right!Didn’t people always say that quarrels between spouses never last through the night?Even Kingston, who had never gotten married, knew that much. Perhaps the madam simply did not allow the young master near her last night?Kingston was starting to speculate in his mind when Aino stared at Kingston with her large black eyes. “Uncle Kingston, who’s madam?”Kingston replied, “Your mother!”He then turned to Sebastian. “Young Master, is madam still getting herself ready upstairs?” Women did have to make more preparations before going out.However, just as Kingston had finished saying those words, he heard two separate accounts from the father and daughter.“She doesn’t want to go to the old residence!”“My Stinky Dad doesn’t want my mother to come with us!”Kingston didn’t know how to respond.Fine!He decided to keep his mouth shut and opened the car doors for the two of them. Once they had gotten into the car, he walked to the driver seat.Not a singl
The pair had surprisingly similar facial features. The father looked regal in his suit, and exuded a cold and imperious aura to all those around him. In stark contrast, the little one who was holding his hand had dressed in a fiery red outfit, and looked very festive.Even when standing upright, she was only slightly taller than the man’s knee.The little red bundle of joy was extremely cute.However, upon closer inspection, she also had a stubborn and arrogant look about her.The sight of the two of them walking hand in hand stirred up the room.Just yesterday, Old Master Henry had called each and every one of the guests and asked them to attend a banquet in the Ford family home. People who had ties with the Ford family had more or less known that Sebastian had captured a woman back here, and that the woman’s daughter looked a lot like Sebastian.At that moment, when everyone saw Sebastian bring the child but not the woman along with him, they were aware of what it meant. Sebast
As she widened her eyes and rolled them a few times, the five year old Aino began to hatch an evil plan.“Little girl, come over here. Let your great grandpa have a closer look at you. I’ve missed you, come here.” As he saw Aino walk over boldly, Henry waved at her.The old lady next to him started to smile too as she looked at the little girl walking towards them. She then turned to her son and daughter-in-law who were sitting next to her. “Sean, this little bundle of joy might be a girl, but she looks just like you when you were younger. Look at how much she resembles you.”Sean, who was already over sixty, blushed at his mother’s words, “This child is Sebastian’s daughter, so she looks like Sebastian.”The old lady admonished him, “Isn’t Sebastian your son?!”Sean didn’t know how to respond.“Daughter-in-law,” the old lady then called out to Rose. “I’ll give you this, so she can be considered your granddaughter. It’s a family heirloom of the Ford family, go put it on the child
“You… What did you just say?” The woman’s expression suddenly changed.Aino did not let go of her nose, and looked at the beautiful woman in disdain. She did not like her at all!It was her own fault for having her eyes fixated on the Stinky Bum!Stinky Bum may be stinky too, but no matter what, he was only allowed to be her mother’s man. That meant no other women could have him.Aino became very unhappy.“You… You’re too stinky, please move away from me and my daddy. If you keep standing close to my daddy, and we end up being stinky too, my mother will punish us when we get home. When we’re at home, both my daddy and I are most afraid of my mother.”The woman exclaimed, “You…”She was furious!She wanted to vent her anger, but did not dare do so.The woman was a distant relative from Rose’s maiden family, which did not consist of that many members to begin with, let alone any close nieces. Thus, in order to secure her position in the Ford family, Rose had to resort to dirty t
“Come here, Aino, come to me. This will be your home in the future, so let me bring you around to see the courtyard.”Frost had seemed like a very intelligent, mature and understanding woman.She easily resolved the awkwardness that Sebastian had felt. She was definitely much better than Selene, who was not present, in that regard.As she was saying that, Frost reached out to hold Aino’s hand.However, Aino felt incredibly disgusted at that woman who kept trying to harass her. She was much worse than the little kids at her kindergarten! Aino retracted her arms instantly and ran to hide behind her Stinky Dad.When she saw that, Frost’s expression turned incredibly ugly.The guests in attendance could not help but cover their mouths to hide their laughter.How embarrassing was that? Young Master Sebastian clearly had a fiance, who was simply late that day. If Old Master Shaw really did bring his long lost granddaughter along with him later, that woman would be put in a dangerous s
When Frost heard the five year old girl’s words, she suddenly forgot about the pain in her feet. She got excited and started to ramble on, “Little princess, what… What did you say? Can you repeat yourself?”The little girl said with a serious tone, “After all, my father will need to find a woman to be his wife. You’ve treated me so well, and you’re even pretty and gentle, so why don’t I just make my father marry you. That way you can treat me like this all the time.“Right?”“That’s right! Little princess, listen to me. The type of woman your father ends up marrying will be of great importance to you. Just think about it, after your father marries a woman, you will have to stay with her. What if that woman wants to beat you?” Frost felt like she had just stumbled upon a big opportunity.Aino looked at her innocently. “That’s why I want to help you get my father.”“Alright, alright, princess, tell me what you want me to do, I’ll listen to you. In the future, I’ll even treat you lik
Frost could not help but snort.It would only be weird if he did!A daughter of a criminal... Who could possibly love her?!As she was thinking about this, Frost started to do some planning in her head. She then patted Aino’s head and said, “I’ll help you with the artwork later.”Aino shook her head. “There’s no need, I want to finish it myself. That’s the only way I can show my sincerity.” Frost was left speechless. Aino was a genius.She decided that once she had married into the family, the first thing she needed to do was to get rid of that child prodigy!“Alright, I’ll do as you say,” Frost finally said.The crayons arrived quickly. Money really helped speed things up. The servant had used the five hundred bucks to buy a big pile of crayons, which contained at least ten green ones. Aino took the crayons, the scissors and the paper and started to draw earnestly.Frost would occasionally try to take a look at what she was doing, but Aino would stop her every time, saying i
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
