“Other than these words, don’t you have other things to say to your man?” The man was acting strange.His tone sounded as if he was scolding her.However, it also sounded like flirting between a husband and wife.He had never spoken to her with such a tone before. Sabrina could not guess what he was thinking, so she lowered her voice slightly and said, “Were you asking me why I would show up at the café with Nigel today?”The man asked her, “Did you want to explain?”Sabrina said, “I don’t.” If she even did, he would not listen, and he would not believe it either. Once, six years ago, they had many misunderstandings between them during the two months when she was taking care of Grace.She tried to explain, but he never gave her a chance.Therefore, she stopped explaining later.The man said, “Then don’t explain.”Sabrina agreed, “Mm.”She asked again, “May I… May I go to my room now?”With a sweeping motion, the man carried her in his arms instead. “You… Didn’t we just…l
He was once abroad for so many years. He had also gone through fire and water as he was a part of the special forces for more than a decade. He had perfected a steel-like determination. Would he still be afraid of being tickled by his own woman?Sabrina, on the other hand, still looked calm, lonely, and silent on the surface while she was only a pitiful girl wrapped up in many layers after six years.The man sneered. He abruptly got up, hugged her and suddenly started to tickle her underarms.“Oh…” The woman could not stop laughing at once.He only cautioned her not to make a sound this late at night, so she would not disturb their surrounding neighbors’ rest. She also did not dare to laugh out loud and struggled significantly. She could only stuff herself in his embrace to hide. She shamelessly clung onto his strong waist with both hands to prevent his sneak attacks and stuck against his body like an octopus without budging.The man’s arms also followed along and hugged her tig
Sabrina was lying in Sebastian’s arms and did not move. She passively listened to him as he communicated with the other person on the phone. “I know. I would arrange a time to bring her to try it on.”“If there should be any good rubies in the future, keep it too.”“Her fingers are very thin. I’ll bring her to be sized, and we will see.”All the exchanges made on the phone were about “her”.Who could “she” be?Could it be her, Sabrina?A thought flashed past, and Sabrina could not help it and laughed at herself. ‘You’re overthinking.’The man hung up the phone and put it back on top of the bedside table. He lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms. The woman’s smooth yet messy hair spread across his chest, which made her palm-size face even smaller to the point that it was almost invisible.She shut her eyes tightly, and her long and curled eyelashes twitched a little. He could tell that she was not asleep. However, she seemed so calm. She was so calm that sh
#She instantly blushed like a ripened tomato.However, she was beyond annoyed. “It was you! It was all because of you! You had to take off all the clothes every time we slept. You took them off even if we did not do that kind of activity. I… I was in a hurry, and I had forgotten all about it! You were so nasty!”She did not care for anything else but raised her hand and stripped the shirt, which he had on but had not buttoned yet, off him. She managed to take it off with just a few moves, and she put it on herself immediately. She messily buttoned the shirt up and ran out in embarrassment. The man was speechless.He was not slandering her to say that she was a robber. She truly was addicted to wearing his shirts. It looked like he had to order a few more shirts in the future. The man took another shirt from the closet and put it on. He wore his tie, pants, and suit. When he came out neatly dressed, Sabrina and Aino had already been sitting at the dining table. The family o
“I wouldn’t be as unreasonable as you!” The man shut his eyes to rest after saying that.Sabrina did not say anything, and she suddenly smiled.She did not smile much. Kingston had not seen the madam smile before. However, when she smiled, it was still the same as six years ago. It was just as sweet. It was just as neat. She still seemed calm, straightforward, aloof and was a person with a few words just like six years ago. However, deep in her heart, she was a girl who would sparkle if you gave her a little warm light. “Madam, should I send you to the company?” asked Kingston. Sabrina nodded. “Mmm, thank you, Assistant Yates.”“It’s my duty, Madam.” Kingston turned the car around and headed towards the direction of the company where Sabrina worked.When they arrived at the company, she still had ten minutes before she had to clock in. After getting out of the car, Sabrina looked up at the bright sun and smiled even brighter. Everything was still just as good. She d
Yvonne immediately said anxiously, “However, Sabrina, no matter what anybody had said about you, I would never believe them! I guess you had no relationship with Nigel at all, and things between the both of you were innocent. There was nothing at all. If there were any rumors, then it must have been that playboy Nigel who came onto you, right? My guess must be right!”“It must absolutely be it!”Yvonne’s extremely determined tone made Sabrina particularly touched.Sabrina looked at Yvonne with gratitude. “Yvonne, why did you believe me so firmly?”“Of course!” said Yvonne proudly. She continued to say, “If it was in terms of family background, Master Ryan’s background in Kidon City is much better than the Conor family now. Who did the Conor family think they were? The Conor family was still considered as among the top tier in South City six years ago, but now, the Conor family almost had nothing left after being acquired by the Ford Group. People in the entire South City were sti
Sabrina and Yvonne turned around and saw Ruth, who they had not seen in days.Ruth had a furious expression. “What a good saying, a person who had done nothing wrong would not be afraid of the shadows. My cousin-in-law came looking for you immediately after his flight landed, and he did it in front of the whole company without hiding at all. You were saying a person who had done nothing wrong would not be afraid of the shadows instead. Sabrina, nobody would believe what you had said”Sabrina was beyond impatient. “Why would I say that to nobody?”“That’s right! Why would Sabrina say that to nobody?” Yvonne angrily retaliated against Ruth verbally and defended Sabrina like a fan. Yvonne used to be afraid of Ruth, but things are different now.She saw that Sabrina was not afraid of Ruth at all, and Sabrina even drove Ruth out of the company in one fell swoop, so Yvonne felt proud and elated herself. What was so great about Ruth?She only got in by relying on her cousins’ honor!
Sabrina was too lazy to argue with Ruth anymore. “I’m sorry, but I should go to work now. Please do not disturb me. If you slandered me in the company again and affected my work, then I would consider calling the police.”Sabrina said while pulling Yvonne, “Yvonne, let’s go in and ignore her.”Yvonne and Sabrina went in together. They were almost turning the corner, but Yvonne still turned her head to face Ruth and gave her a face. “Hmph, neener neener!” “I’m so pissed! I’m so pissed! The two of you, wait and see! Wait until my cousin returns from Kidon City, and I would teach you a lesson!” Ruth yelled from the front desk with hands on her waist.She knew that the two main shareholders were not around these few days anyway. The major shareholder, Marcus, had not been to the company for two to three weeks because of Grandpa Shaw’s condition, and Ryan was usually quite mysterious with his whereabouts, not to mention that Ryan was also in Kidon City these two days.Therefore,
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
