“He died,” Sabrina said bluntly. Sebastian first froze for a moment as he did not expect such a reply from her.He curled his lips and smiled, “First get pregnant, then kill the man later? Your viciousness truly exceeded my expectations.”Sabrina did not speak again. Since any form of explanation would be a wasted effort, it was better to not deny and silently agree with everything to the end.She looked up. “Have you decided to keep me still to console your mother?”“Don’t tell me that you want to break the contract?” Sebastian asked instead. “You have exposed my deceptive scheme, I thought you…”Sebastian interrupted her with a sneer. “Since the contract has been signed, you must serve my mother obediently until she dies! Your scheme? You would first have to see if your schemes could be tougher than my tactics!”Sabrina was speechless. The man turned around and was about to leave, but Sabrina called out to him from behind. “You… Wait a minute.”Sebastian looked back at
“We’ve been through many hardships to be where we are today. I have endured sufferings that are beyond his imagination to protect him. Likewise, to protect me, the counterattack that he struck up was also something beyond my imagination as a mother. Sebastian has made a lot of enemies along the way to achieve his success today. If he found out that I longed for the land of the Ford Residence, Sebastian would let me move in at all costs. I didn’t want him to make a big fuss for me.” Grace’s tone was regretful, but it was more accurate to say she felt sorry for her son. However, Sabrina heard the loneliness of a woman’s life in it.Grace had never worn a wedding dress and had never been recognized by the Ford family in her life. Grace still could not fulfill her wish because she had layers of concerns even though her son had control of everything now.How similar could the fate of Grace and Sabrina be?They both were pregnant out of wedlock.Grace had been alone her whole life, and
Selene sat on the round stool and was looking at Sebastian with admiration. The way Sebastian looked as he placed one arm on the edge of the couch, crossed his long legs, and clutched a flickering cigar in his hand gave others a cold and heartless feeling. The coffee table between the two of them had several exquisite desserts on it. Macarons, soufflés, chocolate crumbles, and Sacher tortes. Each one was tiny and could be eaten in one bite. However, each of them would cost ten to $20 USD per piece.Selene’s favorite was the peach pudding.Sabrina had never eaten such delicate and lovely little desserts, but she recognized most of them.When she used to live in the Lynn family, she often saw Selene eating them.Selene grew up with a good life from a young age. If Selene wanted something, Lincoln and Jade would satisfy her. Now, Selene has a wealthy and powerful boyfriend like Sebastian. Sebastian would also buy everything to let her eat as she liked.Sabrina subconsciously to
Sabrina did not answer Selene, but only calmly looked at Sebastian. “I’ll put my bag inside, then leave immediately. I would be back in three or four hours. You guys… carry on.”She did not get mad, and her expression was extremely calm. However, Sebastian sensed detachment, indifference, determination, and bleak helpless self-protection from her.Sebastian felt the desire to conquer her.He knew that she had already confessed her intentions, deliberately deceived his mother, and carried a b*stard in her belly to trick him, but he still had this idea.The man’s expression was initially not too good, but it became extremely harsh and stern as if he was suppressing his irritation. Sabrina went in and put her bag down, counted the few changes she had, and took out five dollars from it. She went out again. She did not even look at Sebastian and Selene. The door closed with a bang. Selene resentfully said, “Sabrina must have gone out to fool around with other men again. She wa
Sabrina was startled. She focused on adapting to the darkness and realized Sebastian was sitting alone on the couch. He had an unlit cigar in his mouth, both his hands on his knees. He had a slight frown and was examining Sabrina with his deep black eyes. “You…” Sabrina was going to ask Sebastian, why was he still awake? Also, where was Selene?However, she did not ask. She was shocked by Sebastian’s expression. “Come here!” Sebastian’s words were like an imperial decree, and Sabrina was not allowed to resist.Sabrina felt like she was a mistress of Sebastian that had lost his affection, was lowly and committed a mistake.Sebastian asked her to come over, and she did not dare to disobey.Sabrina bit her lips and came to Sebastian’s side. “Is there anything?”Her tone was calm and natural.Sebastian, on the other hand, sneered in his heart. After Sabrina left, he chased Selene away. Although he had one night with Selene, he did not have the slightest interest in her b
She had no ability to fight against these wealthy men with high status. They treated her like a plaything, an ant, and a piece of grass.She was penniless, had nothing to fall back on, and was exhausted.She did not want to fight anymore.If she was humiliated again today, then she would end her life.It could be a happy thing to be able to take her baby to reunite with her mother. The man suddenly got up after looking at the obedient Sabrina. His gaze that looked downwards onto Sabrina was even more in contempt.“No woman that I, Sebastian Ford, wanted to get into bed with would resist! You, on the other hand, are not worthy!” Sebastian said coldly, “You listen to me well! While you still have a marital relationship with me during this month or so, you'd better behave yourself and don't fool around with any men! I'm only giving you this one chance for a warning!”The man dropped her and got up to leave after saying that.Sabrina was speechless. She fooled around with men?
There was another man in Nigel's car.Sabrina shook her head, "Thank you, Master Nigel, but I think I would take the bus.”"We don't bite. This is my best friend Zayn! Get in already!" Nigel's tone did not offer any room for negotiation and sounded more like an order, "I know that you had a lot of work to do each day, that happens for all new employees, it would get better. Get on, I'll give you a ride!"Sabrina bit her lip hesitantly and finally caved. The other man in the car that was called Zayn seemed modest and courteous. He regarded Sabrina with respect and greeted, "Young Mistress Ford, I've heard all about you.”Sabrina smiled gently and bowed her head. The two men sitting before her came from wealthy backgrounds, the type of person that she had never once dealt with before. She was clueless about how to interact with them, not to mention how to please them. She had therefore decided it was best for her to remain silent."Back to my cousin's place?" Nigel asked.Her phone
She was in desperate need of money at the moment. Nigel seemed to have seen right through her and said with a cavalier attitude, "What I had given you couldn't be over $3,000 USD. What's wrong? Were you afraid that I was trying to buy a night of your time with that? Relax! I'm not interested in you! I only thought that a country girl like you was too pathetic. Consider this as charity work. If you really couldn’t accept it as it is, you could pay me back in installments in the future every time you received your pay.""Thank you," Sabrina blushed with her hands on the money."Also! My time is far too precious. Stop wasting my time. The next time I say I'm going to give you a ride, you should get in the car immediately," Nigel said mischievously as he stared at the reflection of a blushing Sabrina from the rear-view mirror of his car."Okay," Sabrina nodded obediently and turned to look outside the window calmly without another word. However, she was trying to keep the butterflies sh
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
