At worst, she would only face death. Now that Aino was with her father, whom she had grown close to, Sabrina could leave this world with no regrets. As such, she didn’t make a single sound as the four men tried to restrain her.“Sabbie…” Granduncle Scott called out, his eyes beginning to tear. Being the lonely old man he was, Granduncle Scott did not dare to get on the wrong side of rich business people like Coral, who had power and influence in the town.“Granduncle,” Sabrina said calmly, “I’m sorry for troubling you.”“Bring her back to the county town.” Heeding Coral’s order, the four men immediately walked out, dragging Sabrina along with them. The other villagers simply watched on as it all unfolded. In the end, the quiet and hardworking ones didn’t say anything. Being powerless themselves, they were afraid of crossing the wrong people. They could only sigh.Those who were standing in the crowd whispered to each other, “Sigh, if you don’t have many family members and are not
Sabrina immediately shouted at her, “You filthy woman, what are you planning to do with me!”Coral’s laugh was extremely nefarious. “Sabrina, you have only yourself to blame for getting on Ms. Lynn’s wrong side. In the past six years, the Lynns came here many times looking for you. Just to get close to Selene, I would spend tens of thousands of dollars every time they came to visit the town. I can’t just throw all that money away, can I? I’m going to use you to get back my money!”Sabrina snapped back furiously, “This is considered human trafficking! It’s illegal!”“Hah!” Coral snorted at her like a crazed woman. “Sabrina, you really don’t know your place, do you? In this small county town, on my land, you dare lecture me on breaking the law? Do you know how many connections I have in this town? If I wanted you dead, you would be gone within a few minutes, just like that. However, I won’t allow you to enjoy such an easy death. You’ll have to earn me a bucketful of cash first. Only t
Didn’t she live in desolate and abysmal conditions? How could she still look beautiful?Coral herself had been working ever since she graduated middle school. At one point, she even landed a job as an escort. Later on, after serving her clients as their drinking partners, she had begun offering more. She had already lost count of the number of men she slept with, but knew that most of them were ugly, old, bald, and had big beer bellies.To put it bluntly, Coral had sacrificed her youth and beauty to build up her current business and status.After having given up so much, it was no surprise that she wouldn’t just free Sabrina, who despite everything she had been through, still looked much prettier than herself. Coral longed to see Sabrina suffer, and at the same time earn a fortune for herself.When she saw the vicious smile on her cousin’s face, Sabrina began to feel despair. Her only hope was for Sebastian to come and rescue her. Please.However, she didn’t have her phone now
“Yo!” The man named Old Nine sneered. “Missy, do you know someone here? Coral told me that you’re from out of town, and that you’re not familiar with this place, so why are you barking so much?” With that, he stepped forward and tugged at Sabrina’s hair.However, Sabrina reacted instantly. She launched herself towards the man, grabbing onto his leg and before biting deeply into his calf muscles.“Ouch… you stupid bitch! Are you a mad dog! Hey, you mad dog! Let go of me! Coral! Coral! Where did you get this mad dog from! Order her to let go of me this instant…”Before he could finish speaking, a heavy kick landed on him. The person who kicked him seemed to be using all his strength, and so Old Nine flew into the wall about four or five meters away easily.Without giving him the chance to get up, the person kept a foot on his body, forcing him to the ground.Upon seeing his attacker, Old Nine immediately raised his head and shouted in confusion, “Assistant… Assistant Yates?”Even a
It had to be her!Thinking that, they rushed here without wasting a second.Thank God, Thank God! They were fortunate to have made it in time!At that moment, Sebastian hugged Sabrina tightly against his chest.“Sebastian…” Sabrina began to sob. She hardly cried, but just now, after leaping into his embrace, tears immediately began streaming down her cheeks. “Sebastian, I thought… I would never get to see you, or our daughter again. Sebastian… am I alive?”“Yes,” Sebastian answered solemnly.“Am I dreaming?” She asked again.“No.”“How… How did you find me? Did you see the SOS message I sent you?” He shook his head. Sebastian had not received any message of the sort. Instead, he even thought that her phone ran out of battery because of the numerous calls she had made to him last night.“If you didn’t receive my SOS, why did you come?” She asked curiously.“Intuition, because I was worried about you,” he explained.“Sebastian…” Sabrina stopped speaking and buried her head i
Sabrina’s husband?Coral was instantly stunned. “She…she doesn’t have a husband, she’s a slut. She has been fooling around with men for more than ten years, so surely there’s nobody out there who would want to be her husband… You... What's your name?”As Coral asked these questions, blood kept gushing out from the wound on her chest. By now, she was already numb to the pain. She didn’t even realize that she was basically on death’s door. Instead, she continued looking at Sebastian.Watching her were Kingston, who had his foot on Old Nine, and Sabrina who was still cuddled up in Sebastian’s arms.“Are you afraid?” Sebastian asked her softly. Sabrina quickly shook her head. “I’m your wife, so I won’t be afraid. Even if you hadn’t appeared, I wasn’t about to just let these animals off the hook. I told myself that I would find their leader and bite them to death!”Sabrina was telling the truth. Even when she was locked up in here, she did not feel fear at all. Nothing changed for he
Coral was speechless.She could only watch as her blood began to flow out. Even though she could feel that she was slowly losing consciousness, the regret in her heart did not dissipate at all.Why did she have to act so heavy handedly towards Sabrina?In the end, it even cost her her life.It didn’t take long for Coral to die from the blood loss. Ironically, she met her end at the dance hall that she herself had opened and designed for men at the top of various industries.Yet, this was reality for her.After that, the scene was instantly cleaned up.Holding Sabrina in his arms, Sebastian walked out of the doors. Behind him, Kingston tried to support Old Nine, whom he had crippled, as he limped like a chicken.Right as they reached the exit, Sebastian was greeted by a group of around fifteen men.“What are you doing here?! Where is Boss Scott? “ One of them asked immediately.The men had all been gathered by Coral here, who planned on using them to fight before killing off S
Granduncle Scott looked at Sabrina with a curious expression. “Sabbie, did you come here thinking that your mother was dead?”Sabrina nodded. “Lincoln told me six years ago that she was buried right here.”Granduncle Scott asked again, “Is Lincoln the man who came with your mother when she first married your father?”“Yes.”“He is not a good person at all!” Granduncle Scott’s face suddenly twisted as he exclaimed furiously.He continued, “That man claimed he was your mother’s cousin, but never came to see her again after she married your father.“After that, when your father passed away, he didn’t come to visit your family either.“When you left the village, your mother started working to pay for your university fees. At the time, she only made around five to six hundred a month, and could only keep a hundred for herself because Lincoln demanded the rest of it for your allowance!“Your mother has suffered so much!“Lincoln is clearly a person of status, yet, he never once help
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
