“I will definitely destroy him!”With that, Sabrina immediately hung up.She knew that she would go crazy if she had continued the phone call with Selene.It wouldn’t be a good look in front of so many people here.Instead, Sabrina decided to exact her revenge once she got back to South City. She vowed that she would destroy the Lynn family no matter what, even if it meant she had to gather troops herself.Nevertheless, at that moment, Sabrina wasn’t aware that Selene and her family had already fled to Star Island.The one who had helped them escape behind the scenes was Old Master Shaw.After she ended the call, Sabrina turned to look at everyone there apologetically and said, “I’m sorry, that was an embarrassing sight.”“No, Mrs Ford, you've already shown us your generosity.”“The fact that you gave away a million to someone who helped you before is enough to show how magnanimous you are.”Those villagers were sly manipulators who were used to flattering others.However, w
When he saw how Sabrina was holding on to the box with a look of despair on her face, Sebastian could not bear to say anything else to her.Instead, he hugged Sabrina tightly and whispered to her in a low voice, “You have so many people with you now. There’s me, Aino, Zayn, and your two good friends, so you must remain strong.”Hearing this, Sabrina pursed her lips and smiled.Though she sank even deeper into Sebastian’s embrace, her tone was much calmer now. “Sebastian, I have… suffered and been through a lot. As a result, I can keep my cool regardless of the circumstances.“I can handle it, so you don’t have to try and console me, or protect me from anything. I can deal with even the cruelest of things.“Just tell me.”Subconsciously, Sabrina’s mind drifted to the worst possible scenario.Lincoln had confined her mother!Right when Sabrina herself was in South City!The same city!Yet, she did not know.The guilt made her extremely restless, but to stop Sebastian from wor
When the old woman had first encountered Kingston, she instantly jumped in fright.However, after listening to his explanation and the purpose of his investigation, the old woman began to calm down. As Kingston spoke of Sabrina’s mother, she could not help but sympathise and shed a tear for her. “That’s a good woman. She might have looked uncultured and lacked my madam’s extravagance, but I could tell that the woman was incredibly well mannered. She would act very elegantly, just like an heiress of a rich and powerful family, and was very kind to me as well.“At my age, I couldn't bear to do something so hurtful.“Realising that saving a life was much more meaningful than obtaining all the riches in the world, I decided to risk my job to help that woman escape.”“However, I never contacted her after that. Being the old lady she was, she naturally did not know how to work her way around a mobile phone, while I couldn’t afford one myself. As such, we never had any way to communicat
Sebastian quickly glanced at Sabrina.Meanwhile, Sabrina, who was still wallowing in sadness, didn’t seem to notice his gaze. She only saw Sebastian sitting up right suddenly and so asked, “What is it Sebastian? What’s that about a homeless woman?”Sebastian shook his head, saying, “It’s nothing.” He then dismissed the guard and hung up the call.After that, he held onto Sabrina tightly.Being enveloped in Sebastian’s embrace once again, Sabrina momentarily decided not to ask about anything else, simply burying her face into his arms.In the meantime, she didn’t notice that Sebastian was busy exchanging a look with his driver.Kingston had been Sebastian’s personal bodyguard for over ten years.As such, regardless of whatever it was that the young master wanted or needed, he could tell from a single look.At that moment, Kingston understood that the young master was ordering him to send someone immediately to look into that vagabond.When they heard the security guard’s call,
Sabrina nodded.Sabrina slept very well in the hotel that afternoon.It was already nighttime when she woke up.When she opened her eyes, she did not see her husband or daughter.Sabrina thought that Aino must have dragged Sebastian downstairs to walk around, possibly to buy something.At that moment, her phone rang again. Sabrina trembled. The call earlier in the day was from Selene. Would it be Selene’s call again?If it were, Sabrina would not be able to keep her calm.Hence, she decided not to answer.Sabrina ignored her ringing phone and did not answer it.In the end, not a minute later, the phone rang again.She took the phone and answered it with a conflicted look on her face, “Hello!”“What is it, Sabrina?” On the other end was Yvonne’s gentle and concerned voice.“Yvonne, it’s you! Why did you suddenly think about calling me at this time?” Hearing Yvonne’s voice, Sabrina was in a much better mood. She was very pleasantly surprised.“You weren’t in the company the
It was Sabrina who bumped into the person, and she even stepped on that woman’s foot.Hence, she frantically apologized, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry! Does your foot hurt after I stepped on it?”The woman disdainfully measured Sabrina, and her tone sounded like she was talking down to an animal, “You have your pajamas on, and your hair is so unkempt. Where did you come from?! Did you come to sell your body? Someone like that stepping on my foot? Do you have any diseases or illnesses? Ah… How disgusting, go away, go away, go away!”The woman pinched her nose before retreating a few steps, continuing to berate Sabrina, “Woman, distance yourself from me! You were so smelly when you talked to me! Get away from me! I’m so disgusted!”Sabrina was speechless.She looked up and looked at the woman properly.The woman seemed to be around thirty. She had chestnut-coloured hair, and her hair was properly taken care of. However, her skin was a little dark, and it was possibly because of the weather
She suddenly felt that the woman looked a little familiar.However, she could not remember who that woman was at all.She would have met that woman when she was younger, but now they have grown up and changed.“Who on earth are you?” Sabrina asked calmly.“Mary Smith!” The woman smiled coldly, “You don’t even remember me. You really are an ungrateful person!”Mary Smith?She kept crossing paths with her enemies.Yes, the woman in front of her was Mary.When she was small, Mary’s family stayed in the county. Her parents were both officials. Mary was at the peak of nobility within the company in terms of status.Meanwhile, Sabrina was the most unremarkable commoner in the county.She was worth even less than a commoner.It was because Sabrina’s family was extremely poor when she was younger.Sabrina stayed in the county village and did not have any interactions with Mary.However, when Sabrina was twelve, the best school in the county held exchange sessions for the students
The twelve-year-old girl’s face swelled after being hit, and a glaring imprint of five fingers could be seen.Sabrina was so scared she did not even dare to cry.She only looked at Mary’s parents with shock and horror.She did not want to come to a rich person’s house.She needed to take care of her father after school every day and carry water for her mother on top of all her homework.However, that family chose her. If she did not attend that experiential activity, she would not even be able to hand in her homework. On top of that, her father would not obtain the thirty bucks that were handed out to the poor for medical expenses every month.Sabrina came under her mother’s advice.She did not think that the family would be so fierce, but Sabrina did not dare to tell her parents out of worry that she would hurt them.After Mary’s mother slapped her, she was consoled, “Little girl, I’m doing this for your own good. You’re a little girl from the countryside. You don’t understand
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
