“Master Sebastian, what are you saying?” Selene thought there was something wrong with her ears.In South City, Sabrina took everything that was hers, and now on Star Island, Master Holden said Sabrina was his valued guest after only meeting her once?Something must be wrong with her ears.“I said, you look hideous now!” Holden looked at her in disgust.Selene: “…”“Hehe…” Aino looked at Selene cheekily. “Evil Lynn, he says you’re ugly!”Selene said, “Sabrina, you stupid convict! You have a death wish, don’t you! This is my fiancé! My fiancé! You’re a married woman! You’re a prisoner on this island! Ask your stupid daughter to shut up! Shut…”“Slap!” Before she could finish her sentence, Sabrina’s slap landed squarely on her cheek.Sabrina slapped her so hard that even her own palm hurt from the sting.She honestly felt Selene had lost so much weight recently. There was no flesh left on her cheeks, nothing left on her face except her sharp, protruding cheekbones.Selene’s entire famil
In a moment’s time, Jade could not control herself and kept laughing until she had no strength left to retaliate. All she could do was dodge. Grasping this opportunity, Sabrina pushed her to the ground with all her might.Jade fell painfully onto the ground in a heap.“Ouch, my teeth…” Loosened by the impact, her two front teeth dangled dangerously from her gums.Sabrina stepped viciously on her cheek. “You damned old woman! Since I’m dying here today, I’ll kill you right now!”Before she finished her sentence, she raised her foot and slammed it harshly onto Jade’s face again.“Ouch, ouch, it hurts! I’m going to die…” Jade moaned in pain.Beside the door, Lincoln watched on, angry, worried and anxious.At this moment, he wished he could beat Sabrina to death.But he was a man. If he rushed up there and viciously pummeled a woman and child to their deaths… It was not that he could not do it, but because Holden was right beside him, he had to consider his reputation.Beads of anxious swe
Sabrina said, “Mr. Payne, I don’t know what trick you’re hiding up your sleeve, nor do I care enough to venture a guess about what you’re hiding. Can you just tell us? Let the two of us know why we’ll be dying today.”Holden looked at Sabrina. Then, he looked at the little girl in his arms.The little girl’s eyes sparkled with tears, but her words still held an adult-like arrogance. “Mr. Payne! Put me down!”Holden: “…”Coughing slightly, he then said, “You scared the child.”Sabrina barked out a cold laugh. “I don’t need you to worry about that.”With that, she moved to take Aino out of his arms.The little girl immediately hurled herself into her mother’s waiting arms.Just like that, Holden held onto Aino’s legs while Sabrina had her hands around both of Aino’s arms.Seeing that Holden refused to let her go, Aino turned around, bent down, and bit Holden harshly on the arm.“Ouch…” Sharp pain shot up his arm and he immediately let go of Aino.“You… You little rascal. You’re so young
Besides, once he was addicted to that stuff, his body would be destroyed within months!Now, Jade was anxious to get rid of that man. She had a plan. She would order the man to get rid of Sabrina, then give him a big sum of money.If he successfully got rid of Sabrina, Sebastian would definitely come after him for revenge.By then, she would have successfully hit two birds with one stone.But she could not let Lincoln find out about her plan. Otherwise, he might even break her legs off. The three of them sat in the living room, each nursing their own thoughts and plans when Holden’s servant came to chase them out.“I’m sorry, Mr. and Mrs. Lynn, Miss Lynn, please leave!” the servant said without an ounce of respect.The three of them were chased out of the living room, but right at that moment, Sabrina, Aino, and Holden were still in the courtyard.Aino was still stomping her foot on Holden’s feet. His luxurious custom-made shoes that were worth more than 100,000 dollars were trodden u
This was the place where she, Aino, and Sebastian climbed out of their car three hours ago.“Mommy, we…” Aino recognized the area immediately too.But, just as Aino was about to say something, Sabrina covered her mouth with her palm. “Don’t talk, sweetie.”She was worried the kid would accidentally betray her father again.Beside them, Holden saw Sabrina’s reaction and could not help sneering, “What do you want to stop your daughter from doing? You don’t want me to know that your husband got down from his car right at this spot too? Sabrina, is there anything that happens on this Island that I, Holden Payne, don’t know about?”Hearing his words, Sabrina’s heart sunk deep into the pit of her stomach.She suppressed her despair and asked, “Can you tell me where my husband is right now and whether he’s dead or alive?”Holden said, “If I told you, what would you do?”Sabrina said straightforwardly, without any intention to lie, “If he’s dead, my daughter and I won’t live alone in this worl
However, there was a hint of matured beauty hidden within her cool and calm demeanor.It caused her to somehow have a spicy, experienced vibe around her.The kind of spiciness that attracted people in.Then the crowd looked at the little girl beside her.The little girl was wearing a fiery-red sweater with long, bat-like sleeves. On her lower half, she wore a pair of harem jeans printed with cartoons. Her street-style clothes made her look like a foreigner. The little girl was holding a big teddy bear that was half her size in her hands. The big teddy bear was originally very cute, but upon closer inspection, the few staff members were shocked!Oh my God!Where were the bear’s eyes?Were all children’s toys designed so oddly now?Did they like teddy bears without eyes?Then they looked at the little girl’s face. Her cheeks were round and puffy, and her eyes were bright with tears. She did not look very happy, as her lips were pursed and her eyes rolled around in their sockets as she st
What was written on the menu was not the list of dishes, but a line of words.“Sabrina, don’t be afraid. Stay with Aino in Holden Payne’s East Hall. If anything happens, there will be people to protect you. Try to stay happy, and keep Aino happy too.”Sabrina was speechless. “…”She raised her head and looked at the waiter, but he had already left.Sabrina then looked at Aino.Aino was confused. “What’s wrong, Mommy?”“Listen to me. We’ll have fun and eat as much as we want, just be happy, okay, baby?” Sabrina and Aino exchanged glances.Aino was a bright kid.She immediately understood her mother’s hidden meaning.The kid whose eyes had been shining with tears since the moment they entered the hotel suddenly smiled.The little girl had wandered around from city to city with her mother for five or six years. She was well-trained in studying human behavior, and with a glance from her mother, Aino could tell that her father was fine. He was safe. “Mommy, I understand!” Aino nodded. A
Aino continued, “Baddie. I love it. Baddie, can I name my teddy bear Baddie too? It is okay if the two of you share the same name, Baddie?”Holden was speechless. “…”He felt as if he had fallen into a trap. He had been duped and hoodwinked.“Uhm…” Holden asked Aino with a stutter. “Little… Little princess…”“Call me Cutie Pie!” Aino said with a high and mighty tone. “There’s already a little princess in your household, that Minerva girl! She’s so ugly. When you say the words ‘little princess’ I’m reminded of an ugly girl like her, so I don’t want to be called Little Princess. Just call me Cutie Pie.”“Uhm… Cutie Pie, you… I… I share the same name as your teddy bear, but look… Your teddy bear is so ugly. It doesn’t have any eyes, so how can someone as handsome as me share the same name as an eye-less teddy bear. That’s too…”“Hmph!” Aino burst into tears again. “This is my favorite teddy bear. I bring it with me everywhere I go. You can’t say it’s ugly! You can’t!”With that, Aino jump
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
