Selene fell into Sebastian’s embrace, crying as she looked up at him. “Young Master... Boohoo…”Sabrina was speechless.Sebastian’s gaze was cold and murderous as he looked at Sabrina.Behind Sebastian stood the Ford family’s old master and old mistress, and behind them were several more people. Sabrina did not know who the others were, but there was one person that Sabrina recognized.That was Nigel.“Mr… Mr Ford.” Sabrina struggled to find her words. “It’s… it’s her, Se… Selene was the one who invited me here. I thought… I thought that she had wanted to do something to Aunt Grace…”“I was the one who asked her to meet me here.” Sebastian’s voice was calm, but there was clearly a cold undertone.The reason Selene had appeared in front of the hospital really was because Sebastian had asked her over.The day before, Old Master Ford had formally requested for him to pick a girl from a few notable families as a bride, but Sebastian had not agreed.Yet he knew as well that the ma
Sabrina was speechless.She did not know how to explain this to Sebastian. She realized that the situation had been set up as a trap by the Lynn family, and she had jumped right in.She had no arguments to make.Furthermore, even if she were to explain, Sebastian would not believe her.Sabrina was stunned silent, unable to say a word.“If anything happens to Selene or the Lynn family from today on, I won’t mind having another life on my hands. I will make sure you die a painful death.” Sebastian’s tone was metallic and unemotional as he spoke to Sabrina. He left after that, supporting Selene.Sabrina’s thoughts were in a complete mess.She knew that those words were not empty.She had seen for herself how he handled his enemies. He was someone who could be extremely gentle, but he could also be as cruel as hell.He would do what he said, and would never soften his heart.Sabrina looked over at Sebastian. He was holding up Selene as he walked toward Henry. Her head resting a
Starting to feel a sense of inferiority, Selene withdrew into Sebastian’s embrace. Sebastian spoke up. “Grandpa, Selene is already pregnant. You can stop that. If you continue shouting, you’ll scare your great grandchild in Selene’s belly.”Henry was speechless.“I got her to meet you here so you can know and be prepared. The woman I want to marry in this life is her, Selene Lynn!“After my mother passes away, I will bring her to the Ford Residence to formally meet you. From now on, we won’t have to discuss marital matters anymore.” Sebastian’s words left no room for debate.It was just a statement.A simple one.Without waiting for Old Master Ford’s reply, Sebastian carried Selene and left.Selene asked nervously, “Young Master Sebastian, I… was I very rude?”“No.” Sebastian replied simply.“Young Master…”“Call me Sebastian.” “Young… Sebastian… I-I don’t dare to.”“I am your man!”As she hid in his embrace, Selene’s heart grew elated. She took a sweet and charming ton
Sabrina looked uncertain and speechless.The vibrant, innocent smile that was full of life that she had been wearing for the past few days was lost. She had once again reverted to her cold, alienated expression.That look, in Nigel’s eyes, was extremely pitiful.Yet he enjoyed seeing this pitiful and determined look. It was more fun this way.“I was wondering why you’ve been so happy, looking like a flower in bloom. It seems that my cousin was treating you well. However, you got cocky too early. Daring to face his actual woman simply because he treated you well for two days?“You really have some fat guts!“I really couldn’t tell. You’ve always had that cold and bitter look, as if you didn’t care about anything, but I guess when you do something, you do it big?“You had my cousin before you, and Marcus Shaw behind.“Then you have me.“Any one among the three of us would have been enough to cause ripples in South City.“Your eyes really are sharp!”Sabrina was speechless.Ni
Old Madam Ford consoled Grace as well. “Daughter-in-law, Sean is overseas right now. Once he finishes up his business, he will come back and marry you. After marriage, you will really be a part of our family. You… Could you call me mother?”Grace looked at Old Madam Ford, covered in tears. “Mom…”“Ah, you are a good daughter-in-law. Take good care of yourself. You will get better... You will definitely get better.” The old lady pulled Grace into her embrace.Listening from outside, Sabrina peeked in, feeling melancholic as she watched the scene.Aunt Grace’s life had been tough. She had been tricked when she was young, ending up with Sean Ford. As they had been overseas, she never knew that Sean Ford already had a wife and three kids. By the time she found out, Grace was already nine months pregnant, and would give birth in half a month.After she gave birth, Sean treated the two of them very well.Yet the good times only lasted until the child was five. That was when Sean’s orig
The man laughed coldly. “Did you know I’d be waiting?”Sabrina was speechless.She had not had any such thoughts.She had just been nervous, not knowing how he would deal with her. There was no point running away. She had seen firsthand a few days ago how this man dealt with his enemies. No matter where she fled to, she knew that after a while, Sebastian would find her.Unless she had a meticulous plan.If she could not run, she might as well face him.At the very least, Aunt Grace still needed her.She had simply wanted to steady herself before talking.That was what Sabrina had been thinking.Seeing her speechless, Sebastian looked on at her, his eyes containing a malicious glint. “You pretended to be honest, then pretended to be pitiful, all to earn my trust before you dealt with Selene? Your acting skills are really top notch, even Selene can’t compete with you. Her envy toward you is all surface level, just the whims of a little girl. Yet you, on the other hand, have such
“That is all.“If you think that my newfound arrogance from how you’ve treated me over the past two days was what caused me to push Selene today, then I won’t make that mistake again.”After she had spoken, Sabrina pushed Sebastian aside before entering her room. She started packing her belongings without delay.She had very little luggage, her possessions essentially only comprising the shoes that she already had on. She packed up her few clothes as well as some simple showering products. They were all stuffed into a ripped up bag.With her bag slung around her shoulder, Sabrina did not spare Sebastian a glance, nor did she utter any farewells before disappearing into the night.Sebastian was left standing at the window, looking down at the disappearing silhouette downstairs.She had left decisively, without hesitation.He suddenly noticed that the two of them were quite similar.They were both capable of being very gentle, yet when it came time to sever all relationships, the
“Haven’t you gotten what you wanted? Why are you here?” Sabrina was exasperated.“Sabrina, I thought you were so much better than this. You were telling me how much Young Master Sebastian loved and cared for you, and that you could snatch away my place as his fiance, but it turns out that you’re actually just a laborer here? If I’m not mistaken, you were also working here twenty odd days ago?”Twenty odd days ago. That was when she had been kidnapped by Selene.Sabrina looked calmly at the arrogant woman in front of her, suppressing her desire to grab her neck and choke her to death.She really despised the Lynn family.She had never understood why her mother had left her with the Lynn family when she was twelve. What relationship had her parents have with them? Sabrina knew that her family had been poor, but even if she was so poor she had to beg, Sabrina still wouldn’t have turned to rely on anyone else.Throughout the entire eight years, she had never gotten even a bit of love
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
