Sebastian did not even look at Ryan. However, that only made Ryan all the more fearful, to the point where he started to break out in cold sweat.Why was he back here again?Uncle Sebastian!Hades!‘What…You should not fool people like this. Weren’t you leaving already? Why are you back here again? Are you… Are you really that inseparable from your wife?’Despite his horrified expression, Ryan managed to force a smile and greeted him, “Uncle Sebastian?”“You are just like Selene,” Sebastian remarked calmly.Ryan quickly replied, “What… What did you say? The Selene that left here so shamelessly just now, with the filthy old shoes hung around her neck? Uncle Sebastian, how can you compare me to her?”He did not want to live anymore. “Uncle Sebastian, I… I am not here to see… to see Aunt Sabrina,” Ryan tried to explain, but his nervousness gave his true intentions away.“I am not here to see her either,” Sebastian said casually. It really hadn’t been part of his plan to catch

There was an old saying that went like this: We want what we can’t have.When this woman, Ruth, had acted high and mighty in the past, she made people feel disgusted just by looking at her. Yet, since she wasn’t all that qualified either, most people didn’t just look down on her, but had resented her as well. Especially her subordinates, who were infuriated by her arrogant behaviour, but did not dare to speak up. On the other hand, the truly wealthy young men of South City, like Ryan and Marcus, would not even let this unrefined woman into the corner of their eyes. To them, she wasn’t even worthy of being compared to a servant.However, things were different at this moment.Ruth behaved cautiously, and endured everything without saying a word. Unlike her past self, she humbly accepted her own inferiority.In fact, that silent but unyielding patience of hers was somewhat similar to how Sabrina had acted when she was being ostracized.The only difference being that Sabrina had n

Madeline and Lena felt extremely embarrassed but they had nowhere to hide. All the other employees who were sitting next to them glared at the two women with disdain.Sabrina, however, had a calm expression on her face. Back at the office, she hadn’t smelled Madeline’s intensely strong perfume, which caught her by surprise now. Since her nose was easily irritable, she could not stand the scent of it at all. “Mrs Ford, won’t you…just give us a chance to turn over a new leaf?” Madeline sounded aggrieved. “I know we have made mistakes in the past, but didn’t we make up for them? I even brought you the Green Mountain coffee as a way to extend my apology, and yet you won’t even bat an eye at us?”The more Madeline got closer to Sabrina, the more she tried to move away.When she saw this, Madeline started to look even more aggrieved. “Do you… Do you really hate me that much? You could even forgive Ruth, who once tried to hit you with the sole of her shoes. You’re even friends with h

“Scared?” Sebastian asked.Sabrina was at an utter loss for words. ‘Nonsense!‘You were always a temperamental man. One minute you’ll warm up to someone, before sending them to be cremated into ashes in the other.‘It would only be strange if a woman was not afraid to fall in love with a man like you.’However, Sabrina refused to give in just like that!Holding back the fear she felt towards him in her heart, Sabrina began to argue back, “You’re so temperamental, so how can I possibly guess what you’re thinking? It was you who decided to make our relationship public and used the Ford Group’s official social media page to announce that I am the director’s wife. Let me ask you then, as the wife, shouldn’t I at least have the right to ask where we’re going?”“Mmm. Just a few days of working in a comfortable workplace seems to have trained your tongue well,” remarked Sebastian cooly.He managed to leave Sabrina speechless without even looking at her.Not knowing how to continue

Seeing how Sebastian was stunned, the two designers who had served Sabrina immediately tried to explain. “I’m sorry, Mr Ford. We… We actually… Actually, we selected the most extravagant dress that you had in mind for Madam, but she seemed to prefer this one. This is the lowest priced one out of all the dresses here.“It’s considered to be no-frills and does not come with any accessories at all.“However, I must say, Madam really does have a very good eye. Even though it's a lowly priced dress with a simple style, it still looks extremely good on Madam.”The first half of the designer’s words were an apology to Sebastian. However, he had begun genuinely complimenting her during the second half of his explanation.Sabrina really did have a really good figure, which made her look good in everything. Even though the designer had picked out the most luxurious styles and brooches in the store for her earlier, Sabrina said no to all of them. After trying them on, she felt they were
