Chapter 884
Was she dreaming again? Ever since she had gotten rid of her child weeks ago, she had been haunted by dreams filled with children. The voice that was knocking on her door and shouting for her to open it sounded innocent and young like a small child. Whose child was it?Jane sat up abruptly and grabbed a robe from her closet hurriedly before running over to open the door. She wanted to know who the child was. For a moment, she was even wondering if she was still dreaming.Upon opening the door, she saw a small figure dressed in a fiery red dress, who was looking up at her with a grin. "You look so pretty, auntie, just like my Mommy. My Mommy is probably slightly prettier, by a little bit, a little bit only."The small child batted her eyelashes cheerfully at Jane. Hidden within her eyes was the appreciation of the adult woman before her eyes, but not outshining the child's unconcealable protectiveness towards her own mother, which triggered overwhelming emotions in Jane's heart once aga
Chapter 885
How could such a small child be so witty? She was reminded of what Alex had always told her. He often said, "Sebastian has now become such a slave to his daughter! The man he used to be never blinked twice at killing others, he never smiled or even felt the slightest affection towards another! Now, look at him! He rushes home everyday after work to play with that little kid."Jane could understand. Who wouldn't melt when they have such a sweet child at home?"Let's go, auntie. My Mommy is waiting downstairs."Jane went to wash up and put on some make-up, and then went down to the living room holding Aino's hand. Aino had only heard that her mother was going to invite another auntie to shop with them. She loved nothing more than to make new friends. She had plenty of friends in her kindergarten, and a friend of her mother was a friend of hers. Just like that, the little child in a red dress led Jane downstairs.Jane used to dress in a more mature and elegant style whenever she was with
Chapter 886
To be honest, the woman in front of him was very different from how she used to be. Before this, her style of dressing used to be mature yet slightly sexy, Alex’s favorite. But today, she was dressed in lively, bright colors, which was eye-catching, and yet not losing her hint of maturity and sexiness. There was an extra layer of energy and vitality. She kept herself in good shape. Dressed like this, she didn’t look like a woman who was already in her thirties. Instead, she looked like a pretty and delicate young lady.Alex felt a hug at his heartstrings. With a smile on his face, he said warmly, “You look beautiful in anything.”Jane smiled. “Alex, Sabrina, and I are going shopping now.”Alex only nodded. She rarely left the house. Back home in Kidon City, countless rich ladies wanted to go shopping and have afternoon tea with her, but she always refused, hardly venturing outside. She was only willing to go when he had a function to attend and would bring her along. Hence, Alex was s

“Oh…” Jane looked at Sabrina. “Sabrina, is it okay if I meet your friends?”“Why not? One of them is the fiancé of one of the Poole brothers, you might meet each other often in the future. Her name is Ruth Mann. The other is my colleague, Yvonne. I’m sure you’ll like her when you meet her.”Sabrina was right. The moment Jane met Yvonne, who was like a lively human firecracker, she liked her immediately. Ruth, who was standing beside Yvonne, seemed more shy and reserved.Jane asked Sabrina softly, “Didn’t you say she’s quite fierce too?”“Oh, her!” Sabrina rolled her eyes at Ruth. “She’s an introvert! She’ll only show you how fierce she is after she grows close to you. She seems silly and naïve to those who don’t know her.”Jane laughed.“Uhm…” Ruth started awkwardly. “When I came here Ryan told me you’re his…Aunt, he asked me to call you Aunt too. Hello, Aunt Jane.”“You’re Ruth, right?” Jane asked.“Aunt Jane.”“How come you’re so obedient?” Jane couldn’t help but worry for her. Jane
Chapter 888
The woman was Autumn Poole. There was a reason why Autumn married into the Smith family and moved from Kidon City to South City. The Poole family was one of the wealthiest families in Kidon City. Of course Autumn wouldn’t fall for someone like Zach Smith, but when she was in her twenties, she had fallen in love with a foreigner. But she never expected he would turn out to be a spy. He had approached her because he wanted to gain some information about the Poole family. In the end, his cover was busted, but by that time, Autumn was already five or six months pregnant. Luckily, her family was wealthy and influential so they managed to successfully hide this piece of bad publicity from the public and had secretly gotten rid of the baby.It was an African child, with skin dark as coal from head to toe. The shape of its body had already been formed, and yet it had no right to be born into the world. Even though Axel Poole buried this incident, the upper-echelons of their circle still found

The even more unkempt one was Ruth Mann! She was nothing but a shrewd, uncultured, unkempt woman, with no family background to boast about! And yet she married the second son of the Poole family, Ryan Poole! How could she! And that Jane Sheen! Back then, she was nothing but a beggar! A woman who was sold like a piece of product! And yet she was fortunate enough to become Alex’s girlfriend! A homeless woman, someone who almost starved to death despite begging for food, was now living a better life than her, the eldest daughter of the Poole family!Autumn looked at the four of them laughing and chatting together merrily. The longer she looked, the more furious she got. All four of them were nothing but lowly b*tches. Sabrina was an ex-convict, for heaven’s sake! Wandering from city to city for years! Jane’s situation was no better than being in prison either. Even though the other two were slightly better, they were still just common folks. Birds of the same feathers flock together indee

Sabrina thought it might be from Nigel and as expected, it was Nigel. There was a hint of sorrow in his gentle voice. “Sabrina, it’s me, Nigel.”“I know it’s you!” Sabrina was still furious.“Are you angry at me, Sabrina?” Nigel asked.“Master Connor, actually I shouldn’t be saying this, because I’m the reason you went to Star Island, but do you know you’re not helping me at all?” The longer she talked, the more her fury grew.Seated beside her, Aino had her arms around her mother’s bag, looking after it. She raised her head to look at Sabrina. “Mommy, who are you arguing with? Did anyone bully you? If they did, tell me, I’ll go and beat her up for sure!”Even though they had returned to Sebastian’s side for more than six months, Aino still rushed to defend her mother at the sign of any threat. The little girl loved her mother deeply. At the sight of this, even Jane felt sorry for the child. She hugged Aino. “Sabbie, lower your volume. No matter what happens, take it slow, don’t get ma

Aino was so happy that her eyes sparkled. “Yes! Of course, I’m so happy!”“Then, we’ll wait for Uncle Zayn patiently. When his leg is better, he’ll come home, okay?” Sabrina comforted Aino patiently.Aino nodded obediently.Actually, Aino was not the only one who missed Zayn.Sabrina missed him too.They were family and were relying exclusively on each other for six years, so how could she not miss him?“My brother, he…did he say…that he missed me?” Sabrina asked, a lump in her throat.On his end, Nigel replied, “Your brother said…even though initially he was the one who guided you two as the both of you fled from South City, throughout the years that you spent in exile, most of the time you were the one taking care of him. He broke his leg when you just gave birth to Aino. Back then, you had to take care of both him and Aino at the same time. To buy him some nutritious food, you even sold your blood for money. Aino was a mere baby at that time, but still you went to work at a construc
