Sabrina raised her head and found herself looking at Sebastian. Her expression slowly shifted, unsure why he had appeared. Thinking rationally about it, however, there was no reason he shouldn’t be, given that the entire cruise was filled with rich kids anyway.Sebastian’s suit was wrapped tightly around Sabrina as he pulled her into an embrace, glaring at everyone else with a hostile expression.The bustling cruise had suddenly turned silent.There was no one on that cruise ship who was unafraid of Sebastian.Had this happened a month ago, very few would have even heard of Sebastian, much less afraid of him. However, in just a month, Sebastian had done away with Sebastian's brothers, seizing the position of highest power in Ford Group. As if that alone had not been enough, the highlight of the situation was that despite the sudden change in ownership of an entire conglomerate, there had not been any sign of turmoil or disarray within the company.That had been enough to show off

Sabrina raised her head as she gazed at Sebastian, not understanding what he had meant.Yet she spoke, her tone so distant that it seemed to be numb. “Mr. Ford, what are you trying to say? My schemes, my plans against you, don’t you already know of them? Since you’ve already exposed me, what are you still asking me about?”“You seem to have forgotten what I’ve warned you about.” The man’s voice seemed less cruel than before.“I did not forget.” Sabrina lowered her head, showing a self-deprecating smile.Sebastian had warned her not to hook up with other men while she remained in a marital relationship with him. Yet even without his warning, who would she have hooked up with?Among all the men and women on the cruise, not one of them had looked at her as a human. Even Nigel, who treated her decently, had eyes that looked like he was toying with her.In their eyes, she was nothing but a pitiful joke.“I just wanted to make some money, that’s all. Unfortunately, as I was making tha

Sabrina raised her head to look at Sebastian, her face reddening.Finishing his toast, the man got up to leave, ignoring Sabrina.She was left speechless.It was Kingston, who had been standing by the side, who suddenly approached her and said in a low voice, “Miss Scott, you look much better when you’re embarrassed and confused.”With that, he followed his master, heading out of the diner.Sabrina gulped down her food before leaving as well. As she did not see Sebastian’s car outside the diner, she thought that Sebastian had left. She stood alone at the entrance of the diner, thinking quietly to herself.Not far away, Sebastian observed Sabrina from within the car.Standing alone like that, she looked like a leaf in the wind. Her expression seemed a little willful, but was more so unfamiliar.He also saw a loneliness and helplessness in the pitiful girl.“Go investigate whose child it is she has inside her,” he suddenly told Kingston.Kingston started, “Where… Where should I

Nigel’s strong arms supported her as he put her back on the ground. His sly smile remained on his face as he said, “Just because I had said that you wanted to seduce Shaw on the cruise and didn’t come to your rescue, you’ve started to hate me?”“I did not,” Sabrina said bluntly.She really didn’t.What relationship did she even have with Nigel?Why would she hate him? Sabrina was someone who analysed everything.“Country girl! Let me just say, you had money in your eyes that day. You were the one who allowed yourself to be toyed with by everyone. No one could’ve saved you. If I had, I’d have made myself the enemy of every rich kid in South City.”Nigel spoke directly in Sabrina’s face without a shred of compassion.“Other than my cousin Sebastian, no one could have saved you. Furthermore, it was only a game. As per your own agreement with Mindy, she would have given you that money in the end. You have no right to feel as if you’ve been wronged.”Sabrina maintained her composure

The man did not reply before getting up and leaving.Grace smiled. “That brat has always been a man of few words, Sabbie. Since the two of you are in a flash marriage, your feelings for each other may not have a firm foundation yet, but I think you’ll slowly come to realize his good points.”“I know, mother. I’ll go with Sebastian to buy some clothes now,” Sabrina said, returning a sweet smile.“Go ahead.”Sabrina trailed outside. The moment she had walked out the door, she heard Grace shouting from behind, “Sebastian, I know you’re standing outside. Come in, I have something to say to you.”Sebastian had indeed been standing outside. Hearing his mother call for him, he ordered Kingston, “Bring her over to the car first. I’ll head on over after this.”“Yes, Young Master Sebastian.”Sebastian turned around, entering the ward.“Mother…”“Stupid child!” Grace reached over to hit her son as she rebuked him. “You’ve been married to Sabbie for over a month. I can tell that you’ve be
