Sabrina was slightly appalled when she saw Ryan at that moment. The fact that she had been fired after only working here for two days was mainly because of him. Had Ryan not behaved so eagerly around her, she would not have to face the overwhelming jealousy from every female colleague from the office, so much so that Ruth decided to get her in trouble. Ryan was the sole reason as to why she had faced obstacles, one after another. He was no different from Nigel six years ago, just a playboy that was tired of all the beautiful women surrounding him and decided that he wanted to try something new with someone dull and nerdy for a change. But Sabrina had grown out of her foolishness from six years ago. She would not allow herself to be affected by a man like Ryan any longer, which explained her reluctance to show any interest when Ryan was speaking directly to her.Sabrina's expression remained cold in front of Ryan, so much so the Design Director had to remind her by saying, "Sabrina, it'

"What's wrong?" Sabrina was confused as to why Yvonne looked shocked by what she said."Nothing, Sabrina." Yvonne shook her head with a grin. "You were the only one who stood up against Ruth Poole, and the first one to ever reject Master Ryan. It's actually the first time Master Ryan had invited someone in the office for dinner, you know? Who would have thought that he would get rejected? Sabrina, you seem like such a nice girl, I didn't think you had it in you."Yvonne had known since the very first moment she met Sabrina that they would become close friends. She admired Sabrina's innocence and how she kept to herself without speaking too much.Coincidentally, Sabrina happened to share the same feelings towards Yvonne. She did not have any friends and ever since the day she was released from prison six years ago, she had been caught in a world of dramas and backstabbing. She had never met anyone that would open up to her like Yvonne did, and so she treasured their friendship and treat

Silence fell upon the office as everyone tried to process what Sabrina had just said.It was only a few moments after that Linda finally snapped out of her dazed state. "What...what are you saying?"Sabrina was never skilled in communication and opted to explain in a matter-of-fact tone. "I am staying here to work so you are changing stations with me. I am taking over your position and you are going to be my assistant. All blueprints you produce from this point onwards will have to go through me before being put into practice."Linda seemed dazed for a split second, before she snapped. "Sabrina Scott! Do you think that you are suddenly the better person for handling the incident for me? Please, be that as it may, you have also scammed your way into taking ten thousand dollars from me! What else do you want? You want to be on top? No freaking way! Everyone, you heard it, not only did this woman force me into paying her ten thousand dollars, she is now asking for me to gather up my thing

Ryan stood frozen in shock as different emotions ran across his mind. He stuttered as he struggled to process the information along with the disbelief. "You...but you look so young! Are you saying you are married?""Um, excuse me, could you move out of the way?" Sabrina could sense the chilling glare coming from inside the black limo as though the man was standing right before her.Ryan persistently stood before her. "Sabrina, is your husband treating you the way you deserve to be treated? You must have been tricked into this marriage, aren't you? Why else would you get married at such an early age?""I'm sorry, Master Ryan, but please move." And with that, Sabrina shoved him aside before striding off."Sabrina!" Ryan shouted from behind her, "even if you really are married, you still have the freedom to make friends as you please!"If it wasn't that Sebastian was waiting for her, Sabrina would have stopped to ask Ryan what was it about her that attracted him? Was it that she was not t

Sabrina soon realized she had underestimated how fast his train of thoughts truly was when she was carried into the bedroom. They had mentioned Ryle Poole in the car after work and that swiftly turned into a discussion of whether she had a rest day over the weekend; they were just talking about exchanging contact and the man's thought seemed to have traced back to the matter with Ryan as soon as he slammed the bedroom door behind him."Is your man better than Ryan Poole?" he asked."...I don't know." Sabrina barely even knew Ryan in person, how was she to judge whether he was better?"You don't know?" he smirked and continued, "Well, then you will have to be punished!""You...you are better than him.""And who am I?" he asked relentlessly."My...my husband is better than Ryle Poole...a hundred times better," she caved and muttered.The last thought that filled Sabrina right before she fell asleep that night was how vengeful Sebastian was. The only reason he did not mention anything whe
