"What are you doing here?" Sebastian asked.When she saw Selene struggling to come up with an answer, Sabrina quickly held Sebastian’s arm and looked at her with a smile."Ms. Lynn, are you here for revenge?" Sabrina asked calmly."Sabrina, stop accusing me of things I didn’t do""Who are you to refer to me by my first name?" she sneered.Taking advantage of Selene's silence, she rolled her eyes and went on, "I might just be an ordinary employee here, but I know for a fact that there are surveillance cameras installed throughout the corridors. I'm sure you’ve managed to expose yourself by blabbering about what you came here for on your way from the front desk to where you are standing right now. Shall we take a look at the footage?""You...!""Let me guess, you wish to beat me to death, until my face is covered in bumps and blood? Selene Lynn, what have I ever done to you to deserve that? And even if I did, you still don’t have the right to hit me. What makes you think you can walk all

Nevertheless, it was too late for regrets now. After having been so reckless, Selene had no choice but to fight her way out of this."Sabrina, I think there must be some misunderstanding here, I’ve never had the intention to steal anything from you..." she smiled awkwardly."No!" Sabrina interrupted her fiercely. "There’s no misunderstanding at all. You have been taking everything from me ever since we were children.“I would even consider myself lucky on the days when I managed to salvage your leftovers. “What I know is that you took away what was mine, and even tried stealing the man who belongs with me. “It's not exactly news that you often refer to my husband as your fiancé. In fact, I’m sure that every single person in South City knows that you spread rumors about being engaged to Sebastian. I'm not just talking about blabbering to a friend or two. No, you’ve told countless people that you’re his fiancé."Though Sabrina’s harsh words were clearly intended to entrap and rebuke Se

The Vice-Director quickly pulled a chair towards Sebastian and said politely, "Please take a seat, Master Sebastian."He finally got a grasp of the situation. Sebastian truly did embody the qualities described in the Ford Group's social media posts: powerful, ruthless, merciless and terrifying, but utterly under his wife's spell. The famed man with the highest authority in the entire Ford Group really did tiptoe around his wife. In addition to being afraid of displeasing his wife, it seems that Sebastian had also felt insecure at the prospect of losing her to some younger and better-looking men.Another thing that the Vice-Director realised was that Master Sebastian wasn’t here to monitor their work or to discuss the details of their collaboration at all. No, the man was simply here to see his wife because he missed her. More precisely, the almighty Director had decided to abandon all his pending work and contracts just to run over to his wife's workplace to check up on her.All th

However, Old Master Shaw didn’t know that Sebastian was standing right beside Sabrina at that moment. After all, the employee who had taken the photo of Selene and circulated it had felt too scared to include Sebastian in it. He was living proof of the fact that people constantly bullied the weak and feared the powerful. As Selene was pleading for mercy with the shoes hung around her neck, Sebastian sat quietly next to Sabrina and studied the drawings that she was reviewing. Sabrina tried to chase him away. “You…Why are you still here?”Sebastian calmly replied, “Do you think this thing is hanging those filthy old shoes around her neck because she is afraid of you?”To Sebastian, Selene wasn’t even worthy of a human name.She was simply “this thing”.When Selene heard how he had referred to her, she felt a throbbing pain in her heart. Nevertheless, she still knew that she was already incredibly fortunate as Sebastian had not taken her life yet. To keep it that way, Selene

Selene suddenly burst into tears. Like a lunatic, she kept wailing as she ran out of the architecture design firm. Unbeknownst to her, there was a car parked right outside. Marcus and Ryan were sitting inside, watching Selene. “Your cousin ran out crying with those filthy old shoes hanging around her neck, haha!” Ryan teased Marcus.“What, she’s your cousin!” Marcus had never once acknowledged Selene as his own relative after all.“She’s your cousin! Damn, if I had a cousin with such a hideous face that believes she’s some divine beauty, I’d surely die of disgust. Marcus, you shouldn’t make me feel repulsed like this,” Ryan said with a serious tone. Not paying any mind to his remarks, Marcus asked, “Say, Ryan! Did you have nothing better to do than to offend Sebastian?”Ryan replied with a smile, “Do you know why Uncle Sebastian left the Ford Group’s upper management meeting so abruptly yesterday, putting aside all the contracts he was supposed to sign? It was because he s
