She was in desperate need of money at the moment. Nigel seemed to have seen right through her and said with a cavalier attitude, "What I had given you couldn't be over $3,000 USD. What's wrong? Were you afraid that I was trying to buy a night of your time with that? Relax! I'm not interested in you! I only thought that a country girl like you was too pathetic. Consider this as charity work. If you really couldn’t accept it as it is, you could pay me back in installments in the future every time you received your pay.""Thank you," Sabrina blushed with her hands on the money."Also! My time is far too precious. Stop wasting my time. The next time I say I'm going to give you a ride, you should get in the car immediately," Nigel said mischievously as he stared at the reflection of a blushing Sabrina from the rear-view mirror of his car."Okay," Sabrina nodded obediently and turned to look outside the window calmly without another word. However, she was trying to keep the butterflies sh

"I know, and I wouldn’t want to!" Sabrina answered calmly. She turned around without looking at him and went straight ahead back to the ward. She did not owe Sebastian anything. He might have lent her $50,000 USD but it could be repaid once their contract ended. Although he once saved her life from kidnappers, he did so only for his mother's sake. There was no need for her to act submissive in front of him, knowing that she was far from being in his debt. All she wanted was to be herself and offered whatever comfort she could to Aunt Grace during these last moments of her life.The two remained distant from one another but were aware that they still had to put on a show for Grace once they stepped into the room. Sebastian threw his arms around Sabrina at the door, and Sabrina leaned into it, looking more in love than ever.Grace looked at the two with delight as they stepped in and reminded her son, "Sebastian, the both of you need to work a little bit harder for a baby."Before

Meanwhile, Sabrina could not find peace within her at all. She knew that she was stuck in the middle of a whirlpool with danger lurking at every corner. The members of the Lynn Family would do everything in their power to make sure she suffered. She was aware that Nigel considered his kindness to her as mere charity. She ultimately knew that the reason Sebastian kept her around despite finding out about her pregnancy was simply for his mother's sake. She was another lowly woman who had no one to depend on in this society. She could only remind herself to be cautious, over and over again. She went straight into her bedroom as soon as she entered Sebastian's house and refused to step out, not even for food, when in truth, she was starving.She waited until eleven at night before finally coming out with a basin. She assumed Sebastian and Selene would not be in the living room and headed towards the bathroom to get some hot water for a bath, and to her surprise, she found Sebastian si

If the camera was not lost, she no longer needed the money she borrowed from Nigel."So...I didn't have to pay?" Sabrina asked cheerfully."Not even the rental fee," said Master Tong."Thank, thank you, thank you so much. I...I would get going then?" Sabrina reconfirmed in relief."Yes, of course, Miss Scott."Sabrina sighed a long breath of relief and walked out of the Leasing Center feeling like all troubles were behind her."Miss Scott, if I could borrow a minute of your time," Marcus called out from behind her. He instantly realized that Sabrina had asked to borrow $2,000 USD from him back at the banquet to compensate for a lost camera, and $2,000 USD could not even compare to what Marcus spent for a single meal."What did you need, Mr. Shaw?" Sabrina asked."Do you still need the money?" Marcus asked, struggling as to where he should start to explain himself."As you could see, I...no longer need it," Sabrina smiled gently."I had thought that you were one of those young

Her son had visited her at noon and had brought her all sorts of nutritious delicacies for lunch, which she was fed up with at this point. She craved nothing more than a normal home-cooked meal, and today, her wish came true."My daughter-in-law is the sweetest," Grace praised sincerely."If you really like it this much, I am more than willing to bring you lunch every day. With that small side income I got, it should be enough to keep both of us fed," Sabrina smiled joyfully from her heart, feeling as lucky as though she came across the money on the road."Let me tell you a little secret. I couldn’t care for the dishes made by famous cooks that my son has been bringing me. I'd rather have what you brought me. I'm going to forbid Sebastian from ever bringing me lunch, and I would only be eating food brought to me by my sweet Sabbie!" Grace picked fun at her son in front of Sabrina playfully."Deal!" Sabrina raised her hand to high-five with Grace, and the two laughed cheerfully. Non
