Ch. 2071..2080

Chapter 2071 "That's right. She is lucky that she is the young prince's type. Even if we were to die of jealousy, we can't help it as well."

"Let's go congratulate the newlyweds in Spanish later, and see what she'll say."

"That's a good suggestion."

"I really want to see her blushed on the spot."

"I heard that she has a low self-esteem..."

"Let's go. Let's go congratulate her..."

The group of ladies from eminent families, laughed together while walking in Ruth's direction.

At that moment, Ruth was in her wedding dress and was standing in the crowd entertaining the relatives of the Poole family, she was not feeling too inferior. Just as Sabrina said, that was her wedding, so she was the actual and true host.

After the group of beautiful women walked over while chatting and joking with each other, and right when they were about to greet Ruth, who had her back to them at that moment, the group saw that a handsome foreign young man in a suit was also walking towards the bride. One of those noble ladies knew that handsome foreign young man.

"Gosh, that's Daniel! He is the youngest and most well-known architecture designer in the west named Daniel. He is very famous. I also intend to let my son study architecture design after he grows up."

"Well, not only is this designer famous and handsome, but he is also super classy."

"Don't forget that Daniel is a friend that the little young master of the Poole family had specially invited from abroad."

"Hey, Nina, you're not married, so you can go for him. Your family happened to be in the real estate business as well..."

The girl named Nina instantly became coy. "He is a famous designer who is well-known in the west. If I were to pursue him, will I be able to succeed?"

"How would you know if you don't try?"

"Nina, you should be much better than Ruth, right? Even Ruth managed to get together with the little young master of the Poole family, surely you can get together with Daniel as well."

"Alright, I'll try." Nina plucked up the courage and walked towards Daniel.

However, she saw that Daniel had already come to the front of Ruth. He smiled while looking at Ruth, and then spoke to Ruth in fluent Spanish, "Miss Mann, I am finally at your wedding. It's my greatest honor to be able to attend your wedding."

The group of noble women behind Ruth were all speechless.

Ruth was a little confused, but out of courtesy, she also replied in Spanish, "Mister Daniel, what do you mean?"

The group of noble women behind Ruth were even more in disbelief. They looked at each other with incredulity. The few noble women, who were saying a few minutes ago that Ruth was illiterate and had not even graduated from middle school, were so shocked that their mouths were agape. Not only did Ruth speak Spanish, but her Spanish was incomparably fluent and proper, she was also confident speaking in Spanish.

"If I didn't attend your wedding, I truly had no idea how I could find you because I have always wanted to collaborate with you on a design. That hotel at Duplos that you had designed was well- known all over the world. The structure is very ingenious. I was in awe when I saw it, and I have always wanted to collaborate with you once after that."

Actually, the majority of the design for that hotel was completed by Sabrina. However, in order to build up Ruth's name and also let her establish a firm footing in the Poole family, Sabrina gave the credit to Ruth. However, Ruth had also put a lot of thought into designing that hotel as well.

"You are one of the two architecture designers that I admire the most in your country. One of them is Sabrina, and the other is you. Miss Mann, you're very talented. When can I get an appointment with you and collaborate with you?"

Ruth was speechless, she was very happy and felt that she was able to hold her head up high. After all, there were too many guests who came that day who looked down on her. However, seeing that Daniel approved of her and praised her on the spot, Ruth was truly incredibly grateful, so much so that she did not even know what to say.

Before she opened her mouth, she heard Ryan saying, "My wife is the most capable person. Not only was she good at her job, but she was also very fertile!"

Ruth was speechless.

Chapter 2072 Everyone was stunned by what Ryan had said.

"My wife is pregnant with twins, and she got pregnant while she was most swamped with work. That means while producing the draft for the architectural design, she also got pregnant with twins. Have you seen such a capable wife?" Ryan said very proudly.

What he said made Ruth blush in an instant, she was the bride that day and she did not wish for others to find out that she was pregnant! However, it was already too late. What Ryan had said made those ladies from eminent families, who wanted to create trouble for Ruth earlier on, immediately retreat to the side in a dejected manner.

Ruth, however, had gotten a huge advantage. There was a custom in Kidon City which was to tease the bride. On the day of the wedding, the bride was supposed to bear all the teasing. However, because Ryan had said that his wife was pregnant, nobody dared to tease Ruth anymore.

Ruth and Ryan's wedding of a century was held on a grand scale in Kidon City and it was both lively and heartwarming, which made Ruth feel extremely dignified. Ruth noticed that although both the men that Jane and also Sabrina had married were able to overpower her husband, Ryan, both Jane and Ryan did not have such a grand wedding like hers. Ruth felt incomparably happy.

When the wedding was over, Ruth boasted to Yvonne. "Yvonne, did you see my wedding? It's lively, right?"

Yvonne was very envious. Which girl would not be envious of the wedding of others? "Ruth, seeing that your wedding was so successful, I'm really tempted to have a grand wedding as well." "Great! When do you have to have it? The Shaw family's wedding definitely won't lose out to the Poole family's wedding. The wedding that your husband holds for you will certainly be better than Ruth's!"

Yvonne's eyes instantly lit up. "Really?"

"Really!"

"Great! Then, Marcus, when are we going to have our wedding?" Yvonne took the initiative to ask.

Marcus was stunned. For a very long time, Yvonne had never dared to have a wedding, she was afraid of marriage. That was the first time in two years that the girl had taken the initiative to speak about the wedding.

"Are you proposing to me?" Marcus asked.

Yvonne immediately smiled shyly, she then raised her hand and hit Marcus while pretending to be angry, "what are you saying?

You haven't even formally proposed to me yet!"

"How about I take advantage of US being at Ruth and Ryan's wedding to formally propose to you now?" asked Marcus.

Yvonne gave it a thought and she felt that such an occasion was not bad. They could piggyback off the joy of Ruth and Ryan's wedding.

"Yvonne, Yvonne! You and Marcus' wedding must be held after I have given birth. Wait for another eight months, alright?

Otherwise, I will have to attend your wedding while carrying a big belly. I will be very ugly!" Ruth suddenly said.

Both Yvonne and Marcus looked at each other and smiled. "Alright! I promise you! We'll get married after you have given birth!"

"Wow!" Ruth almost jumped for joy. "Yvonne, you're a true friend. Thank you..."

At that moment, Sabrina came to Yvonne and asked softly, "Have you already had an agreement with my cousin a long time ago that you'll marry him at the end of the year?"

Yvonne knew that she could not hide anything from Sabrina, so she nodded. "Yes!"

"What's the matter? Not afraid of marriage anymore?" Sabrina asked again.

Yvonne nodded her head. "I'm not afraid of marriage anymore because I learned that..." 1 The reason she was afraid of marriage in the past was because of Old Master Shaw. However, it was also because of old Master Shaw that she was no longer afraid of marriage anymore at that moment.

Chapter 2073 Although Yvonne was afraid of marriage, she was happiest among the few girls, since childhood, Yvonne was loved by both her father and mother, and even her uncle, aunt, and cousin also loved her very much. Yvonne had never suffered any grievances and hardship growing up. She grew up like a sweet girl in her family.

Her relationship with Marcus was the only thing that made her feel pressured. The pressure she felt came from old Master Shaw.

It was because she had witnessed how old Master Shaw had treated Sabrina very harshly that Yvonne felt greatly terrified of old Master Shaw. As time went by, even old Master Shaw felt her fear for him.

At one point, Old Master Shaw took the initiative to ask Yvonne, " My child, you have always been like a chirpy little sparrow, why is it that every time you see me, you'll turn to someone who doesn't utter a single word? Are you afraid of me?"

Yvonne immediately nodded. "Mm-hmm." After that, she shook her head again. "No, no, no, it's not like that..."

"You and Marcus have been in a relationship for two years, and yet, you never got married. Is it because of me?" Old Master Shaw was not a fool. He was able to figure everything out.

Yvonne was speechless.

"I will not stop your wedding anymore, my child," Old Master Shaw said very gently.

Yvonne absolutely could not believe it. She was so scared that she was at a loss for words.

"I know that you're afraid of me. In fact, I have a way to let you not be afraid of me," said old Master Shaw.

"Wh-Wh-What's the way?" Yvonne stuttered.

"The way is for me to be dead," said old Master Shaw.

"No...what are you talking about?" Yvonne asked.

Old Master Shaw smiled miserably, "what I said is true. I'm not joking with you. I... You know being alive is a kind of suffering for me. To me, it's easier to be dead than to be alive. However, all the mistakes I have made can't be written off, so I can only live on and slowly have a taste of such torture. Only then can I face my own conscience properly. So, my child, don't be afraid. You can just treat me as a walking dead. I will not interfere with you and Marcus ' wedding."

After saying that, old Master Shaw walked away while trembling and staggering. He seemed like a piece of leaf in the wind as he walked. He was unable to be steady on his foot and the way he swayed from side to side truly made Yvonne very worried when she saw it. Perhaps it was out of curiosity or some other reason, Yvonne followed behind him. she never expected that the old man would walk all the way to the small house that Gloria was staying at while trembling.

The old man stood at a place that was very far away from the iron fence and was barely able to see Gloria. He did not say a word. He just watched Gloria as she watered her plants and planted some flowers. From time to time, she would take a break while sitting on a small bench, and every now and then, she would even scroll through YooTub. Life was rich but calm for Gloria, which was great.

While watching her, Old Master Shaw unknowingly was covered in tears, and he even cried out loud. However, even so, old Master Shaw did not step into the yard and talk to his own daughter. Instead, he silently wiped his tears while walking away.

Yvonne, who was tailing him, also unknowingly had tears streaming down her face. That was the very first time she felt that the Old Master Shaw was also pitiful, she quickly caught up to the Old Master Shaw and said with great sympathy, "Old Master Shaw, I...I'll support you as you walk. In the future.Jf you want to come to see Gloria, I'll accompany you, alright? I feel she is not that kind of unreasonable person. Hasn't she already forgiven you?" 1 Old Master Shaw sighed and said, "she had forgiven me because she is generous. However, I will never be able to forgive myself. Regardless of the time and place, I should never be forgiven for all the things I have done to her and also her mother. I was the one who had disturbed her mother's life. I am a sinner that could never be forgiven. Yvonne, promise me, take good care of Gloria, alright? II Yvonne nodded. "Don't worry. Even if you didn't ask me to do it, I will also take good care of her. After all, she is Sabrina's mother."

"Good. Thank you."

"Old Master Shaw, I want to...get married to Marcus," Yvonne suddenly said.

Chapter 2074 Old Master Shaw looked at Yvonne with incredulity. "My child, have you thought it through? You're not...afraid of me anymore?

You don't...hate me anymore?"

Yvonne felt embarrassed. "You knew that?"

"I am already ninety years old. I will soon be an old monster, what is there I don't know of? I have thought about it. If you hate me, then I will go to a nursing home after you and Marcus get married... " Old Master Shaw said.

"No..." Yvonne was not heartless of a person at all. "I’m sorry. I am close to Sabrina, and I have witnessed so many people bullying and humiliating her. When that imposter granddaughter of yours repeatedly got people to set Sabrina up, I truly resented you very deeply then. You'll never be able to imagine how Sabrina and her mother escaped by the skin of their teeth. They're too pitiful.

Therefore, for a very long time, I was afraid of you because..."

"From now on, my opinion of you has changed. Once a person admits that they are wrong, it's never too late for them to correct their mistake. Besides, my relationship with Marcus is developed naturally without being influenced by external forces. I love him, so if I don't marry him because of you, I would suffer a great loss. This house is yours. You can stay there forever. As for Marcus and me, we can stay at your house as long as you don't disturb US. If you and Marcus' parents are afraid to get in the way of our lives, then we can also get a mortgage to buy a house." 1 Yvonne was an innocent and kind girl who had never been overly ambitious, she had no desire to be a social climber, she was still holding on to what her parents had taught her since childhood, which was to earn her own money and live a stable life. After she has grown up and married, the kind of life where she and her partner buy a house together and spend their days together would be the best.

What Yvonne said made Old Master Shaw even more ashamed of himself. His face reddened. "I have made a lot of mistakes my whole life. It's my greatest honor to be able to have such a granddaughter-in-law like you when I'm already so old. In the future, you'll be the youngest matriarch of the Shaw family."

"Thank you," said Yvonne. After her wedding with Marcus had been put on the agenda, Yvonne began to buy all sorts of things.

The wedding dress, decorations for the house, beauty treatments, and diet packages, she bought them all.

The wedding, from the preparation to engagement and to the actual wedding, took eight months to prepare. Yvonne and Marcus' wedding was held in South City. There was no doubt that their wedding was also a unique wedding in South City. The wedding venue was filled with guests. The Shaw family, the Ford family, the Smith family, the Connor family, and the guests from Kidon City, as well as Yvonne's family, packed the venue.

There was also no doubt that Yvonne was the most beautiful and dazzling princess at the wedding. Yvonne truly felt very fulfilled and happy that day. Her two best friends, Sabrina and Yvonne, also were happy as they celebrated their friend. 1 However, Ruth was already eight months pregnant and she was carrying twins, so it was very difficult for her to move out. She needed Ryan to help her with every step that she had taken.

However, even so, Ruth still did not care about anything and ran back and forth to capture every moment of Yvonne and Marcus.

"Oh. This is bad..."

"What's wrong? What's the matter, dear? What happened?" Ryan immediately asked.

"My stomach hurts. I seem to be having contractions and it’s coming in waves. Ouch..." Ruth was in so much pain that she curled on the floor.

Ryan was extremely pissed off. "Look at you! I had already repeatedly told you that we can do a good job for Yvonne's wedding, but you just wouldn't listen. You just had to do everything yourself. Think about it, it's the Shaw family's wedding and it's in South City, so it has Uncle Sebastian's support. What do you need to worry about? Even Sabrina is not as worried as you! You, on the other hand, kept running back and forth while carrying that ball-like belly of yours all day. Do you really think you're a beautiful sight to behold?"

"Oh, Ryan, you d*mned person! I am already about to give birth and you're still mocking me! I hate you! After I have given birth, I will not let the children be close to you!" Yvonne was so angry that she sat on the ground and hit Ryan. 1 Ryan immediately coaxed. "Alright, alright. It's all my fault. Let's go now. I'll immediately carry you to the hospital..."

Chapter 2075 Before anybody knew it, Ryan had already picked up his wife and was rushing out the door like mad. Everyone else at the wedding could also tell what was going on. They then split themselves into two groups with one of the groups staying back to attend Yvonne's wedding and the other following Ryan to the hospital.

Yvonne was truly experiencing double the happiness that day. Not only did she get married, but her best friend was going to be giving birth as well. The wedding still carried on as usual in a very lively manner.

It was after the wedding was over and they had sent Yvonne and Marcus off to consummate their marriage that Sabrina and the rest of the people went to the hospital. Sabrina was incomparably worried the whole journey to the hospital, since that was the first time Ruth was giving birth and it was twins, Sabrina just did not know if it was going to be a smooth delivery and if a cesarean section was needed. Throughout the whole journey, Sabrina kept urging Sebastian to step on it. As though if she could arrive a little earlier, Ruth would suffer a little less. 1 While driving, Sebastian kept assuring her by saying, "It will be fine. Don't worry. The medical field is very advanced now. It's not going to be difficult to deliver twins."

Sabrina did not know whether to cry or laugh. "You're a man. what do you know? You just didn't know that when Jane gave birth to her child, she almost died on the operating table. She had a hemorrhage and was unable to get out of bed for several days.

Hana was at an advanced maternal age, so she also almost died at the operating table while giving birth to her child. As I think about all the sufferings they had been through, I just felt worried for Ruth.

"Ruth seemed like a firecracker and a shrew, but she is actually more timid, sensitive, and weaker than anyone else at the bottom of her heart, she was a child abandoned by her parents. Women, especially during childbirth, would let their minds run wild thinking of many things. She would think of her past and her parents. She would think of how cruel her parents were. They actually abandoned her and even cheated her for her whole life.

Not only did they not let her go to school, but they taught her all the bad things and let her have such low self-esteem that she can't hold her head up high for life.

"When she thinks about all that, she could have exhausted all her strength. Strength is the key to childbirth for a woman. Once she has exhausted all her strength, she will be finished!"

When he heard Sabrina saying all that, Sebastian knew that his wife was speaking from experience, she also had thought about all that when she was on the operating table. He immediately put his wife in his arms and said with immense guilt, "When you were giving birth to Aino, you were also a hair's breadth away from death, and you had also thought about many things, haven't you? You have also thought of how cruel and irresponsible I was as a father, haven't you? Tell me, how did you manage to survive on the operating table while giving birth to Aino?"

Tears instantly welled up in Sabrina's eyes. "At that time, I..."

At that time, she truly was in an incomparably miserable state. She laid on the operating table with no money and nobody with her but her brother, Zayn. At that moment, Sabrina felt that the best thing that could happen to her was for her to die on the operating table.

However, when she thought of the child in her belly, she thought that that would be greatly unfortunate to the child. The child still had not even come into the world, but she had to die in her mother's belly? Sabrina could not be so cruel. She had to ignore everything else and make herself a mother as strong as steel. She had to endure everything herself and she must become strong.

She had no way out anymore, with the perseverance to escape death by the skin of her teeth, she gave birth to Aino. However, she never wanted to taste that kind of misery a second time. Therefore, Sabrina had a stronger emotion than anybody else when it comes to childbirth.

In comparison to Sabrina, Ruth did not have even a quarter of Sabrina's strength. Sabrina also knew that Ruth's adoptive parents were the biggest trouble on Ruth's mind. Sabrina had to go and encourage her while she was on the operating table.

The car was driven at lightning speed. Soon, they arrived outside of the delivery room. Sabrina was incomparably worried while looking at Ryan, who was waiting outside of the delivery room. " How is Ruth doing?"

Chapter 2076 Ryan was standing alone outside of the delivery room and his expression was very strange.

Sabrina was so scared that her heart was pounding like mad. she grabbed Ryan and asked, "where is Ruth? How is she? what am I not hearing her cries? Quickly tell me, how is Ruth?"

Ryan raised his eyebrows and looked at Sabrina. "Do you know, Aunt Sabrina?"

"What?" Sabrina asked.

"Ruth...after Ruth came to the delivery room, it took her less than... less than an hour, and she gave birth to two children!"

Sabrina was speechless. Sebastian was also stunned.

"It was a painless delivery, you know? I had never seen someone giving birth so quickly. Aunt Sabrina, I truly suspect that in the past when you, Aunt Jane, and also Zayn's wife, Hana, had given birth, all of you faked the difficult process. Hahaha..."

Sabrina was speechless. After a long time, she raised her hand and hit Ryan on his shoulder. "Do you want to die? If you want to die, just say the word! I will kill you immediately! Your wife had already given birth, and yet, you still stand outside the delivery room with a bitter expression waiting for US. Are you trying to scare US to death?"

Behind them, Alex, Jane, as well as Jane's two-and-a-half-year- old son, Ricky, also arrived in a rush. There was also Zayn and his wife, Hana, as well as their one-year-old son, Julian Smith. Nigel and Minerva, who was attending medical school, were behind them.

Minerva had been very close to both Ruth and Yvonne at that moment, when she learned that Ruth was about to give birth, Minerva also took the initiative to come over, she was studying medicine, so she was hoping that she could help.

When these people saw Ryan joking with them like that, every one of them wanted to beat Ryan up into a pulp. The little child, Aino, felt particularly so. She hated Ryan for that so much that she hugged his leg and stomped on it as hard as she could.

"You're too mean, Ryan! I will beat you into a pulp, beat you into a pulp, beat you into a pulp!"

When they saw Aino aggressively beating Ryan up, the children who were younger than Aino were all gearing up to do the same.

Aino already has three younger brothers. There was Louie, who was Aino's biological brother. There was Uncle Alex's child, Ricky, and also her Uncle Zayn's child, Julian. The oldest among them was Ricky, who was two and a half years old. Louie was one year and four months old. Julian had just turned one and had just learned to walk so he was still staggering all over the place.

However, they did not affect the three boy's fighting power at all. The three boys, who were in diapers, stood side by side, and together, they rushed like mad towards Ryan. They were also roaring gibberish, so their formation looked very spectacular. When they were rushing over furiously, the diapers they were wearing were even moving all over the place. Just like that, the three boys, who were filled with anger, charged towards Ryan together. They intended to push Ryan down, and then ride on top of them before beating him up. They did not know what mistakes Ryan had made. They just knew that their elder sister, Aino, was annoyed with Ryan. Whatever Aino was feeling, her three brothers would feel the same.

The three boys then recklessly bump into Ryan together. However, Ryan did not budge at all. Not only did he not move, he even burst out laughing. When he saw the four children, with the tallest being only as tall as this own waistline, beating him up together, Ryan was extremely happy.

"You're still laughing? You still had the cheeks to laugh?" Sabrina was pissed beyond measure.

"Please, my dear Aunt Sabrina. Look for yourself. No matter if it's your phone, Uncle Sebastian's phone, Uncle Alex's phone, or Aunt Jane's phone, I had called them all, alright? All of you were the ones who did not hear it! Ruth had long been transferred to the ward. The delivery was very smooth and was painless. The doctor even said that she can be discharged now. However, in order to wait for all of you at the hospital, Ruth had no choice but to first stay at the hospital. However, she was afraid all of you were not able to find her, so she deliberately sent me to stand outside of this delivery room to wait for your arrival, alright!"

Chapter 2077 "All of you better not wrongfully accuse me! I, Ryan Poole, will cry! I At that moment, there was not a single trace of choking in Ryan's voice. Sabrina could tell that he was simply just feeling smug.

He was incomparably smug.

"Quickly take US to see Ruth! If you don't lead the way! I will beat you into a pulp!" said Sabrina while being annoyed.

"Roger that! Aunt Sabrina!" Ryan turned around and headed towards the ward.

"Hold on, Ryan. Wait!" Sabrina called out again.

Ryan turned his head around and looked at Sabrina, "what's the matter?"

"Tell me first, did you have boys, girls, or fraternal twins?"

"I'm not telling you! I'm not telling you! I just won't tell you!" Ryan said with an incomparably cocky expression.

Ryan was so smug that he even sang a tune. That pissed off Sabrina and also the group of people behind her so badly that they felt both angry and amused. However, seeing that Ryan had just become a father that day, they did not lower themselves to his level. They then followed Ryan all the way to Ruth's ward. Before they entered the ward, they were able to hear the babies crying inside the room. It was quite loud and clear. Sabrina was even able to tell if they were boys or girls from those loud and clear cries.

At that moment, once Ryan heard his children crying, he got even more excited. He turned his head around and rudely looked at Alex. "Uncle Alex, I have one more child than you now. I am now a father of two! You only have one child. Haha!"

Alex was speechless. Ryan usually was not afraid of his own father but was afraid of his Uncle Alex. However, that day, he was not even afraid of his uncle anymore. Ryan could not help but smile.

This brat truly deserved a beating! However, seeing that he had just become a father, he was let off the hook!

The group of people came to the door of the ward, and they saw Austin and Patricia holding one child each. The couple was both wandering around frantically.

"Austin, do you think this child has just pooped? why is this child crying all the time?"

"Well, they are newborn babies. It's fine if they cry a little, what are you worried about?"

"Austin, look at these two children. They look so much like our Ryan. They almost looked like they were made from the same mold, " Patricia said.

Austin smiled. "I think the children looked half like their mother and half like our Ryan. They both had inherited the strengths of their parents. They are truly beautiful!"

"Mind you, although Ruth is a firecracker, a shrew, and is uncultured, the children she gave birth to were great in every way. Look at their noble temperament, they truly have the temperament of the Poole family members," Patricia said.

"Hmph!" A breathless retort suddenly could be heard coming from the bed. "My children are going to be peasants, shrews, and feisty people! My children are not going to be noble little young masters! Hmph!"

Patricia coaxed Ruth in an imcomporably compliant manner. " Alright, alright, alright, we'll listen to whatever you say, okay? You should not get angry now. You need to rest more. Be good."

Sabrina and Jane, who were outside of the ward, looked at each other and smiled. While smiling, both of them entered the spacious ward.

"Ruth, congratulations on your smooth delivery. You even had a painless delivery as well. Your husband just wouldn't tell US whether you have given birth to two boys, two girls, or fraternal twins." Sabrina came to the side of the bed, and then smiled and looked at Ruth, who was as white as a sheet.

Ruth immediately sat up and then she became teary-eyed. " Sabrina, you...are finally here, but I...had already given birth."

Sabrina stifled a laugh.

Ruth, whoever, immediately broke into a smile. "Aino will have five handsome younger brothers protecting her in the future, she will have five good soldiers!"

Chapter 2078 Once Aino heard that, she immediately said in surprise, "It's another... two younger brothers again?"

Ruth nodded. "That's right."

"I...I now have five younger brothers?" Aino asked again.

"So, you are the only little princess and the only girl in this few families of ours. Aino, you'll be the rose among the thorns in the future. All your younger brothers are born to protect you."

Aino chuckled. "Hahaha..." she felt like she was surrounded by happiness, she was filled with joy. The only drawback was that she had no little sister to accompany her, but it did not matter. In any case, she could make many good friends at school. Also, she still has Miss Minerva.

While Aino was overjoyed, she turned around and looked back at Minerva. Minerva had grown a lot. she was different from when she had just come to South city three years ago where she was still like a child. At that moment, Minerva had already grown up to be a big girl and was even more beautiful. She was just like a fairy. The most beautiful fairy in the whole world. Minerva, who was like an ugly duckling in everyone's eyes, looked just like a proper beautiful swan in Aino's eyes.

Aino came to the front of Minerva. "It's fine, Miss Minerva. I will have you as my elder sister in the future, and that's enough!"

Minerva smiled. "Mm-hmm. I will protect you forever, but let me tell you something, you have to study hard! Your grades must be excellent otherwise, I'll pinch your nose!"

Minerva was considered a person who was best at keeping Aino under control, she loved Aino very much, but she had never spoiled her. Every now and then, she would criticize Aino to keep her in check. Aino, on the other hand, has always listened to whatever Minerva said. It was true that everyone could be subdued by another person. Everyone in the ward looked at Minerva and Aino, and then they intuitively smiled at the same time.

However, Aino was also considered like a grown-up. The nine-year -old child's grades were top-notch in her grade. In terms of studies, Aino could also be outstanding without Minerva's supervision. Aino was naturally smart, she truly had inherited her parent's best qualities. Not only was she beautiful, but her grades were also fantastic and her mind was very sharp, she was incomparably outstanding in all aspects.

Aino was a proper beautiful girl who was breath-taking. Also, she did not need her parents to pick her up or drop her off anymore, let alone her Uncle Kingston do the same. She was able to take the bus to and from school by herself every day, and she was even able to take a flight on her own to visit her Aunt Jane and Aunt Ruth. Aino was able to travel the world by herself.

When Aino was twelve years old, Sabrina's second son was born. At that time, Sabrina was already thirty four years old. She was exuding a sense of maturity, competency, and calm composure all over her body. Sabrina, who had become a mother of three, was already the deputy director of the company she was working for. Like Sebastian, she was also in charge of all the company's affairs, had a secretary and an assistant by her side, and drove her own car whenever she was out. She was no longer the little girl who was at the mercy of others from more than ten years ago.

At that moment, Sabrina had an imposing air in every move she made, but at the same time, she also had the gentleness and charm of a woman. No matter where she went, she was always a dazzling sight to behold. She was even almost as impressive as Sebastian.

In the year when Aino turned twelve, Sabrina even got an interview on the women's interest channel. That channel had very high viewership ratings in South city as considered as a mainstream channel. It could be viewed in all corners of South City, including a certain detention center, when he saw that his daughter was still going strong while he had wasted all his life in the detention center, Lincoln felt so miserable that he almost bit off his tongue. He threatened the personnel at the detention center with his own death and made them call Sabrina.

Sabrina was playing with her three children when she received the call.

Chapter 2079 In fact, the oldest child, Aino, was already like a grown-up, so it was more like she was taking care of her two brothers together with her mother, she had truly become her mother's most considerate child. Aino understood all her mother's sufferings, and she was the person who loved her mother the most. Her thoughts were already so close to maturity that she felt she could already protect her mother.

Therefore, when she saw her mother's expression immediately changed after receiving the call, Aino immediately looked at her mother with concern. "Mom, what's wrong?"

When Sabrina saw her own daughter, she suddenly burst into tears. Sabrina was sent to her biological father's house at that age.

For eight years, she did not know that that man was her father, and she was only able to address him as her uncle. Also, she had been living by her father's side with a grateful attitude at all times. Sabrina was living like a dog and was ingratiatingly wagging her tail to her father to beg for food. Those unforgettable eight years had been etched in her memory for life.

At that moment, she had already become very strong, so much so that nobody could hurt her anymore. However, she received a call, and an old voice said, "Sabrina, can you...come to visit me?"

A sea of tidal waves suddenly stirred up Sabrina's peaceful life, she was so furious that she wanted to smash her phone. It was her daughter who calmly caught her phone.

"Mom, I'll go with you to visit him. Don't be afraid, I'm here. I will not let anybody hurt my mom," said Aino incredibly calmy. 1 Upon saying that, Aino put her mother in her arms. At that moment, Sabrina suddenly felt that other than Sebastian and her mother, she finally had a third loved one who knew how to protect her, and that person was her daughter. At that moment, Sabrina's heart melted.

During the weekend, Aino accompanied her mother to the detention center in the suburbs to visit her mother's father, Lincoln Lynn, whom she had not seen for years. Lincoln's family of three were all still in the detention center. However, Jade had already gone mad. She felt spouting nonsense all day long and just ate and defecated everywhere. As for their precious daughter, although she had not gone mad, she was living a life worse than death being tormented by diseases, she had already had three organ transplants and was weak beyond measure. Her life was purely dependent on medication.

Selene's hair had long fallen off because of the chemotherapy, and because of the hormonal medication, she became so bloated that she looked like a big round ball, she was not able to fit into many clothes anymore. She was wearing huge clothes, but even then, Selene's belly was still exposed, and her belly was covered with messy surgical scars. The way she looked was incomparably ugly. However, no matter how ugly she was, her mind was still indeed clear.

She was held up in the dark and had never had any visitors all year round. However, she was able to see the news of the world outside. She saw that Sabrina had already given birth to three children, and Sabrina's status in South city at that moment was second to none. Also, this status was completely earned by Sabrina's own merit. She did not rely on Sebastian. She was respected by the entire South City, and her three children were incomparably healthy.

Sabrina still had a figure like a young girl and her skin was also well maintained. Not only did she not age, but she was even more beautiful, more confident, more cheerful, and more feminine than before.

Every time Selene saw Sabrina on TV, she would go crazy cursing her. However, every time she cursed Sabrina, Selene would be violently beaten up by Lincoln. This time, when Lincoln was beating up Selene with all his might, a voice could suddenly be heard coming from behind him.

"Dad...," Sabrina called out coldly.

Chapter 2080 Lincoln suddenly stopped. He heard someone calling him "Dad." He could not believe it. He felt that he might be dreaming, and he did not even dare to look back. His hands were stopped in mid air and his entire body was frozen.

"Dad...," Sabrina called out again.

Lincoln suddenly turned his head around, and he was a mature and gentle woman in her thirties and a child next to her. Lincoln looked at Aino and blurted out, "Sabrina, Sabrina, my Sabrina, you've reverted to when you were twelve years old."

Aino smiled indifferently. "I'm sorry. I am not your daughter, Sabrina. I am Sabrina's daughter."

"Aino, you're Aino. You've already grown so much?" Lincoln said.

"Yes, I am twelve this year, which is exactly the same age as my mother when she entered your house," Aino said.

Hearing Aino saying that, Lincoln instantly was covered in tears.

"Sabrina, I...have wronged you."

"Dad, what's the matter for you to ask me here?" Sabrina asked.

It was only then that Lincoln regained his senses and realized that Sabrina was actually addressing him as her father. All those years in the past, she had never addressed him like that before. When she was still very young, she wanted to call him "Dad."

However, he had never let her do so. Every time he saw that she wanted to address him as such, Lincoln would feel incomparably disgusted. He was afraid that Sabrina would be stuck to him and not let him go.

However, at that moment, Lincoln desperately wished that Sabrina could call him "Dad." Has his wish actually come true?

"You're actually willing to call me ‘Dad?'" Lincoln pushed Selene away and aggressively kicked her before he looked at Sabrina with joy. It was as if he had seen hope.

Sabrina said calmly, "In terms of blood relations, you are my father. This is something I can't change, so I should be calling you ' Dad."' "Sabrina, you...you know that we are a pair of father and daughter, who are related by blood, and this is something that can't be broken, right? Therefore, you know that you are obligated to provide me with financial support, right?" Lincoln looked at Sabrina with hope.

He has a family in this world. He, Lincoln Lynn, has a daughter. His daughter has a successful career in South city and is very well- respected by others. His daughter is very capable, so as her father, he has someone he could rely on. From then on, he could rely on his daughter and live comfortably for the rest of his life. In the next life, he could live like a free man. Lincoln looked at Sabrina with a gaze filled with great expectations.

"You know the obligation of providing support quite well, don't you?" Sabrina calmly asked.

Lincoln smiled with embarrassment. "Well, I...I am also a college graduate, so of course, I know about that."

"Since you know about it, then why didn't you support me from the time I was born until I was twelve?" asked Sabrina.

Lincoln was at a loss for words. 1 After a long while, he explained, "Sabrina, you were still very small at that time. It's not that I didn't want to raise you. You were taken away by your mother, where could I go to find you?"

"Wasn't it because you had an affair and you forced my mother out, and then you even married my mom to my dad when my mom had her back up against the wall?" Sabrina asked in return.

Lincoln was speechless. "Even if I had never raised you before you turned twelve, after you turn twelve, I had raised you, and I even sent you to college. I even..."

"Isn't raising me and sending me to college the responsibility that you should've taken? But, what have you done to me instead?

You clearly knew that I was your daughter, but have you ever acknowledged me? You have never acknowledged my relationship with you. You have also never allowed me to call you 'Dad! Also, you had put a price on those eight years you have raised me, you made me pay for it! You forcefully took away my right to go to college and you personally sent me to prison! I already repaid all your kindness for raising me with the two years I've spent in prison!"
