Ch. 2191..2200

Chapter 2191 In other words, this female architecture designer certainly had been through all sorts of difficulties working on the construction site for many years, otherwise, it was impossible for her to accumulate such extensive experience. Had once been through plenty of difficulties working on the construction site? It suddenly occurred to Misty that Sabrina had come from the bottom of society.

Yvonne had also said earlier on that several of her friends around her were from the bottom of society. Also, Yvonne and Sabrina were good friends.

Gosh! Misty suddenly felt dizzy. Could it be that the female architecture designer that she had admired for so long was actually Sabrina? Misty, however, had taken Sabrina as an eye-candy who only knew how to act like a spoiled child at home and look pretty? She even thought that Sabrina was still very lowly?

Misty was very flustered, and she stammered, "Could it be that you -you're..."

At that moment, Sabrina asked Misty again, "Miss white, you still haven’t answered my question, why do you have such a huge grudge against my friend? How could you say such harsh words to a girl who was not me? You were criticizing my friend, but in fact, you're criticizing me. Miss white, may I know if we have had any interactions prior to this? Have we met before?" 1 That was right. They had never met each other before, and yet, Misty just stopped a woman who was not Sabrina and criticized Sabrina. She truly was extremely stupid.

There were many people there looking at Misty.

"That's right. You're so weird. Why did you criticize Missus Ford in just a harsh tone for no reason?"

"Were you any better? You're in a wheelchair and you have an ankle splint, with how you look, you should be recuperating at home, and yet, you came to such a serious place to argue with others. You even said that Missus Ford was ill-mannered. I think you're the ill-mannered shrew."

"Where did you come from, you shrew? why are you here acting unreasonable and making trouble?"

"I'm guessing you've been dumped by your man, haven't you?"

"Would any man want such a woman with such a face like hers?"

The group of people began to express their opinions. They were truly angered by Misty earlier on. None of them recognized her, and yet, she pushed her wheelchair over and barged in with a string of criticisms. Did she think she was very noble?

Misty looked at the people in her surroundings that were criticizing her, and she truly wanted to take cover in the ground out of embarrassment. She had never experienced anything so embarrassing growing up, especially while being in a wheelchair and having an ankle splint, she indeed looked ugly beyond measure. When she faced the capable, simple, and incomparably elegant Sabrina while looking so ugly, the drastic difference between the two women was clear as day, yet, she actually mocked Sabrina earlier on. She truly did not hold back at embarrassing herself, and she did not even leave any way out for herself. 1 However, what made Misty feel even more awkward was when a man's voice coming from somewhere nearby could suddenly be heard saying, "Is my dear mentor here already?"

Misty could tell straight away that it was Daniel's voice. She had met Daniel several times, so she was very familiar with him.

When Daniel had arrived, a trace of relief immediately appeared on Misty's face. After all, she was considered Daniel's friend. If Daniel had come over, then Misty would be saved from her embarrassment.

"Daniel, Daniel! Hurry up and come over here." Misty desperately wanted to get out of the wheelchair and rush straight to Daniel's side.

Daniel then followed the direction of her voice and came over. When he came to the front of Sabrina and Misty, he was also stunned and he did not say anything for a long while. Misty, whoever, took the lead and said, "Daniel, you're...here, my old friend.

How long has it been since we last saw each other? Previously when we were at the hotel in Duplos, we had lunch together, and that was—"

Daniel very ungraciously cut Misty off. "I'm sorry, Miss White. I still have some business today, so let's talk about the private matters after the seminar."

Misty felt so awkward that she could only laugh it off. "Haha..."

Daniel then turned to look at Sabrina with admiration. "My dear mentor...! never expect that you'll arrive earlier than me."

Mentor?

Misty's eyes were widened. "Sabrina, are you...that local female architecture designer?"

Chapter 2192 Sabrina turned around and smiled at Misty. "What's the matter, Miss White? Do you feel it shouldn't be me?"

Misty was speechless. She was completely frozen in place! Her mouth was wide agape. Her pearly white teeth which were fully exposed were a stark and hilarious contrast to the white bandage on her foot. The way she looked was so ironic and embarrassing.

Misty originally was not ugly. Even if she were in a wheelchair, she still looked very good. However, the way she mocked Yvonne for no reason earlier on and how shocked she looked at that moment made her look incredibly ugly compared to Sabrina.

However, Misty had no idea how ugly she looked at that moment.

That was because she admired that local female architecture designer so much, she heard that she had never studied in an internationally renowned architecture school. She heard that all of her designs were based on her experience. She heard that her design styles were the most unique in the world. Not only were her designs unique, but all of the architecture built from her designs was sturdiest. With such skills in design, even the ordinary male designers could not be compared to her, let alone other female designers. It was also no wonder that the world-renowned architecture designer, Daniel, was willing to be her student and respectfully addressed her as his mentor.

Misty had long wanted to make acquaintance with this female architecture designer. That was because there were plenty of projects that needed to be developed in the vast southeastern region. If she was able to have the support of this top architecture designer in the world, then the White family would have an even firmer footing in the southeastern market. However, never in a million years would Misty expect that the architecture designer was Sabrina. It was actually Sabrina! She was the woman that Misty had despised in so many ways in the past few days. How hilarious.

Perhaps even Sabrina's child had detected Misty's embarrassing intentions. Otherwise, Sebastian and Sabrina's child would not have come up to her and pushed her twice two days ago. The first time she pushed Misty, she precisely pushed her to the gap of the drain cover, and Misty's foot was then caught in it. After that, she pushed her over again. Without any doubt, Misty sprained her foot. What a great plan and tactic. She was only a twelve-year-old child, but she was absolutely brilliant. It seemed like Aino's smartness should have come from all of the merits of her parents, and she had surpassed her parents.

Misty found that she was truly silly when she reflected on herself. How dare she look down on others? How dare she think that she was better than a housewife? In the eyes of the mother and daughter, she was simply a clown who did not even know that her bottom was exposed.

Misty just stared blankly at Sabrina. Her face became completely red at one moment, and then it turned as white as a sheet the next moment, which looked really like a monkey's bottom. However, even when she was in such an awkward position, Sebastian also did not intend to comfort her, let alone save her from the embarrassment.

Sabrina, however, was still smiling gently as she looked at Misty. " Miss White, what's the matter? Are you not feeling well?"

"No, no..." Misty replied.

"Miss White, you don't look too good. I'm guessing that you must be feeling unwell. You had just sprained your foot the day before yesterday, and it's my daughter's recklessness that had led to you spraining your foot. You're already injured, but you still insisted on coming to the exhibition to support both me and my student. I truly am very grateful for that. I don't even know what I should say. However, Miss White, since you're already injured, you actually can sit out on this one. I won't blame you."

Chapter 2193 "That is because this is a seminar for the professionals in the architectural industry. As an outsider, a pampered young lady of the White family, and a pure, kind, and delicate little flower, who had never seen the real construction team, you actually don't understand what we’re discussing. Therefore, there’s truly no need for you to come over to support me. However, I still am very thankful for you, Miss white. Thank you."

Sabrina's remark seemed like she was complimenting Miss White for coming to support her. She seemed like she was complimenting Misty for insisting on coming despite her foot injury, and that she was a pure, kind, and delicate little flower. In fact, she was mocking her. She mocked Misty for simply being a delicate flower that was pampered, who could be injured with just a little mishap, and was absolutely unpresentable! Her mockery was extremely obvious and harsh, but Misty did not have the chance to talk back at all.

How was she supposed to talk back? Was Sabrina wrong to say that she was unpresentable? A moment ago, she verbally attacked someone the moment she entered, she had even criticized a person after she mistook her for Sabrina. It was not a big deal to have criticized the wrong person. The main thing was that she did not even know Sabrina, yet she criticized her. what does that mean? It meant that she was envious! It meant that she had ulterior motives! At that moment, Misty felt as if she had been stripped bare by Sabrina. It seemed like Sabrina had already known everything that she had in mind, as well as all of her plans. She was even coveting her husband, so could Sabrina not attack her?

Misty looked at Sabrina extremely awkwardly, and she was unable to speak for a very long while with her mouth agape. At that moment, Sebastian slowly came to Sabrina and said to her with a very flat and a little cold tone, "Daniel and You are the host today, so don't make too big of a deal out of this."

Sabrina immediately smiled. "Alright, hubby."

She always did what Sebastian says. She changed her attitude very quickly, when she turned her head around, Sabrina was smiling at Misty. "I'm just joking, Miss white. You're an important guest to the Ford Group and also this seminar. Isn't Daniel designing this overpass for both the Ford Group and the White Group? Wouldn't you say so, Miss white?"

Misty immediately was saved from the embarrassment, she wore a meaningful smile and said with a little contempt in her tone. "

Missus Ford, you're quite observant. You even knew that this is a collaboration project between my company and your husband's company. It looks like you take the white Group very seriously as well." 1 "Of course, I've said it before that you're an important guest of my husband's company," said Sabrina. She was flattering her.

Misty's tone got even more disdainful. "I'm guessing that you're afraid of your husband, right?"

Sabrina immediately admitted it. "Yes."

Misty immediately glanced at Sebastian. Sebastian had no expression, he just said to Sabrina seriously, "An important guest has arrived over there. Come with me to greet the guest."

"Alright, hubby." Sabrina was very obedient, she took her husband's arm, and it was after they had taken a few steps forward that she heard Sebastian say, "why did you give her so much respect? She had threatened and insulted you! If it were up to me, I would have kicked her out of the country!"

Sabrina coaxed her husband, "Dear, that is your client who had given you business worth billions."

"I don't care about that," Sebastian said without any expression.

Sabrina rested her head on Sebastian's shoulder and said gently, " But, I care. I can't let my husband lose a huge contract that is worth billions in order to take care of me. Sebastian, I am your wife. I have to think about you all the time. In any case, I had already intimidated her just now. I'm guessing that she won't dare to be coveting you in the future."

After saying that, Sabrina even turned her head back to smile kindly at Misty.

Sebastian, however, sighed. "You're too kind, other women are not as kind as you."

He had his reason when he said that. 1 After the seminar was over, Misty stopped Sebastian outside of the main entrance. It so happened that Sabrina was seeing a guest off at that moment, so Sebastian was alone outside of the main entrance. Sebastian was not surprised at all to see Misty stopping him.

"Do you need something, Miss White?" Sebastian asked coldly.

"Sebastian, I...want to be your mistress and bear your children, can I?" Misty said boldly.

Chapter 2194 Sebastian thought he had heard it wrong. He absolutely did not dare to believe his ears, and his expression also instantly became extremely disgusted. "What did you say?"

"I-I want to be your mistress. Sebastian, I have already met your wife today. She is indeed very outstanding. I can't compete with her. I’m willing to admit defeat. I won't ask to share the same status as her. I know that this country practices monogamy, so I won't ask you to give me a status. I just want to be your mistress. I'll just be your mistress. I'll bear your children, and the entire White family will be yours in the future," Misty said incomparably eagerly.

There was no denying that she was too fond of Sebastian. He was very manly, had never been submissive to her, and never spoiled her. Instead, he had been giving her the cold shoulder. Misty was truly too fond of this man. Among all the men that she had known, none of them could compare to Sebastian. Misty had a standard for picking a man. she absolutely would not marry any man who was weaker than her. However, if she had taken a fancy to the man, even if she could only be his lover, she was also willing, she felt that perhaps she had the tendency to degrade herself, but so what if she did degrade herself? she had taken a fancy to Sebastian, she was fond of him. She was willing to be his mistress. 1 Besides, she was rather familiar with the Ford family. Both Sean and Henry once had mistresses. That was nothing strange in the Ford family. Therefore, she was certain that if she gave herself to Sebastian, he certainly would want her. After all, she was the young lady of the white family and also the director of the white Group. Which man would not want her?

However, what Misty had never expected was that Sebastian would instantly push her away. "The contract is not in force yet.

From today on, the Ford Group will never collaborate with the white Group! You can fuck off now!"

Misty was startled. "What did you-you say?"

"Get back to your territory!"

Misty was speechless.

"If you can behave yourself in your territory, then I'll consider not to snatch the business with you. If you have any ulterior intentions about me again, I will be able to take over your entire White Group within five years! I'm not joking with you! Fuck off immediately!"

Misty cried on the spot, she felt wronged. "Sebastian, what about me that is not good?"

"There's nothing bad about you," Sebastian said.

"Then, why don't I even have the right to be your mistress? To put it bluntly, I simply am fond of you. I want to give myself to you without asking anything in return. I am willing to bear your children. It's all out of my own will. Can you just let me?"

"Of course not!"

"Why?" Misty was very confused.

With her understanding of men, every man in this world liked to have an affair. It was just whether they had the chance to do it or not. She was already willing to give herself to him without any reservation, but he unexpectedly did not want her.

Sebastian sneered and then looked at Misty with disgust.

Misty was still crying. "Sebastian, are you pretending to have high moral standards? But your father, grandfather, and all the men in the Ford family had always been like this. The women your grandfather was involved with were at least eight, right? The women your father has had in his life can't even be counted, right? You're not even the child of your father's wife. Having a mistress is something that's allowed for the men in the Ford family!"

She felt very wronged. She thought that having a mistress was a habit of the men in the Ford family. How come this habit has changed with him?

Chapter 2195 Sebastian laughed coldly and grabbed Misty's chin. Then, he said fiercely, "Woman! You're truly asking for trouble. You only knew that all of the men in the Ford family loved to have an affair, but did you know what those women who were involved had been through? You know all about the Ford family, but do you know my mother?

"Did you know that my mother had never worn a wedding dress in her life, had never been married to a man, and had never entered the Ford Residence for even a day? Did you know that until she died, the man, whom she had two children with, had never watched over her on her deathbed?

"Did you know how their illegitimate children grow up from childhood? Did you know that as a mistress, the woman did not even have the right to give birth to her children? In the end, she had no choice but to hide one of her children away. Since then, that child lived in gloom for the rest of his life, and the thing he wanted the most in life was the warmth of a family.

"You talk about being a mistress so easily. Did you know what it's like to be a girl who was pregnant with the child of a man from the Ford family when she had turned twenty but was heartlessly driven away by that man? She was at her wit's end and had to deliver the child by herself, and because nobody was there to take care of her child, her newborn baby was sold by a human trafficker. In the end, the twenty-year-old girl lost all hope in life and became a nun. Do you know what it's like to live in guilt for life? Did you know how much suffering the child that was sold had to experience in life? Did you know about that? Do you understand that? Yet, you just came to talk to me about being a mistress!"

Sebastian rarely wasted so much energy talking to a person. To be honest, he had been in a slightly depressed mood in the past few days. It had nothing to do with his company. Rather, when he saw Elsa, who had lived in the mountains for decades, Sebastian felt an indescribable misery.

What had Elsa done wrong? what had Sebastian's mother done wrong? Their lives were both ruined by a man, but the man that had harmed them was not brought to justice and had lived his life with peace of mind. It was until his old age that he felt remorseful beyond measure. However, what was the use of him feeling remorseful? Could Elsa get back her youth? Could Sebastian’s mother and Holden come to life? Could Vireo's miserable childhood and teenage years be changed? None of that could be done.

Sebastian and Sabrina had originally agreed to go to Vireo's house to visit Elsa. However, he was occupied with the signing of the contract in the past couple of days, and Sabrina was also busy with the exhibition's matters. Therefore, both of them still have not been able to visit the woman who had lived in misery all her life.

Once Sebastian thought of that, he laughed at himself. He looked at Misty. "Putting aside the fact that I love my wife very much, I absolutely will never have a second woman in my life. Even if I don't love my wife, I will never look for another woman! Because the harm that will be brought onto others and the next generation is too great. Do you know? I originally had three older half- brothers who shared the same father as me, but they never got to live until old age."

Misty suddenly shuddered at his remark. She knew Sebastian had a few older brothers, when they were fighting for the Ford Group, Sebastian had won while all his older brothers suddenly died. She had never felt that Sebastian was vicious. Instead, she felt that Sebastian was decisive. However, at that moment when Misty heard Sebastian talking about his family's unmentionable scandals, Misty could not help but shiver.

"Marry someone good! Love your husband like how he loves you, and never ever think about stealing someone's man again!

Otherwise, just like my father's wife and also my mother, you may not even know how you end up dead!" said Sebastian. After that, he walked straight off.

That was because he saw Sabrina was waving at him next to the car parked not far away. Sabrina had originally wanted to tell him that she would be leaving first. However, Sebastian came to her.

Sabrina did not understand. "That is your big client, she is still injured. As the host, shouldn't you at least send her back to the hotel?"

Sebastian immediately pulled Sabrina into his arms. "She wants to steal your man away from you. Aren't you afraid?"

Chapter 2196 Sabrina smiled. "You're the husband that I've chosen, of course, I’m not afraid."

Her smile was extremely confident and smug. There was also a little bit of playfulness in that smugness.

Sebastian snickered. "Wow! You said you've chosen your husband, but have you actually chosen me? You had run away, alright? I was the one who had spent six years before bringing you back from the ends of the world! Get it straight!"

Both of them already had three children together, and their eldest child was already twelve years old. They were only married for almost seven years, but they truly were like an old married couple. Both of them knew that their relationship was stronger than ever. Therefore, the couple would sometimes poke fun at each other and whatnot. However, Sabrina did not get angry, she already has thick enough skin. Not only was she thick-skinned, but she was thick- skinned enough to feel justified.

Sabrina raised her eyebrows. "That's right! You're the one who had captured and brought me back from a faraway place, but don't you forget that I have had faith in you since the beginning! Don't you forget that I am much tougher than you! You were like the living Hades in South city, but even when I clearly knew that you were the living Hades, I still had to guts drag my duffel bag with me and make a huge scene at your wedding. If I had not liked you back then, then why bother making a scene? Mm-hmm!

Think about it, was it you who first brought me back, or was I the one who had first snatched you away?"

Sebastian left dumbfounded by her remark. If he thought about it carefully, she was right. Indeed! Back then, it was Sabrina who had made trouble at his and Selene's wedding in the first place.

"Mm-hmm! You're right. My wife is indeed tougher than me!" Sebastian had to admit that.

"I'm right, am I?" Sabrina smiled.

"That's right." The man raised his strong arms and wrapped the woman in his arms.

The woman's alluring eyes also turned into crescents as she laughed, she just snuggled in her husband's arms like that.

Misty, who was in a wheelchair not far away from them, had seen everything, she felt that they were not like an old married couple. Rather, they were more like a pair of young lovers who were still love-struck.

After Sabrina was done laughing, she raised her head and saw Misty. She smiled at Misty. "I'm sorry, Miss white. My husband doesn't have many shortcomings. He had been running his company very well. However, the only thing that is slightly bad is that he likes to cling to his wife. He pampers his wife a lot. I hope you don't mind, Miss White."

Misty was speechless. At that moment, her heart was really bleeding, but what was the use of that?

"If you don't wish to collaborate with the Ford Group, then I can now tell you something on behalf of my wife and the entire Ford Group, which is we are willing to pay for compensation. Double of the profit, right? Our estimated gross profit now is one-and-a- half billion dollars. Then, we'll compensate the white Group with three billion dollars. I'm sorry."

What Sabrina said was cryptic, but also very obvious. She was asking her husband to send his client back to the hotel, but she was not letting this client seduce her husband. Sabrina had never easily forgiven any woman who secluded her husband. Misty could tell how determined and serious she was through her words.

"Missus Ford, three billion dollars is not a small sum. If the white Group got an additional three billion dollars for no reason, we might be more powerful than the Ford Group in the future," Misty said, embarrassed.

"Ha!" Sabrina suddenly raised her head and sneered. "Miss white, you're having unrealistic expectations. Or do you not know my husband?"

Misty was speechless.

"Forget about three billion dollars, even if we were to compensate you with thirty billion dollars, my husband will also earn it back!

Also, there's one more thing! Once the Ford Group and the White Group had no relationship with each other anymore, do you think my husband will still be so gentle to the white family? If he didn't need to care about the white family, my husband wouldn't be so merciful. In less than five years, he will be able to have the entire market of the southeastern region in the palm of his

Chapter 2197 "By then, there's no telling if the white family could be safe. After all, business, like war, is an intense fight for survival."

Misty's left dumbfounded and terrified after hearing what Sabrina said.

Sabrina was right. If the Ford Group and the white Group did not have a collaborating relationship, Sebastian would show no mercy to the White Group. Misty could not help but smile bitterly. It was at that moment that she deeply understood that the couple had such strong mutual understanding. Not only was the man strong, but the woman was just as strong. Both of them understood each other very well without the need to put their thoughts in words. They were very united and worked very well together against the others. They were a couple with the best chemistry that Misty had ever seen in this world. Misty had no choice but willingly accept defeat.

Misty raised her head and asked Sabrina, "Do I...look like a naked clown? Did I embarrass myself very badly in public?"

Sabrina shook her head. "No, Miss White. Pull yourself together. There were plenty of women before you who wanted to marry my husband, and many of them had methods way more despicable than yours. You're the woman who has used the gentlest methods I've seen. Don't think about whether you've embarrassed yourself or not. YOu should be thinking about how to develop and let the White family go on, as well as how to find a reliable man with your discerning eye."

Tears were welled up in Misty's eyes. "You-you're right. Thank you. Thank you, Missus Ford."

Sabrina smiled at her, and she did not say anything anymore. Instead, she took her husband's arm, and both of them got into the car. Misty was left alone in a wheelchair as she watched the couple for a very long time.

Tears were streaming down Misty's face without stopping. She did not even know what she was feeling. Was she feeling reluctant to let go of Sebastian? she no longer could find another man like Sebastian in the world anymore. Until that moment, she still wanted to marry him. However, she knew it was impossible. What else was she feeling? Perhaps it was an admiration for the couple. Not only did she admire Sebastian, but she also admired Sabrina. Sabrina was truly a remarkable woman, she was the only one who was worthy of being together with Sebastian. Sabrina's courage and resourcefulness were comparable to Sebastian's.

Misty cried. "She was a woman who came out of prison and dropped out of college, she truly is a marvelous woman to be able to be like this.

She was not wrong at all. Sabrina was indeed a marvelous woman.

Both Sabrina and her husband sat next to each in the car. while driving with one hand, Sebastian was touching Sabrina's hand with the other. He asked Sabrina with a deep and husky voice, "You indeed had great courage to be able to make a scene at the wedding for Selene and me. That also clearly meant that you had a good eye. I'll give you that. However, my dear wife, when did you start to take a fancy to me? Why were you so sure that I'm a good man that is rare to find in this world?"

Sebastian indeed did not understand when Sabrina began to take a fancy to him. Could it also be the same time as him? In fact, he actually began to like her when he first met her and he saw her neat and sharp handwriting.

Sabrina laughed again. "From your attitude towards Selene. I could tell that you hated Selene very much. However, because she saved your life, you insist on marrying her. If it was any other powerful man handling this matter, he would have chosen to settle the matter with money. You, however, didn't. That was enough to show that you're a very responsible man. Also, you're love and care you had given to your mother is not something anybody could do."

There was a pause before Sabrina said again, "Also, the way you run the Ford Group, and your ability to take control of it. In just two months, you managed to stabilize the Ford Group with the slightest sign of wavering at all. That was enough to show that you're a very capable, responsible, and caring person. Doesn't a man with these three merits deserve me to love him?"

Sebastian smiled. "You're the smartest woman I've ever seen.”

Chapter 2198 Sabrina leaned her head against her husband's head. "You're also the smartest man I've ever met because you've married me."

The man was speechless. He did not say anything anymore. He just drove with one hand while handing his wife's hand with the other. Both of them did not say anything, but the feeling of them rubbing their interlocked hands together was a kind of heart-to- heart communication. It was as if they had gotten back the feeling of them dating after they had gotten married seven years ago.

1 Misty was just an episode that had happened between them. However, through this episode, Sabrina and Sebastian's relationship became even stronger. Both of them knew how important the other person was to them. They knew the importance of being of one mind as a married couple. Also, the things that their fathers had done were enough to serve as a lesson to them and make them remember for life that family was of utmost importance. Being honest and loyal to each other was the most important element to strengthen the family.

More than an hour later, their car arrived at their house. All three of their children were home. As soon as Sabrina and Sebastian opened the door, the first person that came into their sight was the 12-year-old Aino. Aino was already as tall as an adult, but she was too thin as her body was still growing. She looked thin, tall, and smart, and she had two little followers by her side. Both of them were raising their heads and watching their sister's every move. Even if their sister were to beat up their parents, they looked like they would also support her. Ha! Sebastian and Sabrina were stunned by the sight.

"How did it go, Mom? Was Misty like a clown at the seminar today? She absolutely could not be compared to you, right? I've got it right, haven't I?" Aino said to her mother in a very smug manner.

Sabrina laughed. "You little thing. You really didn't go easy on her. She still had an ankle splint when she went to the seminar today. But, my child, let me tell you this, even if you hadn’t assisted me, I'm still more than capable of dealing with her. Also, it'll be more interesting for me. This opponent now is not tough at all. In the future, don't lay your hands on the bad people first because you wanted to help me. Do you understand, baby? Because you'll never know how vicious an adult can be. You're still not their match yet. You'll only have to protect yourself well, and I’ll have peace of mind."

Aino nodded happily. "Don't worry, Mom. I only pushed Misty toward the drain because Dad is also present. If Dad and Uncle Kingston are not around, I wouldn't have been so reckless."

"Mm-hmm. My baby is the smartest" Sabrina hugged Aino's head and she wanted to kiss her on her face. However, she never expected that Aino would flee so quickly like a monkey, she just ran off in a flash. It was after she had run faraway that she covered her body while looking at Sabrina.

"Mom, please don't kiss me next time!"

Sabrina was stunned. There was a time when this little thing's favorite reward was the kiss from her mother who came home after work. That was the happiest thing for her. However, this little thing did not let her kiss her anymore at that moment. Sabrina was pissed.

"You! Stop right there!"

Sabrina was about to step forward and start chasing Aino down relentlessly until she gave her a kiss. However, she was unable to move her legs, she looked down and saw two little things, Louie and Chris. Both the brothers were hugging Sabrina's feet each.

"Mom, kiss me."

"Mom, kiss me."

Sabrina was speechless. She bent over and carried the two brothers in her arms with one on each arm. After that, one after the other, she gave Louie and Chris a kiss, she deliberately kissed them very lovingly as she wanted to show it to Aino.

Aino sneered disdainfully. "Sabrina, you're really childish."

Chapter 2199 "You little brat! Do you think I can't get to you? Sebastian, come and give our sons a kiss," Sabrina said.

Sebastian immediately cooperated with Sabrina. He then hugged Sabrina, with their two sons sandwiched in between them, and they kissed their sons lovingly. After that, they even showed off to Aino Aino stood up and then said disdainfully, "Hmph! Who cares! I'm going to chat with my friend."

Aino had recently made a friend online. That online friend was about the same age as Aino and was staying in a town in the mountainous area. Their house was in the mountainous area but was quite well-doing. The environment there was also very beautiful. That online friend often sent pictures of the local scenery to Aino. Aino had hoped to see it for herself, so she planned to travel there during her summer break. She was already able to travel to many places by herself.

The more Aino chatted with her online friend, the happier she got, and she did not notice that her parents were watching her at the door.

"The child has grown up," said Sabrina emotionally.

"Yes, she is a big girl now. We can't control her that much anymore in the future. We have to give her some freedom and let her have the ability to think for herself," Sebastian also said emotionally.

Sabrina pulled Sebastian back to their bedroom. Only then did she say again, "Sebastian, seeing that child is going to be an eighth grader soon, let's let Aino study architecture like me in the future. What do you think? Then she will be able to inherit her grandma's dying wish. Mine as well. My wish is the same as well. I had never graduated from college, which is one regret I have in my life. I hope Aino can get into the best architecture school in the world. I certainly will pass on all of my knowledge to her."

While saying that, Sabrina was already dreaming about it with much longing. "I can already see it now. Fifteen years later, our child will certainly be the best architecture designer in the world. As her mother, how proud I'll be—"

"Can you not impose your ideas on the child?" Sebastian promptly interrupted Sabrina's dream.

Sabrina pursed her lips. "What's the matter? You don't want Aino to study architecture?"

"I do. I want her to study both architecture and business administration. In the future, she will be able to take over the Ford Group. However, these are our ideas as her parents, she has her own ideas. We have to ask her. If she wants to study architecture, we'll give her our full support. But, what if the child wants to run the Ford Group? Also, maybe she won't even want to study architecture or to run the Ford Group. Maybe she wants to be a celebrity or maybe she doesn't want to do anything and just wants to lay around. We'll also support her," Sebastian said.

Sebastian had gone through dangerous environments with crazy bloodshed since the day he was born. He had never tasted the feeling of being happy and free in his life. He had been exiled by the Ford family when he saw a child. All he could think of was that he had to work hard and become a decent person. Later on, he took over the Ford Group. He then put all of his thoughts on managing the group of companies. He had never thought about whether being the man with the highest authority in the Ford Group was something he had liked. He did not know. He actually had no clue about it at all. That was because when he was thinking about this question, he was already an adult. He had never known what his hobbies were during his childhood and teenage years. That was because he never could afford to choose back then. 1 At that moment, he had the ability to let his children have more choices, so he did not wish to interfere with their choice. The only thing he had wished for was that all three of his children could live happily forever. Nothing else mattered.

Sabrina warmly rested her head on her husband's shoulder. " Sebastian, not only are you a good father, but you're also a good husband. I will not interfere with Aino's choice anymore. When we get up tomorrow, we'll ask her what she would like to major in."

Sebastian nodded.

The following day, the couple really asked Aino that question.

Aino looked at her mother, and then her father before she said, " Dad, I..."

Chapter 2200 "What's the matter, baby? You don't want to follow in your mother's footsteps, right? It's fine. It's fine. You can choose yourself.

Whatever you want to study, we'll support you," Sebastian immediately said.

The clever Aino nodded her head. "I want to be like a mother and study architectural design.

Both Sebastian and Sabrina were speechless. Both of them truly never had expected that the child would want to study architectural design.

Aino firmly nodded her head again, "when I was still a very young child, I often went to the construction site with Mom. Life was very hard for her back then, she sometimes even had to wheel my uncle around. I would then be by my uncle's side. I can feel how hard it was for Mom every day. Mom even helped the villagers nearby design their house, and the house that they built was very sturdy. Later on, the reason she had such extensive experience was related to the six years she had spent working at the construction site during that period. Also, there were many minority groups living there, so Mom had studied all about the structures of roundhouses, stilt houses, and so on. That way, her experience got even more extensive. When she was studying stilt houses, wooden houses, roundhouses, I was also very interested. When I get a little older, I want to travel the world and see all the architecture around the world."

At such a young age, she already had her own dreams and plans. Sebastian and Sabrina were incomparably happy as they looked at her. Sabrina, in particular, was very happy. The child that she had brought up was finally a mature girl with her own dreams. How great. When Sabrina was 12, her entire life was gloomy. However, things were different for her children. Once she thought about her life, Sabrina suddenly looked dejected. 1 "Mom, what's the matter?" Aino asked.

"I miss your grandma," said Sabrina.

Aino smiled. "Isn't that easy? Let's go visit grandma now."

It was Sunday that day, anyway, and the children only had to go to school the following day. 1 "I am too busy these days. It's been a long time since I've not visited your grandma," said Sabrina.

"Alright, I’ll go with you to visit your mother," Sebastian immediately said gently.

They then agreed to visit once they spoke about it. After they had their breakfast, the family of five then drove to Gloria's house.

However, they learned that she was not home. Where could she go?

Gloria was usually at home every weekend. It was because Sabrina knew that her mother would be at home that she did not give her a call before she left her house. In the end, her mother was surprisingly not home. If the old lady was not waiting for her grandchildren to visit her at home, then where could she go? Could she have made up with her biological father? Sabrina was a little puzzled.

In the past few days, things between her mother and her grandfather were not as hostile as a few years back. However, her mother has always been very cold to her grandfather. After all, her grandfather had never raised her mother. All of her mother's sufferings were related to her grandfather, and that kind of experience growing up could never be erased. Therefore, it was already very generous of her mother to not hate her grandfather and live in peace with him. Since her mother did not go to her grandfather, then where did he go? Could it be?

Sabrina's eyes lit up, and she happily looked at Sebastian." Sebastian, do you think my mom is seeing someone?"

Sebastian had just gulped down a mouthful of water, but he spewed it all out. It so happened that the two brothers, Louie and Chris, were sitting across from him. Sebastian had sprayed the mouthful of water all over the brothers. Both of them looked at their father very innocently. Immediately after that, they looked at each other. Then, the three fathers and sons burst out laughing uncontrollably.
