He turned around to look at Sabrina, who was not aware of what had happened, and snorted in his mind. This was the kind of man his father was. He had made many unforgivable mistakes when he was young. Not only had he hurt his mother, his brother and him in the past, he refused to leave Sabrina alone i n the present. Sabrina had been right by his side, or stayed with Jane for the past two weeks, how could she find the time to seduce men outside?
His tone had only grown colder when he said," Anything else?"
"Of course there is! That man of hers-"
Sebastian ended the call abruptly.
Seeing that her man had such difficulties in making peace with his father, she was worried. "Sebastian, can't you be a little bit more patient when you communicate with your father?"
Sebastian pulled her into his arms and stared at her for a long while, before planting a kiss on her forehead.
She looked up at him. "What happened? Tell me, so that I can help share the burden."
He studied the indestructible woman in his arms.
After all the suppression she had faced from the old Master Shaw, she had not once asked that he break ties with the old Master Shaw out of consideration for
him. Sometimes, he felt that instead of providing her with a sense of security and support to eliminate all of those who had wronged her, she was actually the one thing that he held onto emotionally. She seemed fragile but she never gave up. No matter how hard life became, she never gave up on herself. Six years ago, when she was in the depth of poverty with an unborn child, she survived even if she had no place to go for nights at a time. On top of that, she managed to save Nigel from a disaster fearlessly, when she could barely take care of herself. She had been in a much more dangerous situation compared to when Nigel rescued her and Aino. It was no wonder that Nigel would remain in love with her over time, because it was her soul that tamed him completely.
Zayn, too, was the same. Right before heading to Star Island, Sebastian had talked to Zayn on the phone. His legs had recovered for the most part, and showed concern over anything during that phone call. Anything, but Sabrina.
He asked Sebastian, "Master Sebastian, I want to know if Sabrina and Aino are doing well."
At the time, Sebastian replied sternly, "Sabrina loves m e, and Aino is very close to me as well. Keep thinking about my wife and daughter and I'll destroy those nerves on your legs, just as easily as I did connecting them."
On the other end of the line, Zayn retorted fearlessly, "S o what if my legs are destroyed? You can go on and do it right now, Master Sebastian, destroy me and I'll still crawl my way back to Sabrina and Aino. If only I can see Sabrina and Aino settle down in peace with no need to be scared anymore, my life would be complete even if I have to amputate my legs."
"Don't you treasure your own life? That's not who you were when you were hanging out with Nigel back then! H
"It's because of Sabrina. I saw the charm in her and swore that I would protect her for the rest of my life!"
At that very moment, Sebastian couldn't tell if he was touched or jealous. His woman was born a magnet for men's affection, but he couldn't seem to bring himself t o hate these men.
Suddenly, Sabrina's phone rang and she answered," Hello?"
On the other side, a man's voice deep in despair and sorrow came through. "Sabrina, how...are you doing?"
