Sebastian glanced over at Sabrina and her expression remained calm. He then turned to study every single person at the scene and found a variety of expressions on each of their faces. Sean and Rose seemed extremely confident, Jennie and Lori's faces showed the kind of ecstasy that they were apparently trying everything they could, but failing, to conceal. Marcus was gaping at what he heard.
"How is that possible? How could someone like Sabrina keep two men out there? How could it be? She had lived with Zayn throughout the six years when she was on the run, but the two treated each other as siblings, without crossing the line even once. Now that Sabrina's life has finally settled into peacefulness and happiness, why would she go out there looking for other men? Does this even make sense?" Marcus muttered as though he was speaking to himself, when actually he was questioning Sean's accusation.
Sean ignored Marcus and focused on staring at his own son, as Sebastian observed everyone's expressions. He turned his attention from Marcus to Gloria and spotted the frustration and determination t o give her life when needed on her face. Gloria stared daggers at the old Master Shaw with tears in her eyes. Even when Sean was the one who actually said those words, the old Master Shaw was still the person that she hated most in the room.
'That damn geezer! He really is a man who says one thing and does another! He claimed that his heart was filled with remorse just over a month ago and now, he i s sitting right there, ready to condemn his own granddaughter. This bloodsucking leech! If he dares to harm Sabrina in any way, I am going to bite him to death immediately! It's just patricide, what's wrong with it?? I am going to commit patricide!' she thought, all the while feeling the urge to drain every last drop o f blood from the old Master Shaw.
Sebastian studied Gloria's expression quietly, before lifting his gaze from her and moving on to his daughter Aino.
Aino's eyes were filled with unshed tears and the heartache she felt for the injustice her mother was facing. Her eyes were fearless, and the little thing seemed ready to jump at her own grandfather at any moment.
Sebastian then glanced over at his grandparents and found them observing the situation as though they were not involved, especially his grandfather Henry. Six years ago, Henry was still very much of a dictator when he had just turned ninety, and now he had really aged to the point that he had lost all capability to fight. Needless to say, the old Madam Ford, too, was on the same path as her husband. The family gathering o n this day that was meant to be the intervention for Sabrina seemed to have nothing to do with the old couple.
