Holden was speechless. Before he could react in time, Zayn had already hung up the call. He huffed in anger and told Sabrina. "Don’t pick up the call from this kind of person in the future! Block his number directly when you see it! This is not a local number, so you can tell at a glance. Why did you pick up his call and let yourself get angry?”
Sabrina did not tell Zayn that the person calling was Sebastian's younger brother, after all. He was Sebastian's twin younger brother, who was also Grace's other family. Grace did not get to meet her youngest son before she passed away. That kind of regret, discontentment, and misery was something only Sebastian and Grace knew. Even such a vicious and cold man like Sebastian had been making concessions for this younger brother of his, so how could she not understand her husband?
However, at that moment, Sabrina did not say anything to Zayn. Her eyes were fixed on Zayn without blinking, and she asked in a very uneasy tone. "Zayn, you...what did you say to Holden? You're practically a castrated man? What...do you mean? You ...didn’t you go together with Tessa...to get your marriage certificate this morning? Where is...Tessa?"
Sabrina did not see Tessa coming over. She already knew the answer, but she could not accept it. She just looked straight at Zayn without blinking, and before
Zayn could answer, Sabrina's tears had already come streaming down her face.
"Zayn, what is the matter...with your health check this morning?”
Zayn shook his head miserably. Following that, he saw that there was a pair of onyx earrings on the coffee table on the balcony. He then laughed in a self-deprecating manner. "Sabrina, that pair of onyx earrings are worth at least tens of millions of dollars, right? I remember Zayn brought it back from Barfait Summit?"
"Zayn!"
"But we can save it now! The stuff that is worth tens of millions doesn't have to be given to your sister-in-law. Because you don't have a sister-in-law anymore. Your brother, me, is not getting married anymore!"
"Zayn..." Sabrina's tears were gushing down her face. She even got angry. "Zayn, are you trying to let me die of anxiety? What exactly is going on? How did you... become a castrated man? You...can't function in that aspect anymore? Did the doctor tell you that in the morning after your health check? Was it because of this that Tessa broke up with you as well?"
Zayn shook his head. "Sabrina, do you believe me? I actually...didn't fancy Tessa that much because I kept feeling there's a generation gap...between us. Isn’t it better now that we're separated?"
Although Zayn had been brushing her off by talking about other things, Sabrina has understood it. Then, a sense of guilt emerged in her heart. "Zayn, was it because you broke your legs in those years when you were on the run with me, and that affected your ability in that aspect?"
Zayn smiled. "It’s fine. Sabrina. It's fine. Look, you will soon give birth again. I have Aino, your newborn babies, and I still have a biological sister..."
"Zayn, I'm sorry." Sabrina sobbed uncontrollably.
"I have never blamed you for it. The fact that we, me, you, as well as Aino, can still be alive and also for me t o be able to stand on my legs again, it's already a blessing from God. I am already very content.”
"I am so sad..." Sabrina covered her face as she was unbearably miserable.
"Don’t cry anymore. It's not good for your baby. Be good." Zayn squatted and comforted Sabrina.
At that moment, the door outside suddenly slammed open. Zayn was startled and just like Sabrina from before, he suddenly scolded sternly. "Who banged on the door?"
