The door opened. The people who came in were Aino, who was in tears, and Sebastian, who had a on solemn expression. Aino pushed open the door and ran towards Zayn. She jumped into Zayn's arms in an instant. "Uncle Zayn, I'm sorry..."
Zayn was speechless. At that moment, Sebastian walked up to Zayn. "I already know."
"What did you know?" Zayn asked.
"This afternoon, Tessa came to the company and handed in her resignation. She resigned in a hurry, and she did not even want this month’s salary. She just left. Kingston stopped her and asked why, was it related to you, and did you dump her? In the end, she sneered. 'Even if a mountain full of gold and silver was placed in front of me, I also could not live my life like a grass widow without consummation!'"
Seeing Zayn's uneasy expression, Sebastian softened his tone. "What did the doctor say to you? Did he say it's not curable for life?"
When he saw Sebastian, Aino, and Sabrina were all looking at him at once with a guilty and caring expression, Zayn suddenly felt relieved at that moment. He smiled calmly. "Sebastian, I'm really fine. You have to think of it this way. Last year, my legs were still crippled. What was I thinking at that time? A t that time, I thought that as long as my legs could
walk for one more day, then it would be worthwhile even if I were to die. When my legs were crippled, I have never thought about getting married at all, let alone wanting children, having intercourse, and other matters like this.
"It's just that my legs were cured later on and I became increasingly greedy. Now that I think about it, Aino, Sabrina and I could be alive and well, Aino could go to school, Sabrina could be married to you and also get pregnant, I can stand on my legs again, and I even got back the Smith Group. Sebastian, my life is already very fulfilled, and I have not suffered any losses. I will just live an unrestrained life by myself from now on. I will not have a care in the world. How great is that?"
Sebastian sighed, and then raised his arm to pat Zayn on his shoulder. He then said extremely solemnly, " Even if I have to look for all the doctors in the world, I will get you cured! I don't believe you can't be cured!"
"Sebastian..." Zayn was so moved at that moment that he did not know what to say.
Aino cried as she hugged Zayn. "Uncle Zayn, don't worry. You will get a better girlfriend in the future. I have never liked that Tessa girl, and she even dared to dump you! Hmph! What's the big deal! Uncle Zayn, don't be upset anymore.”
The little girl cried harder than her uncle did. She still could not wrap her head around the concept of being infertile. She only knew that her uncle was that handsome, but he was dumped by Tessa, whom she did not like. She felt sorry for her uncle, so she cried.
Seeing Aino felt so sorry for him, Zayn smiled. "Little child! You have never liked Tessa, so everything is going your way now."
"But, she also can't dump you! It’s only alright if you were the one who dumped her," Aino said.
"Pfft...” Zayn was amused by Aino.
Zayn had dinner at Sebastian's house before going back that night. His emotions had also truly calmed down. After all, he had never had much expectations i n the past. He only started to have the idea of getting married in the past couple of months. It was just as if everything had returned to its peaceful state.
However, everything was alright. At the very least, he had gotten to know such a friend like Hana. Aino had quite a good eye. Hana indeed has many similarities t o Sabrina. She did not fight, she had been able to endure everything quietly, but she was very resilient. The only difference was that Hana was more than ten years older than Sabrina. Zayn still wanted to go visit Hana the following day. Although Zayn and Tessa had broken up, Hana was still the person who had saved Zayn's life. 4
Zayn had thought about many things that night. He even reorganized the distribution of his properties again. This time, he intended to divide it into three portions. He wanted to give a portion to Aino and a portion to Sabrina's unborn child in her belly.
