"Listen!" The man's low mellow, and cold voice articulated the following few words. "Barge into my room without permission again, you're dead!"
Sabrina looked like a lost deer, her long curly eyelashes fluttered rapidly, and she nodded her head with all her might.
The man turned around and picked up the emerald green bracelet from the bedside table. He then carried Sabrina, pushed the door open, entered Sabrina’s room and placed her down. After that, he put the bracelet back on her wrist and said, "Wear it tomorrow to visit my mother, she would be happier."
"I...got it." Her tiny and faint voice was caught in her throat as she answered him warily.
The man turned around and left.
Sabrina then flew to have the room door closed and leaned her whole weight on the door. Her legs no longer have the strength to support her, so she dropped onto the floor and breathed heavily.
She felt like she had walked through the gates of hell.
Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.
After she calmed herself down, she took off her wedding dress and crystal heels, and washed up before going to bed.
The following day was going to be her first day at work, so she must be in good shape.
Sabrina got up early and went to visit Grace the next morning. She deliberately showed Grace the bracelet with a bashful expression on her face.
Grace was indeed happy to see it.
Sabrina accompanied her to talk for a while and then wanted to leave. "Mom, I have to go to work today, so I couldn't accompany you, but I would see you again in the evening."
"Sabbie, you are only on your second day of marriage, why are you going to work?" Grace asked, puzzled.
Sabrina pretended to be angry and said, "Mom! Who told you to swoop in and gave me a wedding without telling me first? I've just found a job, and it's architectural design, which is what I like, and you know it’s my dream too."
"Alright, alright, alright, I congratulate you for finding a job you like, go to work and remember to come and talk to mom after work," Grace replied in a very doting tone.
Sabrina went to report to her new company without any problems.
As Nigel— who sent her back yesterday—said, after Sabrina arrived, the leader of the design department sent her to a construction site in the suburbs in South city. The person said it was to allow Sabrina to adapt for a while, but Sabrina was sent there to do odd jobs o n the site in reality.
However, Sabrina was extremely happy.
She was on a salary of an Architectural Assistant, which was a much higher pay than general workers o n site. As long as she worked for a full month, she would be able to get her salary, and then she could do a second pregnancy check. She would also have enough to pay for a ticket back to her hometown to investigate her mother’s cause of death.
Therefore, Sabrina did not care how tough the work would be.
Sabrina worked odd jobs at the construction site for three consecutive days.
She had to make a trip to visit Grace every morning, went for her manual work during the day, and revisit Grace after work. Hence, after three consecutive days, she was so tired that she did not want to eat dinner and fell asleep the minute she laid in bed.
When she woke up the next day, she realized that her time to leave the house was nearly an hour later than yesterday. Sabrina quickly got up to clean up, and ran straight to catch the bus to the hospital. At the hospital, she could only spend a little time with Grace before heading to the construction site.
She got off the bus and ran to the construction site at full speed to not be late and leave an initial good impression on her boss.
When she was almost at the place, she collided with a stranger.
"Sorry, I’m sorry, I'm in a hurry," Sabrina hastily apologized and left in a hurry.
The man she bumped was Hayes.
Hayes looked at Sabrina's back with a sinister smile o n his face. "I've been looking for you for a few days, and I can't believe I bumped into you here!"
