"By then, there's no telling if the White family could be safe. After all, business, like war, is a n intense fight for survival."
Misty's left dumbfounded and terrified after hearing what Sabrina said.
Sabrina was right. If the Ford Group and the White Group did not have a collaborating relationship, Sebastian would show no mercy t o the White Group. Misty could not help but smile bitterly. It was at that moment that she deeply understood that the couple had such strong mutual understanding. Not only was the man strong, but the woman was just as strong. Both of them understood each other very well without the need to put their thoughts in words. They were very united and worked very well together against the others. They were a couple with the best chemistry that Misty had ever seen in this world. Misty had no choice but willingly accept defeat.
Misty raised her head and asked Sabrina, "Do I ...look like a naked clown? Did I embarrass myself very badly in public?"
Sabrina shook her head. "No, Miss White. Pull yourself together. There were plenty of women before you who wanted to marry my husband, and many of them had methods way more despicable than yours. You're the woman who has used the gentlest methods I've seen. Don't think about whether you've embarrassed yourself or not. YOu should be thinking about how to develop and let the White family go on, as well as how to find a reliable man with your discerning eye."
Tears were welled up in Misty's eyes. "You-you're right. Thank you. Thank you, Missus Ford."
Sabrina smiled at her, and she did not say anything anymore. Instead, she took her husband's arm, and both of them got into the car. Misty was left alone in a wheelchair as she watched the couple for a very long time.
Tears were streaming down Misty's face without stopping. She did not even know what she was feeling. Was she feeling reluctant to let go of Sebastian? She no longer could find another man like Sebastian in the world anymore. Until that moment, she still wanted t o marry him. However, she knew it was impossible. What else was she feeling? Perhaps it was an admiration for the couple. Not only did she admire Sebastian, but she also admired Sabrina. Sabrina was truly a remarkable woman. She was the only one who was worthy of being together with Sebastian. Sabrina's courage and resourcefulness were comparable to Sebastian's.
Misty cried. "She was a woman who came out of prison and dropped out of college. She truly is a marvelous woman to be able to be like this.
She was not wrong at all. Sabrina was indeed a marvelous woman.
Both Sabrina and her husband sat next to
each in the car. While driving with one hand, Sebastian was touching Sabrina's hand with the other. He asked Sabrina with a deep and husky voice, "You indeed had great courage to be able to make a scene at the wedding for Selene and me. That also clearly meant that you had a good eye. I'll give you that. However, my dear wife, when did you start to take a fancy to me? Why were you so sure that I'm a good man that is rare to find in this world?"
Sebastian indeed did not understand when Sabrina began to take a fancy to him. Could it also be the same time as him? In fact, he actually began to like her when he first met her and he saw her neat and sharp handwriting.
Sabrina laughed again. "From your attitude towards Selene. I could tell that you hated Selene very much. However, because she saved your life, you insist on marrying her. If it was any other powerful man handling this matter, he would have chosen to settle the matter with money. You, however, didn't. That was enough to show that you're a very responsible man. Also, you're love and care you had given to your mother is not something anybody could do."
There was a pause before Sabrina said again," Also, the way you run the Ford Group, and your ability to take control of it. In just two months, you managed to stabilize the Ford Group with the slightest sign of wavering at all. That was enough to show that you're a very capable, responsible, and caring person. Doesn't a man with these three merits deserve me to love him?"
Sebastian smiled. "You're the smartest woman I've ever seen."
