"Master Sebastian..." Selene wanted to cry but did not dare to, which made her face looked even uglier. "I knew you don't like me, and I'm the one who was reaching above my station for you. I would not appear i n front of you again.”
Selene turned around and left.
Sebastian unexpectedly grabbed her arm.
He was feeling more disgusted by Selene.
However, there was a sense of responsibility. Selene once saved his life with her body, so that made him swallow all the disgust he had and tried his best to soften his tone instead. "How did your face become like that?" 1
Selene had two rows of tears streamed down in grievance and shook her head.
“Speak!" Sebastian said impatiently.
"My...My mom slapped me," Selene said honestly.
"Mm?"
Selene tremblingly said, "Your... Your mother sent someone to get my mother and me over. She said she wanted to... to avenge her daughter-in-law, so she asked my mom to... slap my face. If my mom didn’t slap me, then your mother would... ask two men to hit my face with the soles of their shoes, a hundred times
each."
Sebastian was speechless.
Over the years, his mother had been plotted against several times when she was in the Ford family. This forced his mother, who was initially gentle and weak, t o learn a few tactics to protect him. Sebastian knew very well in his heart that his mother could do such a thing when Selene described the incident.
"Young Master Sebastian, you...Don’t blame your mother. In her heart, Sabrina was her rightful daughter -in-law, and I... was nothing. Your mother did not know that I saved you with my own body." 4
"Besides, to the Ford family, a woman's body is really nothing worthy."
"Therefore, it’s alright, Young Master Sebastian."
