'Yet in his eyes, you are nothing but a toy, a slave he had captured.’
Without saying anything else, Sabrina hung up the call.
When he heard the call end, Sebastian suddenly felt like she was hiding something from him.
What happened to her?
Was something wrong?
Just when Sebastian was about to call her back to ask, he noticed a few doctors running toward Old Master Shaw's ward.
His heart skipped a beat, and he immediately rushed back into the ward behind them. When Sebastian finally arrived, he saw the old man lying there with his eyes open wide and foam forming at the corners of his mouth, wheezing as if he couldn’t breathe. After a moment, the doctor fed him some medication before wheeling him into the operation theatre.
As Old Master Shaw was being treated, Sebastian, wanting to find out if there was anything wrong, made a phone call to Sabrina.
Before calling, Sebastian had watched the surveillance video at home again.
This time, there were no signs of Sabrina in the living
room or in Aino's room.
There was no surveillance camera in Sabrina’s bedroom, so Sebastian couldn't check if she was there. When he switched to the camera in his own bedroom, he didn't see Sabrina there either.
Finally, when Sebastian used the camera outside the bathroom, he noticed that the door was left wide open. He quickly pressed zoom on the remote control, and found a woman who had just come out of the bath standing at the basin while applying skincare products on her face.
He started to smile to himself.
That woman was enjoying herself!
However, what Sebastian didn't know was that Sabrina was actually applying cooling ointment to her cheeks. This ointment was gifted to her by the kind doctor who had given her the ice packs. When he was giving it to her, the doctor had told Sabrina that applying the ointment would make her skin recover much faster.
Then, she put on a pair of pajamas after finishing up and dragged her wide slippers back to Sebastian's large bedroom.
Meanwhile, at the hospital, the man watching the surveillance video didn’t say a word as he watched Sabrina throw herself on his bed before wrapping herself in blankets tightly.
