However, now, nobody would have expected power would be incomparably great when she resisted. It was so powerful that Old Master Shaw was stuttering a s he said, "You...you...you are bullying others by relying on the strength and power of someone else! You demon! You're an outlander who only desperately wanted to climb the social ladder above where you should be! You're nothing more than a nobody with Sebastian backing you up...”
"Enough!" Sabrina suddenly teared up. No matter how resolved she was, when she heard Old Master Shaw calling her a demon and an outlander, Sabrina could not help but feel hurt. Could it be that she just does not deserve kinship in this lifetime? Her beloved parents have passed away, as well as her closest relatives. Could it be that she had to be treated this way?
Sabrina swallowed the bitterness in her heart. She sneered and said very unrelentingly, "Old Master Shaw! It's your business to think however you want of me. However, I will not give you a chance to fantasize! The reason why I did not resist every time before this, and I let you abuse and bully me was not that I wanted to rely on my husband's power. Rather, I didn’t know whether he loved me or not. If a person doesn’t love m e, then what's the use of me relying on him? All those times, I had endured all your bullying because I
wanted to protect my child. I want to give my daughter a good family.
But now, my husband loves me so much and my child i s adorable. Old Master Shaw, do you think I will be foolish enough to give my happy life and hand it over freely to your granddaughter?"
Old Master Shaw was speechless. After a moment, only then he called out to Sebastian in rage out of humiliation. "Sebastian... Sebastian! I want a word from you! What exactly do you think? Since you don't want to marry Selene, then why did you give her such a big empty promise, and why did you customize such a high-end and extravagant evening dress for her? Say it!"
Sebastian pursed his lips and looked at his wife. His wife truly was incredible! He finally understood why she could be pregnant, but was still able to hide from the Lynn family's deadly pursuit while she brought the paraplegic Zayn along with her. Her survivability and resistance were absolutely top-notch.
Sebastian spoke steadily. "Grandpa Shaw, your health i s really not suitable for stimulations anymore. I hope you don't get overstimulated."
Old Master Shaw was left speechless with his jaw wide open.
Sebastian spoke again. "I have never promised you that I would exchange anything with you. You just said it yourself that you wanted to join forces with me, and you wanted me to give you a hand. However, you had a condition, and that is to have me divorce my wife. Old Master Shaw, let me ask you, have I agreed to your condition?”
Old Master Shaw was speechless. Sebastian indeed did not promise him. This offer was given to
Sebastian by him. Before he got an exact answer from Sebastian, his granddaughter, Selene, told him with great enthusiasm, "Grandpa, Sebastian ordered me a dress, the most expensive dress in the entire South City. It’s for me to wear on the day of the family banquet, Grandpa. The diamond embellishments alone on this dress is worth more than one million dollars. Grandpa, you truly are very well-respected. As soon as you spoke to Sebastian, he immediately divorced Sabrina."
Just because Sebastian ordered this dress worth two million dollars for Selene, the Shaw and Lynn family all assumed that Sebastian would definitely divorce Sabrina.
At this moment, Selene spoke up. She had her face covered in tears. "Master Sebastian, since you don’t have the meaning to divorce Sabrina, then why did you customize such a costly dress for me? Why would you let me wear such a pretty dress that allows me to overwhelm the scene with my beauty?"
Sebastian lightly rebuked, “Do you think you could overwhelm the scene with your beauty wearing this dress? Don't you think your excess fats are almost bleeding out from being tightly constrained? Don't you think the dress will still pile at your feet when you put it on, even after you have cut off ten centimeters of it? Don't you think you look extremely out of place wearing this dress, and you look extremely ugly?"
Selene felt very disappointed and upset in her heart, and her voice was trembling. "What do you mean?"
Sebastian's voice was flat and cold. "Because this was originally supposed to be for my wife, Sabrina."
