Mary stared at Sebastian, tongue-tied, "You...Leader... what are you saying?" She realized her tongue was rolled up in her mouth and would not unfurl no matter how hard she tried.
Sebastian repeated himself, "What did you say my wife was earlier?"
"I...I..." Mary stuttered and did not dare to speak anymore. She looked at her husband Sean, and he too was shocked stupid.
The small crowd gathered behind Sebastian were also shocked stupid.
Mary turned and looked at Sabrina, then said to Sebastian, "This...this...woman...no..,no...I mean...I don’t know your wife...What I meant to say was...this woman, since young...she had been stealing since she was twelve....and...later on, she quit school and headed down south, she...had been selling...selling..."
"She's my wife." Sebastian interrupted Mary.
Plop! Mary fell to the floor in a heap.
She did not know the man in front of her, but she had seen the Ford Group's official website. She even asked Coral for confirmation, and Coral told her those were all gimmicks to trick the public. However, now, looking at this man's force and the group of key members of the business world entertaining the man,
she could tell the man standing in front of her was Sebastian Ford.
Sabrina was Sebastian's wife.
The news on the official website was not only a gimmick. It was real.
Big droplets of sweat dripped down Mary’s forehead. Her sweat wetting her freshly-styled hair. The oil on her hair, hair wax and sweat flowed down her face and mixed with her exquisite makeup.
Her makeup was destroyed in a matter of seconds.
Her sweat mixed with her colored eyeshadow at the corner of her eyes and flowed downward. Yeah, she looked like the typical female ghost.
Aino had grown used to scenes like this by now, merely muttering, "Daddy, why are there so many female ghosts in this world?”
