Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 989

That reminded Sabrina of her mother again. Those eyes she found outside their area were dazed, and even though Sabrina couldn't see her face, she was certain that those were the eyes of her mother. The thought of what her mother had been going through pierced through her heart like a sharp blade. She went off the shower in silent sorrow, not even bathing Aino could help brighten up her mood. The child noticed her mother's struggle and decided to remain quiet as well. After they had showered, Sabrina tucked Aino in for a short nap and she slowly drifted off to sleep after Aino. She was exhausted, but couldn't seem to find peace in sleep.

Sebastian, too, was tired but he had no time to rest. After seeing that Sabrina and Aino had gone to sleep, h e went to his study to work. It's been half a month since he showed up at the office. Everything was operating as per usual, with only the documents that were pending to be approved piling up in an electronic drive. After handling them all, it was about time for dinner and so he stepped out of the study, only to find Aino sitting at the dining area by herself.

"Where's Sabrina?" he asked Aunt Lewis.

Before Aunt Lewis could respond, Aino shushed him and said, "Daddy, Mommy is too tired. Let her rest for a while. We can just heat the dishes up for her again when she wakes up."

Sebastian stroked his daughter’s cheek gently. "Hm, whatever Aino says. What a considerate girl."

He then took his seat at the dining table and fed Aino himself. "You need to eat well. Eat more, so that you can grow faster and bigger, and then you can protect your Mommy. She is suffering so much."

Aino nodded. During dinner that night, the six-year-old was exceptionally obedient. After finishing dinner with her father, she took the initiative to suggest." Daddy, you should go take a look at Mommy, Grandma Lewis can play with me.

Sebastian nodded, before heading towards the bedroom. Sabrina was still curled up on the bed, unmoving. He approached gingerly, thinking that she was still asleep, only to find her pillow half-soaked. She hadn't been sleeping, she had been crying the entire time. He felt as though his heart had been torn apart by that realization, as he pulled her close and wrapped his arms tightly around her.

Unable to hold back any longer, Sabrina started mumbling, "I'm sorry, Sebastian, I'm sorry. I didn't want Aino to see me this upset, I didn't want to scare her, so when she came in, I pretended to be asleep. My mom is just so tortured, and yet those people who hurt her, the Lynn Family that took everything from her, are still living their lives in peace. But what about my mom? She was wandering out there on the street when it was pouring. I...I can't take this anymore, Sebastian...."

"I'm sorry..." Sebastian's heart was heavy with guilt. H e held Sabrina with one arm and reached the other out to grab his phone.

"Sebastian, who are you calling?" she asked, confused. At first, she thought that he was calling Kingston to ask him to help in finding her mother and was about t o stop him. After all, Kingston must have been exhausted from all the traveling and needed time to rest or to go home to see his family.

To her surprise, Sebastian spoke as soon as the call was connected. "First thing tomorrow morning, bring Selene and the old Master Shaw to the hospital and force them into taking a paternity test! I want black and white results that I can convince the old Master Shaw with! Once the results are out, kill Selene on the spot-"

"Sebastian...!" Sabrina interrupted him by snatching the phone away and ending the call forcefully.
