Emboldened, the other housemaids echoed Cleo’s sentiments.
However, Sabrina’s gaze earlier was indeed so scary that made everyone zip their mouths after casting
a glance on the ground at the injured housemaid.
Meanwhile, Rosie was silent for a long moment.
More than ten seconds passed before the middle-aged woman—whose face contorted with fury—
finally hissed through gritted teeth, “I’ll never allow her to marry into the Sheerwood family!”
Then, she stormed off in a fit of pique.
That afternoon, Isaac, who had gone out to make preparations for the wedding banquet, came home.
Right after he heard about the incident upon his return, he hastily sprinted upstairs in search of Sabrina
with no time to bother about his mother, who was complaining to him tearfully.
“Are you okay, Sabrina? I heard that you got into an altercation with the maids this morning. Did they
hurt you anywhere?”
Hmm? He’s actually not reprimanding me right away for wreaking havoc in his family home but is
concerned about whether I’m hurt instead?
At that moment, Sabrina had her phone in hand and was chatting with Sasha. When she heard him
asking such a question after barging in, Sabrina placed her phone down.
“No.”
“Phew! I’m glad to hear that!”
Sure enough, the man promptly patted himself on the chest and let out a sigh of relief.
“Let me tell you something. Next time, don’t personally make a move when such a thing happens. Wait
for me to come home and tell me. I’ll teach them a lesson on your behalf. You’re with child now; it won’t
do you any good if you get hurt.”
After pouring himself a glass of water and guzzling it down in one go, he couldn’t help but start telling
her to mind her safety.
Throughout it all, Sabrina listened to him silently.
When the man was about to sit down a long while later, she picked up the jug on the table and refilled
his empty glass.
Startled, Isaac was rendered speechless for a long time.
He merely stared at her in a daze, unsure of what to do.
This is the first time she has ever poured me water! No, no. Let me rephrase: this is the first time she
has ever taken the initiative to do something for me!
“S-Sabrina…”
“When are we going to register our marriage? I’ve already asked Sasha to mail my personal
documents over; they should be arriving tomorrow,” Sabrina inquired placidly after putting the jug down.
Huh?
Isaac was so worked up that he almost shot to his feet in excitement.
“Y-You’re willing to marry me? That’s wonderful! We’ll go and register right away after your documents
are delivered!”
“Okay.”
Sabrina nodded in acquiescence.
In actual fact, it wasn’t the Sheerwood family that forbade them from registering their marriage. Instead,
the delay was caused by Sabrina lacking the correct documents for the registration.
And what was the reason for the delay? Probably Sabrina herself knew best.
On the other hand, at Frontier Bay in Avenport, Sasha had mixed feelings when she finally mailed out
the said documents.
“Sebby, say, why didn’t Sab want me to personally bring her household register? Also, why didn’t she
notify me when she has already come back?”
Sasha purposely went to look for Sebastian in his office to discuss that matter.
Sebastian was busy with work then, so he didn’t even raise his head upon hearing that question of
hers. “She’s not a kid; why would she come to you for everything?”
“But she doesn’t have any experience in this matter, does she?”
“Haha, so you have experience, then?”
The man finally lifted his eyes and peered at her.
Sasha was left without a retort.
I… indeed don’t have experience, either. Back when I married him, I was only eighteen years old and
knew nothing. It was Frederick who handled everything. I only made a trip to the civil affairs office when
registering our marriage. But even so, my wedding photo…
All of a sudden, she recalled her photoshopped wedding photo. Immediately, an inexplicable sense of
disgruntlement rose within her.
“Come here.”
“Huh?”
Sasha was stunned for a moment as she eyed the man who had suddenly put aside his work and
beckoned at her to go over to him.
Go over to him? What for?
Still, she went over.
“What is it?”
“Come over here.”
To her surprise, the man actually wanted her to walk past his desk since he was pointing right at where
he was sitting.
With that, Sasha grew all the more perplexed.
Nevertheless, she obliged and walked right in front of him.
Suddenly, Sebastian’s massive hand wrapped around her slender waist and pulled her into his lap.
“Ahh!”
Frightened, her eyes abruptly grew as wide as saucers.
“W-What are you doing? This is your office and someone might come in!”
“So what? You’re my wife. It’s not against the law for me to hug you, is it?”
The man turned out to feel nary an ounce of embarrassment. As he hugged her brazenly, she felt his
sexy, masculine vibe, which made her face flush bright red and her heart pound wildly.
Ugh! It’s not against the law but it’s so embarrassing!
Sasha could only cover her blushing face. Then, she glowered at him in disapproval. “What exactly do
you want?”
In response, the man arched an eyebrow. “Nothing much. I just suddenly remembered when I said you
have no experience that I don’t, either. How about we do it as well?”
“Huh?”
That remark was too sudden; Sasha did not understand what he was trying to say at first.
“Do it? What… does that mean?”
“Get married, of course.” Sebastian looked into her eyes. “I’ve never gotten married, so how about you
do it with me again, Darling?”
Sasha was instantly struck dumb. At that moment, it felt as though the air had stopped moving as well.
