“No!”
Before Sabrina could answer, Devin scooped her into his masculine arms as she struggled with all her
might.
“What are you doing, Devin? Let me go! Put me down right now!”
He had never been so furious. Silently, he walked to the table with Sabrina still in his arms and picked
up their marriage certificate. Then he left the house without a backward glance.
A few minutes later, they were in the car.
His dominance infuriated Sabrina, and she yelled, “Devin Jackson, do you have to be a jerk? Was it fun
to pick up the trash that you’ve dumped?”
Her harsh words were an insult to Devin, and a humiliation to herself.
His knuckles turned white from the tight grip on the steering wheel.
Eventually, he suppressed the pulsing rage and drove straight to the airport with his bride.
Ten minutes later, Sebastian received a text while he was enjoying a cup of freshly brewed coffee
prepared by Sasha in the penthouse suite.
Upon reading the text, he spat a mouthful of coffee onto the computer screen from the shock.
“What’s wrong?” Sasha was sitting by the coffee table. She shifted her gaze from the invitation cards to
Sebastian’s face.
At a loss for words, he tossed his phone onto the table. “Have a look.”
Sasha blinked for a second before she stood up to pick up his phone.
A single glance at the message instantly stole her breath away. She was so shocked that she almost
cursed.
“Have they lost their mind? They got married without telling us!”
Sebastian did not make any comments. He was afraid of losing his temper if he said something.
The couple sat in silence until Luke knocked on the office door and came in to report his progress.
“What should we do now? We’ve been preparing for the wedding ceremony for so long. I’ve already
booked the hotel, a wedding planner, and everything else. What should we do?” Sasha asked.
Sebastian pondered for a moment. “We could make it our wedding.”
Sasha got so angry that she had the urge to kill both Devin and Sabrina.
However, she was worried about Sabrina, who was now in Jadeborough.
She immediately sent the latter a message as soon as she got home. Sab, I heard you and Devin are
married. What’s going on? Are you okay?
However, Sabrina did not reply.
Sasha headed to the kitchen to prepare dinner with Wendy.
“Madam, Vivi said the school is holding a parent-teacher conference. Are you going to attend?”
“A parent-teacher conference?” Sasha was cleaning the shrimps. She instantly lifted her head upon
hearing that.
Wendy nodded. “That’s right. All the elementary schools do that. The kids are starting primary three
soon, so there’ll be some changes in their studies and progress. The purpose of a parent-teacher
conference is to explain those to the parents. I used to attend those for my children too!”
Wendy was born and bred in the city, so she knew how the local education system worked.
Sasha did not send her children to Empire Elementary. Instead, she sent them to the local public
school, which was also the district’s elementary school.
She wanted them to live a normal life and learn more from their experiences.
It was a trend widely embraced by wealthy families.
Sasha had never been to any parent-teacher conference, so she could not help feeling anxious. “That’s
such an important meeting. Perhaps I should discuss it with Sebastian and decide who would be
going.”
“All right,” Wendy answered with a warm smile. Madam is perfectly capable of attending on her own.
She used to shoulder all the responsibilities back then when Mr. Hayes wasn’t there with her. Now that
she has finally found someone to take care of the children and her, she’ll naturally rely on him more.
The women busied themselves in the kitchen. As soon as Sasha walked out, she noticed Sabrina had
finally replied to her text.
He’s a crazy man!
Dumbfounded, Sasha sent another text: Aren’t you happy?
Sabrina: Why should I? Should I be grateful because he finally wants to marry me?
Her words were curt. Sasha did not know what to reply.
However, she could tell that Sabrina was not willing to marry Devin. That’s reasonable. After all, it’s
difficult for her to forget about what happened in Yaleview.
Finally, Sasha sent a message to Janice, who was now in Jadeborough. With that, she finally
understood the ins and outs of everything.
Later that night, she told Sebastian about what she had heard from Janice. “Aunt Janice said Sab was
already pregnant when Devin brought her back to Oceanic Estate. Her baby bump was quite obvious,
so she probably did not go for the abortion.”
