Chapter 1197 Your Face
“Names that mean something?”
“Grandpa would name us after our birth signs. There are four elements: fire, earth, air, and water. The fire signs are Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. Earth signs are Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. Air signs are Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius. And finally, the water signs are Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces,” he explained.
It was true that Jonathan viewed the signs with great importance. He was very careful with the names he had picked out.
That was why the Jadesons had pretty good names.
Sabrina was not really good with her studies during her schooling days, so she was quite lost even after the explanation.
“Then… How will our daughter be named?”
“Besides the birth signs, he would probably also take note of the generation our daughter is in.”
“Really?”
The woman’s eyes widened.
She was stunned, and a strange feeling arose in her heart. Sabrina finally felt like she belonged in the family now.
Her daughter was going to be named by Jonathan after all.
As she was no longer angry, a smile finally appeared on her face.
Around four in the afternoon, the four of them finally decided to head home. Since the roads were too slippery from the snow, they decided to drive one of their cars home and leave the other on the mountain.
Devin was in charge of driving during their journey home. Sasha and Sabrina took the back seat with the baby while Sebastian took the front passenger seat.
“It’s about time already. When are you going to do something about your face?” Sebastian asked suddenly.
His words caught the attention of the women behind. Before Devin could even answer, both of them perked up their ears and looked at the men.
Truthfully, Sasha was the last to find out about this.
Back then, Devin was already going in and out of Red Pavilion with Edmund’s face. Her suspicions arose, so Sebastian had no choice but to tell her the truth.
That was why her eyes had widened the most when she heard her husband’s words.
“What’s wrong with your face? Devin, isn’t it like how I imagined? Don’t you just wear a mask?” She could not help but ask.
However, to her disbelief, the man shook his head.
“No. I changed my face to his.”
The car became deathly silent.
Is he crazy? How can he change his face into someone else’s entirely? Does he not know that there might be a chance that he wouldn’t be able to have his original face back? Does he really think plastic surgery is that easy?
Sasha’s chest heaved in shock.
Sabrina, on the other hand, had reddened eyes, and her hands that were holding the baby started to shake.
She was oblivious to it all.
When Devin had told her about his identity, he had not given her a detailed explanation.
Perhaps it was because he was afraid that it would scare her off. Or maybe it was because he did not want her to worry.
However, he would never know the pain she felt in her heart would always be the same no matter when he confessed the cruel truth.
He has sacrificed so much for our family.
“Don’t worry. Sebastian knows someone who’s really good at it. He’ll turn my face back to normal.”
Devin quickly tried to console the women after seeing their faces through the rearview mirror. He had never expected them to be so nervous about it.
“That’s true. But you need time to heal. If you’re really going to go, we need to make all the necessary arrangements. Things with Silas aren’t completely settled yet, so Edmund can’t disappear without a word.”
“So… You’re saying that he should appear?”
None of them expected him to say something like that.
Shocked, Sasha leaned over and said, “Hold on. Do you mean that the real Edmund isn’t dead?”
“Of course not. He was a classmate of mine. He’s helping me with this, and he’s currently traveling overseas.”
Damn! What the hell is this? This is unbelievable!
Sasha quickly pursed her lips. She had almost cursed out loud.
Before she could say something, a hand reached over to her head and pushed her backward.
“Sit properly. We’re driving.”
“Oh, right. If I leave, are you still going to the White House?” Devin asked suddenly.
Sebastian’s eyebrows furrowed at the question.
Of course he would not want to. That place reeked of seediness. Even though the Ten Medals had been destroyed, a new circle of power would soon be formed with the establishment of the new government.
It was unavoidable.
This meant that the Jadesons needed to stay around now that the corrupted ones had finally been purged.
“I’ll wait for you to return first.”
Sebastian had a look of disgust as he spoke.
At that, Devin smiled.
Who said that he’s cold-hearted?
To him, Sebastian was truly a kind-hearted person. Even though he disliked such things, he would still bear the responsibilities for his family and the people of the country in order to protect the innocent from getting hurt again.
