The next day.
When Sasha woke up, Sebastian was no longer beside her. The morning sun illuminated the room, bathing it with its golden rays.
What time is it?
When she tried to move, she realized her body was aching all over, causing her to feel like sleeping in.
“Mommy, are you awake yet?”
“Hush, mommy is exhausted from last night. We better not disturb her. Let’s get Daddy to send us to school instead.”
Outside the door, the children discussed among themselves after having observed the situation briefly.
Consequently, Sasha blushed when she heard them.
Getting out of bed quickly, she was about to open the door when she heard Sebastian’s voice ring out from downstairs.
“Matt, Ian, bring Vivi down. I’m taking all of you to school.”
“Alright, Daddy.”
The brothers led their sister down right away, causing Sasha to heave a sigh of relief.
After washing up leisurely, Sasha changed and headed downstairs. However, there was no sign of the children. All she saw was Lance tidying up the living hall.
“Sha, you’re awake.”
“Mmm-hmm. Are you heading to the office today? Please wait for me. I’ll come along with you once I finish breakfast.”
When Sasha saw that Lance had packed his briefcase, she asked him to wait for her.
After all, they could carpool to the office since there were only two of them.
However, Lance shook his head.
“Sebastian said that he will be driving you there.”
“Sebastian?” Sasha was surprised. “Why? Didn’t he send the children to school?”
“He did. He also said that he will return and pick you up. Sha, since it’s rare for him to be so enthusiastic, you should not reject his offer. Anyway, I’m going off first.”
Picking up his bag, Lance slipped out quickly, leaving Sasha dumbfounded.
Sebastian wants to send me to work?
Given how illustrious he is, I’m surprised that he wants to be my driver.
Sasha was curious at the sudden attention.
At that moment, Sabrina called.
“Hello, Sasha? Have you thought of a plan? Where are we going to find tens of billions?”
“I don’t know. I haven’t thought of anything yet,” Sasha snapped after being annoyed by the reminder.
After all, she had not come up with a plan.
This involves tens of billions and not just tens or hundreds of millions. Where am I going to find so much money?
Even if she was a genius in finance, there was no way she could find that amount of money in such a short time.
“What are we going to do? If you don’t come up with the funds, the share transfer agreements will fall into that jerk’s hands. Do you want to see your man’s assets taken over by another person?”
“You…”
Sabrina didn’t mince her words at all. Instead of referring to him as her brother, she called him Sasha’s man instead, causing Sasha to fume.
After ending the call, she pondered about the situation and decided to make a last-ditch effort to salvage the situation. She called Andy who was at Wall Street in Moranta.
“Andy, it’s Nancy. I need your help. I wonder if you could lend me ten billion?”
“What did you just say? Nancy, did you hit yourself on the head?”
Andy felt that she was crazy to make such a ludicrous request.
Even she admitted that it was preposterous.
After ending the call, Sasha felt frustrated the entire morning.
Meanwhile, Sebastian returned after an hour. When he entered the compound, he saw the rare sight of Sasha cupping her face and spacing out by sitting the staircase.
He was briefly stunned.
“Darling, what’s wrong? Did something happen? What’s with the grim expression?”
“Huh?”
Sasha, who had been wallowing in her frustration, finally regained her senses.
“You’re back. How was the trip to school? Did you have any problems since you haven’t been there in a while?”
The first thing that came to her mind was to ask about the children.
Sebastian sat down next to her.
The glorious afternoon sun reflected off her black hair in a shimmering glaze. Its rays illuminated her exquisite features with its golden rays.
“No, it’s not like they changed schools. Why would I have problems at the same place?”
He casually replied while combing her hair.
Only then was Sasha reassured by his words.
Although Frederick had kicked his son out and cut off Sebastian’s access to any financial resources, she was relieved that the children were unaffected by it.
They could continue living their lives without any difficulty.
“What about you? Why are you just sitting there?”
Suddenly, an idea flashed within Sasha’s mind. She carefully asked, “It’s… nothing. I was just bothered by work. By the way, I have a question for you. When you were in Hayes Corporation, did you ever need to come up with a huge sum of money on short notice?”
Oh my, how could I forget about him?
I have one of the savviest businessmen standing right in front of me. Given that he had grown Hayes Corporation to the giant it is today, is there any problem he can’t solve?
Sasha held her breath in suspense.
