Sasha could finally prepare dinner in peace, but her peace of mind was transient.
She still had to deal with Devin.
Little did she know, that man was actually with Sebastian right now.
“I’m sorry, Sebastian. I let my emotions get the better of me earlier on. I shouldn’t have said that.”
Sebastian came all the way from Avenport to the army camp after talking to Devin. He felt guilty when he saw Sebastian.
With that, things went back to normal.
After all, they were good friends.
Devin and Jake met Sebastian when they were in Sumanthova. Back then, Sebastian had not yet inherited Hayes Corporation.
Devin and Jake were there on a mission when they went to Sumanthova. Although Devin was already well-trained by then, he almost got himself and Jake killed.
They could have died if not for Sebastian.
Even back then when they first met, Sebastian looked like a cold and apathetic person, yet he got all three of them safely away from the killers with his wits and wisdom.
That was their first encounter. From then on, they became good friends.
After they got back to the country, Shawn tagged along with the group.
“Where is she?”
As usual, Sebastian was in a bad mood. He did not even look at Devin.
He scanned the military camp, looking for the culprit.
Devin was about to say something when he saw a frown spread across Sebastian’s brows.
“Sabrina Hayes! You jump over that wall and I’ll feed you to the dogs!” Sebastian yelled.
Devin trailed his gaze and looked back.
He had locked her up earlier on because he knew Sebastian would come, but it seemed like Sabrina had fled the room and was about to jump over the wall to sneak off.
Seriously. I can’t deal with these two.
Devin had no choice but to open the gate.
Sebastian dashed in and grabbed Sabrina by the collar.
“Ah! Sebastian Hayes! What are you doing?” Sabrina cried out when she fell to the ground. She glared at her brother and scolded him.
Before she could say any further, Sebastian stamped a loud hard slap on her face.
“Ouch!”
Sabrina curled up against the wall in fear, covering her face.
Devin came over and stopped Sebastian from beating her up.
“Hey, Sebastian, calm down. She didn’t cause any trouble for me at all. Just forgive her this once. She knew she did something wrong.”
“You want me to forgive her?”
Sebastian was like an enraged beast now. “Do you know why I came here on my own? I knew none of my men would be able to drag this mad woman home. That’s why I came all the way here and you want me to forgive her?”
Sebastian had totally lost it.
After hanging up the phone in the morning, Sebastian had asked Luke to make arrangements to get Sabrina back, but Luke got back to him saying none of his men could even go close to Sabrina.
She drove them all away.
There was no way Sebastian would go easy on her after everything she did.
With that said, Sebastian wanted to slap her again.
Sabrina could not take it anymore. She screamed at the top of her voice and told the truth. “Why are you hitting me? Sasha’s the one who came up with the idea!”
“What? Sasha?”
Both Sebastian and Devin were dumbfounded. Devin found it particularly hard to believe.
Are you serious? Sasha was the one behind this?
That is impossible. She’s always been a smart and polite woman. There’s no way she will come up with such an idea.
“You’d better not lie to me. Did she really suggest this to you?” Sebastian asked.
Sabrina realized she had blundered. She panicked and did not say another word.
This made Sebastian even angrier.
He was under the impression that Sabrina was lying just to get away from punishment.
“Fine. I see you’ve got some guts to lie in my face now. You should really get a taste of my wrath. Do you want me to send you away again?”
“What?”
Sabrina was on the verge of spilling everything. She sunk to the ground like a deflated balloon and started yelling.
“I didn’t do it! I’m not lying! She really asked me to come here. She said it will be too late for anyone to separate us once I get pregnant. That’s really what she said.”
Sabrina finally told the truth.
Sebastian was stunned.
No one dared speak another word.
