Sasha stared at him in shock as she was unable to digest the sudden change in the situation.
âWhat are you staring at me for? Do you still want a divorce? Did you fall for another man and
desperately want to get married? Sasha, donât forget that you have jinxed two husbands already.â
Sebastian suddenly made the harsh comments while eating leisurely.
Having heard him, Sashaâs earlier confusion cleared itself up as rage engulfed her.
âWhat did you say? Who jinxed two husbands?â
âAm I wrong? I was cursed by you to not have a good nightâs sleep for the past five years. While you
caused Vivianâs dad to die. So, can you stop bringing misfortune to other men?â
Bam!
Sasha slammed the table forcefully as she jumped to her feet in rage. âI hope you choke to death
tonight. And both my husbands will then be dead!â
With that, she shook her fist at him and stormed upstairs.
How dare that idiot accuses me of being a jinx to my husband. I sure hope he dies tonight so that I can
live up to my ânameâ.
Sasha returned to her room, fuming.
Unknown to her, Sebastian smiled smugly the moment she left.
As the dining room returned to normality, he could still hear the sound of angry flip-flops. He then
continued eating with a smug smile on his face.
What a fool.
After dinner, Sebastian went up to the third floor.
Just when he took off his jacket, the phone on his table rang. It was his personal line that he hardly
checked. He answered, âHello?â
âSebastian, itâs Xandra. Today⦠did you see the messages I have sent you earlier? My book is about
to be published, and I will return in the next two days. Can you come to pick me up from the airport?â
It was Xandra on the line.
While putting her question across carefully, she made sure her voice was gentle and submissive so as
to please Sebastian.
Unfortunately, it backfired when his expression darkened instead.
Without even saying a word, he ended the call.
At that moment, Xandra who was still overseas smashed her phone onto the ground.
Why?
Why is he treating me this way? Even if I had lied to him, I was still the one who wrote the letters over
the last four years. Do the letters not have any meaning when compared to those from six years
ago? Isnât it the thought that counts?
She was being driven hysterical.
When Kelly heard the commotion, she walked over. âWhat are you doing? Didnât I tell you not to call
him?â
Xandra was so emotional that she grimaced in rage. âWhy canât I call him? I didnât do anything wrong,
and I did write him the letters. Why does he only recognize the six yearsâ worth of letters from her and
not mine?â Xandra cried out in agony.
Unknown to her, Sebastian didnât recognize the six yearsâ worth of letters that Sasha wrote too.
When he first knew about it, he was equally outraged and couldnât accept it. It simply intensified his
hatred toward her. Or else, he wouldnât have wanted a divorce right away.
However, Sashaâs major incident occurred after that.
He assumed he had hated her. But that night, when he heard about it and rushed over, he saw her
corpse-like figure in the interrogation room.
At that very moment, he panicked.
It never crossed his mind that he would ever be frightened.
He couldnât wait for her to disappear. But yet, when that image flashed before his eyes, he felt as if she
was a bubble in the air, which could disappear anytime from a momentary lapse of concentration.
He realized that it didnât bring him any joy.
All he felt was a growing sense of horror and panic. It was as if his heart was being torn from him. The
thought that she would no longer be around caused his limbs to freeze and his soul to be lost.
Therefore, he was caught off guard by the fact that she had started to take root in his heart.
And all that had nothing to do with the letters.
Even if it did, it was what was behind the letters. Bit by bit, just like poison, the feelings permeated his
bones.
It was something Xandra didnât have.
Finally, Kelly had no choice but to give Frederick a call. Unexpectedly, his attitude toward her had
changed.
âSince weâre going to have the wedding soon, why donât we make it on his auntâs birthday. Bring your
niece and we will consider them as having met each otherâs parents. Furthermore, I will not have any
objections,â Frederick asserted over the phone despite sounding reluctant.
However, Frederickâs tone was the last thing Kelly was concerned about as she was already jumping
with joy. âAlright, alright. Thank you, Mr. Hayes!â
Aunt?
Isnât that Matilda?
Compared to the two men of the Hayes family, she is a lot easier to manipulate. All I need to do is to
send her some expensive presents. Furthermore, I heard that her son is pursuing the mayorâs
daughter. As long as I pull some strings, everything will be sorted out.
Kellyâs eyes finally lit up.
