Sabrina, who was on the other end of the line, was resting for her pregnancy at home. She had been two months pregnant by then. The need to take care of Zayn and Aino throughout the years she had been on a run had caused Sabrina to work any job that came her way, to the point where she would not turn down the most exhausting and difficult work that the men a t the construction site refused to take. During the time when she had just given birth to Aino, she worked in the mud to fix the roads in heavy rain. She did not sleep for a day and a night, and for that, she earned an overtime salary of two thousand dollars. The money was enough to buy medicine for Zayn and a month's worth of baby formula for Aino. 1
Sabrina was extremely happy at the time. When she arrived home, Zayn was so worried for her that his eyes were reddened from the urge to cry.
"Sabbie! Keep this up and you will never be able to give birth to another child again!" he scolded her furiously.
Sabrina did not care. "That’s fine, Zayn. I don't intend o n getting married anyways, let alone have another child with a different man. Why would I need to give birth to another child? It's okay."
She had not cared about it six years ago, but six years later, her relationship with Sebastian had blossomed
with such certainty that the two tried every possible way to have another child. However, despite their efforts for over a year, Sabrina had not succeeded in getting pregnant.
Both Sabrina and Sebastian knew distinctly that the reason behind it was how damaged Sabrina's body was.
Indeed, everything was going smoothly in Sabrina's life lately. She worked mostly from home. Ruth, the assistant that she had trained personally, worked hard and had become independent. Apart from that, Sabrina's mother also came to visit very often, bringing different food for Sabrina every day. Because of that, Sabrina had gained weight and grown lazier. She started sleeping a lot, and often struggled to wake up, so much so that she had forgotten to follow up on the matter concerning Jane. It was also because of the fact that Jane had not called her for a long period of time and Sabrina did not have Jane's contact in hand.
It was not because she was a bad friend to Jane.
Furthermore, Alex had contacted Sebastian about twenty days ago to hand over all business to Sebastian so that he could go back to the northeastern region to watch Jane in silence. In Sabrina's mind, she felt that it must be a sign that Jane was doing well. At the very least, she had found true love and she had Alex watching out for her behind her back, so it was unlikely for her to encounter any sort of danger. However, her bubble had been shattered just moments ago when she received a call from Alex's subordinate, Garrett.
