The Vice-Director quickly pulled a chair towards Sebastian and said politely, "Please take a seat, Master Sebastian."
He finally got a grasp of the situation.
Sebastian truly did embody the qualities described in the Ford Group's social media posts: powerful, ruthless, merciless and terrifying, but utterly under his wife's spell.
The famed man with the highest authority in the entire Ford Group really did tiptoe around his wife.
In addition to being afraid of displeasing his wife, it seems that Sebastian had also felt insecure at the prospect of losing her to some younger and betterlooking men.
Another thing that the Vice-Director realised was that Master Sebastian wasn't here to monitor their work or to discuss the details of their collaboration at all.
No, the man was simply here to see his wife because h e missed her. More precisely, the almighty Director had decided to abandon all his pending work and contracts just to run over to his wife's workplace to check up on her.
All things considered, the Vice-Director's guess was not far off the mark at all.
What Sebastian had not expected, however, was that Selene would show up as well with the intention to assault Sabrina.
From the moment that she had approached the reception, Sebastian had overheard every single word that Selene muttered to herself.
He had even contemplated on whether he should make Selene Lynn 'disappear' from this world, had Sabrina chosen to remain silent when faced with that woman’s unreasonable behavior.
After all, no one could stand in Sebastian's way, not even the old Master Shaw, if he truly wished to get rid of someone.
Yet to his surprise, Sabrina wasn’t harmed in any way at all, and did not get intimidated by Selene either.
She even managed to trap Selene in an awkward situation which would ultimately ruin her reputation.
When he saw Sabrina's ploy in action, Sebastian couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
This little woman!
Meanwhile, Sabrina, who was going through blueprints, suddenly jumped as though she had smelled a putrid stench. She immediately replied, " Sorry, but I'm afraid of getting poisoned. Please stay away from me."
Upon hearing this, Selene bit her lips in frustration with so much force that they almost started to bleed. Through gritted teeth, she finally asked, "Sis, what exactly do you want?" "You can go now!" Sabrina dismissed without even turning to look at her. "This is my workplace, so I don't have time to deal with you now."
Yet, Selene did not dare to leave just like that.
In contrast to the confidence that she had felt when coming over to the firm, Selene was practically shivering in fear now.
She was horrified by the possibility of getting shot down before she could even leave the building, or worse. There's no way that she could just leave like that.
Despite being on the verge of breaking down in tears, Selene managed to force a smile before offering, "Sis, I came here today with something else in mind. I want t o wear this pair of filthy old shoes around my neck so that everyone can know what a shameless, used-up home-wrecker I am, just like these shoes. What do you think, sis?"
This caught Sabrina's attention, who looked up abruptly. 2
When she saw that Selene had already tied the shoes together and hung them around her neck, Sabrina didn't know how to react.
