"I will definitely destroy him!"
With that, Sabrina immediately hung up.
She knew that she would go crazy if she had continued the phone call with Selene.
It wouldn't be a good look in front of so many people here.
Instead, Sabrina decided to exact her revenge once she got back to South City. She vowed that she would destroy the Lynn family no matter what, even if it meant she had to gather troops herself.
Nevertheless, at that moment, Sabrina wasn’t aware that Selene and her family had already fled to Star Island.
The one who had helped them escape behind the scenes was Old Master Shaw.
After she ended the call, Sabrina turned to look at everyone there apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, that was an embarrassing sight."
"No, Mrs Ford, you've already shown us your generosity."
"The fact that you gave away a million to someone who helped you before is enough to show how magnanimous you are."
Those villagers were sly manipulators who were used t o flattering others.
However, when they said that to Sabrina, their words were sincere.
Not even a minute after hanging up the call, the grave specialists, as well as a priest, arrived outside her old house.
After greeting them, Sabrina and Granduncle Scott brought the men to the Scott family's backyard, which was basically an empty piece of land that was overgrown with wild grass. Buried within the weeds was her father's gravestone.
Since Sabrina had not been back in over ten years, her father’s grave had been reduced to just a small mound of soil. Thankfully, she could still tell where her father was buried, thanks to the protruding gravestone. She quickly walked up to it and knelt down while crying." Dad... I've finally returned to see you. Dad... Were you lonely being here all by yourself all this time?
In fact, everything that had to do with Sabrina's old home concluded even before lunch hour arrived.
Hugging the box that contained her father's ashes tightly, Sabrina bid Granduncle Scott farewell before she left. "Granduncle, I'll be staying in a hotel in the county today, so don’t hesitate to call me if there's anything wrong. You can call Sebastian's number as well."
"Sabrina, slow down. Even though this place is being demolished, all the residents staying here will be relocating to the same area. In the future, you can come back anytime you want. This village will forever be your home." By the time he finished, Granduncle Scott's face was full of tears. 2
Sabrina nodded emotionally as she got into the car with the box in her arms.
Then, the car drove slowly away from the village.
When Sabrina looked back and saw the villagers waving and sending her off, she couldn't help but feel melancholic. However, she knew that it wasn't the time for her to wallow in sorrow and regrets. Right now, her main priority was to learn more about her mother.
"Sebastian... You said that my mother was once confined in Lincoln's home, what happened then?" Sabrina asked impatiently.
