Chapter 424

Nigel had a look that showed he was very worried about Sabrina. However, Sabrina’s expression was cold and calm instead, “Nigel, about Ruth, I’m sorry.” “No, Sabrina. I am not here for the matter regarding Ruth,” Nigel was eager to explain, and he reached out to hold Sabrina’s arm. Sabrina jerked backwards. Many people were watching in the company. Two female employees passed by and started to whisper and mutter to each other. “Wasn’t that the young master of the Conor family? Nigel Conor, the grandson of the most powerful family, Ford family.” “Miss Ruth’s cousin-in-law, right?” “Gosh, did he have an affair with Sabrina? It is no wonder why Ruth kept calling her a homewrecker. I thought Ruth was being unreasonable and wrongly blamed Sabrina. It turned out…” The two women were discussing with very soft voices, but Sabrina and Nigel could hear everything. Sabrina said, “Could you excuse me for a moment?” Nigel still would not give way. Sabrina really wanted to move a stone over and smash it on Nigel’s foot. However, they were in the company. She could not scream and shout, or she would attract even more colleagues to watch. Sabrina could only say softly and clearly, “Mr. Conor! Your fiancée’s cousin had repeatedly called and scolded me as the homewrecker who ruined her cousin’s relationship with you. Mr. Conor, you knew it as well. I had never initiated to see you, never!” “It took me a great effort to be able to find this job, so please don’t give me any more trouble, okay?” “Please leave!” She had said that, but Nigel still had no intention of getting out of the way. “I was in Kidon City during this period because Old Master Shaw was sick. Mindy was considered to be brought up by Old Master Shaw, so Mindy and I had been taking care of the old man at Kidon City. I heard from my parents yesterday afternoon that you had been to the Ford Residence,” Nigel said urgently. Sabrina sneered, “Did this have anything to do with you?” “It had nothing to do with me, but it had everything to do with you.” Sabrina lifted her head and looked at Nigel. “What did you mean?” Nigel then said sincerely, “Sabrina, the waters in the Ford family were very deep, very very deep. I had no less than ten cousins and more than one uncle. You have seen it now. I only had one uncle and one cousin left.” Sabrina smiled indifferently. “What exactly was the point of you telling me about this? Could you be straightforward, Mr. Conor?” “What I wanted to say was that the Ford family was not always peaceful as it seemed. It would be impossible for my grandpa, uncle and aunt to sit idle and to wait for their doom. They even had a strong guard against my cousin, let alone a woman like you who was not accepted by my cousin and used to be notorious in South City six years ago. My grandma was confused. She gave the Ford family’s heirloom to you, but this would be trouble for you.” “It’s trouble, did you know? Sabrina!” “When mom called me last night, she told me, “Nigel, your cousin is married to Sabrina, and your grandma gave the heirloom to her.” When I heard my mom telling me this, I rushed back from Kidon City overnight.” “I only wanted to tell you that you had to be extra careful. You have to be cautious of every step you take.” “Anything could happen in a wealthy family as deep as the Ford family, do you understand?” Sabrina was speechless. She had to admit that Nigel’s concerns were true. At least he was genuinely concerned about her. When Old Madam Ford gave her the heirloom yesterday, Sabrina did not want it either. However, she also considered that it could be the old madam was confused and what the old master, Sean and Rose, had thought of her. They must have hated her to their bones. The words that Nigel said at that moment further proved Sabrina’s thoughts yesterday.
