Chapter 1175

Edmund Texted Her

The figure’s eyes widened in shock when Sebastian mentioned the head of The Coffee Shop, for even
with their considerable influence and unrelenting efforts, SteelFort still could not identify who that
person was. After all this while, has the head of the organization finally decided to show themself?

“What should we do then, Mr. Hayes? Are they up to something for appearing at this juncture and
tailing Ms. Sabrina? Do you think…”

The figure suddenly stopped talking mid-sentence because they both already knew where the
conversation was heading.

Since Sabrina was the organization’s target, there could only be one possibility—they had become
suspicious of someone.

The winter night in Jadeborough was bone-chillingly cold, yet the harsh cold paled in comparison to the
fear-inducing aura exuding from Sebastian.

“It’s about time we finally put an end to this!”

“What do you mean, Mr. Hayes?”

“Arrange more men to protect Sabrina. Remember, they’re never to leave her side,” ordered Sebastian
sternly before ending the conversation for the night.

The figure was stunned for a moment as he wondered if that was all they should do. Just protection?
So we’re not making a move on the organization? What if something goes wrong? After all, these
people are crafty, and this is their territory. For all we know, they may have already stationed men
everywhere, men who are ready to pounce on us at any time.



Even though the figure was worried, he eventually decided that it was best for him, as a subordinate, to
follow his superior’s order.

After waking up the following day, Sasha received a call from Sophie, so Sebastian dropped her and
the children at Golden Heights on his way to the White House.

“Take care of Mommy and your sister for me, okay? If you need anything at all, call me,” Sebastian
instructed the eight-year-old Matteo after reaching their destination.

Sasha could not help feeling offended that Sebastian asked the boy to look after her and Vivian instead
of the other way around.

What the heck is he trying to imply? That I’m incompetent?

“Hey, I’m more than—”

“Got it, Daddy! I will do my very best to take care of them, so don’t you worry.” Before Sasha could
argue with the man, Matteo had already given his father his word.

Although Sasha was upset, all she could do was glare at the man from afar since the First Lady had
arrived.

“Good morning, Mrs. Zander!” she greeted after bringing her children next to Sophie’s car.

Sophie, who looked as stylish as ever, greeted in response as soon as she stepped out of the car with
two small boxes in her hands. “Good morning! Wait, you brought your daughter instead. I thought…”
Her sentence was cut short when she saw Vivian instead of the two boys she was expecting.

“It’s just that Ian prefers to stay home, so his father suggested I bring Vivian instead. Is that okay with
you?” inquired Sasha politely.



“Yes, it’s no problem at all. I just want the children to have a great time. But I had the boys in mind
when I prepared the gifts, so I was just a little surprised to see your little princess instead. I haven’t had
the time to prepare hers yet,” Sophie explained as she showed Sasha the jade pendants inside those
boxes.

Sasha was taken aback at the sight of those exquisite stones, for she could tell that they were valuable
antiques and not the kind that one could buy from the market.

“These are far too valuable, Mrs. Zander. We can’t accept them.”

“Why not? These were passed down from my ancestors so that my children could inherit them. As you
know, I can’t bear any myself, so I consider myself lucky that I’m able to find children as adorable as
yours to inherit these heirlooms.”

Since Sophie insisted, Sasha had no choice but to accept the precious jade pendants in the end.

Sophie’s generous gesture reminded Sasha of the things Sebastian told her the night before. The First
Lady sure is investing a lot in order to gain our favor.

The woman and her children then entered the building and began their trip.

Meanwhile, Sabrina stayed home with her daughter that entire morning.

That was until the housemaid informed her that they were out of diapers, after which she decided to
visit the supermarket.

“Do you need me to go with you, Ms. Sabrina?”

“I can go alone. Just stay home and watch Jaena for me,” instructed Sabrina before changing and
heading out on her own.



It was her first time buying something for Jaena since giving birth to her. Because of what happened in
the past, she never got the chance to do anything like that before.

That was also why she looked forward to getting more than just diapers for Jaena. Oh, I can also check
out some cute dresses for her in the mall. Hmm, it’s almost Christmas. I wonder if I can bring her back
to Avenport for the holidays.

The more she thought about it, the more hopeful she got. After finding a parking spot, Sabrina excitedly
made her way into the mall.
