Chapter 1212

Something Wrong

She was somehow impressed to see Sabrina doing the laundry skillfully. She had never expected a
spoiled lady like the latter could manage such an errand.

Both Sabrina’s hands had become red after scrubbing at the clothes.

“Sab, I’m impressed. You’ve learned so much even in an unfavorable environment.”

“Hmph!”

Sabrina snorted angrily and continued her ministrations.

That amused Sasha, but she knew she should not laugh in front of Sabrina. If I did, she’d throw the
clothes at me.

With that, Sasha tried to change the topic.

“Where’s Devin?”

“Chopping wood!” Sabrina snapped.

Sasha was dumbfounded when she heard that.

Devin’s chopping wood? He’s the heir of the Jadesons and previously the special force commander.
Yet he’s willing to do such humble work now?

Sasha knew Devin had a good temper, but she did not expect it to be this good. She was utterly
amazed by that. Sebastian stayed here for months, and he didn’t do anything.

With that thought in mind, Sasha shook her head helplessly.



She decided to take the baby out for a walk a moment later.

Right then, she noticed Sabrina had separated Devin’s clothes from her own.

Sasha was shaken by her action.

Why would she separate her husband’s clothes from hers? Is that necessary? Nevertheless, I should
not stick my nose into others’ business.

The scenery on the mountain in spring was breathtaking. The big maple branches in the temple were
extraordinarily luxuriant, and tiny flowers on the roadside were blooming, leaving a fragrance
everywhere.

Carrying Jaena, Sasha meandered along the small path.

“Jaena, look. There’s a pretty flower over there. Let’s pluck it for you.”

Upon hearing that, Jaena danced joyously in her embrace.

Sasha squatted down and tried to pluck the red azalea.

Right then, a man’s whistle came from further down the path. His whistling was so high and clear that it
shocked all the birds away.

Sasha was stunned by that sound too.

“Wa…”

Jaena was shocked as well, immediately bursting into tears.

Sasha regained her senses and started comforting Jaena. At the same time, she realized the whistling
had stopped too.



“Devin?”

She was slightly startled as she did not expect to see Devin appearing in sight.

Devin’s expression was awkward as well.

He walked toward them with two living birds in his hands.

“Did I startle you guys just now? I was trying to catch these birds for Jaena to play with.”

Upon saying that, he showed Jaena the birds in his hands.

With those cute birds in sight, Jaena stopped crying right away and started giggling loudly.

Sasha was rendered speechless.

So he was trying to catch the birds.

Sasha let out a sigh of relief as she straightened.

“Devin, what’s your plan? You’re not going to stay here forever, are you? I’m worried about Sebastian in
The Fourth Hospital. They won’t allow me to visit him.”

Sasha could not help but express her concerns.

She wanted to find out how Sebastian was holding up.

Plus, she did not think Devin should waste his time chopping wood in this temple.

Fortunately, Devin did not plan to stay long as well.

“I’ll find a chance to visit him. But the most important thing now is Jonathan’s case.”



“Yes. I heard from Sebastian that Jonathan has been sentenced to death by the military court. If we
don’t rescue him in time, it will all be over.”

She became frantic after mentioning it.

Devin nodded firmly. “So we have to solve this first. I heard that you know someone from the Leonard
family back in Yartran, right?”

“Huh?” Sasha was stunned momentarily. “The Leonard family? Yes, I do. Why?”

Past memories started to flash through her mind.

Devin explained, “That man was robbed by a smuggling ring back when they were doing business in
Smallpoint. Jonathan was the one who saved him. If you can contact him and ask him to persuade the
royal family of Yartran to plead for mercy on behalf of Jonathan, it might solve the problem.”

Sasha was absolutely taken aback upon hearing that.

First, the Leonard family indeed comes from the royal family in Yartran. But Raymond had been chased
out by the time I left. Does he still have the right to persuade them? Secondly, how did Devin know
about this? Yes, he’s the commander of the special forces, but I’m only his sister-in-law. How could he
know so much about me?

Sasha stared at him for a long while before responding, “I can try to reach him. However, we’re under
surveillance, and all our communication devices have been cut off. How could we possibly contact the
outside world?”

“Communication devices? I’ve got plenty of them.”

Upon saying that, Devin rolled up his sleeve and showed an expensive-looking watch on his wrist.



Sasha blinked owlishly.

A quartz watch? Doesn’t he only wear mechanical watches?

As a quartz watch had a ticking sound, those from the military would not usually wear it.
