Sebastian Brenand's father was also fuming as he began to pant deeply. "Hmph! It must be Rachel. I won't let her go. He must've turned out like this because of her." His mother gritted her teeth. "Yeah, that must be it. Sebastian had never acted like this before, no matter how bad he was in the past. All this for a woman? I can't believe it." Sebastian still hadn't calmed down after leaving the house.

He forcefully kicked a rubbish bin outside the door and sent it flying, trash spilling all over the floor.

The maids in the courtyard were shocked to see this, particularly after they couldn't help but eavesdrop on what went on inside the house as they were cleaning earlier. Sebastian had completely cut off ties with his parents over a woman.

The maids were all terrified, not even daring to breathe too loudly.

Sebastian didn't look at anyone as he stormed out, quickly getting into his car to drive away.

With rage still burning inside him, he floored the accelerator to speed up.

Meanwhile, it was peaceful in Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton's house.

It was a stark contrast to the mess in the Brenands' house.

It was warm and soothing inside, and things ran smoothly.

Sharon Lindt, Wilson Batton, Stanley, and the nannies were keeping an eye on the children in the nursery.

There were sounds of laughter.

In the guest room on the top floor, Xyla held Rachel Wood's hand, as the latter told her about her painful experiences.

Xyla listened while she offered her words of comfort.

They were both women, and Xyla felt sorry for what her friend had gone through.

The more she listened, the more she hated Sebastian's parents.

She was also a mother now. She couldn't understand why they would do those things.

She was also growing fond of

Rachel, knowing how she still advised Sebastian not to hurt his parents for her sake despite everything they had done to hurt her. en.swhovels.net

Xyla released a long sigh when she thought of this, hugging her. Instantly, Rachel pushed her away, wiping her tears from her cheeks.

"Don't hug me! I'm dirty. Don't let me make you dirty," she said pitifully. Xyla's heart broke for her then.

Pulling her into her arms again, she gently caressed her back. "Rachel you're not dirty at all. None of us mind. Your heart is very pure. You're purer than anyone else. Remember, you're a good person."

Rachel repeatedly shook her head, sobbing profusely.

"What's good about me?" she asked. "My family is poor, and I used to work in a nightclub. If I hadn't met

Sebastian, I'd probably be a

prostitute now.

"Never mind all that now. I was even brought to a village in the mountains and raped! Xyla, I'm filthy. I'm not a good girl.

"I honestly feel that I don't deserve Sebastian anymore," she wept.
