Chapter 1169 Medal

Hearing her words, the man trembled and tightened his embrace. “I'm back. I'm back. I'm so sorry,”he murmured.

“Devin, it's fine. I know I was wrong. Please don't get mad. When I meet your mom, I-I'll make sureto explain to her that it was all my fault and ask her to protect you...” Sabrina rambled on.

Her words seemed like a promise and repentance for her wrongdoings.

My mom? Why did she bring up my mom all of a sudden?

The man was slightly confused, but he realized she must have been provoked again, and it wasmuch more serious than that time in Bellridge.

Why did I send her back here?

Feeling as if someone had stabbed a knife through his heart, he pulled Sabrina into his embracewordlessly. For a long moment, he remained silent as he gazed at her face. Finally, he bent downand kissed her.

At last, Sabrina’s eyes widened. Immediately, she kept her gaze fixated intensely on the man’s face.Back at Oceanic Estate, this sudden news reached Sebastian. However, he made no comment aboutit and temporarily stationed SteelFort’s men at Red Pavilion instead.

"Will it be fine if he returns to the Coopers?” Mark asked worriedly.

“What's the worst that can happen? They are only a few women. Now that Benedict is dead, afuneral is inevitable. There will be people coming to poke their noses into the Coopers" affairs. Youshould warn him to be careful,” Sebastian replied nonchalantly while toying with a medal in hishand.

Mark stole a glance at the medal and noticed a small mouse carved on its surface. The sight filledhim with worry, and he could feel a pounding headache creeping up his head.

“They really are something else. What do you plan on doing next? How are you going to obtain theother nine medals?”

“It's easy.” Sebastian shrugged. “Once Edmund takes over Benedict's position, I will remove Carlosfrom the picture. This way, Congress will fall into our hands. The nine medals will be mine for thetaking.”

Cold sweat trickled down Mark's forehead. Gosh, his plan is simple yet brutal. I'm sure those geezerswill have a heart attack if they overhear this.

However, he had to admit that Sebastian’s plan was effective and viable.

Though, I'm sure no one is as deranged as him.

Following Sebastian's instructions, Mark planted a spy at the Coopers’ funeral.

Similarly, Edmund began his preparations to leave Red Pavilion. Before that, he had changed thebedroom'’s curtains and bedsheets to a brighter color, bringing life to it.

He then glanced at the babbling baby on the bed and shifted his gaze toward Sabrina. She wasstanding before the table in a daze.

“I'll be leaving now.”

Sabrina was in the middle of preparing a bottle of formula when Edmund's words snapped her outof her daze.

It took a long time before she finally lifted her head.

She still found this entire notion somewhat unbelievable.

Whenever Sabrina looked up, a face different from the one in her memory greeted her. Even thougha day had passed, she still found it difficult to wrap her head around it.

"Okay," she murmured and looked down again.

Edmund heaved a heavy sigh.

Yet, he did not try to continue his explanation. Instead, he made his way to the room's safe andentered the password.

Once the metal door swung open, he removed an object from it.

“Here,” Edmund said as he showed it to Sabrina.

What?

Instinctively, Sabrina looked down and caught sight of a gold medal. Under the lights, its shinysurface gleamed brightly. Promptly, she felt her heartbeat quicken.

Once again, Devin asked her the same question in earnest, “Do you still remember the last time Itried to give it to you? You told me that you didn't want it. Right now, I'm giving it to you oncemore. Make sure you keep it safely, all right?”

Edmund... No, he’s not Edmund. He's Devin!

Sabrina bit her bottom lip as tears began to stream down her cheeks. Wordlessly, she reached outand accepted the medal she had rejected in the past.

As soon as the medal was in her hand, she clutched it tightly.

“Do you believe me now?"

"Y-Yeah.” Sabrina nodded with teary eyes.

She's still the same silly woman I've grown to love.

Devin bent down and kissed her sweetly before he bade them farewell. With that, he made his wayto the Coopers.

Sabrina watched Devin's departure from the balcony with her daughter in her arms.

After his figure vanished from her sight, she smiled at her daughter. “Look, aren't you impressedwith Mom? I brought your dad back home,” she whispered.

Benedict's sudden death threw his family into a state of utter chaos.

After all, he had amassed a mountain of wealth through illegal means. After his passing, countlesspeople dropped by the Coopers residence as they longed to obtain a piece of Benedict's wealth forthemself.

Unfortunately, the women in the Cooper family could not fend themselves against the greedyhorde

Devin chose this moment to make an appearance.
