She was somehow impressed to see Sabrina doing the laundry skillfully. She had never expected aspoiled lady like the latter could manage such an errand. Both Sabrina’s hands had become redafter scrubbing at the clothes. “Sab, I'm impressed. You've learned so much even in an unfavorableenvironment.”

“Hmph!” Sabrina snorted angrily and continued her ministrations. That amused Sasha, but she knewshe should not laugh in front of Sabrina. If I did, she'd throw the clothes at me. With that, Sashatried 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 theJadesons and previously the special force commander. Yet he’s willing to do such humble worknow? 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. Withthat thought in mind, Sasha shook her head helplessly. She decided to take the baby out for a walka 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 thatnecessary? Nevertheless, I should not stick my nose into others’ business. The scenery on themountain in spring was breathtaking.

The big maple branches in the temple were extraordinarily luxuriant, and tiny flowers on theroadside were blooming, leaving a fragrance everywhere. Carrying Jaena, Sasha meandered alongthe 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 pluckthe red azalea. Right then, a man’s whistle came from further down the path. His whistling was sohigh 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 andstarted 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.” Uponsaying that, he showed Jaena the birds in his hands. With those cute birds in sight, Jaena stoppedcrying 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 asshe straightened. “Devin, what's your plan? You're not going to stay here forever, are you? I'mworried about Sebastian in The Fourth Hospital.

They won't allow me to visit him.” Sasha could not help but express her concerns. She wanted toreplace out how Sebastian was holding up. Plus, she did not think Devin should waste his timechopping wood in this temple. Fortunately, Devin did not plan to stay long as well.

“I'll replace a chance to visit him. But the most important thing now is Jonathan's case.” “Yes. I heardfrom Sebastian that Jonathan has been sentenced to death by the military court. If we don't rescuehim 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 inYartran, right?” “Huh?” Sasha was stunned momentarily. “The Leonard family? Yes, I do. Why?” Pastmemories started to flash through her mind. Devin explained, “That man was robbed by asmuggling 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 royalfamily of Yartran to plead for mercy on behalf of Jonathan, it might solve the problem.” Sasha wasabsolutely taken aback upon hearing that. First, the Leonard family indeed comes from the royalfamily 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'monly his sister-in-law. How could he know so much about me? Sasha stared at him for a long whilebefore responding, “I can try to reach him.

However, we're under surveillance, and all our communication devices have been cut off. How couldwe possibly contact the outside world?” “Communication devices? I've got plenty of them.” Uponsaying 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 quartzwatch had a ticking sound, those from the military would not usually wear it.
