Nina’s face turned red, and just then, Sebastian ca downstairs.
She quickly went over and clung to Sebastian’s arm, playfully saying, "Brother Sebastian."
Sebastian lightly furrowed his brows, glanced sideways at Ivy, but instead of pushing Nina away, he lovingly patted the top of her head.
"Nina, what’s the matter?"
Ivy watched the scene with an expressionless face, the bitterness in her heart almost consuming her.
As expected, this man’s tenderness is only for Nina...
Ivy couldn’t bear to watch any longer, so she simply turned and went to have breakfast.
Sebastian saw her walk away without saying a word, his deep eyes darkened.
This woman truly doesn’t care about him at all!
"Brother Sebastian, what’s wrong?"
Nina said several things, but Sebastian didn’t react, prompting her to grumble with displeasure.
Sebastian snapped out of his thoughts and released her hand, "It’s nothing."
Then, he strode towards the dining room.
Nina took a deep breath out of frustration and quickly followed.
Mrs. Langley was just coming out with hot milk.
Nina’s eyes flickered, and suddenly let out a cry, the milk cup crashing to the ground.
"Oh dear, Miss Shaw, you didn’t get burned, did you?"
Mrs. Langley looked alard and quickly set the tray aside.
Nina winced with discomfort, "Mrs. Langley, don’t worry, it’s just that my clothes are all wet..."
Mrs. Langley was overwheld with guilt, cautiously saying, "Miss Shaw, if you don’t mind, I could find one of my new clothes for you?"
Though she said it, the age gap between Mrs. Langley and Nina was too large, wearing her clothes would certainly look mismatched.
"Mrs. Langley, this... doesn’t seem right..."
Nina whispered, helplessly looking at Sebastian, "Brother Sebastian, what should I do?"
Sebastian glanced around and said to Ivy, "Take Nina upstairs and find one of your clothes for her."
Ivy was about to finish eating and leave, but upon hearing this, she reluctantly pursed her lips.
"Alright."
Nina followed her upstairs.
"Just find one of Brother Sebastian’s shirts to wear."
As soon as they were upstairs, Nina spoke with a slightly commanding tone.
Ivy could easily see through her little sche and smiled, "Sorry, Sebastian is my husband, his shirts are only ant for to wear."
aning, you’re not getting one!
Ivy wasn’t soone who would just take things lying down; knowing that Nina ca to make her uncomfortable, she wouldn’t let her get her way.
Sure enough, Nina beca frustrated herself, glanced around, and appeared indifferent as she said, "Then finding one of your clothes to wear will do."
Ivy was rushing to get to work, so she found one of her sweatshirts for her.
Nina looked disdainful, "This shirt is too plain, isn’t it? It might only be worth a few tens of dollars."
Ivy was really annoyed, having seen through Nina’s true colors, she calmly said, "Wear it if you want, if not, then don’t."
With that, she went downstairs early.
Nina watched her leave, and let out a cold laugh.
Before long—
"Brother Sebastian, my necklace is missing!"
Nina ran down from upstairs looking anxious, her eyes red with worry.
"It’s the birthday gift my brother gave ages ago, what do I do? I lost it, and my brother will definitely be very unhappy..."
Nina said, covering her face and began to cry.
Nina had a real brother, but he had passed away a few years ago.
Upon hearing this, Sebastian’s gaze deepened, "Don’t panic, as long as the necklace is still in the Blackwood family, it won’t be lost."
Nina held back her grief and nodded, seemingly casually remarking, "Just now, it was only Mrs. Langley and Miss Kensington who ca near , I wonder if it could’ve been..."
