Chapter 42


    “Impossible! I won’t teach you! I can knit Little Ian’s clothes myself. So why would I teach you?”


    Xandra’s words agitated Sasha in an instant, and her mind was overpowered by the rising exasperation


    in her heart. Unable to hold herself back any longer, Sasha rejected impulsively, blurting out harsh


    words.


    Usually, she was not an impetuous person. Yet, she tended to lose control easily when it came to her


    children.


    Upon hearing her words, everyone’s face turned grim, especially Sebastian whose face fell.


    “You’re really rude. How could you outrightly reject Ms. Green when she is sincerely asking you to teach


    her knitting? Who’re you to knit clothes for Ian? You sure are clueless about where you stand.”


    Berta broke the silence by criticizing Sasha disdainfully. Every single word from her was of great sarcasm


    like a sharp knife piercing into Sasha’s heart.


    Still holding her son, Sasha clenched her fists at Berta’s words.


    “Berta, how can you be so disrespectful to Ms. Wand when she is willing to knit for Ian out of sincerity?


    Who are you to criticize her? You’re really acting out of line here.”


    Unexpectedly, Xandra reprimanded the housemaid at once for being rude to Sasha.


    She was still kneeling on the floor, clinging onto Sebastian’s legs, and there were tears on her pretty,


    wless face.


    It seemed as though she was defending Sasha by speaking up for her.


    Protective of me?


    Sasha rolled her eyes and snickered. The woman’s pretentious attitude really disgusted her.


    Yet, Sebastian was apparently touched by Xandra’s words. When he saw how forgiving and


    magnanimous she was, the mes of rage in him werepletely put out.


    “You don’t have to degrade yourself by pleading with her. There’re actually many other things that you


    can do for my son.”


    In an instant, Xandra was on cloud nine. She raised her head and asked excitedly, “Sebastian, are you


    serious? Does it mean… you’re willing to forgive me? Sebastian, I-I’m so happy…”


    She burst into tears, but this time, they were genuine and not crocodile’s tears; they were tears of joy for


    her victory against Sasha!


    Meanwhile, Sasha was trembling all over.


    Her heart was filled with a mixture of suffocating rage, despair, and indescribable sorrow. She had a hard


    time epting the fact that the man was totally oblivious to that woman’s cunningness. Can’t he tell that


    the b*tch is just putting on a show?


    Perhaps he is deliberately turning a blind eye to everything.


    She’s the woman he loves the most, so no matter what she’s done, he will still choose to forgive


    her. When I was eight months pregnant years ago, he even had the audacity to abandon us just to be


    with the love of his life.


    Sasha tightened her arms around her son’s tiny body and shut her red-rimmed, teary eyes in weariness.


    “Ms. Nancy?”


    Matteo could sense his mommy’s grief, so he hugged her back to give her mental support.

    He finally understood what his mommy had been enduring all this while. Poor Mommy! Daddy’s really


    dense and doesn’t deserve any sympathy. Mommy made the right decision by leaving him that time.


    Thank God I’ve stayed by her side all these years!


    “Ms. Nancy, don’t be sad.”


    “Alright, I’m not sad anymore. Little Ian, don’t worry. I will not let you get hurt no matter what. I will protect


    you by all means.”


    Gazing lovingly at her son’s face, Sasha quickly wiped her tears away and consoled him.


    Matteo remained silent, yet Sebastian could sense that something was amiss. He red at them with a


    cold glint in his eyes and asked, “Sasha Wand, what are you up to?”


    As though her heart had turned stone-cold, Sasha replied calmly, “Mr. Hayes, you really have no idea


    about what I’m going to do? Since you couldn’t care less about Little Ian’s safety, don’t me me for


    being ruthless. From now onward, my only aim is to snatch him away from you!”


    “What makes you think you’re capable of doing that?”


    “Since I could even crawl out of my grave, nothing is impossible for me. Don’t ever underestimate


    anyone’s ability. You won’t know what to expect when a seemingly vulnerable woman like me is


    infuriated. Sebastian Hayes, you’d better think twice before you leap.”


    Thest few words sent a chill down Sebastian’s spine.


    As Sebastian gave Sasha a nce, his heart skipped a beat at the sight of her bloodshot eyes; there


    was murderous intent in them. If she’s given a knife now, she’ll undoubtedly kill anyone standing in her


    way with it!


    She’s gone bonkers!


    Sebastian swallowed hard. “Are you out of your mind?”


    “You can say so. If I see any wounds on Little Ian’s body again, don’t me me for teaching her a


    lesson!”


    After warning Sebastian, Sasha yanked Berta, who was standing beside her, and gave her a hard poke


    in the neck.


    Everything urred within such a short span of time. Berta could only give a shriek of pain before her


    stiff body copsed on the floor. Everyone in the dining room gaped in shock at what they saw.
