    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 sure to


    exin 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 was much


    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 embrace


    wordlessly. For a long moment, he remained silent as he gazed at her face. Finally, he bent down and


    kissed her.


    Atst, 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 noment about it


    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, a funeral


    is inevitable. There will be peopleing to poke their noses into the Coopers’ affairs. You should warn


    him to be careful,” Sebastian replied nonchntly while toying with a medal in his hand.


    Mark stole a nce at the medal and noticed a small mouse carved on its surface. The sight filled him


    with worry, and he could feel a pounding headache creeping up his head.


    “They really are something else. What do you n on doing next? How are you going to obtain the


    other nine medals?”


    “It’s easy.” Sebastian shrugged. “Once Edmund takes over Benedict’s position, I will remove Carlos


    from the picture. This way, Congress will fall into our hands. The nine medals will be mine for the


    taking.”


    Cold sweat trickled down Mark’s forehead. Gosh, his n is simple yet brutal. I’m sure those geezers


    will have a heart attack if they overhear this.


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


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


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


    Simrly, Edmund began his preparations to leave Red Pavilion. Before that, he had changed the


    bedroom’s curtains and bedsheets to a brighter color, bringing life to it.


    He then nced at the babbling baby on the bed and shifted his gaze toward Sabrina. She was


    standing before the table in a daze.


    “I’ll be leaving now.”


    Sabrina was in the middle of preparing a bottle of form when Edmund’s words snapped her out of


    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 though a


    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 exnation. Instead, he made his way to the room’s safe and entered


    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 shiny surface


    gleamed brightly. Promptly, she felt her heartbeat quicken.


    Once again, Devin asked her the same question in earnest, “Do you still remember thest time I tried


    to give it to you? You told me that you didn’t want it. Right now, I’m giving it to you once more. Make


    sure you keep it safely, all right?”


    This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    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 out and


    epted 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 way to


    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 impressed with


    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, countless


    people dropped by the Coopers residence as they longed to obtain a piece of Benedict’s wealth for


    themself.


    Unfortunately, the women in the Cooper family could not fend themselves against the greedy horde.


    Devin chose this moment to make an appearance.
