“You really came, Ian.”
Sasha was incredibly shocked. She followed Matt and saw a small human at the bottom of their condo. He was accompanied by a man wearing dark sunglasses and an all-black attire. They stood unmovingly at the entrance.
This child…
Sasha panicked and dashed back into the house to open the door and head down.
“Mommy…”
When she arrived downstairs, she immediately saw the child standing at the building’s entrance.
Despite being dressed in a thick down jacket, a hat, and mittens, the extremely cold weather had turned his cheeks red. Even his snot had frozen.
“What are you doing? Why did you bring him here when it’s so cold?”
“I’m sorry, Ms. Wand. We had no choice. Ian was making a fuss about coming here. He’s insisting on going to preschool with Matt.”
The bodyguard who was holding an umbrella rushed to explain.
Sasha was left with no other option but to carry her son in. Once her other two children were done eating, she took them to the preschool.
At Hayes Corporation in the center of the city.
Sebastian, who had just arrived at the office, switched off his phone after he received the photo from the bodyguard showing that the three children had entered the preschool. He picked up his laptop and went into his office.
Luke walked in to announce that day’s schedule.
“Mr. Hayes, tasks had piled up since you were absent from the office for two days. You might want to read the email from Ms. Green first.”
“Xandra?”
Sebastian, who had just taken his seat, was initially in a good mood. However, his two shapely eyebrows were now furrowed. “What email?”
Luke immediately brought out his laptop and opened the email from Xandra.
To be honest, it was rather contemptuous.
Even though Xandra had known Sebastian for many years, she still could not send him emails. Sebastian’s inbox had a spam filter. Other than company matters, no one else could send him emails.
This included Xandra.
Sebastian scanned the email and realized it was a draft.
“Mr. Hayes, Ms. Green says that this is the draft she had just finished writing. She’s about to hand it over to the editors, but she wanted you to look it over first. If there’s nothing wrong, she’ll send it to the editors,” explained Luke.
Whenever Xandra wrote a new book, she would ask Sebastian to read the final draft. He would always provide her with a satisfactory answer in the shortest amount of time.
However, after Sebastian scanned this latest draft, Luke caught sight of annoyance flashing past his eyes.
“Set it aside first. Bring the other tasks over.”
