Initially, she was disappointed to hear that Sebastian had left, but the Jetroinian’s explanation made her blood run cold. She nearly lost her balance.
“What did you do to him?” she hissed in desperation, thinking they had harmed him.
Luckily, Ken replied nonchalantly, “Calm down. I didn’t harm him. It was someone by his side. I want to serve him a reminder.”
Sasha stood in silence for a while, trying to get her breath back.
She pressed on. “Someone by his side? Who is it? By the way, where is my sister-in-law? She’s not here. Where is she?”
Sasha was asking about Sabrina, as she didn’t see the latter after being brought here.
Alas, Ken was running out of patience to answer her questions. He left a warning for her to stay put or risk being punished before stalking away.
Sasha was shaking in indignation, but she couldn’t escape from here.
Most importantly, she didn’t even know where she was. There was no way she could save Sabrina now.
At that thought, she turned to glower at the maids in the house.
“I’m hungry.”
“Yes, Ms. Wand!”
Indeed, the maids were delighted to hear that she was hungry. Two of them left to prepare some food for her.
Sasha watched calmly as they departed. When they both disappeared from sight, she stood up from the bench in the courtyard and walked slowly to her room.
“Ms. Wand, how can I help you?”
“I want to change my clothes. Come in,” Sasha replied in fluent Jetroinian, shocking the maid who came in after her.
Without looking at the maid, Sasha strode into her room and took out an outfit.
Strangely, though she was held captive in this place, she wasn’t treated like a prisoner. They even prepared an extremely expensive Jetroinian traditional outfit for her.
“I don’t know how to put this on. Can you help me?”
“Sure.”
The maid came over earnestly.
