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
explain 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.
At last, 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 no comment 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

him to be careful,” Sebastian replied nonchalantly while toying with a medal in his hand.
Mark stole a glance 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 plan 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 plan 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 plan was effective and viable.
Though, I’m sure no one is as deranged as him.
Following Sebastian’s instructions, Mark planted a spy at the Coopers’ funeral.
Similarly, 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 glanced 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 formula 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 explanation. 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 the last 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
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsure you keep it safely, all right?”
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
accepted 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.
