Sasha left the man to continue his work thereafter.

Since he had updated her about his plans, she wanted to trust him with all her heart.

With that, Sasha attended the party Solomon threw to welcome his baby alongside Devin and Sabrina. Captivated

by the fun atmosphere at the party, and also because she had not been back for ages, she decided to stay for a

while.

Ten days later, Devin called her from Jadeborough right when she was about to make a trip home.

“Sasha, are you heading back?”

Sasha froze for a second before answering, “Yes, I've been here for too long. What's up? Anything I can help you

with?”

Devin told her everything. “Yes. Can you check in on Sab and bring her home with you? Nowadays, she anchors

herself at Avenport and doesn't want to come back. Please persuade her. See when she is traveling and tag along.”

This is somewhat funny yet ridiculous. A military man is asking me for a favor because his wife refuses to go home.

Sasha could not resist feeling amused.

In the end, she agreed to lend a hand.

When she arrived at Hillside Villa, the first thing she spotted was a busy figure in the garden. Dressed in a pair of

stilettos, Sabrina was holding her son on one arm while teaching the new mom, Ichika, how to change diapers.

Sasha couldn't help but sigh. I feel tired just by seeing that.

“Sab, your son just threw up some milk.”

“Oh?”

Upon being prompted, the woman then hugged her son and hurried into the living room to fix him.

Oh my, she's truly a legend of some sort. I now find Devin super impressive. In the absence of an elderly person at

home, he's able to tackle everything by himself, with some occasional help from Sigrith.

Sasha waited for Sabrina to clean her baby before bringing up the matter.

“Sab, let's go back to Jadeborough. Jaena is there. Are you going to neglect her that long?”

“She has her dad with her. Don't worry about it. Go ahead if you want to head back. It was too boring for me to stay

home all the time, so I roamed around with other moms. Who knew people would recognize me and keep calling

me Mrs. Jadeson wherever I went! It made me so uneasy. I feel much better staying here with Ichika and her

newborn. This is perfect!” she declined right away.

Sasha hesitated. She wanted to convince Sabrina further but was distracted by the latter's grim expression.

In the end, she gave up.

Fine, I'll accompany her here for a couple more days.

Sasha dismissed her plan to return to Jadeborough and updated Sebastian via a text message.

Three mornings later, she felt that something was off.

It was already August then, supposedly the season of sweet osmanthus.

“Are you buying gold? The youngsters nowadays prefer diamonds to gold.”

“What do you know? The situation is very different now. If there's another political upheaval like what happened

three years ago, having gold as an asset is the safest and most secured investment.”

Sasha was at a jewelry shop when she overheard an old couple exchanging their opinions.

She was there to collect a bracelet meant for Solomon's baby as a welcome gift. Time was not on her side when

she attended the party. So, she did not get to prepare any gift then and wanted to pick out something at Avenport.

Why is the couple making references to the uproar three years ago?

Sasha found it funny, so she chimed in, “Don't worry, sir. Nothing like that will ever happen. Just go ahead and

select pieces that the younger generations fancy.”

The old man's eyes darted to her, followed by an expression of doubt on his face.

“Madam, this is where you're wrong. See, even the Jadesons are not spared. Do you really think that the chance of

this happening again is slim? Let me tell you; everyone is already panicking and getting ready for the worse to

come.”

Sasha's mind went blank.

The Jadesons? What happened? Why didn't I hear anything about it?

She knew at that instant that something was not right.

Ignoring the gold bracelet, she took her phone and left the jewelry shop at once.

“Hello? Oh, Mrs. Jadeson. Mr. Jadeson is not available at the moment. Do you want to leave him a message?” It was

Mark who picked up the call.

It suddenly dawned on her that she had not heard Sebastian's voice for some time now. Apart from the first few

days when she arrived in Avenport, he had not contacted her once.

Sasha shuddered at that thought.

“Where is he? Bring him the phone. I want to hear from him now.”

“Uh...” Mark started to falter.

The more he stammered, the faster her heart pounded.

Holding onto her phone, she quickened her steps out of the mall, flagged down a cab, and went straight to the

airport.

She was put on hold for ten minutes, only to hear Mark coming up with more excuses to pacify her. In the end, he

hung up.

“I'm so sorry, Mrs. Jadeson. Mr. Jadeson has left the office. I'm afraid he's out for a meeting. Shall I ask him to

return your call later?”

“Sure.” That was all she could say.

An hour later, the flight that she boarded took off to Jadeborough.
