âWhat did you say?â Sasha demanded, thunderstruck. She was not prepared at all for her dismissal.
He wants to get rid of me?
No, I wonât go! At this point, even the children are here. How could I leave?
Sasha began to panic. âNo, Mr. Jadeson. Listen to me. Mr. Hayesâs illness is not of an ordinary nature.
The matter canât be rushed, he-â
âIâve given you four months, and now youâre telling me this? Dr. West, if it were not for your teacher
Grayson, I would have gotten rid of you long ago!â
At the last sentence, the old manâs tone grew hard.
Sasha grew pale instantly, not knowing how to refute him.
Sebastian was just beginning to recover. However, she could not tell Jonathan that. Before her foes
made their intentions clear, she was not going to risk the consequences if they found out what she had
told him.
Perhaps he might even be happy to accept it.
It was possible for Sebastian to feel greater hatred toward Jonathan once he regained his memory. At
the end of the day, all of the resentment was traced back to Shin.
If by that point he was still unable to accept that reality, the old man may even resort to keeping his
memories impaired forever.
Nobody knew for certain, and Sasha was not about to wager on that chance.
âNo, Mr. Jadeson. Listen to me. Even if Dr. Wallen is here, it will be the same under his care. Mr. Hayesâs
treatment cannot be rushed.â
âThat was why I didnât even bother calling him,â Jonathan countered dismissively.
âWhat?â Sasha turned pale again.
Even Grayson is not usable anymore?
âEnough. Despite not doing anything for the past four months, I wonât even shortchange you on your
fees. Pack your bags and leave this place within an hour with your child.â
At that he placed the cup forcefully down on the table before departing, leaving Sasha alone in her
stunned reverie.
She stood staring at Jonathanâs departing figure and swayed on the spot, feeling suddenly cold all over.
Why so sudden? Didnât he promise to allow me to shop for Sebastianâs new wardrobe last night?
Yes, Sebastian!
Clutching at the straws of her final hope, she ran toward the mansion and dashed upstairs to the third
floor.
Just as Sasha came out of the observation tower, Tony the butler was already standing by the door in
wait.
âDr. West, where are you going? I have already packed your luggage for you. I suggest you leave
immediately.â The butler signaled for the servants to toss the packed bags to Sasha.
She was beginning to sense that something had gone awry. But at that moment, she was unable to do
anything about it.
âAll right, then. I will collect my daughter and leave.â
âNo need. We have taken the liberty to place her in the car outside. You are all that remains.â
They had even put Vivi in the car?
Her suspicions confirmed, Sasha pursed her pale lips and stared at the butler.
âDo you have to go to that extreme? I pose absolutely no threat to you, why are you in such a rush to get
rid of me? Tony, I am here for Mr. Hayes. Contrary to what you might believe, Iâm not a housemaid to the
Jadesons. Donât you think you have crossed a line by behaving like that?â
The butler gave a guilty smile as he stood his ground.
âDr. West, you are indeed only a doctor. Since arriving here, you have had inappropriate thoughts about
Mr. Hayes. Therefore, your departure would be best for everyone.â
âWhat are you saying? Inappropriate thoughts?â Sasha could not believe what she was hearing. âWhat
inappropriate thoughts?â she demanded.
The butler gave a cold laugh. âDr. West, youâre good at acting innocent. Do you need to be reminded of
what you did? Iâm telling you, though Mr. Hayes is still sick and has two young children, he is still part of
the Jadesons. A common woman like you are not worthy of him.â
After a stunned silence that lasted over a minute, Sashaâs heart was thumping with indignation.
I canât think of him that way? What nonsense! He is my husband, why canât I think of him that way? In
fact, I am the only woman who is allowed to!
Sasha was furious and wanted badly to retort but at that moment, she could not bring herself to say
those words.
âTony, you are mistaken. I did not think of anything I shouldnât have. You must believe me.â
âDr. West, you should just leave and not make things awkward for yourself. Your actions yesterday have
been captured by our surveillance. Besides, your information has been gone through by us. You donât
actually have a husband, do you? Where did your children come from, then? What is your motive for
trying so hard to approach Mr. Hayes? Do I need to spell it out for you?â
