“Shall we go back? It’s getting late.”

“Back where?”

“Back to Jadeborough, of course. Our daughter is still at home.” Devin reminded Sabrina.

When Sabrina heard that, she finally snapped out of her daze.

“Now? But… But we still have unfinished business here.” Surprisingly, she was unwilling to leave, preferring to stay until everything was settled.

“Don’t worry. I’ll take care of everything here. You’re injured, and Jaena is waiting at home. It’s better for you to go back.” Devin tried to coax her.

Sabrina lowered her head in silence.

Devin frowned as he felt a prick in his heart.

He understood that Sabrina wanted to personally attend to the funeral arrangements of the Sheerwoods out of guilt. She probably wanted to compensate them and redeem herself. However, this was not a safe place for her to stay.

Hence, he decided to be more assertive. “Let’s go. I’ll walk you out.”

With that, he walked straight to her bedside and got ready to scoop her up in his arms to carry her out.

Unexpectedly, as he stretched out his arms, Sabrina shrank away from him. “I-I don’t want to go back. Devin, can I… attend to their funeral arrangements personally? Sasha will look after Jaena. I just want to stay until their bodies are properly buried, and I’ll go home after that. Please?”
