Remarried Wife: She will Remarry, But Another Person-Chapter 199: Growing a Bit Closer

The old master saw her determined expression and felt quite gratified.

Fortunately, despite the hardships over the years, her original intent returned, and with a firm goal, perhaps... this is what growth is about.

As the topic passed, the two spoke about Zara again.

Upon hearing that the little girl is learning to paint and studying music under the famous musician Winter Willow, the old master was greatly shocked yet extremely proud.

Sabrina Hayes even showed him the photos and videos of Zara studying on her phone.

"The little girl has such an artistic flair, look, her paintings are really good..."

The old master was full of praise for the works in the photos.

Sabrina said with a smile, "If you like, Zara can paint for you next time. The little girl also needs a model to practice with."

"That would be great! Your mentor lacks everything but not time. Whenever Zara wants to paint, I’m available!"

The old master’s eyes lit up with such expectation in his expression.

After unwrapping the cub’s presents, the time was already late.

Sabrina looked at the time, saw it was about right, and then took Zara to say their farewells, preparing to go home.

The old master and Butler Woods reluctantly saw them off, reminding from behind, "In the future, if there’s nothing happening, bring Zara over for meals. Zara, whatever you want to eat, come to your great-grandfather’s place, everything’s here!"

"Okay~"

The little girl replied with a bright smile.

Sabrina Hayes also said to the old master, "If you have time these days, take a stroll and visit my research institute. I have some things I’d like to consult you about."

The old master readily agreed, "Alright, then tomorrow."

"Okay."

Sabrina had no objections, "I’ll come to pick you up then."

The matter was settled just like that.

Only after Sabrina and their car left did the old master and Butler Woods return inside.

On the way back, the little cub was particularly happy.

After parking the car, the mother and daughter carried a pile of boxes into the house.

When Tessa Hughes saw them, she looked surprised, "Did you guys go wholesale today? How come you brought back so many things again?"

"Again?"

Sabrina Hayes was a bit puzzled.

Tessa Hughes pointed to a pile of bags on the floor, saying, "Look, all these shoes you’ve bought."

Sabrina was bewildered, "I didn’t buy any shoes. Could it be a delivery mistake?"

Hearing this, Tessa was also taken aback, then said, "It couldn’t be a mistake. The recipient’s name is yours."

Hearing this, Sabrina found it strange.

She instinctively opened those meticulously wrapped bags and discovered they indeed contained five or six pairs of beautiful high heels.

Each pair had a different style, but they were all exquisite, looking like works of art.

It was only then that Tessa noticed a card inside the bag.

Suddenly, she was utterly shocked.

"Oh my! These are all global limited editions, designed by someone named Crimson, who exclusively customizes for royals and high-end dignitaries of the noble house!

Oh my god, Sabrina, do you know how hard it is to order a single pair???

Even with money, you might not make it in line!!!"

The limited edition works of a renowned designer got the fashionista Tessa extremely excited.

But Sabrina was baffled after hearing this; are these shoes... that rare?

She shook her head, "Then it certainly couldn’t be from me! I don’t even know anyone named Crimson..."

Nor would she specially order a pair of high heels... no, five or six pairs, and limited editions at that.

"I also thought it wouldn’t be you."

Tessa said, flipping the card around, and discovered there was an inner page.

She opened it, looked for a few seconds, and her eyes suddenly filled with interest.

Sabrina looked at her, puzzled, and couldn’t help but ask, "What kind of look is that?"

Tessa smiled and said, "I know who sent you the shoes."

"Hmm?"

Sabrina was confused.

Tessa handed over the card directly, saying, "See for yourself."

Sabrina took it and saw at the bottom of the card, at the signature part, was written ’Fitzgerald.’

She too was stunned...

Mr. Fitzgerald???

Tessa, seeing that she saw it, started to tease, "Tsk tsk tsk, and you said there’s nothing between you two, but already he’s giving you shoes.

I should’ve guessed, only he would be such a big spender."

Sabrina didn’t know how to explain, feeling her heartbeat skip a bit.

But it wasn’t the same thought as Tessa’s.

Mr. Fitzgerald surely had no other intentions.

She put the card away and immediately said, "I’ll go ask..."

Then she took her phone and called Jasper Fitzgerald.

He quickly answered, his voice as magnetic and gentle as ever, "It’s so late already, haven’t you rested?"

Sabrina, listening to that magnetic voice, felt her ears tingle a bit and inexplicably felt embarrassed.

But she still responded, "No, not yet. I need to ask you something."

"Go ahead."

Jasper Fitzgerald waited patiently.

Sabrina didn’t hesitate for long and asked directly, "Mr. Fitzgerald... why did you suddenly send so many pairs of shoes to my house? Did they get sent to the wrong place?"

Jasper’s voice was warm as he replied, "No mistake, I damaged a pair of your shoes before, so I picked out a few for you. Do they fit?"

His response reminded Sabrina of the embarrassing event from the summit night.

After all, it wasn’t Mr. Fitzgerald’s fault; it was actually her responsibility.

She had accidentally gotten her shoe stuck in the drainage.

She chuckled, "How could that be your fault? These shoes you sent must be expensive, and I can’t accept them. I’ll pay you back."

"No need." 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Jasper didn’t agree with this proposal and added, "These shoes don’t require money."

"How is that possible?"

Sabrina didn’t believe it, "Tessa said these are exclusive designs from a renowned designer’s collection. Don’t try to fool me."

Jasper hadn’t expected her to know so much and said, with a hint of helplessness, "It really didn’t cost anything because that designer is a relative of mine; she didn’t charge me."

Sabrina pursed her lips and then said, "Then... should I pay her? After all, it’s her hard work."

"No need." Jasper said helplessly, "She won’t accept it; don’t waste your effort."

With things said to this extent, Sabrina knew that no matter what she said, Jasper wouldn’t accept any money.

After hanging up, Sabrina felt quite troubled.

She felt like she was always accepting his kindness, and if this went on for too long, would Mr. Fitzgerald think she was someone who loved taking advantage?

Sabrina didn’t want to leave that impression on him.

She needed to think seriously about giving Jasper a gift.

It was just that, at the moment, she couldn’t think of what to give.

Mr. Fitzgerald seemed to lack nothing, and regular expensive luxury items were too cliché.

After much brain-racking, she still couldn’t think of anything.

So, Sabrina went to Tessa for help to come up with ideas.

Tessa rarely teased her and instead provided a bunch of references.

"For men, it’s usually watches, clothes, ties, and the like. I think you can pick something suitable for some banquet occasions."

After hearing that, Sabrina shook her head, "I don’t think that’s appropriate..."

Although the suggestion was good, those kinds of gifts seemed a bit too personal, right?

So that night, the two discussed for a long time but didn’t come to a conclusion.

The next morning, after sending Zara to school, Sabrina went to her mentor’s place to pick him up to go to the research institute.

The old master was already waiting early and was quite satisfied with the scale of his disciple’s research institute.

While there weren’t many people, the equipment inside was the most advanced.

"Because we’ve recently started collaborating on research with the military, it’s been a bit busier. I’ve already completed the initial plan. Please take a look..."

Sabrina personally accompanied her mentor and explained everything in detail.

The collaborative research materials had been shown to the old master previously.

Some things the old master had never seen before, and after seeing them in person, he was even more satisfied with his disciple.

"Not bad, not bad. Although you’ve slacked off over the years, your foundation hasn’t been lost, and your capability remains."

The old master, in his younger days, was also very passionate about research. Once he was engaged with it, he practically couldn’t stop.

After a whole morning of touring, the old master became eager and simply decided not to leave, diving into the research work right there at the institute.
