Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 102

Ian got ready within ten minutes, and the two headed to Old Town.

Sebastian never probed into where Sasha was living as he had always thought she was staying with her uncle. After all, that was what she told him.

It was not until today that he found out that Sasha actually lied to him and that she had found another place to stay.

This obviously did not set Sebastian in a good mood. Thus, he drove Ian to Old Town without saying a word. This neighborhood is simply too squalid and slummy. His nose wrinkled in disgust as he looked around.

Beside him, Ian’s reaction was totally different.

As the car drove nearer to Sasha’s place, Ian poked his head out of the window and looked around in expectation. He was looking for her, and Sebastian could tell from his actions that his son could not wait to see her. That little boy was scanning the area meticulously, trying to get a sign of his mother.

Sebastian eyed the eager kid from the corner of his eyes and pursed his lips. Too bad this is the last time she gets to see Ian. The car drove towards an apartment, but Sebastian could not find a place to park since a large crowd had gathered at the entrance. Right in the middle of the group was a little girl who was holding a stranger’s hand. The person was trying to calm her down.

Vivi!

The moment Ian spotted her, he asked Sebastian to stop the car. He then jumped off immediately and ran over, pushing his way through the crowd.

“Vivi!” he shouted with all his strength.

Vivian turned her head around, trying to locate the direction of the familiar voice. Her frightened gaze wandered around aimlessly.

Ian! Ian’s here!

The moment Vivian saw Ian, she let go of the man’s hand and darted toward Ian. She ran as she tried to hold back her tears welling up in her eyes. “Ian! You’re here!”

She planted herself right in his open arms.

Vivian was terrified after a whole night of anxious waiting. Sasha did not come home, and neither did her two brothers. This was the biggest fright of her life. When she finally saw a familiar face, she could not hold it in any longer.

Ian instantly realized the despair on her face and welcomed his sister into his embrace.

A frown of disdain settled on Sebastian’s brows as he looked at the little girl in Ian’s arms. Isn’t this the girl I saw at the hospital yesterday? She’s the illegitimate daughter of that woman.

“What’s the matter? Why are you here? Where’s your mother?”

Regardless of the aversion Sebastian felt towards the girl, he went closer and asked her what all this mess was about.

Beckoned by a stern and unfamiliar voice, Vivi looked up and hid behind Ian.

Both Sebastian and Ian suddenly became speechless.
