Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 106

Xandra had been under tremendous stress recently as things kept happening one after another without giving her a break. When she found out their plan failed, they shouted in vexation like a madman.

Kelly glared at her useless niece from the corner of her eyes and smacked her lips. “Let’s go on a vacation. We should go abroad to get your mind off this.”

“What? Now?” Xandra questioned in surprise.

Nevertheless, Kelly ignored her disapproving gaze and proceeded to book the flight tickets.

“You need some time off. As for me, it’s better for me to make myself scarce, so Sebastian doesn’t find out anything. It will be the end of the story if Sebastian traces things back to us.”

Xandra clenched her jaw, wanting to disagree, but she knew what her aunt said was true. Hence, she finally gave in.

“You can take this chance to study abroad as well. A woman of substance is always better than a woman with just a pretty face. I remember Sebastian loved all the letters you wrote him last time. You should study a little and improve yourself. Perhaps he might fall in love with you all over again,” Kelly said while booking two tickets on the airline website.

Xandra listened to her quietly and nodded.

Two days passed, and Sasha finally woke up.

Her injury was not fatal, but her body was weak, to begin with. Besides, she lost too much blood from her injury. That was why it took her a good two days to finally come around.

Sasha was dazed and confused when she first woke up. For a long time, she stared into the while ceiling, trying to recall what happened to her.

“Sasha? Are you awake? You okay?” A surprised voice came from beside her.

Sasha turned her head around slowly and looked at the man.

“Uncle Jackson?”

Jackson heaved a sigh of relief hearing his niece spoke. “Thank God you still know who I am. Let me get you some water.”

He rolled his wheelchair towards the counter and poured her a drink.

Sasha struggled to get up when she saw Jackson getting her a glass of water, only to cringe in pain when she strained her wound.

“Don’t move. You should rest a little more so you could fully recover,” her uncle said as he walked over.

Sasha positioned herself back to the original posture and propped back down slowly. Then, she took a sip of water and gave the glass back to Jackson.

“Where’s Matt? Is he okay?” Sasha asked, her voice hoarse and dry.

“He’s fine. He’s at Frontier Bay with Sebastian now, so you don’t have to worry,” he assured her.

His words ended up agitating Sasha. She cocked her head towards Jackson with her eyes wide, clearly shocked at the piece of news.
