Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1122

Sebastian plainly grunted, “Mmm-hmm.”

Mark’s eyes widened at the rearview mirror.

“Why did you? Before you left, didn’t Old Mr. Jadeson remind you to stay out of all this? How did you end up stepping back into the center of power? By doing this, Old Mr. Jadeson will…”

“Silas was the one who forced me into it.”

“Silas?” Mark gaped.

How is that possible? Isn’t he the newly elected president? Why must he pressure the Jadesons when they no longer pose a threat to the White House? By putting a target on Mr. Sebastian’s back, is he trying to destroy the Jadesons?

Within just a few seconds, Mark’s face had lost all color.

However, Sebastian didn’t share Mark’s grim assessment of the situation. After massaging his forehead, he took out his phone.

“There’s no need to panic. It’s all just a game. If it’s too simple, where’s the fun in that?”

Mark’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

What sort of comment is that? Given how dire the situation is, how can he say that it’s just a game?

Suddenly, Mark could feel his old chest injury acting up again.

Meanwhile, inside a villa in Yorksland…

Sabrina noticed that there was something strange about Edmund.

For example, he had always loved to go out gallivanting. But over the last two days, he stayed at home holed up in his bedroom.

Also, when she happened to come downstairs, she saw him sitting in the living room reading some maps.

Is he planning to take me to Zarain?

Sabrina’s eyes lit up at the thought.

“Edmund, what are you doing?”

“Huh?”

Just when he was making notes on the map, Edmund panicked and almost dropped his pencil on the table.

“N-Nothing at all. Why did you come down? Weren’t you sleeping?” Springing up to his feet from the sofa, Edmund swiftly folded up the map.

Sabrina furrowed her eyebrows.

“Not really, I’ve slept enough. Anyway, what map is that? Is it one of Zarain? When are you going to take me to see my husband? It’s already been one week.”

Sabrina began to show her frustration.

In fact, she was further infuriated when he kept up the map instead of giving it to her.

So that’s what it is.

Edmund chuckled. “No, this is a map of a holiday villa that I planned to invest in, not one of Zarain. I just want to see if there’s anything interesting nearby.”
