Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1236

Chapter 1236 D*mn Them

“Not really.”

“That’s not true. Mr. Ian, if not for your cleverly designed defense system, we wouldn’t have been able to stop those animals from breaking in. I shudder to think what would have happened if they succeeded.”

The moment Xayden heard Ian’s denial, he quickly recounted the entire incident.

After all, that was the truth.

Back then, the nation was in chaos. With Sebastian bogged down by trouble, he was unable to provide them with any help.

Therefore, they had to be responsible for their own safety. Hence, Ian, together with his brother, used their insane hacking skills to set up a defensive system within the villa.

Even if Xayden were armed with all the weapons in the world, he alone wouldn’t have been able to protect them.

Blushing all over, Ian sat obediently in Sebastian’s arms without a word.

In response, Sebastian was seized by guilt.

All these years, he felt bad that his children had to be constantly on the run due to his messy affairs. Their lives were so unsettled that they didn’t even have the chance to go to school.

And now, they had to resort to protecting themselves.

Feeling the burn in his eyes, it took Sebastian a while to regain his composure before carrying his son up.

“All right now, time for bed. I’m tired too. Why don’t we sleep together tonight?”

“Sure!”

Sebastian was surprised that such a simple phrase was able to cause Ian to raise his head with a sparkle in his eyes.

That was also the first time Ian felt ecstatic.

After that, Sebastian carried him upstairs.

When he opened the door to the children’s room, the other two children were sound asleep and totally unaware that their dad had returned home.

Sebastian’s smile widened at the sight.

After adjusting their covers for them, he led Ian to another room.

“Daddy, why didn’t Mommy come over?” Ian couldn’t help but ask after Sebastian had tucked him in.

Sebastian froze the moment he heard the question.

Mommy?

After a brief struggle within himself, Sebastian decided to speak frankly.

“Mommy can’t come over for the time being. However, I promise you that I will bring her here as soon as I can. By that time, the five of us will stay here and no longer move. How about that?”

Stumped, Ian curled into his blanket with reddened eyes.
