Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1260

Chapter 1260 When You Cannot Win

Sebastian gently patted Sasha’s head as they headed for the dining room.

The entire dinner was difficult for Sasha. She didn’t have any appetite and was overcome with despair that she wanted to be alone with her thoughts and fears.

Looking at Sebastian, she had to put on a happy front for him so that he wouldn’t notice something was wrong.

That night was the most agonizing night ever for Sasha.

Also, radioactive materials had another terrifying effect. Other than causing harm to humans, they could cause some failed organs to recover their functions to a certain level.

That was the reason cancer patients undergo radioactive therapy.

Then, for her, to had gotten pregnant when she shouldn’t have been able to.

Sasha staggered backward. She would’ve fallen to the ground if it wasn’t for the hands catching her.

“Don’t you know you’re pregnant? You should be more careful.”

It was Sabrina. She was dropping by for a visit with her child.

Sasha tried suppressing her emotions, hoping Sabrina couldn’t catch it. Alas, it was too late. Sabrina had caught a glimpse of Sasha’s pale face and tearful eyes.
