Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1466

Chapter 1466 The Silence

“What does that even mean? And you think this five million is enough to brush me off?” scoffed Lyla condescendingly.

To that, Brandon’s assistant chuckled and decided that there was no point in playing nice with Lyla any longer.

“How much exactly do you want then? That man has already done so much for you for so many years, and you’re still not content? You look perfectly fine to me, so I don’t see why you need handouts. Besides, he has a kid to raise now. How much more are you planning to take from him?”

“A kid? What kid?” The Emmanuels were stunned by the sudden piece of information.

 

“What are you talking about? Whose kid is that?” questioned Matilda.

 

“You don’t know? It’s Ms. Fischer’s. That kid was no test-tube baby. She only told Brandon that because she had no other choice. You probably had no idea that she had severe depression because of your family’s constant abuse. In the end, she decided to take her own life,” sneered the assistant as if he was talking to a bunch of hideous and revolting creatures.

Unsure of how to respond to that, the Emmanuels fell dead silent.

 

Each and every one of them was instantly drained of colors when the guilt set in.

Willow is dead because of severe depression? Does that mean Brandon will never come back? That man probably thinks this five million is already more than what we deserve.

 

When the Emmanuels finally realized how serious the matter was, they all panicked. “That’s not what happened. Please, you have to get him to come back. We’ll explain everything.”

“No. He’s never going to come back.” With that, the assistant turned around indifferently and left the family to their own thoughts.

Suddenly, they heard a loud bang from behind and realized that Matilda had fallen off her wheelchair.

A week after that, news of Matilda’s death spread to Jadeborough.

“Your aunt just passed away. Will you be going to her funeral?” asked Sasha after making her way downstairs to Sebastian.
