Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 152

“Mr. Leonard, let go of my mother! Do you want to further infuriate my daddy? It won’t go well for you!” Matteo warned, in the nick of time.

Raymond released his grasp as though he was electrocuted.

“I’m… I’m sorry, I didn’t know. I thought…” Raymond stammered.

“Mr. Leonard, even if my father isn’t the president of Hayes Corporation, this is still no way to treat a lady, you got that? You went too far,” Matteo continued, determined to give Raymond a piece of his mind.

After saying that, he stretched out an arm to pull his unsteady mother to her feet.

“Mommy, are you all right?” Matteo asked concernedly.

Sasha was distressed. It was unbelievable that with all the effort she’d made to leave Avenport behind, this man still managed to track her down.

It was a frustrating and embarrassing experience to be cornered by her past which she sought so desperately to escape.

“I’m fine, Matteo. Mr. Leonard had too much to drink today. Why don’t you bring your sister and we’ll get out of here,” Sasha smoothed the front of her skirt and tried to appear calm and dignified.

The boys were speechless, as was Sebastian who had just rescued her. He gritted his teeth in irritation at her obstinance.

Why couldn’t he keep his hands to himself?

Why does he have to trouble himself to be kind to her? After she’d kidnapped his sons, he not only did not teach her a lesson, yet rescued her at the first chance he got. He’s reinforcing the notion that she has nothing to fear from him, is that it?

If this is the way she wants to play, so be it.

Sebastian’s temper flared up again. With a wave of his hand, a guard snapped to attention and marched smartly into the room.

“Mr. Hayes,” said the guard.

“Take the children.” Sebastian ordered.

“Yes, Mr. Hayes,” he complied.

“What are you doing, Sebastian? What right do you have to take them away from me?” Sasha cried in fear and held them close to her bosom.

“Me? Wasn’t that what you were doing?” Sebastian laughed coldly. “You whisked all three away without a word before. Have some sense of shame.”

At that, he gestured at his guard to grab the children.

Sasha went berserk.

Without regard for the scene she was causing, she grabbed her skirt and ran after them, screaming “Sebastian, you monster! You return my kids to me. They are mine, do you hear me?”

Her heart-wrenching sobs and yells followed Sebastian to his car.

Luke, who was at the driver’s seat, glanced uneasily at the rearview mirror. He could see the stumbling and deranged figure of Sasha in pursuit. “Mr. Hayes, perhaps there is a better way to handle this. Like it or not, Ms. Wand is still their mother.”
