Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1534

Chapter 1534 Slander

What kind of a lifestyle is this?

Sasha did not know much about Sebastian’s work, but she could see how exhausted he was every single day. He would literally fall asleep as soon as he hit the bed. In addition, he always wore a frown any time of the day.

He also seemed to have gotten a lot thinner.

“How is it? Has he signed yours?”

“Not yet. It’s been two days, but I’m still queueing for my turn.”

 

Just then, she overheard some chatters outside of the office.

Tilting her head to take a peek, Sasha saw that two men dressed in suits were waiting in line to discuss business with Sebastian.

 

Their grim expressions said it all.

“Me too. Actually, I find it strange that we must all get his approval when he’s not representing the White House. Why must it be this way since he has decided to stay here instead of working at the White House?”

“Shh!” the other man gestured to the first guy to lower his voice.

“Beware, walls do have ears. It’s fine that you’re telling me this, but never say a word elsewhere.”

“I…”

“I know that you’re dissatisfied, but there’s no other way to get through this. He’s the man who has all the power—whatever he says goes. White House? Hmph! That’s just his marionette.”

Soon, more nasty things were said as the duo continued to gossip.

Hearing all those awful comments, Sasha felt a wave of fury surge within her. She clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles turned white.

Marionette? He treats the White House as his mere puppet? How could they utter such nonsense? Ever since Grandpa’s retirement, he’s been shouldering all these responsibilities and careful planning to ensure that the foreign countries aren’t preying on us. Had it not been for his selfless love for the nation, he wouldn’t want to swamp himself with endless work!

Livid, Sasha was on the verge of bursting.

In the end, she suppressed her anger and remained inside the office to wait for Sebastian.

When he got back to the room, she started chatting with him.

“Sebby, how long do you plan to work? Ichika delivered a baby boy this afternoon. When are you free? Let’s go back to Avenport.”

“Oh, the baby has arrived?”

He was having a headache after back-to-back meetings.

Sasha replied, “Yes, Solomon posted some updates in the group chat. So, when will you have time?”

“Not now; I still have my hands full. Go ahead if you want to pay them a visit. I’ll get Mark to take care of all household matters in your absence.”

He doesn’t intend to stop working, does he? Even worse, he’s asking me to go back all by myself!
