Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1852

Ian turned his head and looked at her right after she finished speaking.

Susan saw a breathtaking glow in those beautiful brown eyes.

Her heart skipped a beat as she stared into them.

"You told them?"

"Y-Yes..." answered Susan dazedly.

Ian stopped talking and looked away. It was obvious he was upset about it.

Susan dared not speak again.

She waited for quite some time, but he never said anything. It seemed that his silence was doing a pretty good job of expressing his utter dissatisfaction because it was driving Susan insane.

"D-Don't worry. They are not angry with you at all. In fact, they want you to rest well here. That is why I’ve planned everything for you. If you don't want to go home, you can stay here for a few days, and I'll hang out with you."

Susan didn't actually mean to share all that information. It simply slipped out of her lips.

When she finished speaking, Ian turned his gaze to her.

He was extremely tall, and Susan could tiptoe, but the top of her head still wouldn't be able to reach his chin. Darn it. He's three years younger than me, so why is he taller than me?

The height difference made it so that she had no choice but to lift her head to look into his emotionless eyes. As though granting her a gift, he half-heartedly nodded in agreement.

"Okay..."

 

Susan was speechless once more.

This spoiled brat!

Ian ended up staying in that village after that.

Sebastian, who was at Avenport at the time, burned with anger when he first heard what had happened, but Sasha convinced him to let him go.

Sasha thought that her son had only done something that rebellious to go against his father.

As for the reason he went to Susan...

"Susan has always looked out for Ian even when they were at school. It's not like Ian can go to his siblings after he escaped SteelFort, and he definitely couldn't go to Kurt, who has gone to Xenhall. He didn't have many options, and that was why he went to Yeringham instead," Sasha analyzed.

That reasoning was sound. As far as Sasha and Sebastian were concerned, that was the only possible reason Ian would go there.

He never had many friends, and the incident with Duncan only made him keep his guard even higher. That was why he didn't really know anyone outside the family.

Sebastian agreed with his wife's reasoning.

Still, her words reminded him of a crucial issue he needed to solve.

"Should we help him look for his significant other?"

"Wait, what?" Sasha was surprised to hear that. "Didn't you say that you wouldn't get involved with the kids' love life? Why are you trying to set Ian with someone up now? Are you going back on your words?"
