Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1863

Sebastian returned to Frontier Bay and saw Ian sitting in the living room.

He thought Ian would be doing well in just half a month's time after his escapejudging from what the other children had secretly informed him.

However, Ian now looked nothing like what he had expected.

"What happened to you? How did you end up like this? Did you get into a fight?" Sebastian asked bewilderedly.

He stood before Ian and saw that not only were his clothes dirty, but there were also various bruises on his face.

Sebastian grew furious. He had always thought Ian was the most obedient of his three children because he had raised Ian himself.

Ian had always followed the rules and behaved wisely since he was little. He would never get into a fight.

Therefore, Sebastian wondered what had happened to Ian.

"Yesterday, your Aunt Susan sent me a message saying you are coming home. But you sent me another message later saying that you won't be returning. What is going on?"

Ian sat silently on the couch for a few minutes before turning to Sebastian and said, "Daddy, why did you keep Eddie's descendants as a part of the Jadeson family? Aren't you worried that the people will criticize you if the matter is exposed?"

"What do you mean?" Sebastian narrowed his eyes.

Why is Ian suddenly asking such a strange question? Did something happen to him? Did the remnants of Eddie’s followers find him and speak to him?

 

Sebastian was an intelligent man. He went through every possibility in his head within a few seconds.

"Why should I be worried? Your Aunt Susan and her brother have nothing to do with Eddie other than being his blood relations. They were never involved in any matters related to him."

"Then... does that mean you won't take it to heart if someone threatens you with this matter?"

Sebastian's words were like a cardiac stimulant, reviving Ian's depressed heart.

Sebastian continued to observe Ian.

He had raised Ian, so he could see that something was wrong with him.

He did not answer Ian's question but called Wendy, the housemaid, to prepare a bath for Ian and get him to rest before calling Karl over.

"I want you to investigate what happened to Ian in Yeringham yesterday."

"Mr. Hayes, do you mean..." Karl instantly sensed that something was wrong upon hearing Sebastian's instruction.

"He's been asking me about Susan and Eddie's relationship since he came back. I want you to investigate what Susan is hiding. When I was at the university, I found it strange that a girl like her could keep escaping from being in danger from Eddie's men."

Sebastian's expression turned solemn, and his tone suddenly grew cold as he spoke.
