Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1865

Ian casually told Susan his plan. He respected her decision and allowed her to choose her new identity.

In actuality, Ian had begun planning this during his journey home yesterday.

One could not deny that he inherited Sebastian's intellect. From when Sebastian instructed Karl to begin an investigation to Sebastian’s reaction after finding out about Kilian, Ian could accurately predict Sebastian's every move.

Ian carried out his plan well and deliberately arranged for Karl to find and capture Kilian.

Furthermore, he also provided Killian with what he should say.

The reason Ian did all this was to give Susan a brand new identity and allow her to free herself from the Jadeson family. Then she would not have to worry about the matter anymore.

Ian waited for Susan's response with anticipation.

Unexpectedly, Susan called right after he messaged her.

"Hello? Are you saying you will give me a fake identity to leave the Jadeson family?" Susan said.

"Yes." Ian did not deny it. "You said you were worried about my daddy and the Jadeson family's reputation because of your identity as a Limmer. Since I have resolved this, you don't have to worry anymore."

Susan's hope gradually shattered as she listened to Ian. Her eyes were filled with despair. "Ian, do you understand what I

truly worry about?"

"What is it?"

"I am worried about what the world would think, whether your parents would accept our relationship, and what every member of the Jadeson family would think. Have you considered how much of a blow we would cause them if we revealed our relationship one day?" Susan asked softly on the phone.

That was her true concern. She did not dare to imagine how people would react if they found out about her feelings for Ian. She was Eddie's granddaughter and Ian's aunt. It was improper for her to have such desires.

Ian remained silent.

He took his phone and sat beside the coffee table. He was confused at first. But after he heard what Susan said, his gaze turned dim and cold. "Are you asking me to tell my parents about this?"

That sent Susan into a panic. "N-No! That's not what I meant!"

Disappointment rose from Ian's heart, and he lost the determination in his gaze. Even his affection for her gradually dissipated.

"Susan, you are much weaker than I thought. Since you are that scared, fine, I will do as you wish. From now on, you are still my aunt, and I am still your nephew!" Ian snapped.

With that, he did not give Susan a chance to reply and hung up immediately.

Susan sat stunned like a statue.

It took a long time before she finally recovered her senses. She felt as if someone had dug out something from her chest. She staggered and slumped to the floor.
