Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1906

Snapping out of her shock, Sasha folded her arms over her chest and calmly watched the two girls argue.

It looks like I was wrong earlier. It wasn’t that Susan didn't care about my son, but she buried her feelings for him deep inside her. However, she'll turn into a lioness on any issues related to Ian.

Memories of Devin's incident rose to her forefront. I remembered the scene when Sabrina went to Yaleview alone. Why are all these women so tough?

"Say something!"

Crack!

The already furious Susan had rage pouring through her when Sigrun didn't respond. In her blind haze of rage, she unconsciously tightened her grip on Sigrun's finger, eliciting the sound of something breaking.

The sound triggered Sasha's temper.

"All right. Susan, calm down. Let me handle this."

Sasha hurriedly came up to the two girls and extracted Sigrun's fingers from Susan's grip when Susan was about to choke Sigrun.

She wouldn't have gotten this mad if she didn't care about my son's well-being, so she must've valued Ian's life more than hers.

Sasha gently patted Susan's back in an effort to calm her down.

 

The gentleness in her gaze turned sharp as she directed it toward Sigrun. The soft expression on her face turned stony.

"Ms. Lightburn, I'll Inform your father about this once I return. I also want to talk to you about something else. Even though Old Mr. Jadeson and your grandfather were the ones who decided on your engagement with Ian, I've already told Ian's father prior that we would respect Ian's wishes. So I asked Ian about the engagement last night, and he disapproved of it because he doesn't have feelings for you. With that, I'll have Old Mr. Jadeson visit your grandfather later to give him an explanation to annul the engagement."

Since Sasha was already confronting Sigrun about Ian's memory, she figured she might as well be frank about her decision to call off their engagement too.

Sigrun, who had finally calmed down, felt the world was crashing down on her. On the other hand, Susan snapped her head to Sasha with surprise and glee in her eyes.

So that was what they were talking about last night. The gloominess in her chest finally dispersed. She quickly ducked her head and looked down at her toes, hiding the fact that she was holding back the tears swimming in her eyes.

Sasha pretended not to see Susan's tears and had Susan get in her car, leaving Sigrun there.

Around ten minutes later, Susan had collected herself and finally noticed they weren't heading downtown. Instead, they were on the road back to the apartment.

"Mrs. Hayes, this is...?"

"Yeah, I suddenly remembered Ian hadn't had lunch yet, so I think we should return to the apartment. Are you okay with that?" Sasha asked intentionally.

She caught Susan immediately dropping her head to glance at her watch through the rearview mirror. "He hasn't had lunch? Why didn't you say so earlier, Mrs. Hayes? We should hurry back then."
