Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1976

Chapter 1976 My Daughter

That evening, both of them left the office under everyone’s nose and headed to the hotel. No one dared to lift their head and steal a glance at the couple, let alone make any passing comment about it.

So, she’s his fiancée! Who would have thought that a plain Jane like Susan was the one who stole the show at the much-anticipated engagement ceremony held by the Jadesons three years ago? How could we be so blind and fail to recognize our lady boss?

Ian and Susan walked out of the company arm in arm. “I was told that the villa is ready. Shall we pay the place a visit?” Upon getting into the car, Ian turned his head sideways and asked as he recalled Melvin’s words.

There was a sparkle in Susan’s eyes when she heard the news. “Sure! Let’s go there now.”

Finally, she was not as dejected as the time when she first returned from Atlantius. The way Ian had publicly defended and protected her during the day, coupled with his distinctive sense of dominance, appeased her resentment.

Looking at Susan, a thought flashed through Ian’s mind. What is she thinking? We’ve been through so much to be together. Even if doom’s day is approaching, she has no reason to doubt my love for her.

Soon after, the couple headed to the new villa. Everything had been pre-arranged by Solomon. Before their return, he had instructed Melvin to source for a great unit and purchase it in advance. This was so that the couple could move in right away.

“Wow!”

Susan was overjoyed the moment she opened the huge doors with beautiful floral designs carved on them. Although it was not a very large villa, the Erihalian style luxurious decoration made it look tremendously grand and magnificent.

“This is such a nice house. In the future, we can furnish it and gradually build our dream home together.”

“What do you have in mind?”

Seeing her eyes all lit up, Ian switched off his buzzing phone and accompanied her for a stroll around the garden.

“We can plant some flowers over here. If you like, we can also reserve a plot to grow some vegetables. Oh, we can create a permaculture garden and grow lots of pineapples!”

“Pineapples?”

Ian was fascinated by the idea.

With great interest, he approached Susan and looked in the direction that she had pointed. At that moment, he could picture in his head a garden full of sweet pineapples.

It’s going to be very lovely.

In the past three years, they had a home of their own in Jadeborough, which was gifted to them by Sigrith.

It was a rather small unit, only about a thousand square-foot, located in a commercial building. However, they designed and decorated every nook and cranny themselves according to their preference and made it their ideal home.

Hence, that was their favorite place whenever they were in Jadeborough.

None of their seniors living in Oceanic Estate had an opinion about it.

After dinner, Ian went shopping with Susan, just like what they used to do when they first moved into their old house.

Susan asked, “Ian, shall we change the style this round? We went with a minimalist interior the last time. Why don’t we go with Erihalian royal court-style decorations and furnishings?”

While they were selecting furniture, Susan picked up an artistic nightstand and asked the man standing next to her cheekily.
