Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 381

All of a sudden, the woman on top of the pile of rubble turned around and glared at the man with bloodshot eyes.

Why is she holding a grudge against me when I have done her a huge favor by rescuing her in the nick of time?

Her response took him by surprise and rendered him incapable of motion.

Sasha grabbed the opportunity and continued searching for Lance.

Truth be told, no one could possibly make it out alive since the militants had blown up the entire place into pieces. It was an impossible mission to locate the survivors without the aid of professionals.

Nevertheless, Sasha had no intention to give up and continued digging her way through the pile of rubble with her bare hands.

As a result, the disheveled woman ended up with bruises and cuts all over her body.

When she was about to climb her way through a narrow passage and make her way to Dickson’s office, she heard someone yelling at her in a familiar voice, “What are you doing?”

“Huh?”

Sasha, who was on top of an air conditioning pipe, shuddered instantly.

When she turned around after a few seconds, she saw a familiar figure with a disheveled appearance looking at her.

Although he was drenched in blood, she could see his eyes gleaming in the dark.

“Lennie! It turns out that you’re fine! Boohoo—”

Sasha burst into tears, hugging the air conditioning pipe. The woman in her mid-twenties started crying like a helpless little girl.

As the emotions she had been holding back came flooding out, no longer could she pull herself together anymore.

Lance finally made his way to her and brought the woman down. As he did so, he couldn’t help but wonder how she managed to get up there in the first place.

“What are you doing on top of the air conditioning pipe?”

Immediately after he brought her down, he noticed that she had bruises and cuts all over her body. Instantly, the color drained from his lips.

Unable to stop herself from weeping, Sasha sniffled when she heard his question. “I was trying to find you! I thought you were dead! W-Where have you been?”

As soon as she finished her question, she started wailing at the top of her lungs again.

Initially, Lance felt a strong urge to take things out on her, but when he saw her weeping in front of him, he stopped holding a grudge against her.

Knowing that she truly cared about him, his rage vanished into thin air.

“I had been staying in the corner over there.”

“Huh?” Sasha wiped her tears dry and asked, “Y-You had been staying over there? W-Why didn’t you look for me? W-Weren’t you worried about me at all?”

I can’t believe that’s what she’s thinking right now…
