Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 397

“Who lets you—” Sebastian stopped abruptly.

Indeed, he was furious. He had not gotten much sleep, and it was dawn when he was finally about to doze off. However, he had barely closed his eyes when he heard a knock on the door.

“Hi, it’s been a while. Oh, did I wake you up? I’m sorry. I came to look for you because… I wanted to ask you, may I take Matteo and Little Ian to the Wand family’s residence today? I… I’m moving in today,” Sasha said nervously, her palms sweaty.

The moment he opened the door and glared at her like he was about to eat her alive, she felt a shiver run down her spine.

Is he angry that I’m here? No, even if he is angry, I can’t back down. I’ve got to persist. Only then will I stand a chance.

Sasha swallowed hard. “Also, I’d like to invite y-you to… join us. Is that okay?”

She put aside her pride, something she had never done before, and looked at him cautiously with wide eyes. She looked like a well-behaved kitten waiting to be petted.

Sebastian narrowed his eyes.

For a split second, he was about to relent.

He had never seen her like that nor heard her try to be nice to him before. As far as he could remember, they were like two prickly hedgehogs and as stubborn as rocks when they were together. They just rubbed each other the wrong way.

So what’s she up to now? The Wand family has risen from the ashes, and she has achieved her goal. Does she feel that something is missing in her life if the kids aren’t with her?

Instantly, the emotional turbulence raging within him subsided. It was like he turned into a completely different person.

“Ms. Wand, are you perhaps confused? Do we still have any form of relationship?” he asked coldly.

“Huh?” Sasha felt like she was struck by lightning.

“Why should I go to your house? I already have a fiancée, so we should keep our distance. Or do you want my fiancée to misunderstand?” he retorted. His harsh words showed his disapproval of what she had said and his protectiveness over his fiancée.

Sasha was dumbfounded.

She could not believe he would tell her off like that and that he would be so protective of Roxanne.

Did he really lose his memory? Otherwise, why would he say such mean things? Doesn’t he know that it’ll hurt my feelings?

Sasha’s eyes reddened. “No. You… Why are you…” she stammered.

“What about me? Sasha Wand, the fact that I didn’t stop you from seeing the kids was my way of showing you mercy. I hope you won’t try to take things too far. Otherwise, don’t blame me if you don’t even get to see the kids!” he snapped.

With that, he slammed the door shut with a loud bang.
