Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 427

“Assistant?”

“Yes. He seems to have gone to Wildefield.”

Wildefield? Sebastian had never heard of such a place. Nevertheless, he wanted Karl to keep an eye on this person and report to him once he observed any unusual activity.

Luke was about to take his leave, but having overheard the conversation, he could not help asking, “Mr. Hayes, are you suspecting that Madam is in Solomon’s hands?”

“I don’t know for sure, but he’s definitely involved in this somehow.” Sebastian’s answer indicated that he was indeed suspicious of Solomon. During the incident at Empire State Tower, it was Sasha who saved me when things went out of control. When Karl went back for her, she was supposedly dead. However, one detail that everyone seemed to have overlooked was how easy it was for Karl to get me out of there. Solomon had planted traps everywhere. He had bribed the police and had many men waiting in ambush throughout the building. If Karl had not stopped me from leaving the storeroom, I could easily have been captured or maimed! So how did we manage to escape without being stopped? There can only be one reason. Sasha must have struck a deal with Solomon.

Bang!

As Sebastian thought about all that, he felt a stabbing pain in his heart. Out of frustration, he rammed his fist onto the table.

Startled by Sebastian’s reaction, Luke said, “Mr. Hayes, please… please calm down. We already have some information on our hands. We’ll keep a tighter watch on Solomon. I believe we’ll receive news about Madam soon.”

Sebastian was silent.

There was nothing else he could do except to stay calm. If he lost control of his emotions, there would be no one left to save that silly woman. Sasha, wait for me. I’m coming for you soon.

In the afternoon, Roxanne paid a visit to Sebastian’s office with some dishes that she prepared herself.

She had been his main caretaker all this while, looking after not only his medical needs but also every other aspect of his life.

However, on that day, she noticed that there was a change in the way she was addressed by the people in the office. “Good afternoon, Ms. Rocke. Nice to see you.”

“Good day, Ms. Rocke. Are you looking for Mr. Hayes?”

“How may I help you, Ms. Rocke?”

It was the same with everyone from the doorman at the entrance of the building to the secretary from Sebastian’s office.

They were no longer addressing her as “Madam” like they used to.

What’s up with everyone? Roxanne was beginning to feel annoyed as she walked toward Sebastian’s office carrying her containers of food. Just when she was about to enter, she overheard two men talking as they were stepping out of the office. “So many people have already been sent to Jetroina. So why is President still asking us to go there?”

“Why does it matter? Now that he knows Madam is still alive, President will spare no effort to search for her. Just do as you’re told.”

“All right.”

When Roxanne heard that, she almost tripped over herself. Madam is still alive? Who are they referring to? Could it be me? Or are they talking about the other woman?

She felt like someone had poured a bucket of cold water over her head. In a matter of seconds, her mood had hit rock bottom.
