Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 541

Karl slashed Hanako’s face repeatedly even after she stopped breathing. He simply could not get over the fact that this woman wanted to cut Sasha’s face.

“Karl… That’s enough…”

He did not stop until Sasha called out to him with a shaky voice.

When he finally stopped, he stood motionless for a while before turning around.

“I’m sorry I came late, Madam. I didn’t know you’re here. I…”

Karl felt so guilty he could not even look Sasha in the eyes.

He could not believe he did not even recognize the woman beside Sebastian was just an impersonator. As someone who had undergone strict training and had Sebastian’s absolute trust, he could not believe he almost failed to protect Sasha.

If Sebastian had not realized this earlier, Sasha could have died here. Then, he would have to live in guilt for the rest of her life.

“It’s okay… I know you guys will save me one day…”

Sasha was still recovering from the shock.

Her eyes were brimmed with tears.

Although her vision was still blurry, she could tell that Karl was blaming himself, so she comforted him.

Before Karl could say anything, he heard footsteps and shouts outside. Someone had found out about his intrusion.

“Madam, we should get going.”

Sasha nodded lightly.

Next, Karl untied her, carried her in his arms, and fled the house.

Within minutes, Sebastian received a text and a few photos from Karl.

All the voices at the press conference instantly became muted as he squinted at the photos.

The woman sitting beside Karl looked exactly the same as the woman sitting beside Sebastian, but Sebastian could still tell that the real Sasha was the one he was looking at on the screen.

He could feel the sense of familiarity even through the screen.

Madam is safe. We are on the way back to Avenport. I’m sorry I was late.

Karl apologized and promised to bring her back home safely.

Sebastian clenched his fists to stop himself from shaking. After he calmed down, he texted back. How is she? She doesn’t look good. What did they do to her?

Karl’s fingers froze as he looked at his phone and then at the woman beside him who had fallen asleep.
