Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 618

Finally, Karl led Sasha out of the ward.

“Mrs. Hayes, Madam Frieda has just passed on and Mr. Hayes is very emotional. He doesn’t mean to hurt you. The incident this morning was very traumatic to him. Please do not take it to heart. Let him calm down.”

She was trembling all over. Holding her handbag tight in her hands, her hands were so tightly clenched that her nails were digging into her palms, almost cutting into her flesh.

She had never been so frightened before.

Neither had she ever felt so sad.

However, after listening to this bodyguard’s words, she was somewhat comforted.

“I… I never meant to harm him or let his mother get harmed.”

“I know. It’s just that what happened last night was too traumatic for him. Madam Frieda was always mentally unsound. Perhaps, before this happened, Mr. Hayes and his mother did not bond very well.”

“Nevertheless, last night, on the train, when the Jadesons wanted to shoot Mr. Hayes, Frieda shielded him without hesitation. That was simply too much for him or even anyone to bear.”

When Karl came to this part, his voice was really solemn.

It was as if there was a heavy load upon him and he struggled to breathe.

Pitter patter. Sasha’s tears came splattering down again.

After some time, with tears in her voice, she asked, “So, does he know his own identity now?”

Karl nodded. “Not at first. Later, when he discovered that Madam Frieda was abducted by Devin’s men, he caught up with the train and then he found out.”

Sasha listened without interrupting.

Again she felt the agonizing pain as if being cut by a knife. She stood with her head lowered and had another emotional breakdown.

“I… I had no choice but to hide the truth from him. When I was imprisoned in Jetroina by Yancy, she told me this. Every day, she threatened to publicize his identity so that he would be despised as an illegitimate child. How could I tell him about that?”

Tearfully, she told the bodyguard the truth.

For so long she had kept this secret which was like a time bomb, threatening her every minute and every second, keeping her wary and exhausting the very life out of her.

So, when she talked about it, she felt a great relief.

Karl was astounded when he heard about it!

She knew about this so early?

It looks like she has been under extreme stress all this while. Furthermore, she cannot be blamed for Madam Frieda’s death. Everything she did was for Mr. Hayes.

Karl returned to the ward.

After the explosive vent just now, the ward had become quiet again.
