Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 859

Macy: Good morning, Mr. Hayes.

However, there was no forthcoming reply.

Gah! Sebastian regards my greeting messages as utter nonsense! In the beginning, he’d still answer with a question mark, but he now ignores it completely!

Putting herself out there, Sasha sent him another message.

Mr. Hayes, I noticed my daughter has been behaving out of character these days. She hated studying in the past, but she’s now keen to go to school.

Sasha didn’t dare to share her feelings directly, so she used Vivian’s recent unusual behavior to attract Sebastian’s attention.

 

That did the trick.

Sebastian: That’s because you haven’t been a good mother in the past.

 

Whoa! Everything was fine. Why is he criticizing me again?

A spark of disgruntlement flared within Sasha.

Macy: How am I not a good mother? I’ve always taken good care of her.

Sebastian responded with a few sneering emoticons. Is locking her alone in the warehouse considered taking good care of her? Does that also include leaving her alone at home to fend for herself?

As rage brewed within her, Sasha had the sudden urge to respond with an emoticon covered in bruises.

When did I lock her in the warehouse? Back in Jetroina, I deliberately left Vivian with Solomon at his bar to deal with you! It was also inconvenient for Karl to show himself in public. Argh! What a b*stard!

Sasha wanted to chat a bit more, but a nurse came for her.

“Dr. West, the patient in Room 16 is asking for you. There seems to be a problem.”

“Okay, I’ll be right there.”

Sasha put down her phone and left immediately for Baylor’s ward.

Baylor has been behaving himself. Why is he suddenly asking to see me? Could he be in pain?

At that thought, she inexorably quickened her pace.

“Let’s face reality! The treatments make no difference to his condition. Why can’t you let him live out his remaining days peacefully?”

“What are you saying? Nothing is set in stone. There’s no improvement because Baylor has been refusing treatments. That doesn’t mean there’s no cure!”

“How dare-”

Sasha hadn’t expected to see two women in an intense argument about Baylor, her patient.
