Sasha’s tears instantly threatened to fall.
She managed to push them back in the end, though.
“It’s fine. He’s actually pretty nice to me… aside from that matter. Also, he was not the reason I ran away with the kids. The culprit was… Sebastian.”
“That punk?”
As suspected, the elderly man turned stern at the mere mention of his son-in-law.
Sasha quickly explained, “Don’t get agitated, Dad. There were a lot of misunderstandings between the two of us at that time. Plus, you knew I am the reason he was locked away for years…”
Rufus couldn’t reply.
He paused for a moment before he decided to stop talking about the matter.
As the father, it was only natural that Rufus knew all about what happened in the past.
The father-daughter duo stayed there for a little longer.
It was almost winter, but the sun was up that day. Still, the sky was a little dark, and the icy wind kept howling, so it didn’t need to snow to get everyone to shiver in cold.
Sasha was about to make some warm tea when Rufus suddenly stood up and asked, “I heard a rumor about how Solomon is back. Is that true? What’s up with the kid? How did he turn out like this? I can’t believe he actually tried to harm you.”
Rufus asked with a furious expression on.
Sasha instantly paused.
Oh right! Sasha had forgotten how Solomon was the boy that Yancy had entrusted her mom to raise. Dad definitely knows about him since Mom was the one who raised him.
Sasha suddenly realized something. She immediately answered, “This is all because of Yancy. Did you know? She never died!”
“What did you just say? She’s alive?” blurted Rufus, who was very shocked.
“Yeah, she is alive the entire time. Solomon caused all that trouble because he was working together with his mom. I don’t know when he discovered that his mom was alive, but he got in touch with her soon after he left our home.”
Rufus couldn’t speak.
He was so angry that he almost passed out.
