The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian)
Chapter 1073

Sasha who knew her daughter very well, started connecting the dots. “What's wrong? Why did shesuddenly ask you to bathe her?” she asked anxiously.

“Um... The parent-teacher conference didn't go well,” that man spat out those words stiffly throughgritted teeth. He seemed to be a little frustrated in the video call.

Sasha fell silent as many possibilities of what might have happened ran through her mind.

Then, she turned away to suppress her laughter.

Forget it, let's drop the topic. Otherwise, I'll land myself in hot soup too.

Sasha switched to an earlier subject, “Connor's wife opened a hotel in Dragon Valley.”

“Dragon Valley?” He was surprised.

Sasha nodded. “Yup. I've been there. It's not a bad location, quite near to the State Guesthouse.”"When did she get into the White House social circle?”

Wow, one can't be more direct than that!

Annoyance laced his icy tone. Sasha could sense the hostility portrayed in his expression over thephone.

She shrugged her shoulders. “I'm not sure. Do you want to investigate further?”

“No need!” Sebastian rejected the idea immediately.

He picked up the phone and sat down in front of the camera without buttoning up his shirt. “Youdon't have to do anything. Just come back tomorrow, and I'll handle this matter.”

The last line sounded like a command.

Nothing is more important than her safety.

Sasha hung up the call

That night, a platoon appeared unannounced at Shirley's newly opened hotel. Within half an hour,more than ten pounds of drugs were seized.

The fierce knocking on the door woke Shirley up.

Fearfully, she went to answer the door. As soon as she opened it, a group of people rushed in atonce and landed a kick on her chest.

“Restrain her and bring her to Old Mr. Jadeson!”

It was Mark. His bloodshot eyes were staring at Shirley with a malicious intent.

Upon being kicked, Shirley was shocked to her wits and fainted right away.

Two hours later around midnight, the news about the hotel being ransacked got to a man in asuburb bistro. Standing behind the curtain, he was so furious that he flipped the table in front of hisbed.

“I thought things were going really well? Why did something like this happen all of a sudden?”“Um... The granddaughter-in-law of Jonathan came by unexpectedly. During the day, she wentlooking for Shirley with the woman from Gossamer Creek. Who knew that fool gave it away...” aman in black reported while kneeling before the curtain. This time, his fingers were fine, and he didnot seem frail and feeble.

"Granddaughter-in-law? Are you referring to the woman who couldn't save Baylor?”

"Yes!" The silhouette bowed even lower.

Shadows like them did not deserve a chance to introduce their names to the master, except forBaylor.

The man behind the curtain let out a devilish cackle. In a pitch dark environment, his voice wasexceptionally terrifying, giving others goosebumps.

“How annoying! Fine. Jonathan has been trying so hard to drive people around him away. Now, wedo have one offering herself voluntarily. So, we shall accept her with open arms. Take her as anappetizer.”

“Master, you mean...”

"Get rid of her.” the man instructed placidly.

Upon hearing that, the shadow was taken aback and momentarily went against the rule by lifting hishead. “Master, you..."

Bang! A crisp gunshot was heard.

Before he could finish his sentence, a bullet was sent right into his collarbone. Still kneeling down onthe floor, he cupped his wound to stop the blood from gushing out and collapsed on the floor.“Are you disobeying me?”

“No... No... I'm just trying to remind you that Sebastian isn't aware of us, Master. But... if we kill hiswife, he... he may launch a crazy attack back at us...” The shadow curled into a fetal position, lying ina pool of blood. Yet, he endured the excruciating pain felt in order to give his master an answer.Sebastian Hayes. Indeed, he's our number one enemy. Hence, it's best not to offend him whereverpossible.

The man behind the curtain clenched his jaw as he was rendered speechless.

“Leave!” His angry bark rang through the room which was filled with a pungent stench of blood.Subsequently, the shadow dragged his injured body out, one step at a time. Shortly after, his masterleft the place too.

The night then returned to its tranquil atmosphere.

As for the hotel situated in Dragon Valley, it was reduced to ashes by a blazing fire after beingraided by Mark and his troop.

However, nobody knew that Sasha was taken away by a helicopter way before Mark made a move.When Sasha woke up the next morning, she found herself on the bed at Frontier Bay.

Splendid!
