The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian) -
Chapter 1536
After three peaceful years, it never crossed Sasha's mind that their family would go through anotherturmoil
She had completely lost herself in the tranquil and blissful moments until the day finally arrived.Upon landing, she tracked his smartphone location and traveled there immediately.
Much to her surprise, she discovered that the place was none other than the thousand-year-oldtemple hidden in the mountains.
Why? Why is he here? What happened to him?
Sasha stumbled her way into the temple. Passing by fumes of sandalwood smoke and following thefaint chanting voices, she found herself at the gate of the main hall. She looked across it and sawShin sitting on the floor with his legs crossed.
Sensing her presence, he took a side glance at her.
Sasha was in extreme shock when their eyes met.
With just one glance, she saw a usually nonchalant gaze shrouded in gloom.
Her mind went blank, and she collapsed onto the ground.
When Sasha regained her consciousness, it was already nightfall.
She opened her bleary eyes and saw the warm orange lights in the ever-familiar meditation abode.She moved slowly, trying to prop herself up.
“You're awake?" Devin asked as he rushed over to assist her.
Sasha looked straight into his eyes and queried, “What happened to him?”
He said nothing.
After a long pause, Devin stood by her bed and broke the silence. “When he was driving home onenight, he passed by a tunnel. Suddenly, the walls caved in and buried him. Since the moment he wasbrought to safety, he has never... never woken up.”
“What?”
The news came as a bombshell, leaving a ghastly Sasha slumped against the bed. She could notutter a single word for the longest time.
The walls caved in all of a sudden? How come? Why didn't it happen at any other time but when hewas driving through it?
Bursting into tears, she wailed hysterically. Her mind was all over the place, and she seemed to loseher sanity gradually.
“The walls collapsed? That's a planned murder! There is no coincidence in this world. Did the peoplefrom the White House do it? Is it them? Those useless bastards! How could they harm him justbecause he's more capable?” she bellowed in rage as she struggled to get off the bed, wanting totake revenge on those people.
Devin stopped her with all his might.
“Calm down, Sasha. It's not what you think.”
“It's not? Then, what is it? Is it a real accident? Let me tell you, Devin. When I was at his office theother day, I heard the gossip with my own ears. Those pieces of trash were displeased with him. Itried to persuade him to get out of it, but he wanted to stabilize the political situation first. Whatgives? Why did they do this to him? Aren't they afraid of karma?” she kept roaring furiously.Battling with the suffocating thought that Sebastian was harmed intentionally, she channeled all ofher frustration into an endless scream.
Her heart ached so badly that her eyes turned bloodshot red.
Those people are the real monsters. They have totally forgotten about the price that the Jadesonshave to pay in order to trade for the halcyon days that lasted this long. Why did they do this to him?Don't they know that he's the one holding the fort? These people should go to hell!
Shortly after, Sasha cried herself unconscious.
Upon receiving the news, Jonathan and the rest of the family rushed over to see her. Subsequently,they locked the door, fearing that she would do something aggressive out of anger.
Devin asked, “Grandpa?”
Jonathan replied, “Let's go down the mountain. I thought I could spend the rest of my days in thisserene place happily, but apparently, they didn't want me to. Fine, I shall grant them their finalwish!”
Though Jonathan was already pushing ninety, he still exuded an intimidating aura, especially whenhe uttered the last line through gritted teeth under the dim light.
Then, Devin left with him, leaving Shin behind to take care of the couple.
Ironically, the young man who used to chat over a cup of tea with him was now lying motionless onthe bed while being plugged into a ventilator. Next to him was a complete set of surveillancedevices.
The entire meditation abode had been transformed into a well-equipped room filled withtechnologies.
Sasha, who was locked in the room next to his, was asleep after she fainted
In the evening, a coup took place.
When the news about what had happened to Sebastian went viral, the entire military base startedgetting ready to oust him from power.
However, it did not take long before Jonathan personally led Devin to destroy that bunch of uselesspricks.
It was an irony.
Just like what Sasha had lamented, the Jadesons fought their best three years ago to trade for thepeace they could now enjoy. Yet, three years later, this precious tranquility was ruined in the handsof incapable rulers.
Sebastian, Sasha, and their family almost died defending themselves in the chaos. Never in a millionyears would they have imagined this was how the White House would repay the Jadesons.
After dissolving the army, Jonathan headed straight into the congress hall.
“Lo and behold, I, Jonathan Jadeson, am still alive and kicking! It has only been days since I went upto the mountains, so how dare you lay your dirty fingers on my grandson? Are you really thinkingthat our time is up? That it's the end of an era after three years in power? Dream on! I'll show youwho's the boss.”
With that, Jonathan pulled the trigger without hesitation and put a bullet through the head of thePresident!
