The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian)
Chapter 1883

Upon hearing that, lan fell into silence.

lan’s face was flushed with embarrassment and panic. In fact, he looked like he had done somethingshameful, and he had nothing to say to defend himself. Susan then saw lan running back into theapartment.

Right then, disappointment crushed Susan like a boulder.

She had no idea how to describe what she was feeling at that precise moment, but if being on Ian'sback was heaven, then what she had just encountered had made her feel like she was in hell.

She had never felt so devastated before in her life.

"Susan, what you did tonight was brilliant, but did you see that? You've lost. He actually cares aboutthese things. Although you keep saying there's nothing going on between the both of you, I don'tthink he's on the same page as you.” Sigrun stared at her and added salt to her wound.

Hearing that, Susan felt even worse.

That night, she had no idea how she returned home, nor did she know how the night went by. Allshe could remember was that when the sun came up, she was still sitting in her chair and staringblankly at the window. Back then, he wasn't the slightest bit bothered. On the other hand, it was me.I was scared, and I had backed away. That was what caused US to separate in the first place. Afterthat, lan decided to forget all about it. Why does he care again now that I'm back? Is this karma? Isthis what I get for being a coward back then?

Susan couldn't help but shiver when those thoughts ran through her mind.

"Aunt Susan, are you up yet? We're going to have breakfast before going to class.” Vivian knockedon her door worriedly when she didn't see Susan coming out of her room.

Only then did Susan jolt to her senses after being in a daze all night long. "Vivi, I have something todeal with today, so I'll attend class later. You guys should just go ahead.”

"A-All right..." With that, Vivian left.

Half an hour later, Susan finally got up from her chair after everyone had left the apartment. Shethen dragged herself into the restroom like a mindless zombie.

What am I supposed to do? I wouldn't have a chance if he had already blocked off his memory andbuilt a barrier between US because of our familial ties.

As she washed her face with cold water, she finally knew the pain lan felt when she said those wordsto him back then

Susan headed out after that. Instead of going to her university, she went to the embassy.

"Ms. Limmer, you're here! I'm sorry, but I only found out you're studying here after receiving aphone call from the White House yesterday. Please look through the accommodation andtransportation we've arranged for you and let US know If you're happy with the arrangements.”

It turned out that the embassy had specially arranged accommodation and a car for her right afterreceiving a phone call from the White House.

Susan was slightly startled. So my identity has really changed, and these people had taken theinitiative to attend to me.

"Mister, is it okay if I take some time to think it through?”

"Sure! However, since you're a descendant of the Limmer family, Mdm. Bennett, the wife of theMinister of Foreign Affairs, would like to see you today. Will you be available? She's eager to meetyou because she's an admirer of your grandpa,” the person in charge of the embassy asked.

The wife of the Minister of Foreign Affairs? Susan was confused, and she didn't know what to decidebecause she had never met someone of that status.

"W-Why does she want to meet me? I don't understand. I'm just a student,” Susan uttered.

"It's nothing. She just wants to have a meal with you.” The person in charge smiled.

Without a choice, Susan agreed.

That day, Susan spent a long time at Mdm. Bennett's house and she didn't go to the university. Shedidn't inform Vivian and the rest because the person in charge told her they would send her back inthe afternoon.

However, in the afternoon, something came up, and Mdm. Bennett had to leave. "Ms. Limmer,would you like to visit the museum? I heard that the museum has things that belonged to yourgrandfather. If you do, I can get you there.”

"Really?" Susan's eyes lit up.

Although she had never met her grandfather before, all she had for him was admiration. Besides,she was related to him, so she wanted to know more about him.

Susan agreed to visit the museum. Before Mdm. Bennett excused herself, she told a secondlieutenant of the embassy, Vincent, to send Susan there.

"Ms. Limmer, this way, please.” Vincent was around twenty-five, and he was a handsome man.Apparently, he was also from an aristocratic family.

Despite that, he treated Susan with the utmost politeness.

After getting into the car, Susan asked, "Is the place we're going far from here? I might have to gohome in a while, otherwise, my friends will get worried about me.”

As Vincent was driving, he looked at the beautiful Astorian girl through the rear-view mirror andcomforted her, "It's about half an hour away. Don't worry, Ms. Limmer. After the museum, I'll sendyou back personally."q
