Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Sebastian stopped in the air as his worried gaze fell on the boy he had been looking for the past hour. Ian’s eyes were watered with tears and his nose was red.

Sebastian’s hand gradually lowered and guilt budded in his heart. He knew he should not have lashed out at Ian for no reason. The kid would not have run away if he had not lost his temper.

Sebastian knelt down before Ian, trying to soften his voice.

But he never expected that his gentle tone would make that stubborn boy broke down in tears. Ian ran up into his embrace and dug his head in Sebastian’s chest. “Daddy…”

After everything that happened at Sasha’s place, Ian could not hold it in any longer when he saw Sebastian. Hot tears rolled down his cheeks, soaking Sebastian’s shirt wet.

Ian felt Mommy and his siblings had all forsaken him.

And the only person he had now was Daddy. Sebastian was his only comfort when the whole world turned against him.

Sebastian slowly wrapped his hands around the wailing child, not knowing how to react.

“What happened, Ian? Daddy’s here. Tell me what happened.”

Sebastian’s voice was rigid and awkward. He had attended countless business talks at work but never had he felt this nervous and helpless.

A thought flickered in his mind and the expression on his face instantly hardened. I’ll turn the whole Avenport upside down if I find out who did this to my child.
