The Love that Never Really Dies

Sasha subconsciously held her breath and immediately averted her gaze. “Come here, Ian.” Sebastian’s eyes did not immediately find Sasha when she came in. Instead, he asked his son to come over first, indicating that he would settle the scores with her later. Ian furrowed his brows and walked toward his father. “Where did you go today?” “Nowhere,” Ian answered indifferently. Sasha let out a long sigh of relief. Oh, thank God he didn’t say that we went to the amusement park. Otherwise, it would only make that man angrier. However, Sebastian didn’t believe Ian when he noticed all the sweat on the latter’s body.

Out of everyone’s expectations, Ian did not forget about Sasha before being led out of the office. Sasha, who was steeling herself to receive a tongue-lashing, instantly felt warmth spreading in her heart. “Little

before turning to Luke. “And what are you waiting for? Take him upstairs now!” Already fuming, his anger seemed to skyrocket just then. Ungrateful little brat. Did he forget who raised him all these years? After Ian was taken away, silence blanketed the office, and Sasha knew that it was time to face the music. I don’t get it. Why is he so angry? All I did was take him out to play for a bit. Sasha decided to break the silence. “Okay, I apologize for what I did. I understand that it was quite inappropriate for me to

like going to preschool? The weather’s quite good today, so I wanted to bring him for a walk in the garden. But the moment I suggested it, he became very agitated. Then, when I brought up playing with
