The Love that Never Really Dies

Unexpectedly, a few minutes later, Sebastian texted: I’ll be back tomorrow.

Sasha replied: Really? What time? Are you going back to Oceanic Estate straight away?

Sebastian was rendered speechless.

Such continuous questioning had overstepped the boundaries of her job scope as a family physician. Her employer had all the right to ignore her questions, or even fire her.

Standing right where she was, Sasha had her eyes glued to the phone screen. Finally, the man replied: Before twelve o’clock.

Before twelve o’clock? That’s great. I’m contented as long as he tells me an exact time.

Relief washed over Sasha. Then, she made her way down the stairs.

As soon as she came downstairs, a little girl in a pink dress scampered in from the garden to look for her.

“Mommy, mommy, Ian, and Matt are following Ms. Woods to have dessert outside.”

“What?”

Sasha was stunned for a second.

Dessert? What dessert? Kira knows how to make all kinds of dessert, doesn’t she? Why does she want to take the boys out to eat dessert then?

Holding her daughter’s hand, the woman strode out the door.

She was extremely vigilant about the kids’ safety now. Though their father had brought them here, where many safety precautions were implemented, she still could not let her guard down.
