The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian) novel Chapter 1073

Sasha who knew her daughter very well, started connecting the dots. “What’s wrong? Why did she suddenly ask you to bathe her?” she asked anxiously.

“Um… The parent-teacher conference didn’t go well,” that man spat out those words stiffly through gritted teeth. He seemed to be a little frustrated in the video call.

Sasha fell silent as many possibilities of what might have happened ran through her mind.

Then, she turned away to suppress her laughter.

Forget it, let’s drop the topic. Otherwise, I’ll land myself in hot soup too.

Sasha switched to an earlier subject, “Connor’s wife opened a hotel in Dragon Valley.”

“Dragon Valley?” He was surprised.

Sasha nodded. “Yup. I’ve been there. It’s not a bad location, quite near to the State Guesthouse.”

“When did she get into the White House social circle?”

Wow, one can’t be more direct than that!

Annoyance laced his icy tone. Sasha could sense the hostility portrayed in his expression over the phone.

She shrugged her shoulders. “I’m not sure. Do you want to investigate further?”

“No need!” Sebastian rejected the idea immediately.

He picked up the phone and sat down in front of the camera without buttoning up his shirt. “You don’t have to do anything. Just come back tomorrow, and I’ll handle this matter.”

The last line sounded like a command.

Nothing is more important than her safety.

Sasha hung up the call.

That night, a platoon appeared unannounced at Shirley’s newly opened hotel. Within half an hour, more than ten pounds of drugs were seized.

The fierce knocking on the door woke Shirley up.

Fearfully, she went to answer the door. As soon as she opened it, a group of people rushed in at once and landed a kick on her chest.

“Restrain her and bring her to Old Mr. Jadeson!”

It was Mark. His bloodshot eyes were staring at Shirley with a malicious intent.

Upon being kicked, Shirley was shocked to her wits and fainted right away.
