The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian) novel Chapter 601

After failing to inform Shin, he returned to Avenport and discovered that Frieda and her son had gone missing. Frederick told him that he did not manage to save them.

When Rufus heard that, he was so furious that he scolded Frederick harshly.

As he had no other choice, he could only accept this unfortunate outcome and return home with his newly-wed wife, Heather.

No one would have expected that Frederick actually deceived him. Actually, he had already saved Frieda and her son. In order to protect them, he even raised the child as his own.

As for Frieda, he kept her in the basement secretly for more than twenty years.

Tears welled up in Rufus’ eyes.

To avoid scaring her, he deliberately stayed far away and squatted down in front of her carefully.

“Frieda, I know that you’ve recognized me. I’m sorry that I didn’t protect you and your son back then. If I had informed Shin in time, this wouldn’t have happened to you.”

Shin?

This name caused Frieda, who had been living in a constant nightmare, to slowly regain her rationality.

“Shin… He’ll be here to pick us up…” She finally released her hands and revealed her eyes. Fear still lingered in them as she stared at Rufus with hope in her eyes.

Rufus felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw her gaze.

As expected, she had been triggered by him.

That night, according to the plan he had devised with Frederick, he hid the then-pregnant Frieda at a safe place first so the Jadesons would not find her.

He only went to look for Shin afterward.

However, looking at how she was now, he really did not dare to imagine what she had gone through that night.

She even became crazy overnight!

“Yeah, he’ll pick you up. I went to look for him and he instructed me to tell you that he’ll definitely pick you up.” After saying that, Rufus took out something.

It was a military medal that was not given by the national army, but by an international organization.

The medal was bronze, with two laurels surrounding the globe in the middle. Carved on the top were the words, For World Peace.

It was a medal of peace that was owned by Shin!

When Frieda saw it, she trembled. Pouncing over, she snatched the medal away, clutched it to her chest and burst into tears.

“This is his medal…. He’s not a bad guy… Not a bad guy…”

Her miserable wails echoed in the room. No matter who heard it, they would definitely be moved and cry along with her.

This time, more tears streamed down her cheeks.

However, Rufus knew that her tears now were tears of joy, because she had finally broken free from the invisible shackles.

“I’m not crying… I… I have given him Sebby. Our Sebby has already grown up! He’ll be overjoyed…”

Still sobbing, she suddenly spoke and mentioned Sebastian.

Rufus smiled. “Yes. You’re so capable that you have bored such an exceptional son for Shin. He’ll be so happy that he’d be laughing in his sleep.”

“Yeah!”

She nodded firmly before breaking into a smile.

Sabrina was still waiting for them downstairs. Why is Rufus talking to a madwoman? He must be out of his mind too!

Is there something wrong with him as well, just like Frieda?

Frowning, she glanced upward.

Surprisingly, after she waited in the courtyard for a while, she saw Rufus walking out of the room with Frieda following him.
