Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover Chapter 1285

Splash!

Sebastian was jolted awake when a bucket of cold water was poured down on him. He opened his eyes only to find

himself in an unfamiliar environment and saw an old man grinning hideously at him.

“Oh, Mr. Jadeson, I see that you’re finally up.”

Seeing that Sebastian had opened his eyes, Eddie returned to his seat and lit a cigarette. Then, he gazed at his

captive through the billowing clouds of cigarette smoke.

Sebastian struggled to move but to no avail. He was handcuffed to the bed.

“Eddie, what are you trying to do? Did you instruct your man to hit my car just so you could abduct me?”

“Precisely that,” Eddie admitted openly.

“It turns out that your sickness hasn’t affected the function of your brain. Hmm… Not bad. This goes to show that I

made the right decision.” An ugly smug settled upon his face.

Sebastian attempted to break free again. This time, he felt an agonizing pain at a few spots on his body, especially

his head.

The pain was so excruciating that he was drenched in a cold sweat.

“Don’t move as your injuries are quite bad. Anyway, you can rest assured that I haven’t done anything to you.

These wounds were from the car accident.”

After a while, Sebastian stopped struggling and settled down on the bed.

He asked, “Where is this place? What game do you plan to play for bringing me here?”

“How clever!” Eddie stood up while praising him generously.

“I do have something grand planned just for you, but I should answer your first question. You wanted to know where

you are, right? Sure, let me tell you. This is actually the Sheerwood residence.”

“Sheerwood residence?” Sebastian was in disbelief.

“How is that possible? Sheerwood residence has been bombed by you to ashes when Isaac died. How could this be?

Did you build something underground?”

“Yes, that’s right. Your logic is brilliant!” Eddied was delighted to hear his speculation.

He walked toward the coffee table and turned on the television mounted on the wall.

“See? The surveillance camera is showing you the aerial view of Adonia, including the residential area where the

Sheerwood residence is located. Sebastian, you’re indeed a smart alec. However, you always make the same

mistake. You tend to overthink things and complicate each matter. Many a time, it’s best to think simple. It’s easier

to fool others this way, do you understand me?” Eddie gave him a brief lecture while pointing at the screen.

It was true that Eddie had the upper hand in this matter.

No one, including Sebastian, had ever expected this move ever since the Sheerwood residence was demolished.

Little did they know that the bombing of Isaac was merely a disguise. The more gory his death was, the least

suspicion people would have about it.

Fury clouded Sebastian’s pale face. His whole being was emanating frustration at the thought of being fooled by

Eddie.

Seeing his reaction, Eddie guffawed and consoled him, “You don’t need to feel so devastated. Let me tell you

something, neither Judith nor your father was my match. The fact that you could withstand several blows from me

is already by itself an achievement.”

Sebastian panted heavily for a while before asking, “What are you scheming? Are you trying to take me down once

and for all?”

“Hahaha…” the old man cackled.

“That’s right, I want to fight you to death. Then again, Sebastian, you’re already in my hands. Therefore, you should

find a replacement. Bring forth your cousin, Devin, your grandfather, Jonathan, and the entire White House!”

uttered Eddie.

Sebastian stared daggers at him with a pair of bloodshot eyes. “What are you going to do? You may have captured

me, but the whole of Jadeborough has been weeded out stealthily. It’s not an easy task for you to seize power.”

“Oh, is that so?” Eddie smiled.

“Have you forgotten that Jadeborough has been my dear nest for years, Sebastian? Do you really think that you

could remove all of my men completely?”

Sebastian was rendered speechless.

“Let me tell you, right when you were caught, almost one third of Jadeborough has been populated by my people.

They were at the malls, train stations, bus stations…”

Before he could finish his sentence, the man who was handcuffed to the bed shouted furiously, “Bast*rd!”

Malls? Train and bus stations too? Is he even human? How could he harbor such an evil thought to sacrifice the lives

of innocent civilians for his own selfish desire? He’s using them as his stepping stones to climb up the social

hierarchy and solidify his power!

Sebastian had never been this infuriated.
