Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1305 Nothing Wrong About Love

Edmund stared at her blankly.

“What are you looking at? Have you gone dumb? Do you even realize what you’re doing? I guess you don’t because

I didn’t hit you, right?” Sabrina was fuming.

She had geared up to give the good-for-nothing Edmund a piece of her mind with the hope to wake him up from his

complacency. However, she realized that he was just staring at her.

What is he looking at? Is he waiting to see if I’ll beat him to death? The thought enraged Sabrina even more.

Fortunately, after giving him an earful, he snapped back to his senses, and a panicky expression flashed across his

eyes. Instantly, he withdrew his gaze and directed it elsewhere.

“I know what I’m doing. So, mind your own business.”

“Haha…” Sabrina let out a mocking laugh.

“Sure. Then tell me, what on earth are you doing? I heard that you gambled away all of your possessions, is that

right? Please enlighten me, Mr. Cooper. What’s your next step?”

He kept quiet as his eyes flickered for a bit. Subsequently, he walked away.

What is wrong with this guy?

Speechless, Sabrina could only trail along behind him.

At first, she wanted to give him some money and head home thereafter. Upon following him for what seemed like

an eternity, it was clear to her that the wastrel had no intention to stop.

“What’s gotten into you? Stop right there, Edmund! You have the guts to make silly mistakes but are unwilling to

have me rebuke you?”

Finally, he turned around.

“Yes. So what? Sabrina, don’t stick your nose into my business from now on!”

He glared at her and said those things that he was not proud of.

Sabrina went ballistic. What an a**hole!

Her short temper would not tolerate such a response. Immediately, she whipped out a credit card and tossed it at

Edmund’s subordinate before storming off.

Such an ungrateful jerk! I shouldn’t have come all the way here.

Sabrina decided to leave the country at once.

Shortly after she had left the police station, Sebastian called, “You’re here in Jetroina?”

I knew it! Him and his tingling spider senses.

Sabrina nodded casually. “Oh yeah, I’m here to see you guys.”

Sebastian queried further, “Your flight touched down around three in the afternoon. It’s six in the evening now.

Does it take you three hours to travel from the airport to downtown to see us?”

“Um…” His retort made Sabrina speechless.

Thus, she was forced to make her way to the hospital and pay her brother and sister-in-law a visit.

Meanwhile, Sasha was undergoing a cell rejuvenation treatment.

“Can’t she come out?”

When Sabrina saw that Sasha was kept in a special isolation room within the intensive care unit, she widened her

eyes in shock.

Sebastian approached her and shot her a cold look. “That’s why you’d better not get into any trouble. I don’t have

the time to clean up your mess for you.”

Sabrina was displeased at his words.

What is he talking about? Since when have I made him clean up any mess for me?

Though she felt irritated, she still came clean with Sebastian.

“Well, I’m actually here for Edmund. His subordinate called me up and asked for help. That bugger lost all the

Coopers’ fortune here in Jetroina.”

“What did you say?” Sebastian blurted in surprise. He could not believe what he had heard. “He lost all of his

fortune? How did he manage to do that?”

“I heard he gambled at a casino in Terrandya. When his pockets were emptied, he indulged excessively in liquor. He

was too embarrassed to contact you and Devin. When things got worse, his subordinate had no choice but to reach

out to me. I just bailed him out from the police station.” Sabrina updated him on the full story while massaging her

temples.

Indeed, this is one heck of a headache.

The Coopers’ wealth was not a small sum. Back then, Benedict turned to that old geezer for help and did a lot of

smuggling activities for him all because of Edmund.

As soon as Eddie died, the Jadesons took over as the key decision-maker and left the Coopers alone.

Their total net worth was conservatively estimated at a few hundred million. How did he gamble such a fortune

away within one night?

Sebastian was completely baffled.

“Hang on, something doesn’t add up. I’ll get Karl to investigate further. You should head home now. I’m warning

you, don’t do something like this in the future again. Were you planning to sweep this under the carpet? What

gives? Who gave you the courage to do so?”

Sabrina’s blood boiled with rage. Who’s the elder sister here?

Nevertheless, she left the hospital for the airport obediently. The truth was that she had no guts to defy his

instructions.

Half an hour later, Karl arrived at the casino and discovered a piece of puzzling information. He was told by the

staff at the casino that the man who gambled against Edmund was not a regular there but a random person

seeking fun.

Is that so?

Karl was not someone to be treated like a fool. As soon as he stepped out of the casino, he contacted SteelFort.

In no time at all, the security footage for the past two days at the casino was sent to his phone.

“This man is named Hiroya Kondo. He used to run a smuggling business but is now very quiet. No one knows if he

has washed his hands clean.”

The staff at Solomon’s Jetroinian bar came over, and he could recognize the man in the footage at one glance.

Additionally, he also illustrated Hiroya’s background.

Smuggling business?

Arching his brow, Karl posed another question, “What did he smuggle?”
