Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1779 Can You Promise Me Not To Date For Now

Yasmin looked up at Ian.

At that very moment, she had a vibrant smile on her face.

I guess no one is born looking glum. People have bad days, and sometimes they have a hard life. Who doesn’t want

to live every day happily?

In the end, Susan returned to her apartment. After preparing a table full of dishes, she waited patiently for Ian’s

return.

Ian arrived home around nine o’clock at night.

Although his injured leg was recovering well, Susan still went down and opened the door for him once she heard

him.

“Aunt Susan?”

Ian was surprised that Susan was still at his house at that hour.

Smiling, Susan greeted, “Hello, Ian. I’ve prepared dinner for you and have been waiting for you to come back. You

must be tired today. I heard from your friend that you tried out something new today. How was it?”

Susan thought of a smart way to ask Ian about his day and not make him awkward at the same time.

Ian’s ears turned slightly red as he replied, “Oh, I think it’s not bad.”

“What did you do?”

“I’ve learned how to make bubble tea, Aunt Susan. I can make a cup for you too if you want to drink.” Ian looked up

at Susan with his glinting eyes and smiled.

How filial!

Susan was delighted and glad that Ian thought of her after learning how to make bubble tea.

“Sure. You can make one for me when you have the time, but not tonight. You must be tired.” After a brief pause,

she continued, “But if you work at the bubble tea stall, how are you going to handle your project at the company?

Are you going to leave it?”

Susan got to the question eventually.

However, the moment she finished, she noticed the immediate change in Ian’s expression. His relaxed stature

disappeared instantly and was replaced by his usual cold expression.

“Of course not. We will sign the contract in a few days.”

“In a few days?” Susan asked anxiously as she recalled the conversation among the employees that she overheard

the day before.

“Why do you have to wait for a few days? Since you’ve already decided, isn’t it better to sign the contract right

away?” Susan continued.

“The seller wants to raise the price by twenty million. Let me wait for a few days and see if he will lower the price.”

As Ian didn’t see the point of hiding his reason from Susan, he told her everything truthfully.

Susan immediately understood what was going on.

Apparently, the employees in the company wanted the twenty million for themselves. Such insolence! How dare

they go behind Ian’s back when he’s the son of the president of Hayes Corporation!

Fuming with rage, Susan didn’t say anything more to Ian. After dinner, she took out her phone and made a call on

the way back. “Hello, I would like to have the contact number for Room 1106 in Golden Commerce Tower.”

“Okay, please wait for a moment…”

Ten seconds later, a phone number was sent to Susan’s phone.

Next, she dialed the number that she just received.

“Hello?”

“I would like to remind you that twenty million is a sum huge enough for you and your accomplice to be sentenced

to lifetime imprisonment. If that’s what you want, I won’t hesitate to report you to the police.”

Susan walked home with an umbrella over her head. With darkness looming over her, she looked like an apparition

who was roaming in the night. As she spoke calmly over the phone, her icy tone sounded terrifying to Yvonne.

Who is this?

The color drained from Yvonne’s face. Quickly glancing at her phone screen, she was alarmed to discover that the

call was from an unknown number.

An unknown number?

Susan managed to conceal her phone number while using a normal smartphone.

Even if Susan refused to acknowledge the fact that she was one of the Limmer family’s descendants, she had

inherited the Limmers’ intelligence.

Furthermore, it was obvious that she was smart from how she managed to discover Yasmin’s true identity all by

herself.

Susan brought breakfast to the apartment on a Monday morning. Tidying up Ian’s bedroom, she hesitated for a

moment before asking, “Ian, can you do me a favor?”

Ian, who was brushing his teeth in the bathroom, poked his head out and looked at Susan quietly as he continued to

brush his teeth.

Ian was at ease and relaxed before Susan as if she was family. To him, there was nothing to hide in front of her.

Susan began, “Well… I heard that you are dating a girl, is that so? We’re here to study, Ian. Can you promise me

not to date for now and focus on your studies first?”

“Ahem!”

Ian coughed with his mouth full of toothpaste.

Dating?

What is Aunt Susan thinking? I’m not dating anyone!

Ian’s cheeks flushed. After washing his face, he regained his composure responded to Susan.

“I’m not dating anyone, Aunt Susan,” Ian hurriedly denied.

“You’re not? Then what is it between you and Yasmin…”

“There’s nothing going on between us. It’s just… Things are really interesting with her. I get to do things that I’ve

never been exposed to. Why would you think I like her, Aunt Susan?”

After calming down, Ian told Susan what he really felt about his friendship with Yasmin. At the same time, he was

perplexed as to why Susan would get the wrong idea.

Susan didn’t know what to reply with.
