Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Ian casually told Susan his plan. He respected her decision and allowed her to choose her new identity.

In actuality, Ian had begun planning this during his journey home yesterday.

One could not deny that he inherited Sebastian's intellect. From when Sebastian instructed Karl to begin an investigation

to Sebastian’s reaction after finding out about Kilian, Ian could accurately predict Sebastian's every move.

Ian carried out his plan well and deliberately arranged for Karl to find and capture Kilian.

Furthermore, he also provided Killian with what he should say.

The reason Ian did all this was to give Susan a brand new identity and allow her to free herself from the Jadeson family.

Then she would not have to worry about the matter anymore.

Ian waited for Susan's response with anticipation.

Unexpectedly, Susan called right after he messaged her.

"Hello? Are you saying you will give me a fake identity to leave the Jadeson family?" Susan said.

"Yes." Ian did not deny it. "You said you were worried about my daddy and the Jadeson family's reputation because of

your identity as a Limmer. Since I have resolved this, you don't have to worry anymore."

Susan's hope gradually shattered as she listened to Ian. Her eyes were filled with despair. "Ian, do you understand what I

truly worry about?"

"What is it?"

"I am worried about what the world would think, whether your parents would accept our relationship, and what

every member of the Jadeson family would think. Have you considered how much of a blow we would cause them if

we revealed our relationship one day?" Susan asked softly on the phone.

That was her true concern. She did not dare to imagine how people would react if they found out about her feelings

for Ian. She was Eddie's granddaughter and Ian's aunt. It was improper for her to have such desires.

Ian remained silent.

He took his phone and sat beside the coffee table. He was confused at first. But after he heard what Susan said, his

gaze turned dim and cold. "Are you asking me to tell my parents about this?"

That sent Susan into a panic. "N-No! That's not what I meant!"

Disappointment rose from Ian's heart, and he lost the determination in his gaze. Even his affection for her gradually

dissipated.

"Susan, you are much weaker than I thought. Since you are that scared, fine, I will do as you wish. From now on,

you are still my aunt, and I am still your nephew!" Ian snapped.

With that, he did not give Susan a chance to reply and hung up immediately.

Susan sat stunned like a statue.

It took a long time before she finally recovered her senses. She felt as if someone had dug out something from her

chest. She staggered and slumped to the floor.

Yes, he is smart and saw that I am afraid and cowardly. I am not as brave as him. So what if the world criticizes and

looks down on us? At the very least, Ian dares to fight for what he wants and take action. What about me? Other

than shrinking back and worrying, I did nothing!

Since then, Ian did not contact her anymore. A few days later, someone exposed the matter concerning Kilian. It

turned out a person had paid him and instructed him to fabricate lies about Susan's background.

In the end, she was still Eddie's granddaughter.

After receiving the news, Susan remained in Yeringham and did not speak for the whole day.

In August, when there was still half a month before the new semester, Ian completed the paperwork to drop out of

the University of Pollerton. He, Vivian, and Kurt would travel to Yartran together and attend classes in Atlantius.

Ironically, soon after they left, the truth about Susan's background finally came to light.

"Susan, I have good news for you. Both of you are not Eddie’s descendants. Your father is not Elizabeth's son. She

killed

her own son a long time ago." Susan's mother, Sigrith Halford, broke out in tears of joy on the phone.

Susan was dumbstruck after hearing the news.

It turned out she was not Eddie's granddaughter.

"Ian's father found out the truth. He said Elizabeth had given birth to a child many years ago. At that time, Eddie

promised her that he would make her the First Lady after he recovered his position. However, Eddie broke his promise

and married her to Alfred. Thus, her heart grew twisted with hatred. She killed her child, placed it in a clay pot, and

buried it before Eddie's tomb so that he could never find rest in the afterlife."

Sigrith frankly told Susan what had happened in Jadeborough recently.

However, there was something more shocking than this.

It turned out that after Elizabeth killed her baby, her family had feared Eddie would seek revenge, so they had rushed to

the countryside and adopted a child of a similar age.

The child he adopted was born to a woman from the Limmer family.

Juliet Limmer was the mother. One could find her name in the Limmer family's family record in Golden Heights. She was

Louis and Eddie's blood-related aunt. After getting married in Xenhall, she became Felicity and Janice's aunt.

From this, one could tell how evil Elizabeth was.

Sigrith wiped her tears and continued, "Ian's father also said that during the years of war, Juliet had helped to raise her

younger brother, Lucien's children. If you are okay with it, you can go for a paternity test and see whose blood is flowing

in you and your brother."

Susan's mind went blank. She had never expected such an unbelievable matter to happen to her.

She was still a Limmer.

However, within the span of a month, she suddenly became the descendant of a national hero from the descendant of

the most publicly hated man.

It sounds like something straight out of a drama. However, isn't all this a little too late...
