Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Naturally, Ian was aware of that.

That was why he never said anything. Instead, he stood there like a cool pop star and waited patiently.

When his mom finished dressing his baby brother, he walked over.

“What’s wrong, Little Ian? Why are you so quiet? Did your Aunt Sabrina mess with you today?”

“You think she is capable of doing so?” scoffed Ian as he lay in his mom’s arms.

Sasha understood what he was saying right away.

That makes sense. Ian grew up with the Hayes. Sabrina would not have developed a habit of running

away from other kids if she manages to mess with him.

Sasha didn’t take the kids home after they had finished putting their clothes on. Instead, they waited for

Sebastian to clock off.

It’s almost time to go home, anyway.

“Mommy, are you going to go help Daddy?”

“Huh?”

Sasha was mopping the floor at the time. She turned around and stared at her eldest son in

bewilderment.

“With his work, I mean. Daddy has been so busy lately, Mommy, and he didn’t even have time to eat.

You can go to his office and help him out. That way, we’d be able to head home earlier.”

Ian was slightly more mature and was assigning tasks to his own mother.

What no one knew was that he actually had an ulterior motive and a tiny secret. He caught his father’s

strange expression earlier. No one else saw it, but Sebastian was holding the kid at the time, and Ian

was observant, so he noticed it.

Daddy is a germaphobe just like me, so he must’ve detected the smell on Mommy.

That was why he did all that. He refused to let any more misunderstandings arise between his parents.

As suspected, Sasha was tempted, and she was tempted.

“But… I know nothing about his job. How can I help him?”

“Dummy Mommy, you are his wife. He will be happy if you’re by his side. You just need to do stuff like

get him tea or put his documents away.”

Matteo chimed in as well. He stared at his mommy like he was annoyed about how slow she was.

Sasha was speechless.

Uhm, is that advice legit?

She was a little shy, but she couldn’t deny that she was tempted to try it out.

I don’t think I’ve ever tried doing any of that in front of him.

With that, Sasha decided to follow her sons’ advice.

Ian caught that, so he quickly got a new outfit from the closet and asked his mom to change into it. His

excuse, naturally, was that she dirtied her clothes when she helped them get dressed.

Sasha’s face blushed red. She never suspected anything when she left for Sebastian’s office.

All three tiny rascals stared until their mommy left. Then, all three of them sighed a breath of relief

together.

“Ian, why did you ask Mommy to go help Daddy? She really knows nothing.”

“Didn’t you notice that Mommy has a strange scent on her?”

“Huh?”

Matteo’s bulged his beautiful eyes and stared at his big brother in astonishment.

Vivian inched over as well. She tilted her round head and waited for her big brother to further explain.

Unfortunately, Ian stopped talking entirely after that.

He was only six, after all, and a six-year-old couldn’t understand complicated relationship issues.

All he could do was create opportunities to strengthen his parents’ relationship whenever he sensed

that something was off.

……

“Hello, Mrs. Hayes.”

“Mrs. Hayes, what brought you here?”

“Mrs. Hayes…”

When Sasha walked over, everyone in the office stood up and greeted her warmly upon seeing her.

Sasha wasn’t used to that treatment, so she simply greeted, “Hi.”

She rushed into Sebastian’s office immediately after.

She wasn’t like Xandra nor Roxanne, and she didn’t like making an entrance. If she could, she would

make herself invisible, so she could freely go to her man without a care in the world.

What she didn’t know was that jealousy burned bright after she slipped into the office.

“Who would’ve thought that she would be the one to come out on top?”

“Right? We made fun of her when she came to work here. We called her a shameless ex who went to

her ex-husband’s workplace to get him to take her back.”

“Who would’ve thought that she ended up being so powerful? She was already abandoned. Yet, she

somehow made it back to the top.”

Everyone was discussing the matter and was burning with jealousy as they dissed.

However, as they spoke, a voice popped out and redirected their attention.

“Are you id*ots? What kind of a place do you think this is? It’s Hayes Corporation! Do you think that,

given her skills, she’d be able to squeeze her way in here without some help?”

Silence.

It was a surprise to everyone.

A few seconds was all it took to get everyone to shut up.

That’s right. We have got to be id*ots for missing something so obvious. If our boss truly abandoned

her and didn’t want to see her, she would never be able to stay in Hayes Corporation. Hel*, she

couldn’t even stay in the city!

There was only one valid explanation. Sebastian had been in love with her the entire time and never

abandoned her.

F*ck!

When Sasha slipped into the office, she looked up and saw that the top managers of the company

were all in there. Everyone, including the man sitting behind the desk, was staring at her.

Sasha felt so awkward that she wanted to dig a hole and hide in there.

“Sorry, I, uh, I’m just here to get the kids’ toy. They’re a little bored,” lied Sasha as she smiled stiffly.

In her mind, however, she was imagining herself spanking the two little rascals who gave her such

terrible suggestions.

“You boys continue with your meeting. I’ll leave now so I don’t disturb you,” added Sasha. She decided

to flee as quickly as she could.
