Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover Chapter 1293
“No, you were right. I shouldn’t have had those intentions. Had I bulldozed through their relationship, Devin would probably cut off ties with me. I should thank you instead.”
Wow, I didn’t expect him to be so understanding.
Sebastian was relieved that Edmund was the bigger person.
When the cuffs were unlocked, the two assisted each other and escaped the basement.
Lo and behold, another loud explosion sounded as soon as they stepped foot outside. As a consequence, the ground underneath shook terribly.
“Hurry up! There are plenty of nuclear bombs buried beneath us. Someone must have triggered it and caused a bombing on the other side. We’ve got to seize this golden opportunity and leave this place at once,” Edmund uttered in a pressing manner.
Sebastian nodded as Edmund helped him scurry to safety.
Bang! A series of deafening explosions sounded again behind them, rushing them to run for their lives.
Sebastian could no longer hear any of those jarring sounds.
He could only feel his rapid heartbeat, heavy breathing, and the bloodstains in his mouth.
“Sebastian! Sebastian!” He roughly heard someone calling his name at his ears.
As the flames caught up with him from behind, he could not hear anything. Instinctively, he ran as fast as he could without stopping…
He was resolute to stay alive for he knew that he had a family to return to. He was looking forward to seeing three adorable faces and one silly woman.
Boom! The entire basement was filled with billowing smoke.
Sebastian was blasted quite a distance away before falling onto the ground. He was already unconscious when Edmund crawled over to check on him.
At that moment, a young man wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses darted toward them. When he saw the casualties, he yelled, “Quick, send him to the hospital. Hurry up!”
That was the end of an eventful night. The sun would rise again in two hours’ time, and a brand new day began…
Two days later at Oceanic Estate, Sabrina decided to bring the four kids back to Avenport.
This was because Sasha did not return ever since she left for Avenport.
In fact, she was showing signs of not returning anymore. She had arranged for Royal Court One at Frontier Bay to be cleaned even though Sebastian was still unconscious in the hospital. She probably would have him settle down there once he woke up.
The triplets were overjoyed when they learned that they could finally go home. However, Jonathan was feeling sentimental, knowing that he would miss the children. Then again, he knew that there was no reason he could make them stay any longer.
“Remember to keep in touch frequently with Great-grandpa, okay?”
“We will, Great-grandpa,” the triplets promised in a crisp voice.
Devin set off the journey with Sabrina.
“Hubby, are you sure you can drive me there? You’re super busy, aren’t you? With the fall of Eddie, many agendas await your attention. Are you sure it’s okay for you to be away?” Sabrina could help but ask on the way back to Avenport.
It’s indeed a chaotic time. The White House is in a mess. Silas has no influence on the situation, whatsoever. Will it worsen the political unrest if Devin is away?
Devin smiled and replied placidly, “Just leave it to Grandpa. I’m not good at this.”
He casually indicated that he would not get involved in the matter. Afterward, he carried his kid on one arm, baggage on the other, and made his way out of the house.
Similar to Sebastian, Devin disliked politics.
The only reason he put on the uniform was because it was his dream and wish. His ambition was to contribute his earnest passion to build the country. He wanted nothing to do with political power.
With that, the whole family went back to Avenport, along with the triplets.
Meanwhile, in Avenport, Sasha had been constantly traveling between the hospital and Frontier Bay.
She was over the moon when she was informed that Sebastian had been discharged.
“Solomon, the doctor allows him to go home. So, I’m planning to take him back today. I’m certain that he will be thrilled to see that he’s home when he wakes up.”
Upon receiving the notice, the delighted Sasha updated the man in the hallway, who had just arrived at the hospital.
Solomon stopped in his tracks. “So soon? Isn’t he still in a coma?”
“It’s fine. The doctor says that it was due to extreme fatigue. He’s in deep sleep now. Thus, he can recuperate at home. The other minor injuries, scratches, and abrasions will heal with time.”
“What about you? What’s your plan?” A sudden question caught her by surprise.
Sasha was stunned. She was too happy that she had forgotten her own condition.
“I’ve contacted Haruto on your behalf. When you’re available, I’ll get him to examine your condition. I can understand that his wellbeing is important, but you can’t neglect your own health too. Otherwise, how can you spend the rest of your life with him?”
The man gazed at her quietly after putting his points across in the hallway.
