What’s that I hear? Go with him to the Jadeson residence?
Shaken by his words, Sasha stared at him for a long time, wondering if she had heard it wrong.
When Sebastian saw the reaction on her face, he added with an icy tone, “Haha, don’t worry. No one is forcing you. If Grayson hadn’t begged me, I wouldn’t have agreed to it.”
His expression was so cold and every word pierced her heart.
“No, it’s not that. I’ll go. In fact, I’m more than willing to come along!” Regaining her senses, she got up from the floor and threw her arms around his wheelchair.
“Mr. Hayes, I am dying to go,” Sasha repeated while looking at him all teary-eyed.
Jolted by the look on her face, the anger he felt earlier subsided that instant.
At that moment, Grayson appeared and smiled at what he saw. “I’m glad to see both of you here. What a pleasant coincidence. Macy, I want to assign you to be Mr. Hayes’ nurse at the Jadeson residence. Are you fine with the arrangement?”
Sasha nodded vehemently in response. “I am more than happy to do so. Dr. Wallen, I rushed down just now because he was leaving. I-”
“Is that why you’re crying?”
Grayson couldn’t help but state the obvious.
Blushing instantly, Sasha lowered her head with tears between her eyelashes.
At the same time, Sebastian froze in his wheelchair before looking away awkwardly.
Nevertheless, he couldn’t deny that his mood was a lot better than before.
With that, Sasha was assigned to join Sebastian at the Jadeson residence without her prior knowledge.
Before she left, Grayson pulled Sasha aside and reminded her, “Ms. Wand, you have to seize this opportunity. I had a big fight with Old Mr. Jadeson just so that I can slip you in.”
Sasha was almost moved to tears.
“I definitely will, Dr. Wallen. I knew you were behind this, and I cannot thank you enough.”
“Don’t mention it.” Grayson waved his hand.
“To be honest, I feel sorry for him. I know what an extraordinary man he used to be. Therefore, I refuse to see him fall into such dire circumstances. Ms. Wand, you have to help him regain his memories, do you understand?”
Grayson, with his white sideburns, finally spoke his mind to Sasha.
Sasha’s heart briefly sank at his words.
I will definitely succeed. After all, isn’t that the whole purpose of me being here?
With that, Sasha followed Sebastian into the Jadesons’ vehicle.
She was now embarking on a new journey. Faced with an unknown future, she wasn’t sure of the dangers awaiting her. However, she would stay by his side to protect him no matter what.
“What did he say to you?”
“Huh?”
Sasha, who was staring out of the window, turned toward Sebastian.
They were riding in an MPV which had two rows of seats at the back. When Sasha saw that he sat on the right, she knowingly sat in a different row so as to not anger him.
“Nothing really. He just reminded me about things that I should take note of. By the way, Mr. Hayes, why did you agree to Dr. Wallen’s arrangement? I assumed that you… would have refused,” Sasha asked, unable to contain her curiosity.
She was awed by how the sunlight accentuated his exquisite features as he looked out the window.
To her, it felt like a beautiful painting. In fact, she was delighted by the idea that the painting belonged to her.
Staring at him, she just couldn’t peel her eyes away.
Sebastian didn’t look her way, but it didn’t mean that he was oblivious to her gawking at him. The next moment, a frown set upon his face.
“Do you think that I was the one who agreed to it?”
“Huh?”
Sasha’s eyes widened in surprise.
He didn’t? Then, why am I allowed to go home with him? No matter how influential Grayson can be, he still doesn’t have the authority to force the matter. Could it be Jonathan?
When Jonathan’s name crossed her mind, disappointment filled Sasha’s sparkling eyes.
“Fine…” Pouting her lips, she recovered her gaze and looked out the window looking frustrated.
Sebastian was speechless.
What a foolish girl!
Frowning, Sebastian leaned back into the seat and closed his eyes.
Meanwhile, at Jade Court…
An incendiary atmosphere descended upon the entire household when news of Sebastian arriving to recuperate was heard.
“Look, he has been discharged after we failed to kill him. By letting him return, aren’t we letting the fox into the hen house?”
The one who spoke was Jocelyn, Charles’ wife.
