Sasha couldnât handle the shock and blacked out.
This isnât real. No way this is real.
What is he going to do if this is real?
There was no one else to help him out this time around and she couldnât bear to see him ruined.
Meanwhile, back home at Hayes Residence.
Sebastian and Saul found the memorial hallâs secret passageway though the two footsteps left behind
outside the partially opened door at the memorial hall.
They discovered an underground dwelling after making their way into the secret passageway.
âMy gosh, Uncle Frederick never told me about this. I never knew thereâs an underground dwelling
here. When did they build this? Why havenât we heard of it?â
Saul was stunned when he saw the majestic basement.
No, I shouldnât even call this a basement.
It was even more majestic than Hayes Residence itself.
The room was lavishly decorated with an elegant chandelier hanging on the ceiling, an expensive sofa,
an imported Erihalian style cherry wood dining table, and a thick luxurious carpet that covered every
inch of the floor. Saul noticed the paintings hanging on the wall were actually priceless masterpieces
from all around the world.
My gosh, why did that old man build such a luxurious mansion underground?
Is he crazy?
Saul couldnât believe his eyes.
Sebastian wasnât any better.
However, he began to take in his surroundings right after his initial shock. His eyes gleamed
intelligently as he observed the room.
âWho is it?â He asked as he caught sight of movement out of the corner of his eye.
His voice echoed across the room.
Someone hiding behind the curtain panicked as she quickly fled the scene.
However, Sebastian wasnât about to let her off. He rushed up to her and grabbed hold of her long and
dirty clothes.
Thump
She collapsed and made a high-pitched shriek.
Sebastian went quiet.
Stunned, he almost let go of her thinking she was a monster.
Fortunately for him, Saul came over. He stared at the body on the ground and screamed, âIs this thing
human?â
A human?
Sebastian tightened his grip on the woman upon hearing that.
She felt soft and warm even though she was dirty.
âEeekkâ¦â
The woman started to scream and struggle once again as if she was a trapped mouse. She even tried
desperately to bite Sebastianâs hand.
Sebastian couldnât take it anymore and pinched her arm.
âAhhhhâ¦â She finally stopped.
Sebastian finally let go of her and turned her around.
A woman?
Saul was dumbfounded. âUncle Frederick has been keeping a woman here? Who the hell is she? I
hope sheâs not Uncle Frederickâs lover.â
âShut up!â
Sebastian growled. He then started to examine the woman.
However, the woman was so dirty that he could only make out her eyes and her lips.
She looked like a ghost.
A ghost?
Sebastian suddenly recalled the crazy thing Sabrina couldnât stop talking about.
âWho are you? Why are you here?â Sebastian asked patiently.
To his surprise, the woman, who had been cowering in a corner ever since she was caught, suddenly
snapped her head up upon hearing his voice.
âEeekkâ¦â
Her eyes lit up.
For a moment, Sebastian was dazzled by the light in her eyes.
What a beautiful pair of eyes.
Why does her face seem so familiar?
âEeekkâ¦â
âWhat is she trying to say? Has she forgotten how to talk after being locked up for such a long time?â
Saul said pitifully.
Sebastian was also getting annoyed.
However, much to their surprise, the woman suddenly uttered a cry when Sebastian didnât respond.
âBabyâ¦â
Baby?
Did she just call me baby?
Sebastianâs face darkened.
The woman then stretched her arms out for a hug after recognizing him. âHug⦠Mommy⦠Hugâ¦â
She crawled towards Sebastian with much difficulty for a hug.
Just as Sebastian was about to kick her away, the door suddenly burst open behind him.
