Chapter 109
The Love that Never Really Dies
Excellent! As soon as each child reported their respective task, Matteo looked around, satisfied.
"Good! The next order of business is to greet Mommy. Remember, guys, we must make her feel like
Daddy wants her here, got it?" âYes, Matteo,â Vivian said, and lan nodded briskly. An unforeseen
complication occurred to lan. He turned to Matteo and frowned. âWhat about Daddy? What
happens when he finds out?â Matteo waved his hand impatiently. âDonât worry about that. I've
taken care of it. He won't find out.â His siblings sighed in relief. Half an hour later, the black Cayenne
finally emerged. The children excitedly ran out. "Mommy! Mommy, come here!â The first to reach
was Vivian as she loved her mother the most.
As Sasha exited the vehicle, she pulled her child in for a big hug. As she watched Vivian clinging to
her leg, she didn't realize how much she missed them. âWell, Mommy is here. Are you happy,
sweetie?â âYes, very much, Mommy,â Vivian answered. âI've cleaned your bedroom for you, so you'll
be living right next to me. It's beautiful.â She informed her solemnly whilst watching her expression
intently as if she was expecting a word of praise from Sasha. Sasha was stunned upon hearing
that. Even a bedroom was prepared? Did Sebastian really agree to let me live here? Or was it because I
was still recovering and that he felt sorry for me? As she pondered her situation, the terror she
regarded him with seemed to vanish slightly. She was even feeling optimistic without realizing it.
Matteo greeted his mother next, beaming from ear to ear. Instead of tackling her like his sister did,
he lent a hand with her bags. âlan,â Matteo called. âCome here and give me a hand with these.â
The usually reserved lan even sprinted over and helped. Sasha watched them, and her heart was
instantly filled with gratitude and joy. That wasn't even the best part. As soon as she stepped over
the threshold, Wendy, the housemaid greeted her warmly. âMs. Wand, you're here! Are you feeling
any better? You poor thing. I have some broth in the kitchen for you. Once you've settled in, I'll
bring you some.â Sasha felt close to tears. It had been a long time since she was being cared for that
way. As a single mother for five years, she was always the one giving out love and care and receiving
little in return. But now, someone was even cooking for her. Sasha scrunched her nose, trying not to
cry. âSounds good, Wendy. Thank you.â She hurried upstairs with her luggage before she broke
down. Up on the second floor, lan used to be the sole occupant. But now, along the corridor,
Matteo, Vivian, and Sasha joined him. It was a good thing that Sebastian's villa was huge. âMommy,
do you like this room?â Matteo asked as they entered it. âUm...â Sasha avoided his gaze and busied
herself with putting away her clothes and medicine.
Matteo smiled to himself. He ran through the bathroom into lanâs bedroom and huddled up with
his siblings to conduct another meeting. âDid you see that? Mommy thinks that this was Daddy's
idea. You guys did a great job. lan, that move with Wendy was genius.â Matteo gave his brother a
thumbs up. lan wasn't used to being directly addressed and praised like this. He looked down shyly
but was secretly overjoyed
At the same time, Vivian's eyes shone with excitement. âWhat's the next step, Matteo? Daddy will be
home any minute.â However, Matteo still did not know what to do. Sasha was oblivious about the
fact that she was being discussed in hushed whispers in the neighboring room. She worked slowly
as her arm was still throbbed with pain. As Sasha was taking a long time, Wendy came up to her
room and knocked. âMs. Wand, do you still have a lot to go? Here, let me help. The broth is getting
cold, so go and have some while it's still warm.â âOh! That's alright, Wendy. I'm almost done here,â
Sasha was not used to being pampered. It made her feel slightly uneasy. Thus, she quickly finished
up and followed Wendy downstairs. Wendy's kind demeanor was in direct contrast to Mrs. Lowe, the
old maid. The latter was ill-mannered and insubordinate. The moment Sasha laid her eyes on Mrs.
Lowe, she had a bad feeling about her.
