Chapter 17
The Love that Never Really Dies
Sasha ignored Xandra and shifted her gaze to her son. âLittle lan, come to me. Quickly, let me look
at your hands.â âAh, are you still trying to find evidence from the child? Let me tell you, this kid is
usually very naughty. It's normal for him to bump and knock into things. If you're thinking of using
that to accuse me, you're wasting your time,â Xandra said sarcastically.
Sasha shouted angrily, âShut up, Xandra! You know very well what you did. I will never let you hurt
him again now that I'm back. So it's best that you take my words seriously!â There was something
utterly terrifying and murderous in her eyes that made Xandra shudder in fear. Feeling intimidated
and furious, the latter ordered the bodyguards, âSeal the cabin and the window; don't leave a single
crack. Keep her in there! If she goes missing, there'll be hell to pay when Mr. Hayes finds out!â
Regardless of the commotion, Sasha tried to reach for her son. âlan, quickly come over and let me
have a look. Little lan..."
He remained on the spot. At that moment, lan was a quite baffled and wasnât sure why Sasha was so
agitated. Did Ms. Xandra do something wrong? She has always been like that. So what is the
problem? This boy who often isolated himself in the house because he didn't like to talk or socialize
with others. He actually thought Xandraâs behavior was normal. âLittle Ian, please come. Let me have
a look..." Sasha was on her knees, begging in tears.
She desperately pushed away the bodyguards who were blocking her view at the window, hoping to
see how her son was doing. She had carried him in her belly for ten months after all. He never knew
a mother's love because she had abandoned him at birth. How could she still leave him to be
abused by such a vicious woman? While bawling her eyes out, Sasha uttered hoarsely, âLittle lan,
come over... I... I am begging you. Come quickly and let me look at your hand.â
He wasn't sure what was going on. lan, who was only five years old, really wanted to walk over to
the window when he saw Sasha sobbing uncontrollably. The intensity of her care and love was
something he had never felt before. He finally lifted his foot. Right at that very moment, Xandra was
on the move. She bent down and swept him off the ground. âSeal up the cabin tightly. If I see her
again, don't even think about staying working for the Hayes anymore!â she commanded fiercely
before turning around and left with lan in her arms. Sasha almost passed out from rage in the
cabin. Sebastian, how could you be so blind to marry such a vicious woman? Is it possible that your
son doesn't matter much to you anymore?
He is you! Right after the window was completely sealed, Sasha fell to the ground, still sobbing. By
the time Sebastian received the news, she had not eaten or drunk anything for the entire day.
Furthermore, she was demanding to see him. âSee me? Why? Is it because of that incident this
afternoon where she thought Xandra had abused lan?â he asked nonchalantly. Finally able to regain
some energy, that man sat on the sofa with his legs crossed. Luke was dumbfounded. While
carrying lan along with her, Xandra had indeed taken the initiative to come and talk to Sebastian
about it.
She also admitted to being a little rough when she was asking lan to stop playing on the deck. Luke
decided to let the matter rest. However, to their surprise, someone else came in and reported to
them two hours later, âSomething bad happened, Mr. Hayes. That woman... She slit her wrist in the
cabin.â âWhat did you say?â The expressionless man who was sitting in front of his computer with
his head buried in work finally got distracted.
Slit her wrist? How crazy of her to do such a thing!. What was she thinking? Sebastian stomped out
furiously. A few minutes later, when he finally arrived at the locked cabin, he thought another
massive warring argument would take place again. However, after he opened the door and saw the
woman's lifeless body lying in the wreckage, he was shocked beyond words. âSasha, why are you
acting crazy again?â Sebastian muttered to himself. The moment he glanced at the pile of blood
next to her hand, he rushed over to her side and knelt down while applying pressure to her wrist.
