Chapter 79
The Love that Never Really Dies
A few hours later in the Frontier Bay. Sasha went to the washroom on the second floor to put a cold
towel on her bloated face. Hiss... âDoes it hurt?â lan had been standing by the washroomâs door the
entire time. When he heard his mommy hissing, he immediately tilted his tiny head up and stared at
his mommy with worry glowing in his eyes. Mommy got hurt because of me. Will Matteo get mad
when he finds out? The kid's tiny hand gripped the broken toy that he had snatched back. He looked
devastated, with guilt and remorse weighing down in his heart. âIt's fine, Little lan. See?
It doesn't hurt at all. I was just hissing because of the cold. I accidentally froze myself with the ice
water.â Sasha sensed that the little guy's emotion was off, so she quickly crouched down beside him
and cooed him. lan tilted his head up and saw how his mommy's face was reddened and bloated.
He didn't know what to say, so after hesitating for a while, he approached her. The kid had never
done anything immature before, but he actually bulged his tiny lips and blew on his mommy's
cheek. Sasha was momentarily stupefied. What is my son doing? Is he blowing on my face to âblow
away the painâ? Like his baby sister does? Vivi was practically a professional in playing a childish cutie
pie. Whenever she saw her mommy getting injured anywhere, she would rush over to blow on the
cut and claimed that it would be fine soon. Sasha was touched by her son's gesture.
She reached out and held him in her arms. âLittle lan is such a good boy. I'm fine now. It's true. It
doesn't feel bad at all. I will be fine as long as you are okay,â promised Sasha as she suppressed the
tears in her eyes and smiled. lan suddenly felt a little awkward. However, he never struggled or
broke free. He simply let his mommy hug him until he heard his daddy's voice. Daddy is home. âMr.
Hayes, welcome home.â âWhere is lan?" asked Sebastian instantly. The man was obviously still
worried whether his son was traumatized. âHe's on the second floor. Ms. Wand is with him.
Oh, and Mr. Hayes? I don't know what happened, but Ms. Wand's face is bloated. It looks as if
someone has beaten her,â informed Wendy in a worried tone. Ah, so Sasha never told Wendy what
happened? Sebastian scoffed and replied, âShe deserves it.â Wendy was speechless. She wanted to
say something, but her young boss had already walked up the stairs by then. As suspected,
Sebastian heard the mother and son duo conversing in the nursery before he even saw them. Sasha
asked, âLittle lan, is there any make-up for women in the house? Can you get some for me? I need it
to hide my injury so that no one will see it when I leave.â lan tilted his head up to stare at his
mommy. Mommy is probably worried about Matteo and my baby sister seeing her bloated face. The
tiny thing that had been playing Lego looked up. His warm brown eyes shone with a little guilt
when he answered, âThere's none.â âHuh? Are you sure there isn't any make-up in the house? How
can that be? Err... Hasn't Ms. Xandra been staying here the entire time?
It's unlikely that she doesn't have any make-up around here. Little lan, you can get some for me. I
promise I won't use too much of it,â said Sasha. She didnt actually want to utter those words
because the mere thought of using that vile woman's make-up disgusted Sasha. Unfortunately, she
didn't have a choice. If I don't hide my injury away, Matteo and Vivi will worry and ask about it when
they see it. Sasha popped her head out and scanned her son, who was in the bedroom. To her
surprise, the boy, who had been playing with his toy, shook his head and insisted, âNo. There's no
lady living here.â Sasha didnât know what to say. She was stunned for a few seconds because she
couldn't understand what she just heard. No lady living here? Sebastian heard their conversation at
that moment. He pushed the door open and asked, âWhat are you doing?â
Gah! Sasha saw him and was so surprised that she shut her mouth immediately. She grabbed a
random towel to hide her face. D*mn it. Why is this scum suddenly here? Shouldn't he be working in
the office? Sasha was a little nervous about seeing him at that moment because she was in a very
embarrassing situation then. In the end, she even needed him to show up and rescue her. Gah, this
feels awful. lan saw his daddy there, so the former got up from the play area and greeted,
âDaddy, you're back!â Sebastian nodded. His gaze calmly swept past the thin, crouching figure in
the washroom before he stretched his long legs and went to his son. âHow are you? Are you
alright?â âYeah,â replied lan, as he nodded calmly. Sebastian ruffled the kid's tiny head before
getting up and walking to the washroom. Sasha couldn't speak. She simply hid inside the
washroom.
