NovelEnglishWhat happened to him?
Sasha felt more and more frightened. She stopped calling him but followed the direction of his gaze
and looked at the person lying on the bed.
Finally, her pupils shrunk suddenly, when she saw a pair of familiar hands.
Those were Frieda’s hands.
This old lady, even though she was advanced in age, was hidden for many years by Frederick in a
secret basement and had never done any physical work.
And so, her fingers were fine and beautiful and they looked like a little girl’s hands. Later on, each time
Sasha saw them, she would be full of praise for these hands.
Sasha’s mind buzzed.
Falling and stumbling, she approached the bed and pulled back the white sheet from the person’s face
with trembling hands.
“Mom…”
Desperately, she covered her mouth with her hands and huge drops of tears rolled down her cheeks,
like a string of broken pearls spilling from her eyes.
It is really Frieda!
How did this happen?
She had really met her death!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, the agent she hired had told her with certainty that it happened on the train. Why is this man
guarding her now? Why?
Sasha felt as if her heart had been cut open.
After a long time, she slowly pulled down the white sheet; then, she saw clearly the gunshot wound on
the woman’s chest.
“Mrs. Hayes, Madam Frieda was killed by the bullet when she shielded the president from the shooter.
Karl had arrived at the door and seeing her, he had explained how the incident happened.
She shielded him from a shooter?
How did it happen? Why would Frieda shield him from a bullet?
Sasha turned to face him. “What happened? Where did you go yesterday?”
“Yesterday…”
“Drag her out of here!”
After maintaining silence all this while on his seat, he suddenly started yelling.
The hoarse voice, speaking with unprecedented hatred and fury, stunned the two people in the ward.
Sasha thought she was mistaken.
Is she ordering me to be dragged out?
In utter bewilderment, Karl looked at his boss.
“Sebby, don’t be sad. I know, yesterday, I was…” Sasha came to her senses, believing that he was
mistaken about her, thinking that she had not done anything after knowing about Frieda.
So, she tried to explain.
However, even as she began to speak, he suddenly roared at her with uncontrollable rage. “I’m asking
you to get out. Haven’t you heard me?”
The whole ward buzzed with the roar of his anger.
Sasha was stunned!
She opened her eyes wide. For a few seconds, it seemed as if she did not know this man.
Am I seeing things?
Did he actually shout at me? Did he also ask me to get lost?
Her eyes were red and in an instant, the tears of being wrongfully accused filled her eyes.
“What is wrong with you? I… I know that yesterday when Mom met with this disaster, I could not come
back on time. I really did not want this to happen to her. I had been busy for the past one day and one
night.”
The injustice she felt weighed so heavily on her that she wept aloud in his presence.
However, he was totally unsympathetic. He glared at her, cold and distant, with a strange expression
on his face as if he was a totally different person.
“You had been busy? Really? What were you busy doing? So, Sasha Wand, come on, tell me what you
have been busy doing for this one whole day and one night? Please tell me.”
He sneered and laughed with sarcasm as if he had heard a silly joke. Then he asked Sasha to tell him
what kept her so busy?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSasha was dumbfounded.
What have I done?
Unfortunately, everything that she had done must be kept a secret from him.
She could not reveal that she had been dealing with Yancy and had hired someone to rescue Frieda.
The other deeds like going to the legal department to steal the master tape too had to be kept secret. If
he were to find out, he would certainly be more furious.
Sasha’s face turned pale.
“Sebby, you… listen to me. I have not done anything disloyal to you. I only… only…”
“You knew who had taken my mother away but you didn’t tell me. Was that not betraying me?”
Sasha was speechless.
“Furthermore, haven’t you known my real identity for a long time?
Suddenly he leaped up from his seat like a demon and was right in front of her in one step!
Sasha retreated a few steps!
She lifted her eyes to look at him and instantly, her blood ran cold.
“This morning, when the Jadesons pointed the gun at my chest and my Mom rushed over to shield me.
At that moment, I realized that I was the biggest fool in the world. Do you know that?”
Sasha listened in silence.
“When you asked me to stay away from Devin, I thought you knew that he was the bad company and
you were worried that something untoward could happen to me.”
“To stop me from keeping company with Devin, you didn’t hesitate to take action on Sabrina; yet I still
believed that you were momentarily confused and acted on impulse. Sasha, don’t you think I am a
fool?”
He forced her into a corner and shouted at her one question after another in a hoarse broken voice.
