Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 844

Sasha was thinking of apologizing to appease him enough to stay.

Before she could finish, Devin interjected. “I want to ask you something. If something were to happen to your child that day, what would you do?”

“What?”

“I know that it wasn’t my mother’s doing. But the fact remains that your children were still poisoned. After that, you have nursed the children back to health fairly quickly. Forgive me for being presumptuous, but I can’t help suspecting that you’ve concocted that story to set my mother up.”

Sasha was stunned, not expecting him to have turned it around against her.

She stared at him with wide unblinking eyes, wondering if she had misheard him.

“What are you saying? What story?”

“Do you not understand? I sympathize with what you did, I really do. Charles and his family are gone. Connor is no longer here as well. The only person left to have caused your family to be broken up is me. Isn’t dealing with me the next logical step for you?”

As he spoke, he reached a hand out toward her face.

Before Sasha could react, she felt two fingers beneath her chin preceding a forceful tug and a sudden chill. Her mask was peeled off so quickly that it took her completely by surprise.

“You-”

Her mind a blank, she stood glaring at him wordlessly.

Devin too was momentarily stunned, not expecting to actually peel off her face.

Another possible reason for his reaction was that it was the first time he was gazing upon the true face of the woman whose death he had almost caused.
