The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian)

Chapter 1805

Around twenty minutes later, she'd arrived at the apartment.

When she got back to the apartment, she was panting heavily. Indeed, she saw Ian's pair of signature handmade shoes outside the apartment's door.

Sh*t! He's really still here. Susan's palms started sweating.

She then quickly opened the door with her keys and walked in. After throwing a cursory glance around the place, she noticed no one was around. She gulped and walked cautiously toward the tightly shut bedroom door and knocked on it.

Knock! Knock!

She leaned against the door and asked, “Ian, it's me. Are you inside?”

There was no response.

Although there was a pair of squeaky clean slippers outside the room, the silence she'd gotten was as if the room was empty.

Sh*t. I'm doomed. Is he mad? Beads of perspiration had already formed on Susan's forehead. NôvelDrama.Org content.

However, she still needed to complete her task. Susan took a deep breath and continued knocking on the door. “Ian, open the door, okay? Your mom had just called me. She told me to bring you to the Lowry family before it's too late. Be cooperative, okay?”

Again, she heard nothing in response.

“Ian, if you don't open the door now, I'll have to get the key to your room. Don't get angry at me by then, okay?” When Susan realized he wasn't going to open the door, she gave up knocking and decided to

get the key instead.

However, the door suddenly opened with a click the moment she turned around.

Susan froze upon seeing for the first time how frightening Ian could look.

He appeared in front of her in his blue shirt with white stripes. At that moment, his young and handsome face looked like a character out of a comic book. Despite his handsome face, his body was exuding a cold aura when he was glaring at her with his darkened eyes. His demeanor was so gloomy that Susan felt like a storm was fast approaching.

He remained silent as he glared at her.

When Susan saw him, she couldn't help but shudder. “I-Ian—”

“You're really quite something, Susan!” Ian uttered sarcastically.

Upon hearing that, Susan could feel her scalp going numb because he was speaking in a rather devilish tone. H-How is he so scary? All I did was get Yasmin to bring him to the party, no? He can choose not to go if he doesn't want to. Besides, didn't I come back already?

After gulping and composing herself, Susan uttered, “A-Are you angry? I'm sorry, Ian. It's just that I remember how well you got along with Yasmin. Since she's determined to turn over a new leaf, she—”

Bang!

Suddenly, something was thrown at her.

Instantly, Susan covered her ears and shrieked. The object that was thrown at her had shattered into pieces. Some of the pieces had even been flung toward her body.

“Listen carefully, Susan! You don't get to dictate what goes on in my life! Know your place!” Ian thundered before going back into his room and slamming the door.

Once again, the door was slammed shut.

Susan was utterly stunned. After standing still on the messy floor for quite a while, she lowered her gaze and looked at the smartphone that had been smashed into pieces. With tears in her eyes, she crouched down and picked up the shattered smartphone. He's right. I've been too full of myself, and I'm a nobody. I'm just here because I need the Jadesons to protect me. I shouldn't have gone over my head and wished for things for myself.

While sobbing, she picked up pieces after pieces of the shattered smartphone. As she was doing that, she noticed that her leg had suffered some cuts. She merely wiped it with a piece of tissue before heading to the washroom.

When she was done cleaning up the mess, she composed herself and sent a text to someone at Oceanic Estate: I'm so sorry, Sasha. I've failed to convince Ian. This is all my fault.

To which Sasha replied: It's all right. That's just his temper. I'd still like to thank you, though. It must've been tough.

Sasha was rather understanding and reasonable.

Susan's eyes were brimming with tears once again when she read Sasha's reply. She then quickly raised her head and put the smartphone aside. She'd only been able to regain her composure after some time.

That day, she didn't head out anymore.

Likewise, Ian's door was kept shut, and he stayed inside.

In the evening, when it was almost time for dinner, Susan went to the kitchen to see if they had any food left. Seeing that there wasn't much available at home, she grabbed her purse and went to the supermarket to grab some groceries.

The moment she left, Ian opened his door after locking himself inside for the whole afternoon.

Ian came out of the room and glanced around the apartment. Although his expression had remained tensed, he was clearly looking around the spot where he smashed the smartphone.

He then saw bloodstains on the floor, and the color started draining from his face.q
