Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 87

They headed to the office in silence, and Sasha figured that Sebastian still hated her.

Maybe he doesn’t even remember that I’m here… As she calmed down, her disappointment returned as well.

After they reached the office building, Sebastian pulled into the reserved parking spot and alighted from the car to ride his exclusive lift to his office.

Sasha did the same, only to be stopped by him.

“What do you think you’re doing?” he asked coldly.

Sasha froze. He finally spoke up…

She shrugged nonchalantly. “I’m going outside, Mr. Hayes. No one in this company knows me, and I’d rather not let them see me with you.”

With that, she grabbed her bag and scurried off before he could say anything in response.

He stood rooted to the ground in silence as his face darkened like the sky before a storm, but he left soon after without another word.

As for Sasha, she walked into the building through the front door with her head held high after escaping from the carpark.

“Greetings, miss. May I ask what you’re here for?”

“Oh… who? Me?”

Sasha was distracted for a moment as she stared at the receptionist in confusion.

Wait, what’s my position again? What am I going to do? Wait for him to assign me work after I go to his office? That’s going to take forever!

He might even have forgotten about me, considering how much he hates me…

She frowned and decided to give it a shot. “I’m here to look for a job. Are there any vacant positions in your company?”

“Huh? You’re looking for a job? Have you sent your resume to our HR department yet?” the receptionist asked, shocked.

Does she think that this is a market where she could just pick and choose a job as she wishes?

Unbeknownst to the receptionist, that was exactly what Sasha was going to do.

All she needed was a job to satisfy her son’s request, and she decided on a clerk position in the business department in the end.

After a few seconds, his confused expression turned into a smug grin.

Wait… why is he smirking?

Did he already know that she’s going to the business department or something?

“Did you see this coming, Mr. Hayes?” Luke asked, confused.

Sebastian shook his head with a grin. “She’s just here to fulfil Ian’s request, so there’s no way she’ll take this seriously. I bet she chose the business department out of interest.”

“Interest? She likes doing business?”

“I think so. Do you remember that call from Nikkawa-Gen?” Sebastian asked.

Luke froze for a moment. “Nikkawa-Gen? Do you mean that company that we didn’t manage to acquire?”

“Yeah. She was the one who took the call, and she noticed things that even the vice president of the business department didn’t see. She’s talented, so I’m not surprised she picked that department in the end,” Sebastian answered calmly.
