Chapter 1274

Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Hello? I wouldn’t even hesitate to run the trails if there were lab rats with similar conditions for me!

In the end, Xayden knew he had to start all over again because he couldn’t allow anything to go wrong.

When Vivian found out the things going on, she approached the aggrieved Xayden with some light
refreshments and said, “You don’t have to be upset! Just finish this and try again! I’m sure you can
save Mommy soon!”

Vivian was no longer the silly little girl she used to be. Instead, she seemed to have turned into an
understanding little girl.

Xayden spent most of his time in the treatment room.

Sebastian and Sasha knew it was only a matter of time until she could get rid of the radioactive
substances in her system.

Therefore, Sebastian knew it was time for him to join Devin at Naval Base.

Prior to Sebastian’s departure, Jonathan assured Sebastian the rest of his family was in good hands
with him, “You need to take good care of yourself. Just leave the rest to me. I’ll ensure everyone at
home is safe and sound.”

Sebastian nodded since he knew Jonathan would definitely keep everyone safe as long as they were
at Jadeborough.

He departed shortly after bidding farewell to the ones he held dear in mind.



Sasha had her eyes glued to the man’s departing figure until he made it out of the mansion. When she
turned around, she found out her sister-in-law had a relatively odd expression.

She asked, “Sab, are you okay?”

“H-Huh? O-Oh! I-I’m fine!” Sabrina shook her head and assured Sasha everything was fine because
she knew she had to keep the rest in the dark.

I need to keep Devin’s actual whereabouts a secret from the rest, but is it possible when Sebastian is
currently on his way to Naval Base? What if Sebastian finds out Devin isn’t there?

Sabrina’s mind was all over the place. Once she returned to her room, she accessed her phone to see
if the man had reverted to her.

Unfortunately, it had been two days since she last heard from Devin. Therefore, she couldn’t help but
wonder if his life was in danger.

What am I supposed to do? Jake! Jake’s at Coldbridge, isn’t he? I’ll call him and ask if he’s aware of
Devin’s whereabouts!

She made the call seconds after she thought of someone she could rely on. Nevertheless, it was
another futile attempt.

“The number you have dialed, cannot be reached at this moment—”

What is happening? Why can’t I reach him at all?

Unable to keep herself calm anymore, she switched off her phone and rushed out of the room while
yelling, “Sasha, where are you?”



“What’s wrong?” Sasha rushed out of the room when she was about to doll Vivian up after the little
girl’s shower.

“Sasha, Devin’s missing! What am I supposed to do?”

“Huh? What do you mean he’s missing? Hasn’t he headed to Naval Base ahead of Sebastian?”

“No! He headed to Coldbridge because of the marking he found on the piece of note your grandmother
left behind! It turned out to be an escape route! He told me to keep everyone in the dark because he
didn’t want to trouble anyone! However, it has been two days since I last heard from him!”

Sabrina finally let the cat out of the bag. She could barely finish her sentence without cracking her
voice.

Sasha couldn’t even catch her breath due to the absurdity of the truth.

Oh, God! Can they stop causing us trouble when things are so chaotic? Isn’t he aware we’re going to
be worried if something happens to him?

As infuriated as she might be, she reached for her phone and called Sebastian, who had just departed
a short while ago.

It took the man on the other end a few seconds to snap out of bewilderment. He was equally confused
and infuriated by the truth.

After suppressing to urge to go berserk, he instructed Sasha, “Alright, I’ll take a detour to Coldbridge at
once! I want you to tell Grandpa to send a team of fully equipped elite my way!”

“Alright!”



Sasha knew it was a serious issue. Thus, she rushed upstairs immediately after she wrapped up the
conversation with her husband.

When she found Jonathan, she told him everything, including Sebastian’s upcoming plan.

Jonathan couldn’t suppress the urge to pick on Devin. He reprimanded his grandson for being a fool
before instructing those from the military base to dispatch a team of elites to assist Sebastian.

Sabrina, who was there throughout the conversation, felt aggrieved and thought they shouldn’t blame
Devin when their safety was the sole reason behind his decisions.

Devin wasn’t as incompetent as Jonathan remarked—he made up his mind to check out the hideout
because he thought he possessed the capabilities to investigate it out without others.

After all, he was once the commander of the special forces.

They couldn’t get in touch with Devin because he was out of range of the reception towers. He had
long made it to the bottom of the river of Coldridge with Jake since that was the precise location of the
hideout.

“Devin, where are we? Are we still going ahead when we’ve been traveling nonstop for a little more
than two days?”
