After Lena returned Tyson, she called Mr. H, but he didn't answer.

She worried that he might be sick at home again, so she sent several messages in a row.

He used to reply instantly before, but this time he unexpectedly replied after half an hour.

"I was busy, had a few things to do."

Lena quickly called him again, and he answered, but his voice sounded a bit off.

"Mr. H, were you sick again?"

"No, Wraith Manor has become very busy lately."

She didn't know about Wraith Manor and thought that the place was like a company, where employees would be given time off.

She took a deep breath, and by that time the car had already stopped at the entrance of the supermarket.

"Will you still have dinner with me tomorrow night? I don't know if you will be available."

There was silence for a few seconds on the other side, and then a sigh, "Let's talk later, I am really busy."

A touch of disappointment crossed Lena's eyes

    Marvin thought that today was going to end like this, but Hunter took out his phone and made a call to the old man."Father."Cayden recently started meeting guests, and at the moment, he is playing chess with the old man from the Wright family."What happened?""I saw Marvin on the street, he was injured a bit, so I brought him to the hospital."The old man's hand paused on the chess piece, his tone was very calm, "Is it serious?""Not serious, but unable to attend the dinner tomorrow evening."Marvin sat on the side, watching him speak nonsense with his eyes open.In the Reid family, the grandfather was the most authoritative figure, and no one dared to lie in his presence. However, when Hunter said these things, he didn't even blink."Not serious is good, the body is important."After hanging up the phone, Hunter looked at Marvin and said, "You take another two months off, and don't show up at the Reid Group an

    When Cayden heard that Hunter was getting closer to Lena, the smile on Cayden's face faded slightly, but he still said, "Hunter, that child never lies. If he says he doesn't like Lena, then he doesn't like her. From childhood to now, he has never liked anything. Maybe it's just not the right time for them to meet."Anthony slowly placed a photo on the table.This was the party where Lena sat on Hunter's lap, and there was a photo of them kissing.Even the photos were there, indicating that he had made preparations before coming."Sir Reid, Hunter has grown up and may have his own ideas now. If Matilda were still here, their children could be running around by now. Unfortunately, as an elder, I shouldn't be concerned with Lena, who is a distant relative of the Wright family. However, because she lost one, I have to care, no matter how broad-minded I am. Hunter is a child I have watched grow up, and I don't want him to go astray."Families valued the

    "Ms. Dawson, you still don't remember anything? You've been in the hospital for three days now. We need your family to settle the hospital bill ASAP," the nurse said.Lena Dawson, her head wrapped in bandages, gave an apologetic smile. "Sorry, but I just can't remember my phone's password."The nurse continued, "Do you have an emergency contact?""I..."Lena hadn't even thought of an answer when the door suddenly swung open with a bang. A handsome young man walked in, his face full of impatience."Seriously? Again? What game are you playing this time?" Hayden Reid snapped. "You took Leah out, and then a car accident happened. She could've been disfigured if it weren't for her luck. Listen up, I'm calling off our engagement. Stop trying to get my attention. Even if you threw yourself into a river, I wouldn't give a damn!"Leah Dawson stood right behind him, looking meek.She tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Hayden, I'm really fine. Lena didn't mean it. I'm all healed now. Don't get

    After saying that, he wrapped his arms around Leah's waist and left without hesitation.Lena looked at the number on her phone. The man who just claimed to be her fiancé hadn't shown her any concern at all and had stood up for Leah instead.Her heart felt as if it was being tightly constricted by an iron wire, and her face paled even further. An involuntary pain surged within her.Leah seemed to have fully recovered a long time ago, but it was Lena who was condemned despite almost losing her life.How could this man possibly be her fiancé?She had gone missing for three days, and her family had not contacted her. She only remembered a vague impression of her boyfriend.Without hesitation, she dialed the number. A formal, assistant-like voice answered."Ms. Lena?""Hello, is this Hunter? I seem to have lost my memory due to a car accident, and I...""Mr. Hunter has just returned to Westfell and is still undergoing rehabilitation. Ms. Lena, you called Mr. Hunter in the same way last tim

    Lena didn't know who to ask for the 3,200 dollars. In the end, at nine o'clock in the evening, she dialed Hunter's number again.A low, hoarse voice rang out from the other end, like snowflakes in the winter."Lena?"Lena's throat felt as if it had been suddenly gripped by an invisible hand, and an overwhelming sense of grievance filled her heart."Hello, Hunter. Can you lend me 3,200 dollars? I'm in the hospital and can't afford the hospital bills."From the phone, there was a faint breathing sound, along with the subtle sound of rustling clothes.Just when Lena thought her request would be rejected, she heard him ask, "What's your account number?""I... I'll go look for it."She quickly grabbed the bag next to her and started searching through it, afraid that Hunter would hang up.The nurse said it was her bag, but there were only cosmetics inside.She finally found a bank card in the innermost compartment and read aloud the card number.In less than a minute, she heard the notifica

    Lena took the slap, her head tilting slightly to the side. Her eyes were dull.Leah quickly walked over to Margaret's side to soothe her. "Mom, I'm really fine. There's only 160 thousand dollars on the card. I was afraid Lena would continue spending recklessly like before, so I didn't prepare too much."Lena's throat felt sore. She abruptly opened the door of the taxi parked next to her and said, "Could you please go to..."But she couldn't recall any place names in her mind, so she could only watch the family of four slowly walking inside through the car window.The driver said, "Are they your family or your enemies? You didn't even say anything just now, how did you get slapped? I don't want the money anymore. You can get out of the car now."Tears welled up in Lena's eyes and fell in an instant. She also wanted to ask, were they really family or were they enemies?Leah, who had walked away, held Hayden's hand. There was a trace of pride flickering in her eyes."Mom, Hayden, what if

    Lena had grievances she couldn't voice, but seeing Joanna so exhausted, she didn't want to say anything.Joanna placed a new set of pajamas on the bed and said, "There is an en-suite bathroom in your room. You should go and take a shower and rest. I'm so tired today that I won't chat with you anymore."Lena nodded and calmly said, "Thank you."She saw Joanna walking towards one of the bedroom doors and knew that the other room was hers.She grabbed her pajamas and took a shower. Afterward, she finally felt much more comfortable.Just as Lena was about to fall asleep, she received a new message on her phone.When she opened it, she saw that it was from her younger brother, Randy Dawson."Lena, I'm on vacation and just arrived home. Today is Leah's birthday. Why aren't you here? Mom said you ran away from home again. Why are you always acting like this? Come back soon. I can't get used to the food the maid makes. I still prefer the food you make. Tomorrow morning, I'll have mashed potat

    After Lena finished eating, before leaving, she hesitated and asked, "Can you lend me some money first?"Joanna took a deep breath and said, "The cufflinks you gave to Hayden last week cost 32,000 dollars, and now you're telling me you don't have any money?"Lena scratched her cheek sheepishly and explained, "I borrowed money from someone to pay for hospital bills yesterday. Um, I'll repay you in the future."Joanna transferred 1,600 dollars to Lena, patted her shoulder, and said, "Your family has been restricting your expenses for quite a while, and you like to save all your money to buy gifts for Hayden, and even please his relatives. Forget it, it's useless to say more. You don't have to return this money. If you don't have a place to stay tonight, you can continue to come here."Lena felt touched.Now that she had decided to work at the Reid Group, she needed to go back to her own home to find documents like her ID card.When she arrived at the Dawson family's house, she felt a bi

    Randy did not catch the hidden meaning behind this sentence, he just stared at Tyson in a daze.Tyson seemed to have a feeling, he turned his head and glanced in that direction, then continued to smile at Lena.The two of them also didn't know what they talked about afterwards, they stood up together and walked towards the outside of the hospital.They were just like real siblings.Randy pulled the curtains of his ward closed and slowly sat down by the bed.Elyse was no longer in the ward at the moment. She went downstairs and called Joanna, asking her what her plans were.She had previously threatened Joanna that if she didn't help her find a way to get rid of Lena, she would immediately betray Joanna.Joanna's tone was neither fast nor slow."Elyse, tomorrow is New Year's Eve. I will ask Lena who she is going to have dinner with. She either wants to go with Randy or spend time with her mysterious boyfriend. Do you know what t

    When she was being sent out the door, she couldn't help but ask, "What happened to Mr. Reid?""It's nothing, just got stressed out, and also haven't been resting well lately."She took a few steps forward and then stopped, "Still having insomnia? I can stay here tonight and leave in the morning."James stood in front of the car and, upon hearing the words, took a deep breath. "Ms. Dawson, take care and have a good year."This was a polite refusal.After Lena got on the car, she didn't go home, but went to the entrance of Randy's hospital room.Throughout the journey, her mind was in a state of confusion, unable to see through Hunter's intentions, so she felt a bit irritated.This kind of irritability was instantly magnified when seeing Randy, who was silent.Randy had already woken up, the fever had subsided, but he didn't call her, and now he was quietly eating the porridge that Elyse had fed him.Lena had many things s

    Lena sat in Hunter's car, feeling somewhat uneasy for no apparent reason.Since Kianna's death, she felt like she had fallen into a trap.The car stopped in Palm Bay, and she didn't get out. After thinking for two minutes, she finally asked, "Mr. Reid, are you going to personally interrogate Kianna?"Emmett had no intention of letting her go tonight. Now that she has been brought here, does it mean that Hunter has something to ask?She couldn't understand it.Hunter's wheelchair had touched the ground. Upon hearing these words, he paused for a few seconds and then silently continued moving forward.Lena had no choice but to follow.She hesitated for a moment at the door of his bedroom and then slowly walked in.The bedside of the bedroom still had those plum blossoms, I don't know what technique was used, but surprisingly they are still fresh until now.She had intended to ask, but she heard his phone ring.His fa

    There were only the two of them in the room, and Emmett happened to dislike her. Lena suspected that if she said something that made him uncomfortable, he would pull out a gun and kill her on the spot."Mr. Wright, do you believe me when I say that this matter had nothing to do with me?"A hint of amusement flickered in Emmett's eyes as he used a cigarette to lift her chin."You don't have the memories from before, so you probably don't know that this is not the first time the Wright family has died because of you. The Wright family has given the order to make you pay the rightful price, so regardless of whether you are involved or not, you have to..."The words were not finished yet when the door nearby was knocked by someone.Emmett looked up and saw Hunter.He thought he was having an illusion, how could Hunter appear in this place?Hunter sat in a wheelchair, his gaze falling on the cigarette in his hand.The cigarette ligh

    Lena didn't say anything. Last time, she had asked Mr. H's friend to help with the body, but Kianna wasn't the kind of person who could just disappear easily.Although she was not popular in the Wright family, she did make an appearance in front of so many people.If she went missing, the Wright family would soon investigate.Lena felt troubled, always feeling like everything was a big web, as if someone was pushing it.Jovanni's tone became cautious, "Lena, it really wasn't me."Just as Lena was about to comfort her, sirens suddenly blared around them.Several police cars stopped around her, and they immediately handcuffed her with silver handcuffs.The whole process took only five minutes. She wanted to say a few words to Jovanni, but the police forcefully took her away.Jovanni stood in place, watching as the body was also taken away, feeling a chill run down his spine.Realizing what had happened, he immediately walk

    Kianna's lips were trembling, her eyes were turning red, and the words she spoke were slightly broken."You made my boyfriend get exiled by Jordan, and you ruined his whole life. I never expected that the owner of this number would be you, which means that all of this was planned by you! Lena, I hate you so much!"Her eyes were filled with hatred, but she reluctantly stepped back in fear of the dagger in Lena's hand.Lena squatted on the ground, looking into her eyes, "Did you really not contact Lillian?"Kianna's face changed, how could she not have contacted Lillian.Lena wanted to ask a few more questions, but she faintly saw a person standing below the small building, as if they had just come out.It was Mr. H.She quickly got up, and at the same time threw the dagger back into the car, and instructed Jovanni."You keep an eye on her, I'll go talk to Mr. H."Jovanni also noticed the man standing several meters away.
