h4Chapter 143: Chapter 141: Luna Sutton/h4

    "Luna, where are you?"

    Beside a thick white wall, a head wrapped tightly with only the eyes exposed poked out from inside.

    The eyes scanned around, and then quickly withdrew back.

    It was already 6 p.m., she should have left school, but... she was still afraid of being surrounded likest time!

    "At the school gate, it’s safe,e out, I parked the car near the school entrance."

    Hearing the voice from the phone, Elliana Lyle was slightly relieved, hurriedly walked out of the school. With summer approaching, the sun still hadn’t set, hanging red in the horizon.

    Leaving through the school’s big iron gate, she looked at the cars parked nearby, where was Luna’s car?

    Seeing one of the license tes startled her, it was familiar, but she couldn’t remember whose car it was.

    She thought for a long time but couldn’t recall.

    At this time, a female ssmate walked out from behind her. Her slow reaction made her not notice what the ssmate looked like.

    She only saw the graceful back, white shirt, jeans, the outfit enhancing a good figure, with the mid-ponytail making her look sunny and energetic.

    The ssmate walked towards the car she found familiar, then the car door opened from inside, until the ssmate got on and closed the door, she suddenly realized whose car it was.

    Just then Luna arrived, stopped the car in front of her, and lowered the window with a yful smile, "Sorry, there was a bit of traffic."

    However, Elliana just furrowed her brows, said nothing, and after getting in the car, pointed to thene of the car ahead, "Luna, follow them."

    Luna didn’t ask much and just followed, then slowly asked, "Who’s up there?"

    "I don’t know." She looked at the car ahead, her tone somewhat unsteady.

    She just didn’t know who the girl was, but her heart already starting to suspect that the girl might very well be Shawn Lyle’s new fling!

    ...

    ----- Central za.

    Their car followed into an underground parking lot, and as people got out of the front car, she closely watched the man.

    No mistake at all, that middle-aged man in ck clothes was indeed her father Shawn Lyle.

    At this time, the girl was intimately holding Shawn Lyle’s arm, her side profile showing an extremely happy smile, sunny and radiant.

    "Who are those two?" Luna curiously asked with her head tilted.

    Elliana calmly replied, "My father."

    "Huh?" Luna heard this and froze suddenly, then turned sharply to stare at her, then looked relieved, "So that’s your stepmother huh? Your dad’s a beast, finding you such a young stepmother."

    It’s not surprising that Shawn Lyle found her a stepmother, but she resented how he brought people home right after her mother’s death, so heartless, so detestable!

    Originally nning to visit the Lyle family tomorrow, she felt it unnecessary anymore, even if she was being petty.

    "Let’s follow them and see." Luna had already opened the door and then opened Elliana’s car door.

    Seeing Elliana, who didn’t look like she wanted to move at all, Luna said, "Let’s go take a look, we are at the mall anyway, we can eat before heading back."

    "Come on! You’ve wrapped up like this, your dad won’t recognize you."

    ...

    In the end, she was dragged off the car by Luna, listlessly being pulled along.

    At this moment, Luna’s expression was clearly not curiosity, a glint of hatred shed in her eyes.

    They followed all the way to a self-service barbecue restaurant, the girl pointed coquettishly at the sign of the restaurant, Shawn Lyle amiably agreed.

    This scene was very familiar, she also once begged Shawn Lyle to eat barbecue with her on her birthday, but he left for work, and it ended up being her mother taking her out to eat.

    Of course, their rtionship was different and not worthparing.

    "Come on, let’s go in and eat." Luna pulled her to go inside.

    "Luna!"

    Elliana pulled her hand back, Luna looked at her, she shook her head and said, "Let’s go back, I don’t want to see them."

    "Afraid of what? We’re perfectly justified."

    After entering the barbecue restaurant, Luna pulled her to slowly head towards the seats behind Shawn Lyle. Passing by, she couldn’t help but nce at her father’s figure.

    However, Shawn Lyle didn’t recognize her.

    She and Shawn Lyle sat back to back, separated by a table.

    After the waiter left, Luna asked, "What do you want to eat? I’ll get it."

    "Anything is fine."

    The aroma of grilled meat wafted around, while she looked at the screen on her phone, Luna propped her phone on the table, allowing her to see the interaction between the two from the small screen.

    The girl grilled the meat, smiling happily, looking very pretty, about the same age as her, yet was about to be her stepmother.

    "Eat, I prepared you sauce that isn’t too spicy." Luna picked up a cut steak and ced it on her te.

    The meat was slightly charred, the golden pieces seemed crispy, and with an alluring aroma, indeed tempting the appetite.

    But she had no interest in the meat in front of her.

    "Let me tell you, what’s the use of being angry at times like these? Why act so weak and useless? My dad married another woman three days after my mom died, guess what my brother and I did?"

    These words piqued her curiosity a bit, she raised her head, shifting her gaze from the phone screen, slowly looking across the table at Luna.

    "That woman was just after my dad’s money. My dad was infatuated, andter that woman instigated my dad to kick me and my brother out of the house."

    "Penniless, we once begged on the street, my brother also worked, and because the boss refused to pay, my brother got so angry, that boss almost beat my brother to death."

    Luna took a sip of water, with a hint of disdain in her eyes.

    "And then?" She suddenly realized Luna wasn’t a pampered rich girl, but had a painful hidden past.

    "Later..."

    It was a bright afternoon, the sun was big, and the concrete ground was scorching hot...

    "Brother... Brother... sob sob..."

    A little girl about five or six years old knelt on the ground, her clothes were very dirty, dirtied so much that the original color was unrecognizable.

    On the groundy a slender teenager, his face almost covered with purplish red bruises, extending to the arms under his short sleeves, and most concerning was the fruit knife in his belly.

    The teenager opened his dull eyes, he was very tired, a kind of indescribable exhaustion, with his sister’s cries in his ears, yet he couldn’t speak, couldn’t sayforting words.

    "Hah! You filthy mutts, dared to take me on, think I can’t kill you? This ce’s under mymand!" A middle-aged man spat on the ground, a pale green liquid dried quickly on the concrete.

    The man was bald, also bearing bruises on his face, after spitting he returned to the auto repair shop, nevering back out.

    "Brother... let’s go back... let’s go back and find dad..." The little girl’s soft sobbing voices seemed to stir a bit of reaction from the teenager.

    The teenager slightly raised his hand, looking as though he had no strength, as he continued to lift it, even his lips couldn’t stop trembling.

    Eventually, his hand touched the little girl’s face.

    "No..." The teenager tried to say something, yet no sound came out, instead provoking louder cries from the little girl.

    This was a corner of the city, Luna Sutton and Owen Sutton were lying at the entrance to an auto repair shop, behind Luna, was a narrow road, no cars nor anyone braving the sun at this time.

    Suddenly, a few teenagers emerged from the auto repair shop, they were apprentices at the shop, and a few walked toward them, seemingly wanting to carry Owen Sutton away.
