Not long after Juju ran away, she saw someone catching up behind her.
There was a small alley in front of her. However,there might be no way out if she ran into it. Just as she was hesitating about her next step, someone suddenly reached out and pulled her in.
“Hush, don’t say anything.”
Juju was stunned. She frowned when she realized that the person who pulled her in was none other than Vincent.
Vincent could tell that from her expression as well. He took a step back subconsciously and did not approach her.
When the bodyguards caught up to the alley with Juju was nowhere to be found, they quickly turned around and left.
After they left, Vincent said, “They’re gone, you’re safe now.”
Juju frowned. “Although you saved me, I still won’t forgive you!”
Last time,her Mommy had to suffer a lotbecause of him. She would never be able to forget this matter!
Vincent did not say a word. “It no longer matters!”
After that, he stood up and left with his schoolbag on his back.
After a few steps, he turned to look back at Juju. “Since there’s someone who is out to catch you, you have to be careful. You’d better inform your father as soon as possible!”
“I don’t need you to tell me that!”
Vincent nodded and continued walking.
Juju frowned. She didn’t know what was the problem with this coward. However, what he said was right. She had to contact Wesley first.
After hanging up the phone, Juju followed Wesley’s request, which was to wait for him at the front. As she lowered her head, she saw a drop of blood on the ground.
Vincentseemed to have bumped into the wall next to him when hepulled her in just now. Could it be his blood?
Juju frowned, but soon, she snorted again.
He deserved it!
Since he had done something bad, he shall get his retribution!
…
After the ident that day, Charlie had been protecting Eudora and Amos in the hospital, whereas Wesley was now taking care of Juju at home. When he got the news, he immediately came to fetch Juju back home.
“Miss Juju, who wants to catch you?” Wesley asked.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.
Juju shook her head. “I don’t know him, but that person ims to be my grandfather. But I already have my Grandpa! So I ran away.”
Charlie had told him about Tyler earlier that day. It seemed that Tyler was about to make a move on young Juju.
Just as Wesley was thinking about whether he should inform Eudora about this, Juju spoke again.
“Uncle Wesley, could you not tell my Mommy about this? She is not in good health now, and my brother and father are still in the hospital. I don’t want her to worry about me.”
Wesley frowned. “But…”
“There’s no ‘but’, Uncle Wesley. I’ll protect myself. Besides, don’t I have you with me? From tomorrow onwards, I’ll wait for you to arrive beforeing out of my ssroom, okay?”
Wesley nodded and said, “Alright!”
He also knew that Eudora was currently in a truly tight spot as well. He could only try to reduce the burden on her a little.
Over the next few days, Juju remained cautious and stayed in her ssroom every day, waiting for Wesley to arrive. At the same time, she also realized that Vincent would stay in school toplete his homework every day.
While she was sitting there, he would work on his homework behind hersilently.
This situation was seen by a very busybody student in the ss. The ssmate then started to spread the news around the ss that Vincent had a crush on Naomi.
Although Juju had directly admonished her ssmate, she still felt unhappy about it. When she finished school and saw Vincent sitting thereagain, Juju immediately scolded him.
“I don’t like you, and I won’t admit that you are my rtive. I hope you can stay away from me in the future!”
Vincent did not say anything as he packed his thingssilentlyand left.
When school ended the next day, Juju found that she was the only one left in the ss. She subconsciously looked in that particr direction, but there was no one.
When she got into the car, Juju was still a little unhappy. Wesley saw it, so he asked,
“You miss your Mommy, don’t you? I heard from Aunt Cindy that your Mommy has been much better these days.Shallwe visit them today?”
“Really?” Juju immediately abandoned the pity she had for Vincent. After all, in the hearts of the children, their mother would be more important than anything else.
“Shall we get some flowers too? Mommy will be very happy when she receives them!” Juju said excitedly.
…
After failing to get hold of Juju that day, thepetitive evil spirit deep in Tyler’s heart was aroused.
It was one thing that he couldn’t control his own daughter, but now she wouldn’t even acknowledge him. The more Tyler thought about it, the angrier he became.
“It seems like my current approach isn’t going to work. I guess it has to be forced then!”
The bodyguard was shocked and he immediately said, “I shall immediately bring a few people to kidnap Amos!”
“You idiot!” Tyler gritted his teeth. “If he dies on my watch, my daughter will never forgive me for the rest of her life. Are you going to bear the responsibility?”
Although Tyler was very powerful, he still was someone who had started from the underworld in the past. Hence, the bodyguards around him were not very well educated.
They were all rough men, so they could be quite reckless in the things they do!
“What should we do then, boss?” It was a bit difficult to deal with the situation since they could not use brute force.
Tyler frowned and said, “Isn’t there another person in Valiant East who has been fighting against Amos? Let’s help her!”
The bodyguard still didn’t understand. “Boss? Why?”
Tyler nced at him. “Since I’ve ordered you to go and get it done, then just go do it. If you don’t understand why, you can just keep your mouth shut then!”
He felt really sorry for himself. Why did he have such idiots as his subordinates? The bodyguards immediately went to arrange it. Tyler then took a deep breath, picked up the photo on the table again, and looked longingly at the woman in the photo.
In the picture, she would forever be at the age of 39, just as beautiful as she has always been.
Tyler closed his eyes and remembered the first time he saw Emily.
At that time, he was just a gangster. At that time, he was just a hothead like his bodyguards. When he was out to collect protection fees, he would start a fight with others, even over just a small disagreement.
He thought that he was young and strong, but he didn’t expect that his opponent was a martial arts practitioner. He was beaten so badly that he ended up with a bruised nose and swollen faceon the streets.
He remembered that it was a rainy day. It was drizzling, and his eyes were open as hey on the ground without any strength left.
Everyone avoided him as though he was a contagious leper, and there was only one woman who walked towards him.
She was holding a vintage umbre and she had two braids. She wore a white European-style dress, and it was obvious that she was a youngdy from a wealthy family.
Thedy knelt in front of him and handed him a piece of bread.
Then, she smiled at him.
That smile was what made him fall head over heels for her. He had never seen such a beautiful smile. It was so pure and genuine and it looked as though ithad never been dirtied by this world.
At that moment, Tyler seemed to see a rainbow streaking across his eyesamongst the light drizzle.
That rainbow was destined to be in his heart forever.
