Chapter 14
Lauren had another n today but she was more likely to see Leo. She got up early today and the
servants downstairs were surprised to see her. One of them was called Edna, a very capable woman in
her 30s.
Edna led Lauren to the dinning hall and Jeffery was there too. It seemed that he was thinking about
something, but when he saw Lauren, he immediately changed his expression and smiled at Lauren. He
said good morning.
Lauren liked staying with Jeffery. She nodded and smiled back to him, which made Jeffery even
happier.
During the breakfast, Jeffery said two things. The first thing was about shares that her grandfather
decided to give herst night, and she would meet with awyer and sign a few documents.
Lauren nodded.
Another thing was about Wendy’s dereliction of dutyst night. Jeffery exined and told Lauren
Monica was also involved. “They have been fired. I will not let anyone hurt you,” Jeffery said in a soft
but serious voice.
Lauren was still having breakfast.
Edna was sent by Jeffery to take care of Lauren. Jeffery made great effort to find Lauren back and
prepared almost everything when Lauren was back to the Bet family.
This time, Jeffery just went back from abroad and he would help Lauren solve all the problems. Lauren
was his sister and Jeffery
didn’t allow anyone to bully her.
After a while, Lauren said, “Isn’t she Sally’s assistant?”
In fact, Lauren was asking Jeffery whether Sally would be okay with that after he fired her assistant.
Jeffery did not directly answer Lauren’s question, but just said one thing, “In the second half of the
year, Darren will go abroad and be an exchange student for one year.”
Lauren raised her head and looked at Jeffery in shock.
Jeffery replied with a gentle smile to her, and said, “He is an adult No matter what the reason is, he
shouldn’t hurt you. This is his
punishment.”
“Lauren, you are my sister and this is your home. If you encounter anything unpleasant, just tell me. I
will support you all the time no matter what happens. Remember, no one can criticize you,” Jeffery
continued.
Lauren lowered her head, and cried quietly. She was lucky that Jeffery was her brother. She loved the
feeling of being supported. Lauren thought she was not alone anymore. It turned out that it was not so
bad toe back to the Bet family. Here, she could get love and support from her grandfather and
brother.
The maids in the dinning hall all went out, leaving Jeffery telling Lauren what happened after she was
lost when she was five
years old.
“After you got lost, the whole Bet family was in chaos. Mother was almost crazy and insane, and as
long as she saw a little girl about the same age as you, she would rushed up and call her your
nickname. Darren, who was less than one year old at the time,
was once almost suffocated by mother.”
“Grandpa used all means, but still couldn’t find you.”
“After a few months, mother’s situation was getting worse and worse. She even couldn’t recognize us
so father took Sally back.” “Mother thought of Sally as you, and she kept her in her arms all the time.”
“After Sally arrived, mother’s situation gradually got better, and it was not until three yearster that she
led a normal live like
before.”
Jeffery said a lot. Lauren could imagine the chaos of the Bet family after she was lost and could
imagine her mother’s grief. And after knowing everything, Lauren didn’t know how to get along with
Mrs. Bet.
It had been 18 years since she was missing so things changed.

“Lauren,” Jeffery suddenly called her, looking at her seriously, “I’m telling you this, not for mother, but
for you.”
“Me?” Lauren was surprised.

you.”
“Yes,” Jeffery smiled. He was always like a warm spring breeze.
“I’m not forcing you to forgive mother, I just want to tell you the truth and I don’t want you to think that
Dad and Mom don’t like
Lauren touched the chain in her hand, and in the middle of the chain was a small sign with her name
engraved on it. Because of
this chain, she did not change her family name after being raised by her ‘grandfather‘. It was also
because of this chain that she was
found by the Bet family.
Jeffery said that he didn’t want Lauren to bear any grudge against her parents, but in fact, he was
wrong. Lauren didn’t hate them at all if she was lost for eighteen years.
It had been so many years since she was missing. No one can turn back time. So Lauren had already
decided to let things go. She never med her parents, but was just a little disappointed in them.
Lauren didn’t want to ask them to love her as they did to Sally. She just want them to be fair when
facing Sally and her.
After having an appointment with thewyer, Lauren went to see Leo.
