Chapter 285 Kidnap


    Seeing that Laura finally agreed, Helena hurriedly stepped aside to make way for her with a content


    smile on her face. "Yeah, I''ll go. I won''t waste your time."


    Without sparing another look at Helena, Laura walked straight into the house as she murmured, "So


    freaking annoying. Who does she think she is?"


    Helena watched as Laura closed the door, and left the Hutchinson family''s residence reluctantly.


    ra, who just witnessed all that, didn''te forward to stop Helena. Instead, she just stood there


    watching Helena''s leaving figure, deep in thought.


    She felt a little ufortable and suspicious when she recalled the way Helena talked to Laura.


    Why was Helena so concerned about Laura?


    She went to Laura''s death anniversary despite the fact that she was seriously ill that day. She even


    pped ra for Laura.


    At first, ra thought that it might be because Helena had watched Laura grow up and had been taking


    care of her since Laura was little.


    Now that ra knew she wasn''t Helena''s biological daughter, she became more and more suspicious


    of Helena and Laura''s rtionship. Helena didn''t really act like a housekeeper around Laura.


    She acted more like Laura''s... ra was shocked by her own thoughts. It couldn''t be, could it? But that


    was the only reasonable exnation.


    "What are you doing here?" A voice sounded from behind and shocked ra out of her trance.


    ra turned around in a panic to find Logan standing right behind her.


    She breathed a sigh of relief. "You scared me."


    Logan curiously looked in the direction ra was staring at but found nothing. "What are you doing


    here?" Logan smiled as he repeated his question, taking in the cute expression on ra''s face.


    ra was relieved when she saw that Helena had left. She wouldn''t know how to exin Helena''s


    presence if Logan had seen her.


    "To see you." ra made up a random excuse.


    Hearing that, Logan asked in confusion, "Me? What''s matter? "


    "Nothing. Happened to drop by." ra was trying to up a detailed story in her head. "So I wanted to


    see if you are home or not. It''s a nice day to catch up. Don''t you think?"


    "Oh, is that so?" Logan doubted. He noticed that ra was avoiding eye contact when she said that


    and thought that she might be lying.


    But he believed that ra had no malicious intentions no matter what she was trying to hide from him.


    For some reason, Logan felt close to ra the first time he met her. Every time he saw her, he wanted


    to make her happy. He felt ineffably happy every time he saw her smile.


    But Logan knew very well that he was not into ra romantically. ra was more like a... a family


    member to him. He wanted to protect her from harm, wished her to be happy all her life, and hoped to


    see her smile every day. However, he didn''t have the kind of possessiveness that men usually had


    towards women.


    "Well, of course it is," ra responded. "I was just thinking about going in when you just popped up


    from nowhere. "Are you free right now?"


    "Yeah." Logan nodded.


    "Do you want to grab a coffee?" ra wanted to take the opportunity to pry on him about the


    rtionship between Helena and Laura.


    "Sure. Any specific ces you want to go?" Logan readily agreed.


    "You call the shots," ra answered. She didn''t really go to cafes that often.


    Logan nodded, turned around, and walked towards his car. ra hurriedly followed. Logan took her to


    a cafe that he usually went to.


    The two each ordered a cup of coffee, then sat down and start catching up.


    "How is Aunt Helena doing?" Logan asked when ra was just thinking about how to segue into this


    topic.


    "My mom is doing fine." ra decided against the idea of telling Logan that Helena had leukemia. "It''s


    just that she said she missed your sister since they haven''t seen each other for so long."


    "Really?" Logan answered. He then smiled and said, "Laura has always been Aunt Helena''s favorite. I''ll


    take Laura to visit her when I''m free."


    "Thanks." ra smiled back.


    Gently stirring the coffee with a spoon, ra asked, "I also think my mom really likes your sister. Have


    they always been this close?"


    "Yeah." Logan nodded, "Aunt Helena has been taking care of Laura this lovingly for as long as I can


    remember. Speaking of which, Laura is actually the reason she came to work for our family. "


    "Howe?" ra asked eagerly, looking nervous.


    Logan was a little puzzled seeing ra''s expression. But he brushed it off, thinking that she might just


    be curious. "Laura was once kidnapped in the delivery room when she was just born. Our whole family


    was going crazy because we couldn''t find her.


    In the end, Aunt Helena brought Laura back. My parents offered to give her a sum of money as a


    thank-you, but she wouldn''t take it. There was nothing we could do.


    Yearster, she came to our house to apply for a housekeeper job. My family recognized that she was


    the one who saved Laura. Seeing that she was living in poverty, they wanted to give her some money


    to express their gratitude.


    But she turned it down again, saying that it was nothing. She also said that we could just give her the


    job if we really wanted to thank her.


    My family agreed. Since then, Aunt Helena took on the responsibility of taking care of Laura. Laura was


    technically brought up by Aunt Helena." With that, Logan took a sip of the coffee leisurely.


    ra, on the other hand, was left in confusion. She couldn''t figure out how on earth did her mother find


    Laura.


    "Did my mother tell you how she found your sister?" ra asked, looking curious.


    "Well..." Logan thought about it for a moment but didn''t manage to recall any of the details.Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.
