Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control novel Chapter 78

Aaron quickly put on his shoes and ran to Sophia.

They hugged each other happily. "Sister! I'm so glad to see you again!"

"Me too! Why are you still so thin, Aaron?" Sophia smiled, looking at her brother with teary eyes. Aaron was now a head taller than her. Although he looked healthier than he did two weeks ago, he still looked like a bamboo stick.

And his dark skin had started to turn pale, the evidence of his suffering slowly fading away.

She knew Colin had hidden Aaron somewhere, but she never expected him to be in the hospital. Her brother was taking care of their father in her stead.

"I've put on a lot of weight, the hospital food is good!" Everyday, he ate two or three meals in the hospital.

Sophia nodded. "Aaron, have been you taking care of father all this time?"

"Kind of. Brother-in-law offered me a job, so I've been working as a security guard in the SL Group. The salary is good. He also said that when father's condition improves, he would send me back to school." Aaron's performance in school was good. But he had to give up studying because of what happened to their family.

Brother-in-law... Sophia savored the word. And Colin had given Aaron a job. He had also promised to send Aaron back to school as soon as their father had recovered.

Mixed feelings filled her heart.

She walked up to Jay's hospital bed, where he was sleeping soundly. Aaron quietly briefed her. "Father is receiving psychotherapy from Dr. Charlie. He seems better with the proper medicine, but he still has his psychotic moments. But he recognized me today, which is a big improvement!

Sister, have you figured out who the culprit is?" Aaron's cheerful mood disappeared. His eyes were red with anger as he clenched his fists.

Sophia gently shook her head. "I don't know. The murderer hasn't been found yet."

"Don't worry, sister, brother-in-law is also working on it! I'm sure he'll soon find the person behind this. When that happens, I'll avenge our parents!" Aaron's eyes were burning with unparalleled anger and determination.

But Sophia wanted to keep him from the ugly mess. She quickly said, "Aaron, you're still young. You shouldn't get involved in this. I will talk to... I'll talk to your brother-in-law!"

Sophia stuttered awkwardly as she said "brother-in-law."

"No, sister. I'm an adult now. I want to take responsibility. I'm not a kid anymore!"

Sophia felt bad and tried to smile. "Okay, Aaron. If there's any information, I'll tell you."

"Thank you, sister. Where's my brother?" Aaron took a deep breath to calm himself down and asked Sophia curiously.

"Today is the birthday of Colin's grandfather. He was busy taking care of the guests when I came here."

"Ah, I see! Sister, you shouldn't have come tonight, it's already so late! You should stay with brother and come back tomorrow." Aaron brought over a chair, so Sophia could sit down beside the bed.

He started to tell Sophia what happened to him after they were separated.

When the Lo Clan was attacked, Aaron was abducted by several men and sold to human traffickers.

He was caught when he tried to escape. Because of his failed attempt, he was tortured and kept under strict surveillance.

After being taken to several different countries, he was bought by a coal mine owner in Green Cold Country. Since then, he fed on dry bread and moldy pickles while being forced to do hard labor.

Back there, no one treated him like a human being.

A year had passed when one day, he happened to see Patrick Lien while delivering coal.

Because of his sister, Aaron had met Patrick several times. Patrick also recognized Aaron after studying him for a while.

Aaron asked him for help, Patrick walked away without turning back.

After that, Aaron completely lost hope. But weeks later, someone bought him from the coal mine. Later, he found out that the buyer was Dorothy Lien, who had stolen Sophia's ex-boyfriend from her.

After getting a hold of him, Dorothy kept him locked up. She also whipped him from time to time, as if she wanted to take out her anger on him.

Aaron didn't tell Sophia about Dorothy's torture. When an opportunity comes, he would pay her back for everything she did to him.

At 2 o'clock in the morning
