Meanwhile, the most handsome man Lara had met was Mr. Hughes back in Nason Village.
In the beginning, she had thought he was Samantha's boyfriend. Later, Willow had told her that Mr. Hughes was her boss and not Samantha's boyfriend.
At some point, Mr. Hughes had actually built a villa for their family.
Lara thought it was unusual. She suspected Mr. Hughes' was Willow's boyfriend.
Willow stayed out the entire night and only returned in the morning. She even cried, saying how she had her heart broken and did not deserve the man she was seeing.
Lara put two and two together.
Wasn't Willow's boyfriend her boss, Mr. Hughes?
The man Willow claimed to have looked down on her was probably him too!
If he looked down on her daughter, why did he send her home today?
Did he want to have fun with her without marrying her?
These men from rich families were all womanizers!
What kind of person did he think her daughter was?
Lara wasn't against them dating officially, but if he only wanted to have fun with her, Lara refused to have any of that.
She had never been afraid of anyone. Whoever dared to hurt her daughter would have to go through her!
Lara held both children's hands and quickly walked home with them.
She wanted to meet Mr. Hughes. This time, she would not let him go!
"Grandma, I'm tired. I cannot keep up." Hailey's legs were exhausted. Lara dragged her along.
"Hurry up, child. Don't slow me down. I have to find out who your father is!" Lara was impatient. She hurried Hailey and Lilith along by holding their hand and walking at a fast pace.
She was worried Mr. Hughes might be gone if she was late.
That man made her daughter cry the night before. She needed to teach him a lesson.
