Selina was really afraid that things would end badly once Cecilia found out.
She could only let go of her pride and pleaded with Saoirse, "I'm begging you, please, Saoirse. I know you hate me, but you should understand my situation. I just don't want my mom to worry. My mother is in poor health," She bit her lip, "I'm really afraid that something will happen to her if she finds out."
In fact, after what had happened between Tobias and Natalie, Cecilia's health had deteriorated a lot. That matter had caused a huge shock to Cecilia back then.
Although everything ended up fine, yet Cecilia's health was never the same as before.
Cecilia often felt dizzy nowadays.
A hint of hesitation appeared in Saoirse's eyes.
She had parents as well, and she could understand how it felt to be a daughter.
But it lasted for just a moment, and the hesitation in Saoirse immediately faded again.
The audio recording that Caroline got her to listen to rang in her ear once again.
Saoirse's eyes turned cold again, "Sorry, what happens to your mother has nothing to do with me.
Selina froze.
She did not look at Saoirse again and just turned away.
Selina then gave Tobias a call.
Natalie told her that Cecilia was coming with Tobias.
Selina wanted to ask Tobias to stop Cecilia from coming, yet her calls couldn't get through.
In the end, Selina started becoming anxious.
She had no other choice but to call Lothar.
She knew Lothar had a lot of ideas, and she wanted to see if Lothar could come up with a way. Lothar agreed immediately.
"Selina, don't worry. I'll be right there," Lothar said, then quickly hung up the call.
He was having his breakfast with Yesseca at home at that moment, but he put his bread down after only taking a bite of it.
"Yesseca, go ahead and eat. I have something else to do," Lothar said.
Yesseca swallowed the food in her mouth, "What is it, Lothar?"
"Something came up. You should continue eating," Lothar said as he walked out the door.
When he walked to the corridor on the second floor, suddenly, a few men in black went over towards him.
Each man held an iron rod in their hands.
They had obviously come to kill.
"Hey, do you know where Lothar Cowell's house is?" The leader suddenly asked him.
Lothar was dumbstruck.
Were they going after him?
Seeing the iron rod in the bodyguard's hand, Lothar's heart sank.
Reid was the most likely the one who had sent his people to come after him. He could've just said he didn't know and escaped, but Yesseca was home, and he wouldn't want to risk getting Yesseca into trouble.
"I don't know," Lothar said while walking down.
When he reached to face the man, he suddenly pushed hard and tilted his body, then ran down from their side.
Lothar pushed two of the men down the stairs.
"That's Lothar, chase him!"
Lothar ran forward with all his might. He was so fast that he felt as if he was flying.
But the men were better than him.
They kept chasing after him and then caught Lothar in no time.
"Come on, beat him up," With just one order, numerous fists started landing on Lothar.
Lothar was curled up on the floor, and he was hugging his head tightly.
He didn't know how long had passed before it finally ended. The men hit Lothar so bad that he was injured all over, yet they had avoided the vital part, his head.
After the men left, only then did Lothar struggle to get up.
