Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 694

Hanging up the phone, Lady Lilian complained.

In his heart, there was only that bastard, Owen.

At this moment, Luna was still crying.

Lady Lilian glanced at her. "Don't cry. Tomorrow, Mom will take you to school. Let's see who dares to bully you."

"Stop causing trouble. Just listen to Dad and don't make a mess," Richard said.

Lady Lilian gritted her teeth.

Seeing her stay silent, Richard assumed she had listened and went into his study alone.

He managed a lot of the group's affairs and had work to handle.

The next morning, Lady Lilian took Luna to Aethelgard University. At this time, Richard hadn't even woken up yet.

"Mom, Mira is quite skilled in martial arts. She almost fought the instructor to a draw."

"Find some bodyguards. Have Slade Cutter tag along."

She instructed the butler.

"Madam, will ten men be enough?"

The butler bowed slightly to ask for instructions.

"It's enough."

Nine professional bodyguards, plus one top-tier expert. If they couldn't handle a little girl, it would be a joke.

Ever since Mira started college, to accommodate her roommates' habits, she had changed her bedtime from nine to ten, and her wake-up time from five to six.

After waking up in the morning, she went out for an hour and a half of Taekwondo practice as usual. At seven-thirty, she returned to the dorm, just as the others were waking up.

She took a quick shower, changed her clothes, grabbed her backpack, and went to grab breakfast with Leah Monroe and Elara Finn before heading straight to the classroom.

As the three of them walked through the small grove, Elara pointed at the main road outside. "Look, three Onyx Executive Sedans. Which wealthy family is dropping off their kid?"

"But they didn't need to bring three cars and drive them right onto the campus," Leah remarked, confused.

The three of them kept their eyes on the vehicles as they walked at a leisurely pace.

Leah's voice trembled.

"Can I outrun them?

Don't be afraid. Here, take this, stand far back, and record them for me."

Mira handed a Micro-HD Recorder to Leah.

Although she had one on her, it might get damaged in a fight.

In reality, there was a security camera where they parked, but Lady Lilian, carrying the arrogance of her wealth, simply didn't care.

If the camera became a problem, it would conveniently break down—a common occurrence.

With capital pulling the strings, many things were easily swept under the rug.

"Should we call someone for help?"

Elara asked nervously.
