Chapter 916 A Huge Humiliation
Subconsciously backing a few steps, Lucia thought hangers-on of Marlena were chasing after them. However, the next second, she saw a furry head pop out. "Ryan!" Lucia shouted with great joy and then pulled him out of the tunnel as well as Poch when she confirmed it was Ryan. Ryan gave a big and bright smile to Lucia and held a box in his hand tight when he could steady himself. Lucia didn't expect that Ryan would change his mind at the very end, and was so pleased to see it. However, they didn't dare to waste more time here but left at once.
They were in a forest which should be in the suburbs. Luckily, they stopped a car at the side of the street and went to the place of Mrs. Robert. Mrs. Robert was so surprised to see them. She let them in and called a veterinarian to treat Poch. On the other side, Marlena was suffering the pain of the wound on her leg which had already been bandaged. Looking gloomy, she endured the pain and walked in the tunnel with a flashlight. She didn't expect Ryan would have this ace up his sleeve, and there was such a secret tunnel in the Smith Manor which was heavily fortified. It was a huge humiliation for her. "None of their families is good." Marlena cursed.
Marlena finally came out from the exit with her hangers-on after a long walk, but no trace of Lucia and the others could be seen. "Damn it." Marlena kept cursing and looked so brutal. "Go find them. Kill Lucia directly and bring August back when you see them." Marlena's hangers-on behind her dispersed when they got the command.
On the other side, Lucia changed her clothes after a hot bath. And then she lay Ryan in the bathtub with Daryl and would give him a bath. Ryan was resistant to strangers. It was hard for August to get close to him in the very beginning, not to mention Lucia and Daryl. Ryan was being so resistant to Lucia at first. If
Lucia hadn’t used the potion to remove her disguise and showed Ryan the wound he bit on her body, Ryan wouldn't have recognized her. So, Ryan was behaving well when Lucia and Daryl were giving him a bath.
After the bath, Lucia dried Ryan’s hair and finally got to see his real appearance. Ryan had been messy earlier, but now he was clean and looked so cute. He was so lively with his eyes rolling. Mrs. Robert was being stunned when she knew Ryan was saved by Lucia and August from the Smith Manor. She frowned and seemed to come up with something. After a few minutes, she said slowly after a sigh, "I think I’ve known the background of Ryan."
Mrs. Robert had heard some family stories when she married to the Smith family. The last master of the Smith family was such a playboy who had several mistresses, and he had a lot of natural children. Terry and Reggio were so afraid that those children would come back to the Smith family and fight over the right of inheritance with them, so they killed them all. However, there would always be ones who had survived, and Allen was one of them.
