Lauren was such a good person; she didn’t deserve to be mistreated by scum. Mia was determined to take Lauren away from that toxic environment.
At the Brooker’s villa, when Lauren opened her eyes, she was a bit disoriented. She remembered waiting in the living room for Felix to return last night, and because she was so tired, she decided to take a quick nap. How had it suddenly become morning?
Looking around, she found herself in her own room and knew Felix must have carried her there.
She couldn’t help but blush a little. Since arriving at the Brooker’s villa, it seemed she was always causing trouble for him.
Lauren felt a bit guilty; she really wanted to do something for Felix, but he lacked nothing.
After some thought, she decided to make breakfast for Felix.
After washing up, she went downstairs and before entering the kitchen, opened the villa’s door to prevent missing Josh and Gael ringing the doorbell if they came by.
At that moment, Mia had just arrived at the Brooker’s villa. She looked up at the palace–like mansion. The milky white marble facade gleamed under the sunlight, radiating a soft yet noble sheen, each corner adorned with exquisite carvings that displayed unmatched luxury.
Tall pillars supported the imposing porch, decorated with delicate wrought–iron carvings.
The front yard of the villa was filled with various blooming flowers, their rich fragrance wafting through the air, each petal seeming like a meticulously crafted work of art.
Mia admired the luxurious setting and wondered, How well is Laurie actually living here?
She took a deep breath, approached the door, and rang the bell.
However, no one came to answer for quite some time. Mia frowned, puzzled. Is everyone still asleep?
Hesitantly, she pushed the door and, to her surprise, it opened.
With a moment of hesitation, she walked in and headed towards the living room, immediately smelling the rich scent of food.
As Mia approached the kitchen, she saw Lauren busy at work.
Her eyes moistened slightly as she softly called out, “Laurie.”
Her voice echoed quietly in the serene kitchen but sank like a stone, stirring no response.
Mia paused, confusion rippling through her. Didn’t Laurie hear me?
Her brows furrowed, she spoke again, emphasizing her tone with a mix of affection and urgency, “Laurie?”
But the only reply was the bubbling sound of porridge in the pot. Lauren continued stirring the thick porridge, which had been simmering for over an hour, filling the kitchen with the aroma of cooked rice and
steam.

Chapter 209 Silent Cries in a Loud Kitchen
Her voice was almost a shout now, echoing in the kitchen, but Lauren seemed isolated in motors with with no reaction.
Mia’s pupils narrowed, a chill running from her feet to her head. She finally realized Lauren conrit Bear her.
When she had seen Lauren at the hospital last time, she was fine. How could the have lost her hearing so quickly?
Mia clenched her fists tightly, her nails almost digging into her palms. The Bennetts, Kenneth, and Lucas, sehat have those scumbags done to her!
Mia’s eyes brimmed with unprecedented fury, as if ready to exact vengeance on those who had harmed
