Kenneth watched his parents disappear into the distance, a sense of despair filling his eyes.
“Willow didn’t mean it, I swear!”
He slumped down on the cold iron chair, his hands hanging limply by his sides, his gaze clouded with confusion. He didn’t even understand how he had gotten himself into this mess.
He had always tried to maintain the peace, always trying to quell Lauren’s disdain for Willow. But his efforts had backfired, not only intensifying Lauren’s dislike but also drawing the ire of that maniac Felix.
He was supposed to be the future leader of Gray Corporation, yet here he was, locked up in a detention
center.
Kenneth’s frown deepened. If only Lauren hadn’t caused a scene at Kate’s birthday party, he and Willow wouldn’t be in this predicament
Lauren, who had spent five years in prison, had changed; she was no longer the gentle person she once was.
However, Kenneth couldn’t possibly imagine just how ashamed he would feel about his current thoughts and words when Elaine returned home and the truth came out.
His once thoughtless protection of Willow would turn into sharp knives, each one stabbing deeply into his heart, making it bleed in unbearable pain.
A crushing guilt would shadow him for the rest of his life, becoming shackles he could never shed.
Even if he knelt and begged for mercy in front of Lauren, it wouldn’t earn him even a glance from her.
The thought of being ignored and despised was more painful than death itself.
But at this moment, he stubbornly clung to his perspective, completely unaware of any wrongdoing on his
part.
At the Brooker’s villa, everyone’s eyes were filled with undisguised care and affection for Lauren.
A minor burn had everyone deeply concerned, pulling at the heartstrings of everyone present.
Kate held Lauren’s scorched wrist, her eyes full of worry and care, and urged, “Felix, take Laurie to the hospital right now.”
Being cared for in such a way was so foreign yet warm for Lauren. It made her crave this affection, and she even harbored a wish deep down to spend the rest of her life with Kate and Felix.
But reality poured cold water on her fantasies.
She knew Kate wanted to match her with Felix, but her body was riddled with injuries, like a crumbling building ready to collapse at any moment.
How could I, out of selfish desire, hold back Felix’s promising life, entangling him with someone so physically damaged?
Lauren spoke with serious sincerity, “Madam Kate, I’ve already applied medication; it’s really not serious. Please don’t worry about me anymore.”
