Chapter 386 A Savior Unexpected
But back then, all it took was a few words from Willow to sway Kenneth. He would believe her without hesitation, and immediately begin doubting Lauren. He never believed a single word she said.
Someone like that? She couldn’t wait to stay as far away from him as possible. There was no way she could ever be friends with him again.
“Let’s go.”
Surrounded by her loved ones, Lauren slowly walked out of the hospital. She thought she’d be heading home right away.
What she didn’t expect was the crowd of reporters waiting outside. The moment they saw Lauren, their eyes lit up. They surged forward, desperate to be the first to interview her.
But before they could get any closer, the bodyguards stepped in and blocked their path.
Victor winked at her. “I figured something like this might happen, so I hired security in advance.”
~Thank you, Victor.”
“I’m your brother. It’s my job to protect you. Why are you being polite with me?”
Lauren was moved again.
Her biological brother, Elliot, had never protected her. He had only ever brought her harm.
But now, she had someone who called her sister and actually meant it.
Lauren got in the car with her family.
“Mom, Dad, are we heading back to Balewood now?” she asked.
Madam Shirley held Lauren’s hand and said, “Not yet. First, we need to thank the person who saved your life.”
“The person who saved me?” Lauren was surprised.
Wasn’t it Alice who saved her?
She had come to Hoverdale fully aware that David, Sharon, and Willow wouldn’t let her go easily.
Given her current status, anyone who dared harm her would face serious consequences.
In their past life, they had framed her and thrown her in prison. This time, she planned to turn the tables–and make them
suffer the same fate.
That’s why she went to find Alice. She had hoped that if she were kidnapped, Alice would immediately call the police and get her rescued.
“Wasn’t it Alice who called the police?” she asked.
Madam Shirley shook her head “According to the police, it was a young man who called it in after you were kidnapped. Thank goodness he did it in time–otherwise, you really might’ve had your organs harvested”
Just thinking about it made Madam Shirley tremble “Laurie, you nearly scared me to death, you know that?”
She went on. “I know you came to Hoverdale because you wanted to meet your biological mother. But you’re only seventeen. How could I possibly feel okay letting you travel so far alone? You’re never doing this again, do you hear me?”
“I’m sorry. Mom. It won’t happen agam” Lauren said sincerely

Finished
Lauren immediately thought of what happened last night–when she’d run into Jeffrey. Could it have been Jeffrey who called the police?
When they arrived at the Gordon family home, her suspicions were confirmed. It really had been Jeffrey.
She had actually pinned her hopes on Alice. And once again, Alice couldn’t even do that one thing right.
If it hadn’t been for Jeffrey, she’d probably be lying on some operating table right now.
The Gordon family gave the Mavis family a warm welcome.
The moment Jeffrey saw Lauren, he was so excited he nearly jumped out of his skin.
