Chapter 107 Are You Okay
"Lady, are you okay?"
Suddenly, a pair of hands helped her up. When Lilian raised her head, she saw a man like a college student. He wore a white down jacket, had headphones around his neck, and carried a backpack.
She wiped her tears off and shook her head.
"Since you're fine, you should go home."
Then, he grinned at her, turned around, and left.
When Lilian stood there, the cold wind blew by. And she felt unprecedently cold. Then, she sat on the stone step, took out her phone, and saw another message from Courtney asking, "What happened?"
Lilian stared at the message but did not know how to reply. So, she sat there in a daze.
Time passed by. After sitting for two hours, she suddenly stood up and took a taxi to the garbage dump where Fabiana used to live. After she arrived at the small shed, there was no one inside. They had taken everything away last time, so only a bed was left there.
Lilian walked over, sat on the bed, stroked the dirty sheets. Linkland was so big that she did not know where to find Paul. She took out her phone, blankly flipped through the address book, and suddenly saw Fabiana's name. She had almost forgotten she had bought a phone for Fabiana last time.
Lilian quickly dialed the number. The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered. She did not give up but continued to call her. However, the phone was turned down. She lowered her hand andMaterial © of NôvelDrama.Org.
sat in the shed at a loss, worrying about Fabiana.
Fabiana had not refused to answer her call, but her phone was in the water. Paul had tried to snatch it just now, so she had thrown it into the river outside the window in desperation.
Paul was so angry that he slammed on the brakes. Then, he jumped out of the car, ran to the guardrail, and looked down. The river was rushing, so he did not see the cheap phone.
He returned to the car, pointed at Fabiana, and angrily cursed, "You old woman, do you think I can't get the money if you throw the phone away? I know where the dummy lives. I will go to meet her!"
Fabiana was so angry that she trembled when saying, "If you dare to bother her, I will kill myself in front of you!"
"What benefits did she give you? Why are you protecting her like this? Can't you try to take care of your grandson?"
Fabiana bitterly smiled, "I'm old! I can't even take care of myself! How can you expect me to take care of your son? I will die soon, but you still want to use me to make money! Paul, you will suffer from divine retribution!"
Paul angrily laughed, "Even if I suffer retribution, you won't see it. Be obedient! The dummy cares about you very much. I am sure she will give me the money. You are useful. After all, you have worked as a dog for the Landau family for many years."
Paul had been spending the money she had earned but despised her because she was a servant, thinking she made others look down upon him.
When Fabiana closed her eyes, blue veins popped out on the back of her withered hands. She no longer wanted to talk to him.
...
Lilian sat in the small shed until dark. Then, she got up and returned to the villa. Standing at the dark door and looking at the emptiness, she suddenly lost the courage to go in.
Many things flashed through her mind. How had Paul found this place? He had ignored Fabiana for many years. Why did he know her address?
When Lilian thought of some possibilities, her fingers trembled slightly.
Suddenly, she heard a car come from behind. Then, its headlight cast her long shadow into the villa. She slowly turned around and looked at the man leaving the vehicle. The dazzling light made her barely able to open her eyes.
After Francis walked up to her, their eyes met. When she blankly stared at his expressionless face, he asked, "Why are you standing here?"
