Chapter 288
Lea was so weak that she was extremely thin. Her facial features were even more defined, and her eyes seemed to be much larger. Her face was as pale as paper, and even her breathing was a little weak.
Such a person, a weak trapped beast that had been imprisoned until its vitality and sharpness were worn away, could still erupt with such an aura just as he was about to touch her.
How big a crime had he committed against her? He didn’t know. He was going crazy. However, he quickly calmed down. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
“Lea. I’m here to take you away.” He looked at her firmly, affectionately, and gently
“Today, as long as you come with me, I will take care of you for the rest of your life. I will let you live a happy and comfortable life and do the scientific research project you want to do. Lea, I’ve arranged everything.” he said.
As he spoke, he leaned forward and knelt in front of her. He was very close to her. If he moved forward a little more, his chin would touch her forehead.
He reached out and took her hand. “I swear to you on my life!”
When his palm touched the back of her hand, it was cold. He clenched his hand, trying to warm her, but he was afraid of alarming her and did not dare to use too much strength.
From the moment he touched her head until now, Lea was already mentally prepared. She gritted her teeth and endured the discomfort of being touched by him. Her pupals dilated as she sized him up.
It seemed that she was not the only one who had suffered these days.
He had also lost weight. His eyes were red with dark circles. When he frowned, the wrinkles between his eyebrows deepened. He was haggard for
Lea
“Lea.” Milion became more affectionate and sincere. I’ve been making arrangements for the past few days. I’ve wanted to visit you for a long time, but this concerns your life and death. I have to make proper arrangements.
“I’ve already arranged everything. It doesn’t matter even if I have to sacrifice everything I have. It’s not just mine. There’s also Andrews Group’s. So don’t worry. It’s all arranged.”
She yanked her hand away from his and stared at him with fierce eyes. Her tone was cold and resolute. “I said 1 don’t need in
“Lea, do you still want to be so willful Milton said.
“I’m not being willful,” Lea said.
“I heard that you’re not in a good state of mind. The psychiatrists have come to meet you, Milton said.
“Milton, I can’t promise anything else, but in this matter, I’m very clear–headed and rational. She pointed at her chest. “My heart and mind, as usual, had not changed at all. Don’t waste your energy. You’re embarrassing yourself.”
She hated him. She wanted revenge on him. Anything that caused him pain, she would have wanted to do. But now she had no interest in even trampling on him.
Why?” The words grated out of his chest, gut–wrenching,
She tilted her head and asked, “Then why are you doing this?”
After being rejected time and time again, he had fallen deeper and deeper. Now, for her, not only had he gambled everything, but he had also taken out Andrews Group.
Milton was stunned. He seemed to have gotten an answer. He understood, but he did not seem to understand.
*Lea…” Milton still wanted to say something.
“Am I not making myself clear enough, or are you too stupid! Or do you want me to use extreme methods to send you off? Lea said.
Milion closed his eyes weakly. His breathing was trembling as he swallowed his heartache and disappointment.

When he opened his eyes again, they were filled with his unique dignity and sharpness. However, there was a strong sadness. “Lea, even if you die. you won’t take the path I gave you?” he asked.
“Yes!” Lea answered.
“What if it’s Alfred?” he asked.
“If so, of course, I’m willing” Her tone was calm, firm, and unhesitating.
His pupils dilated as anger spewed out. “For the past 30 days, I’ve done so much for you. I’ve used everything I have and even used Andrews Group’s power, connections, and wealth to fight for a way out for you.
“Do you know how much effort I put in? That’s all my hard work. You can’t imagine it. I risked everything for you. I didn’t even care if I lived or died.
“And what about Alfred? What did he do! Did he ever come to see you? He didn’t. He didn’t do anything” He had been inquiring and monitoring the movements of Alfred. He continued, “Even he, the son of the Andrews family, can’t do anything about this. He can’t do anything. He abandoned you, Lea. He abandoned you! Do you still need to choose between him and me?”
Lea looked at the hysterical him. She did not expect him to do this for her.
However, her expression remained unchanged. She said. “My choice will always be Alfred. Forever”
Her eyes turned and her expression was cold. “Even if you die in front of me now, my heart won’t move for you.”
Milton felt his heart shatter. He took a deep breath. Even his breathing was trembling. He was a little numb, and even his face was a little wooden.
He was silent for a moment and then said. “My promise stands. Until the end. As long as you agree, I will take you with me.”
After saying that, he looked at her deeply before turning to leave. However, the deep affection in his eyes had been erased by her at this moment.
on the twenty–fifth day of Lea’s imprisonment,
Christian tried his best in Iverton for nearly a month before he could see Lea again.
As soon as he entered the detention center, he saw Lea curled up in the corner. He wailed and knelt in front of her.
“Lea, is this what you meant when you said you were fine? Look at you now! I…” He whimpered as tears streamed down his face.
She no longer looked like a human at all. She was like a domesticated beast.
“Grandpa, I’m fine.” She grinned at him
“What did you do? Are you Christian grabbed her arms and looked at her in surprise. He felt that he might have trusted her wrongly at first. “I’m sorry, I’ve disappointed you” With that, she lowered her eyes, her face full of guilt. She didn’t dare to face him again.
Christian collapsed to the ground.
“I get you out. I’ll get you out… It’s all my fault I was wrong. I didn’t teach you well… he muttered.
When Christian left the detention room, the police officers guarding outside looked at him in disbelief. His hair seemed to have turned much whiter all of a sudden. He was hunched, and he could not straighten his back. His footsteps were unsteady as he staggered.
In the following days, there were rumors in Iverton that Vaporleon City’s Christian was looking for connections to save Lea
However, no one thought highly of him, and no one dared to help him because Lea had touched the bottom line of the law. Lea could only face the death penalty.
