“Young Master, Master is waiting for you in the side hall,” said a middle-aged man in a black suit as he walked up to Roman.
“Got it.”
Roman nodded and turned to Lauren. “Follow me.”
His tone was not as arrogant as before.
Now that he had returned to the Lu family, he would not rashly make a move on Lauren without finding an opportune time to avoid making a fool of himself!
However, Lauren frowned.
The Lu family wanted her back for blood transfusions, but yet they did not welcome her.
And since she was someone useful, why would anyone want her to die? Who wanted her dead?
She felt that she was mired in a fog of uncertainty.
“Since you are in the Lu family now, there are instructions that you need to know clearly and abide by them strictly.”
Entering the side hall, Lauren saw a man in a Chinese tunic suit standing there with his hands behind his back. His fierce eyes directly swept over her.
Lauren found it absurd. She had to follow instructions even in her own home?
She was not here to be a servant!
“Before grandmother died, she asked me to look for you guys. I was about to do so when I was kidnapped and nearly died. Dad, I almost couldn’t see you all, ” Lauren took a deep breath and said hoarsely.
At the same time, she was observing John’s reaction.
When John heard her words, a trace of shock flashed across his eyes momentarily.
He looked at Roman with a serious expression and said, “Go and check it out,” then turning to Lauren, “The servants will bring your meals here in future. This is your area of activity. Don’t roam around. Sue’s health is not good, and your blood type is the same as hers…”
“Why do you need me back here? Dad, you’re so rich. Isn’t it very easy to find someone to give Sue a blood transfusion?” Lauren said, feeling aggrieved.
She wasn’t willing to accept such a miserable arrangement.
Roman was watching their exchange from the side.
John was the head of the family, and he was swift and decisive in the company.
But now Lauren was openly opposing him, and in front of Roman too, no less.
John instantly flew into a rage. He pointed at Lauren’s nose and scolded, “B*stard, how dare you talk to me like that? You’re too used to living in the countryside and have absolutely no upbringing at all. You better…”
Go kneel in the ancestral hall!
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Lauren.
She tossed her words coldly at him, “You’ve dumped me on grandmother since I was born. You did not teach me anything then. So, you’re not fit to teach me anything now.”
John choked on his words. He was so mad that he raised his hand to hit Lauren.
She nimbly took a step back and quickly dodged.
“I can transfuse my blood to Sue. But whatever she has, I need to have too. And I’m not living in a side hall. At my age, I need to go to school too.” Lauren took advantage of the situation to make several requests.
She had never felt inferior to others.
To return home to live in a side hall?
It was unbefitting for the young miss of the Lu family or a top-notch assassin.
She could not stay at home all the time, or else she could not move around freely.
As a student, some of her behaviors would not be suspected.
“You…”
John did not expect Lauren to make so many demands.
It seemed that she came back to find faults with them.
“We will give you everything that Sue has, we will make it up to you. Of course, you will go to school, but you must stay in the side hall. Your mum’s and your astrological signs are not compatible. If she sees you, I’m afraid that she will…”
John’s expression turned very ugly.
If it were not for Sue, he would not have agreed to Lauren’s demands.
Astrological signs? Hearing this, Lauren laughed.
“Dad, don’t you think it’s funny to say that? Sue and I are twins, won’t our astrological signs be the same?”
All the more, she wanted to meet “Lauren’s” biological mother.
“If you don’t agree, then I’ll go back to the countryside. Anyway, from the moment you abandoned me, I have no obligation to support you, let alone transfuse blood to my sister!”
After saying this, she turned around to leave.
However, the butler blocked her way, along with a few other servants.
Were they planning to forcibly tie her up?
However, even if ten more people came, they still would not be her match. She also did not want to reveal her skills in front of John.
“I’ve made arrangements before I came. If my friend doesn’t hear from me today, she will call the police. Dad, what will the public think of the news of a biological father forcibly tying up the daughter he had abandoned for nineteen years, to give another precious daughter a blood transfusion?”
Of course, she did not make such an arrangement. Her only good friend in the countryside had followed her parents to another city when she was in junior high school.
She was just playing a psychological game with John!
