“What do you mean by satisfying me? Aren’t you supposed to give me what I want in the first place?”

Lauren was disgusted by the current attitude of John and Shilla.

She had used the body of “Lauren” and had the memories of the original owner in her mind. She could understand how hard her life was over the years and her desire for family ties.

However, she was not the original “Lauren”. She had long become numb due to the rain of bullets over the years.

“I’m not going to save her.” After saying that, Lauren also left the two of them behind.

Shilla did not expect Lauren to be so disrespectful.

She was so angry that she immediately cursed, “Lauren, stop right there! Your sister is sick and dying, yet you’re willing to watch her die. Do you still have a heart?”

Her attitude just now was indeed just to soothe her. The Xiao family did not want to break off the engagement, and Master Xiao wanted her to join his family. 

All they wanted to do was to squeeze her dry.

Lauren could not be bothered.

Shilla nudged John, “What do you think we should do if this wretched girl refuses to listen to you? I should have strangled her back then. I shouldn’t have spared her life!”

When Shilla thought of the scene from nineteen years ago, she was so angry that her entire body trembled.

She should not have been so soft-hearted and kept this bastard child!

“What’s the use of saying all this now? If she’s not alive, who will save Sue? How will our Lu family have the chance to continue to rise to the next level?” As a business owner, who would think that they had enough money?

With the conditions set by Master Xiao, John did not dare to go against Lauren now.

Lauren returned to the Lu family.

The old lady also knew about Sue’s current situation. Even Roman stood on moral high ground and criticized Lauren.

“Lauren, you can vent your anger if you want. We can do our best to satisfy whatever you want, but you can’t be so cruel. Sue is innocent!”

Innocent? There were many innocent people in the world. If she were to be so kind and donate blood to all, would she be able to save them all?

Moreover, Sue did not like her.

“Then why don’t you just donate your bone marrow to her? The Lu family is so rich, and there are so many people in the country. Is it so difficult to find a suitable candidate?”

At the very least, they could go to the black market.

“You — Lauren, if it weren’t for the fact that you’re suitable, do you think you could come back?” Roman was furious.

Lauren chuckled. This family was cold-blooded to the extreme.

It was one thing for them to abandon their biological daughter, yet another thing that none of the children that they had raised knew how to be polite.

Lauren felt that she had to teach this brat the principles of being a good person.

She reached out and grabbed Roman’s shoulder, and pressed him onto the sofa.

When Roman wanted to get up, Lauren’s applied more pressure. His face was pressed against the glass table, and it was icy cold.

Roman felt extremely humiliated. “Let go of me, Lauren, don’t force me to hit you!”

It was one thing for him to be suppressed by her once in the countryside, but now that she was back, she was still doing it?

He was the young master of the Lu family. If the servants saw, he would be utterly ashamed!

“You little brat, you’re no match for me. If you don’t want to be beaten into a pulp by me, please show me some respect!” Lauren frowned and said unhappily.

“Roman, how many times have I told you? You’re too disobedient. Why did you have to come and provoke your sister?” The old lady heard the commotion and walked over with her walking stick.

She only blamed Roman.

Roman felt very wronged. “Grandma, this isn’t my fault. Why are you still siding with her? Sue’s dying and Lauren isn’t willing to save Sue!”

Lauren did not say anything. She was unwilling, so there was nothing to deny.

Who knew that the old lady was an understanding person. She scolded Roman. “If you were abandoned in the countryside since you were young, would you be willing to be a blood bag when I brought you back?”

“Grandma.” Roman looked at the old lady in shock. He could not believe what he was hearing at that moment.

Lauren, on the other hand, was very gratified. It was good to have a sensible family member.

Grandma continued to say, “If Sue wanted to live, she would have come to beg. Also, with the attitude of your parents, they are the ones at fault, not my Ren. Let’s go, Ren, I’ll take you shopping!”

As she spoke, Grandma pulled Lauren along and walked out.

Lauren was not interested in shopping, but right now, she did not want to see John and the others.

But who would have thought that after going to the mall, she would see an acquaintance!

That person had deep-set eyes, and the smile on his lips was incredibly profound.. This was a look that she had never seen before!
