Chapter 72 The Encounter with Kenneth Finished .
These five years , what kind of life had I lived in prison ? Every day was filled with endless darkness and despair , and the one responsible for it all was Lucas , After everything he had done to me , didnt he deserve to be beaten ? Lucass eyes gradually turned red .
He tried to find a trace of the warmth they once shared in Laurens icy gaze .
but all he could see was a deep abyss of hatred .
Willow stood aside , secretly pleased .
She couldnt wait for the relationship between Lucas and Lauren to fall apart completely .
But on her face , she wore a worried expression , tugging on Lucass sleeve and softly saying , Luca , dont be sad .
Laurie might be upset right now .
After comforting Lucas , she turned her tear filled eyes to Lauren , her voice trembling with aggrieve .
Laurie , dont blame Lucas .
Blame me .
Its all my fault .
deserve it if you hit me .
Her voice was choked with tears , sounding pitiful enough to fool anyone who didnt know the truth .
Lauren sneered , Save your fake concern , Willow .
I remember everything youve done .
For now , I wouldnt touch her .
But once I had settled Marilyn and Mia and made sure they were safe , I would drag Willow die with me .
After all , my body was already broken .
I didnt have many years left .
Taking Willow to hell with her before I died was a fair trade Laurens face was filled with disgust as she addressed Lucas and Willow .
Seeing you two makes me feel .
disgusted .
From now on , please dont come here under the pretense of visiting me .
Its really disgusting Laurie , how can you say that ? Willow wanted to continue her act , but when she saw Lauren raise her hand again , the words died in her throat .
She could only shut her mouth , although her eyes flashed with resentment .
Lucas looked at Lauren and wanted to approach her to say a few more words .
But he didnt dare .
He could only watch her with eyes full of pain and helplessness .
After a long hesitation , he finally spoke in a hoarse voice .
Laurie , you are not in a good condition today .
Ill come back in a few days .
With that , he took Willows hand and left .
When they were gone , Lauren finally breathed a sigh of relief .
What a disaster .
My previously decent mood was now completely ruined .
All Lauren wanted to do was leave the hospital and get some fresh air .
But as soon as she looked up , she met a pair of deep , icy black eyes .
1/3 21:44 Thu , Mar 27 Chapter 72 The Encounter with Kenneth Finished The mans gaze was like that of an eagle swooping dow on its prey , filled with overwhelming pressure .
He came closer , step by step .
Laurens pupils narrowed sharply , and a strong sense of unease rose within her .
Kenneth ! Why was he here ? What did he want ? As Kenneth closed the distance between them , Lauren breathing became rapid and uneven .
Kenneth was the last person I wanted to face , and someone Ibsolutely could not afford to offend .
Because he was ruthless , so ruthless that my fear of him was etched into my bones .
Just the sight of him made my body shake uncontrollably .
She wanted to run , but her legs felt heavy as lead .
Kenneth stopped in front of Lauren and looked down at her with a look full of danger .
Seeing Kenneth , Laurens mind was flooded with memories of being beaten in prison .
The women who had tortured her , their faces twisted with malice , grabbed her hair and forced her to look up .
Dont blame us .
A person from the Gray family promised that if we take good care of you , hell find a way to reduce our sentences .
They hadnt said who the person from the Gray family was , but I knew it had to be Kenneth .
Only he had the power to extend his influence into the prison During those three years of high school competitions , I had mistakenly thought that Kenneth was a gentle , refined man from a wealthy family .
But in prison only I realized that gentleness was just a facade Ruthlessness and vengefulness were his true nature .
It was like waking from a dream .
She stumbled backwards as if fleeing from a ferocious beast , the fear in her eyes almost palpable ..
Her desperate attempt to escape irritated Kenneth , who narrowed his eyes in displeasure .
As Lauren retreated , Kenneth closed the distance between them ..
Laurens heart was pounding with fear , and her mind was spinning .
As she took another step back , she lost her balance and began to fall .
Kenneth reacted quickly , reaching out to wrap an arm around her waist and pull her tightly into his embrace His hand on her waist instinctively tightened , and he frowned when he felt how thin she was .
Why was she so skinny ? Laurens heart skipped a beat at Kenneths sudden move .
She instinctively tried to fight back , but her body felt like it was bound by invisible ropes , unable to move 2/3
