Chapter 2 

Softly, Laura called out, “Mommy?” 

There was no response. 

The car’s owner grew flustered as he said, “Your mom ran onto the road on her own! It wasn’t my fault! Where is your dad? Let’s talk this out calmly!” 

Unperturbed by his words, Laura continued to shake Lilian repeatedly. “Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!” 

Laura’s pleas grew more desperate. “Mommy, please, wake up! Please yell at me like you usually do! Mommy, I brought the pasta back! Don’t ignore me, Mommy!” 

Yet, despite her frantic efforts, Lilian remained unresponsive. 

Gradually, a crowd began to gather around, cautiously inquiring, “Kid, where is your dad?” 

“I don’t have a daddy.” In haste, Laura lifted her tear–streaked face, her voice choked with sorrow. “I only have my mommy!” 

Her words hung in the air, leaving everyone momentarily stunned. 

A lady among the onlookers gazed at Laura with a mix of astonishment and sympathy. 

Laura’s sobs intensified. “Please save my mommy. Someone, please save her! She’s ignoring me!” 

After saying those words, she couldn’t understand why, but many people regarded her with pity and even tears in their eyes. 

Someone captured the scene and posted it directly on the internet, where it quickly became a trending topic under the headline: [Breaking news] 

Laura’s innate beauty was undeniable, and the sight of the dainty child weeping for her mom struck a chord in the hearts of those who beheld it. 

In the sea of comments, a lone post stood out. It read: [I know this girl. Her mom has a history of imprisonment and the girl was subjected to daily mistreatment. Such a tragedy! Her name is Lala!] Most of the comments were brimming with heartfelt concern: [Such a poor child, crying so miserably after her mother’s passing! I really want to hold her close!] 

[Lala, stop crying. I’ll buy you all, the candy in the world!] 

Soon, a new trending topic emerged: [BringLalaHome] 

In an office, a woman approached a man with her phone in hand. “Mr. Yale, I’ve found a potential business opportunity.”

The handsome man languidly opened his eyes and took the phone from her. 

As he played the video, the heart–wrenching sobs of a little girl reached his ears, causing his brows to furrow. “I hate kids.” 

The woman persisted, “This child is different. She’s an orphan now. Her mother has just passed away, so she’ll probably end up in an orphanage. If we are able to arrange for her adoption and give her a makeover, she could become an overnight online celebrity. And look at her.” 

She paused the video and zoomed in. “This child is an incredibly rare beauty, a one–in–a–million enchanting little girl. Her commercial value is exceedingly high!” 

On the screen, Laura was holding a packet of dried pasta in one hand, her other hand held by a police officer. Her delicate face bore an expression of shock as she gazed at a pool of blood

She appeared fragile and beautiful. 

Louis Yale cast a casual glance at the screen before his gaze abruptly focused on the girl. 

“This child!” he exclaimed inwardly. 

He zoomed in on the photo until the girl’s features were distinct, and a sudden wave of surprise washed over him, causing goosebumps to crawl all over his skin. “She’s an orphan?” 

The woman’s eyes gleamed with intrigue. “Yes, not just an orphan, but one with a tragic fate. I checked quickly and discovered her mother’s name is Lilian. She was sentenced to prison five years ago for intentional assault. Upon her release on parole, she took her daughter back home. It’s been said that she frequently subjected her daughter to mistreatment. Anyone who seizes this opportunity could make a significant profit. Mr. Yale, I urge you to consider this!” 

Louis was taken aback as his inner voice cried out, “Lilian? Isn’t that my wicked little sister?” 

He swiftly searched the internet on his phone and indeed stumbled upon an uncensored video of the accident. 

The woman sprawled on the ground was his estranged sixth sister, whom he had disowned five 

years ago. 

His blood–related biological sister. 

The malicious woman had once climbed into Antonio Smith’s bed while he was drunk, even going so far as to attempt to harm Louis‘ fifth sister. 

After Lilian became pregnant, Antonio had given her money for an abortion. 

“Did she not proceed with the abortion? Did she still give birth to the child after all?” Louis‘ thoughts raced. 

Louis studied Laura’s facial features intently.

She looked exactly like Antonio as if they were carved out of the same mold. 

He quickly captured a screenshot and sent it to Antonio, accompanied by a message that read: [Do you know this is your daughter? You actually have a daughter! Lilian actually bore you a daughter! Holy crap!] 

Their exchanges were usually succinct, and this marked the first longest message Louis had sent Antonio. 

Before long, Antonio responded to Louis‘ message with a single question mark: [?]
