Chapter 9
“What’s wrong?”
The subordinate looked uneasy. “After Mrs. Bryant left the hospital, she was picked up by a man in a Luxury car.”
“What did you say?”
Marco clenched his fists.
He suddenly had a feeling that things were about to get out of his control.
In a low voice, Marco said, “Find her and the man. Then bring her back!”
Once again, Loraine opened her eyes.
This time, she wasn’t in a ward, alone. She was in a warm and luxurious bedroom.
“Finally, after being away from home for three years, you’re back. Why would you do this for a man? Are you even still a Torres?” Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Recognizing the voice, Loraine turned her head.
A tall, strong-looking man was sitting beside the bed. His face was handsome, and he radiated authority.
At the sight of family, Loraine burst into tears.
“Uncle Rowan, I was wrong. I never should have left home. I shouldn’t have hurt you for an unworthy man. I’m so sorry.”
Rowan Torres, an official in the army, softened when he saw his favorite niece crying. He held her patiently as she sobbed.
“It’s okay. It’s good to have you back!” Rowan said gently.
“Lorrie, your parents died in an accident, and you were lost in the countryside.
We tried so hard to find you. You are the treasure of the Torres family. We won’t Let anyone hurt you!”
Just then, a greying man entered the bedroom. It was Aldo Torres, the owner of Universe Group in Vagow. His presence had the power to frighten an entire city.
“Don’t cry! “Lorrie, you are the heir of Universe Group. Hundreds of millions of properties will be yours in the future. Whoever hurts you, let him pay!”
“Grandpa…”
Loraine buried herself in Aldo’s arms. Choking through her sobs, it was as though she was finally grieving all the injustices she had suffered over the past three years.
Aldo gently patted his granddaughter’s back.
“Lorrie, your parents died young. Rowan is busy with the army, and Wesley is working abroad. You are my only heir. Please don’t do anything silly.”
