Loved You Once But He's My Forever

Chapter 553 Young Girl

The violent yet beautiful woman scared Anna so much that she fell back onto the floor with a thud. What a terrifying woman!

Panicked, she scrambled away, crawling and stumbling, afraid that the fierce woman might kick her next.

In her frantic escape, she crashed straight into Taylor's arms. The moment she saw him, she instinctively trembled.

She no longer trusted him as unconditionally as before-now, there was fear mixed in.

"Stop running around. There are a lot of snakes outside. Didn't you hurt your knee?"

Hearing the scolding laced with concern, Anna suddenly felt like crying.

"Taylor!"

She threw herself into his embrace. "I knew you wouldn't abandon me, right?"

Taylor let out a soft sigh. "Just rest properly. Don't come out again, or even I won't be able to protect you. My family is all lunatics."

"Who is that beautiful woman?"

"She's my mom."

Taylor crouched down. "Come on."

Anna obediently climbed onto his back, letting him carry her back to the room.

Taylor carefully placed her on the bed. Seeing the wound on her knee, his eyes full of distress. "Does it hurt?"

"Yes. Taylor, blow on it."

He bent down and gently blew on her wound. "Are you not mad at me?"

"I know you had no choice. If you really wanted to hurt me, I'd already be dead.

Why would you bother treating my wounds? And why would you take me to see Chloe before leaving?"

Taylor was slightly surprised. He hadn't expected such a young girl to be so clear- headed, able to see through everything.

"That's right. You probably won't get the chance to see her again."

Anna pouted. "Why?"

"The people you knelt before today were our family. They all died because of the Sanders. That's why we seek revenge."
