220 Little Girl

Lewis was also wearing a black wool coat today, his imposing demeanor on a par with that of the handsome man facing Keira.

He got out of the car with a cold expression and went inside, but it seemed he sensed something, and he

turned to look toward Keira.

Seeing the girl waving at him, Lewis’s expression softened.

It was only then he noticed that there was someone sitting across from Keira.

He was about to see who it was when his phone

suddenly rang.

Lewis immediately answered, and a shrill voice came from the other side. “Lewis, where are you? I want to

see you!”

Lewis frowned. “Sorry, I’m having dinner with my wife.”

“Can you come over, please? Lewis, when we were kids, you promised to marry me when we grew up, how can you not come? I’m waiting for you!”

Madeleine started to cry, a sound that only made Lewis feel waves of irritation.

At nine years old, he was sold by Oliver to traffickers

and was detained in a mountain village with a group of

children.

At that time, all the other children were trembling with fear, crying out for their parents, all except for a four-year-old girl who was different.

She became friends with Lewis.

When Lewis asked her name, she replied that her mother hadn’t named her yet… At that time, he was almost shocked. A four-year-old child who didn’t have a name yet? How badly did her family treat her?

No wonder she even felt that the traffickers were

better than her mother…

As time went by, there were fewer and fewer children around, and Lewis knew he couldn’t wait any longer. Aside from his grandmother, no one in the Horton family genuinely wanted him back; he had to save himself.

He asked the only little girl who could move freely to put sleeping pills in the traffickers’ food. At first, the girl didn’t want to do it.

She said, “Brother, the traffickers always let me eat half a bread at every meal. I don’t want to go home. Do you want to go home?”
