No Remarriage for us Stay Away by Livia Storm

Chapter 277 A Deep Bond Indeed.

No wonder there wasn't a trace of information about that year on the internet.

No wonder Susanna had the audacity to push her earlier. Susanna knew she needed her help and wouldn't dare to call the police.

At that moment, Lenora's previously lucid thoughts suddenly turned into a tangled mess, much like a ball of entwined yarn that she simply couldn't unravel.

Before she had entered, she had already planned out her persuasive speech to the victim.

The news that Susanna was the victim caught her off guard, throwing her well-prepared plans into complete disarray.

Suddenly, she didn't know what to do.

Would Susanna step forward to testify?

Lenora felt uncertain.

She took a deep breath, limping her way to the edge of the couch to sit down. "Let's not dwell on our past grievances for now. You know why I asked to see you. I hope you can testify against Richie. He's the kidnapper who caused your misfortune. Don't you want him and Susanna let out a soft chuckle, pointing to her own face "Why wouldn't I? I recall just a few days ago, you slapped me right here!"

Lenora closed her eyes for a moment, took a deep breath, and said, "Then I apologize to you."

"What's the point of an apology?" Susanna raised an eyebrow and said, "Unless, you let me hit you back!"

Seeing Lenora's silence, Susanna started laughing. "Lenora, you can stand up for Mr. Fuller, who isn't even related to you by blood, but you can't take a slap for your own father?"

"Okay, hit me then."

Taking a deep breath, Lenora slowly rose to her feet. With a limp in her step, she made her way to Susanna

A triumphant smile tugged at the corners of Susanna's lips. Rising to her feet, she forcefully slapped Lenora's face.

The force was so great that Lenora lost her footing. Instinctively, she tried to steady herself with her right foot, but a piercing pain shot through her ankle causing her entire body to shudder. Overwhelmed by the pain, she couldn't hold herself up and fell to the ground. The left side of her face throbbed with a burning pain, gradually swelling up to a noticeable redness. The heat spread from half of her face to the root of her car

A cold sweat drenched Lenora's back, soaking even the roots of her hair.
