Chapter 254 Brenda of Chinatown

Robin noticed a troubling look on Marrisa's face.

Brenda was clearly struggling.

Before he could inquire further, a girl in white pajamas came down the stairs.

"Mom, you have a visitor this early?"

Robin looked up to see a girl with striking red curls and a cigarette dangling from her fingers.

Now he understood Marrisa's sigh when she had mentioned Brenda.

This girl was indeed Brenda, but she appeared to be in a rough state.

In his memories, Brenda had been sweet, obedient, and quiet.

However, the girl before him exhibited a clear rebelliousness.

Brenda plopped down next to Marrisa, yawning widely.

As she reached for her lighter to ignite her cigarette, Robin swiftly snatched it away.

"Who the heck are you? Why did you take my lighter?" Brenda froze, rubbing her sleepy eyes as she focused on Robin.

"Robin?" She jumped up in surprise, pointing at him. "I-it' you, Robin!"

Marrisa sighed. "You still remember Robin? Just look at how you're dressed now!"

Brenda's grogginess vanished in an instant.

She tucked the cigarette behind her ear and settled in beside Robin, resting her chin on her hands while gazing at his handsome face for a long moment. "Robin, where have you been all these seven years?

"You've grown so tall and handsome, even better looking than those movie stars!

"You jerk! You just disappeared back then, leaving Mom and me searching for you for years...

Brenda rambled on, tears glistening in her eyes.

Robin tousled her messy red curls. "What happened to your hair? It looks awful.

"And this!" He took the cigarette from behind her ear.
