Chapter 1442

On the weekend, Lisa had no plans to return home, but Gracie called and insisted she come back.

When she arrived, her parents weren't in the living room, and Marian was out, so she went straight upstairs.

Just as she reached the top, she noticed Ben's bedroom door was open, and voices could be heard from inside.

Pausing for a moment, Lisa walked towards the room. Just as she reached the doorway, she saw a man she didn't recognize.

He appeared to be in his fifties at most, dressed in a neatly pressed suit that seemed to hail from the era of the Roaring Twenties. He was conversing with Thomas.

Lisa wondered who the man could be, her gaze then fell on Ben, who was sitting on the bed. Instantly, she froze in place, a reflexive fear climbing.

Gracie, seeing her daughter, came out of the room without noticing her distress, simply saying, "Emmitt has been returned to us, but when your father found him, he was in this state. We have no idea what he's been through."

Lisa looked towards Ben from a distance. Although she couldn't clearly see his expression, there was a noticeable difference in his demeanor.
