Chapter 287

More than an hour later, Brandon and Seth arrived at the Young’s home.

There weren’t many people there. When the servants saw that Brandon had returned, they

respectfully greeted him and walked away.

Brandon entered Lorena’s master bedroom.

Lorena was half-lying on the soft bed. Her eyes were closed, and she looked haggard. Her hair, which had always been neatly combed, was a bit messy, and she didn’t look well. When she heard footsteps, she immediately opened her eyes. At the sight of Brandon, she squinted her eyes. Her pupils dilated gradually, and her voice trembled slightly. She said, “Shelton, finally. You’re back.”

Brandon didn’t know whether it was an illusion. He seemed to have seen tears in Lorena’s eyes. He thought he must be hallucinating.

Lorena was so tough. How could she shed tears?

“Lorena.”

Brandon walked over and held Lorena’s hand, which was like a withered vine. The coldness of her fingertips made Brandon upset.

Brandon’s voice made Lorena cry even harder. No matter how tough she was, she was no match for loneliness. And she was just an old woman no less.

Lorena did not say anything. She just kept crying.

Brandon knew Lorena well. She would not have been like this if she weren’t desperate.

Brandon comforted Lorena for a while. After Lorena fell asleep, Brandon walked out of the room. Seth stood at the door, waiting for him. Seeing that Brandon didn’t look good, Seth dared not speak.

Aldo just came back from the outside. Brandon asked Aldo, “What is wrong with her?”

Aldo glanced inside and hesitated. Then he said, “Those people ran away one day out of the blue, leaving behind a pile of mess. Lorena fainted on the spot after knowing that. I was afraid that something would happen to her, so I quickly informed you, Mr. Young.”

Aldo was the son of Zedd Edmund, the old servant of the Young family. The two generations of the Edmund family had always worked for the Young family. Aldo grew up in the Young’s home. After Zedd passed away, Aldo replaced his role and had always been at Lorena’s side.

What happened must be serious. Otherwise, Lorena wouldn’t have fainted. Brandon suddenly thought of something. He looked at Aldo coldly. “They ran away?”
