The Runaway Groom

Chapter 127

As Lionel stepped inside his ward, he told Samantha, “You can leave. I don’t need you here.”

Samantha quickly tried to appease him. “You can’t be alone, right? I’ll stay.”

However, Lionel had already seen through her and what she wanted.

“You just want my inheritance, don’t you?” he asked, exposing her right then.

“No!” Samantha quickly explained. “I’m fine without it, but you have to take care of Ricky. He has a criminal record, and there’s every chance he won’t get a good career. You have to think of him!”

Lionel was not bothered with her rant, and simply lay down in bed!

Was he that stupid that he would not look after his own son?

Meanwhile, Irene had left quietly, and Ricky followed her out of the building.

“Sis,” he called out to her.

Turning to look at him with an impassive expression, she asked, “What?”

“I heard that you’re the one who got a specialist to help Dad,” Ricky said earnestly, his .hostility toward her before nowhere to be seen. “Thank you.”

“You don’t have to thank me. He’s my father too,” Irene replied, and left.
