Chapter 692 - Are You Already Happy?
Leila couldn\'t help but start crying. Janice loved her so much and she couldn\'t see her crying before.
Leila believed that her tears would change her mind.
After she got kicked out of the Irwan family\'s home, they had not seen each other for a long time.
Later, when Leila returned to try to find her, she was rejected by the Irwan family.
She personally believes that Janice is forced, after all, she\'s the daughter Janice loves the most.
However, Leila was currently overestimating herself.
At this moment, Janice was staring at her teary face, sneering. "Do you still have a face to cry?"
She yanked her former daughter\'s clothes hard, her eyes fierce as if they were staring at the enemy.
She knew that she had lost her strength in the past, but Janice didn\'t seem to be worrying too much about that. Her current figure is like a god of death.
Leila caused her to lose her real daughter, and even turned Irwan\'s family into a joke in Jakarta.
She will hate her forever.
Janice took a few steps back, away from each other, looking disgusted.
At this time, the other uncles finally looked at their elder sister in relief.
Hansen stretched out his thumb and said with a smile, "Sister, you should have slapped her!"
Felix was just kidding. "What are you talking about, slapping once won\'t be enough!"
Leila still cried, unable to react.
On her shoulder, Mike\'s hand was already there. She just wanted to shrink into the man\'s arms for comfort, but she heard Caleb\'s old voice. "Mike, come here!"
Mike released Leila in an instant. Not daring to fight the old man\'s sharp gaze, he walked forward.
In the next instant, crutches hit his leg non-stop. "I hit you with this stick on behalf of your grandfather."
Mike gritted his teeth and said nothing.
Caleb raised his crutches again, and hit the boy\'s arm again. "And now, I\'m hitting this stick for our two girls."
When he was about to hit a third time, Leila ran up and said, "Grandpa, don\'t hit him again! Even if he makes a mistake, it\'s all my fault!"
She prevented the old man from hitting Mike further, and when she pleaded, she stubbornly called him \'grandpa\'.
"Dennis, take her away!" Caleb\'s hatred towards Leila is no secret.
He doesn\'t even want to talk to her any more.
After giving Dennis the order, he sees that the tall and mighty Clifford has grabbed Leila by the collar and threw her a few feet away.
And that did such great damage to her wound!
Leila lay down on the ground for a long time without moving, and Mike bowed his head silently.
He was like a child who made a mistake when suddenly faced with the old man\'s anger.
"Let me ask you, do you really want to marry her?"
Hearing that voice, Mike\'s tone was calm. "Yes!"
The old man suddenly narrowed his eyes, his gaze gloomy. "If… the consequence of marrying her is that the entire Austin family completely disappeared from Jakarta, would you still want to do this?"
These words finally make Mike panicked.
He lifted his head and bumped into the old man\'s sharp eyes, and he was out of breath. "This is my own decision and has nothing to do with the Austin family. I… am not part of the Austin family anymore!"
Caleb\'s grim aura was seen once again. As if this famous general was wrapped in an unbearable majestic atmosphere, he asked again, "Answer my question. Do you still want to marry her even though it will result in the Austin family\'s disappearance?
As a war veteran, he used to kill enemies on the battlefield. And even in his old age, Mike could not bear to face the grim aura exuding from the old man.
Mike paused, the air he breathed felt suffocating from Caleb\'s grim stare.
...
Currently , the night was very dark, but the open space in front of the inpatient room remained filled with a solemn atmosphere.
Caleb asked straightforwardly, as if delivering a heavy fist on Mike\'s head.
He opened his eyes with difficulty, and faced Caleb\'s sharp gaze. "After all, she was also your former granddaughter..."
Mike\'s tone was filled with fear as he said it. The old man then understood his thoughts. The color of his eyes was very deep. His previously terrifying sharp gaze loosened up in an instant. After a breath, he muttered to Mike, "Get up, it\'s so cold tonight. Since it\'s your choice, you shouldn\'t regret it later!"
After giving a warning with the corners of his lips, he turned and walked towards the car.
On the road, he saw Leila still lying on the ground. The man then snorted in disgust, and got into the car in the blink of an eye.
The rest of the Mayer family walked behind him. Before getting into the car, Janice glanced at Mike and warned in a clear voice, "Mike, I\'ve been watching you grow up. What you are doing now is really good, you stick to your decisions. But your choice is making people feel disappointed."
Mike lowered his eyelids, but his hands on the side were clenched into fists.
Is it worth it?
He felt it was worth it!
So what if the whole world didn\'t understand, he didn\'t plan to look back!
The convoy darted away from the two of them.
The moonlight grew brighter and the cold wind slowly slapped his face, but all this made Mike\'s eyes turn red.
He shifted his gaze and looked towards the top floor of the inpatient building. In his field of vision, the lights on the corridor were projected onto the bright window. Besides, it seemed like someone was standing in front of the window from Lilia\'s room.
Even though it was far away, that figure always managed to charm her.
Outside the hall corridor, Mellisa stopped carefully.
The bright color of the lamp was too strong, so she bowed her head most of the time.
After sending her grandfather, Mellisa stood still for a long time.
Today, before the opening of the press conference, she overheard Clifford and the team of bodyguards chatting, so she had news.
It is said that after Leonard returned to his family home in Bandung, he was prohibited from going out.
Mellisa didn\'t doubt this, although she didn\'t have much contact with Clifford, the man never lied.
She thought all of it while trying to deal with the strange, complex emotions she felt inside her heart.
Choosing to jump out the window at that time was originally a fateful decision with the other party hiding in the dark.
But after learning about the situation recently, Mellisa realized that Leonard was not as bad as she had imagined.
Somehow, there was a trace of worry that caught her heart, and she even wanted to go to Bandung to meet him.
She only wanted to ask one thing— \'Are you happy?\'
There were too many emotions churning in her heart, which made it difficult for her to remain calm.
Right now, since she took too long to ponder, Mellisa looked down, But the light wasn\'t that great, so she couldn\'t see anything.
She sighed softly, rubbing her sore forehead with her thumb.
Behind her, the door to the ward opened. She turned and saw Jean. "How is she?"
The man answered in a deep voice. "She\'s fine."
"I\'ll go in and have a look." Mellisa confined the melancholy between her eyebrows.
As she was about to walk in, she hesitated to take another look at the man. "Leonard... is he really locked up?"
Hearing that voice, the man turned to the side and said calmly, "To be more precise, he was put under house arrest by his family."
Mellisa\'s breath caught, her face looked shocked. "What is the reason?"
"If you want to know, why not go and take a look?"
The cold night air became warm at Mellisa\'s shocked expression.
Jean didn\'t wait for her to answer, he just walked slowly to the elevator.
Mellisa curled up behind him, speechless.
