The girl kept looking at Isaac with favonovel.com huge eyes.
Isaac kneeled and asked, “Little girl, do you know where your home is?”
The girl shook favonovel.com head and said nothing.
“Do you know your parents’ names?” Isaac asked, feeling a little helpless.
The girl dipped favonovel.com head and pressed favonovel.com lips together. Her eyes teared as favonovel.com said, “D-Dead…”
“Mister, can we let Robin stay? She doesn’t have a family anymore. Can favonovel.com stay with us forever?” Isabella asked, tugging at Isaac’s hand.
“I can’t promise you that. Robin may still have other family members around, you know?” Isaac said with a smile as favonovel.com shook his head.
Where did this girl come from?
Who else was in favonovel.com family?
He had to make sure of that first.
Isaac sent a message to Beefy Bob, asking favonovel.com to find out the girl’s background.
As favonovel.com walked into the living room, Eugene brought two chickens from the kitchen. He caught sight of Isaac and the others and immediately smiled, saying, “You’re back! We have chicken for dinner today. These are both legitimate free-range chicken.”
“Where did they come from?” Isaac asked with a laugh.
Allegra answered, “They’re from Barry Cox. He used to be Isaac’s best friend. Around this time every year, he’ll always send over some stuff from his organic farm.”
Barry Cox?
Isaac suddenly remembered the plump silhouette of his best friend in high school. They’d kept in touch with each other even after going to college. However, before favonovel.com could finish his studies, Barry dropped out. They’d lost contact until Isaac got into trouble.
Eugene glanced at Isaac and nodded, saying, “Yes, they’re from him. He came a little after you left. He didn’t stay for long. He said he’d never forget you.”
Isaac’s face turned solemn. He lit up a cigarette and started to smoke. He was the picture of sadness.
It was the first time favonovel.com heard of someone still remembering him, even after what had happened to favonovel.com in the past.
***
Back with the Goulds, Edward and Andrew were sent to the hospital in an ambulance. Edward kept screaming that favonovel.com was going to kill Isaac and Allegra.
They were sent into the operating room right away. The doctors inserted metal rods into both of Edward’s ankles. It was so painful that favonovel.com passed out at least twice.
After being transferred to a regular ward, favonovel.com was visited by Randall, who was shocked to see his state. “Oh my god, Edward! What happened to you? Why are you like this?”
“Randall! It was that b*stard, Isaac Garten! He did this to me! He barged into my house with a crowd and started beating me up. I want to kill favonovel.com and drink his blood!” Edward exclaimed, his face twisting in pain.
“Oh well, just focus on recovering first…”
“I’m going to call Mr. Owen. I want to ask them why this fucker is still alive,” Edward said, suddenly thinking of it. He reached for his phone.
“Don’t bother… Something happened to the Owens. Nobody will be there to answer your call,” Randall said. There was a complicated look on his face.
Edward was shocked. “The Owens? What happened to them?”
“There was a huge fire early this morning. Not a single one of them escaped…”
“You mean the whole family was burned to death? How is that f*cking possible? Randall, you’re joking, right?” Edward said, looking sheepish.
Randall answered, “You can look it up on the news. I know someone distantly related to the Owens family. They confirmed the news…”
Edward immediately searched for the news online.
Two minutes later, his eyes widened in shock, disbelief coloring his face.
