Chapter 299 You Don’t Want to Be Too Indebted to Tyler?

• Lauren and Axel went to the station to pick Lucy and Riley up. At the same time, introductions were made between Axel and Lucy. The moment Riley spotted Lauren, she beamed with delight and hugged her, refusing to relinquish her hold. Even after getting into the car, she chattered away, so much so that both Lucy and Lauren couldn’t get a word in edgewise. Finally, she got worn out and dozed off in Lucy’s arms. After all, she’d been on the train for several hours since her heart condition didn’t permit her to take a plane. Lauren was worried that the landing and takeoff would be too taxing on her heart, so she asked Lucy to bring Riley to Copper City by train.
• “You know what, Lauren? Riley missed you greatly while you were away. I couldn’t bear to see her in such a miserable state, but fortunately, you called and asked us to come over. Otherwise, I really don’t know how I’d be able to mollify this little brat.”
• “Thank you, Lucy!” Lauren said with a smile, sincerely thanking Lucy.
