First Loves Return Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 240

Chapter 240 

Then, her tone changed, and she looked worried. “Is your injury hested? I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt you… L‘ 

She didn’t mean to hurt Mariels either. 

It was all Lauryn’s fault! 

But she just couldn’t bring herself to say it. 

Her father was still in Lauryn’s control. 

She had been tortured in the telecom fraud center for over a month. She hated Lauryn more than anyone and wanted her dead. 

But she couldn’t betray her. 

Her father was her only family left. 

Seeing no kindness in Lennon, Dalia felt hopeless ‘Lennon, just kill me. I can’t tell you…” 

“Why would I kill you?” Lennon’s face was stern, his tone unyielding.“Ms. Ballard, if you refuse to talk, I have to get tough.” 

Lennon stood up coldly. 

Lenny, what are you going to do to me?” Dalia’s pale face was streaked with tears, her eyes filled with fear. 

Lennon’s gaze was icy. 

He didn’t answer and turned to leave. 

“Lenny, don’t go!” Dalia cried.“Can you stay with me a bit longer?” 

Her voice was laden with desperation.“In that telecom fraud center for over a month, I endured unimaginable torment. I… I…* 

Dalia broke down completely, her sobs wracking her body as she cried out, “I was raped by those monsters! They were worse than beasts! I was beaten repeatedly every day. The food was rotten. It was worse than pig feed. Lenny, I barely survived. For over a month, you were the only reason I held on. Thinking of you gave me the strength to keep going…” 

Lennon stood facing away, his stance rigid, his features stern. 

Hearing Dalia’s heart–wrenching story, his expression remained unchanged.
