The Marriage She Turned into War novel Chapter 255

Hearing the news, I couldn't hold back my tears of joy.

Lana was only five years old. At such a young age, she had endured unimaginable pain and suffering.

Finally, she had a chance to find relief after all this hardship. My heart swelled with happiness for her, and I truly hoped she would overcome this challenge.

She had no family left, and I was her only brother, her last remaining relative. There was no way I would leave her to face this alone.

After finishing cooking for Abigail, I grabbed a small suitcase, preparing to pack my things and stay by Lana's side.

Suddenly, a chill ran down my spine. I felt a surge of tension and spun around abruptly.

Abigail stood beside me. I hadn't even noticed when she had arrived.

Her intense gaze burned into me, as though she wanted to say something but couldn't find the right words.

Her gaze made me uneasy. I mustered up a smile and said, "You're awake. I didn't want to disturb you since you seemed to be sleeping so peacefully."

Abigail blinked, offering no response. Her eyes continued to scan me from head to toe.

Feeling more uncomfortable, I tried to lighten the mood with a chuckle. "You must be hungry after waking up. I made your favorite pancakes. Do you want to try some?"

Even so, suspicion clouded her eyes.

She let out a cold laugh, her voice icy. "Why are you packing your bags first thing in the morning? Where are you planning to go?"
