Chapter 170 Leaving Maviston

She had never thought about leaving Maviston

“Yes! Leave! We can transfer Grandma to a better hospital, and when the medication is available, she can use it.”

“Let me think about it! Sierra didn’t reject the idea. Jonathan’s words had opened up new possibilities for her.

If she left Maviston, would she be able to escape everything here? Would all the bad things become a thing of the

It sounded tempting, but Sierra knew she had to think it through carefully because there were still things she hadn’t settled

yet.

Jonathan didn’t rush her. He was merely giving her a suggestion. The fact that Sierra was even considering it was already a good sign.

“What do you want to eat?” Jonathan pinched Sierra’s earlobe as he asked.

For the past two days, they had been practically glued together. Jonathan wished Sierra would just move in with him.

Perhaps because of the specific moment that morning. Sierra had been keeping her distance from Jonathan ever since. The moment she sensed anything unusual, she would immediately back away, as if he was about to devour her.

Jonathan found it amusing yet helpless. All he could do was suppress his usual nature and try his best to appear gentlemanly. However, Sierra, who already knew his true colors, wasn’t so easily fooled.

Just as the two were discussing dinner, they suddenly heard a commotion outside. Among the voices, one of them was

Dickson’s.

They exchanged a glance, and Sierra quickly opened the door, only to see two people who shouldn’t be here… Evan and Sean. Dickson was blocking the entrance, refusing to let them in.

“Dickson! Sierra called out.

Hearing Sierra’s voice, Dickson stopped blocking them and quickly ran to her side, complaining. “They want to see you again. I wouldn’t let them.”

“Sierra, go back inside. I’ll handle this.”

Sierra had no intention of letting Dickson deal with the two brothers. Seeing them here didn’t surprise her at all. She looked at them, but instead of the anger she had expected, their expressions were unreadable. Finally, Evan spoke up. “What will it take for you to let Dad and Bradley go?”

Sierra paused for a moment before chuckling. “You think I’m the one pulling the strings? I don’t have that kind of power. There’s no point in coming to me. They broke the law, and their punishment is up to the law system.”

“Sierra, we know we were wrong before. We shouldn’t have done those things, but we’ve already been punished. Isn’t that enough?” Evan’s voice was filled with pain. Over the past two days, he had finally understood the cruelty of the world.

Sierra was tired of the Xander family members‘ inability to comprehend simple facts. Ignoring them, she pushed Dickson back into the house and closed the door behind her.

“Wait!” Evan, knowing how difficult it would be to see Sierra again, instinctively reached out to stop the door.

Evan gasped in pain. Sierra looked at him coldly, thinking he must have lost his mind. Evan didn’t care about the pain in his hand and quickly said, “What will it take for you to agree? Do I have to get down on my knees and beg you?”

“Evan!” Jonathan spoke up before Sierra could respond. “Stop acting like your family is some kind of victim. This is just the start. When you threw her in prison back then, did you ever think about any of this? Why is it that when you do something, it \doesn’t seem extra, but when she does, you act like she’s committed some crime? And also, she hasn’t even done anything.
