Chapter 518

“Hello. Are you this girl’s mother? I’m Sarah Quillen. I was just in the area…”

After introducing herself, Sarah gave a summary of what happened earlier.

“Oh… Thank you so much. I… I’ll get you some water!”

The sickly woman tried to get up, but she stumbled back down as she was

too weak.

“It’s fine! Just lie down and rest.”

Sarah quickly eased the woman back down and instructed Suri to give half

the food they brought with them to the pitiful mother–daughter duo.

Suri wanted to object but the steely look in Sarah’s eyes stopped her.

“You’re… you’re so kind! Are you angels who were sent down from heaven?”

The sickly woman was so moved that she began to tear up.

She was ill in bed and couldn’t leave to gather food, so Sarah’s kindness was

a life–saving gesture.

“Not at all. Here, eat something.”

Sarah gave the sickly woman a bun before she began to chat with her.

She found out that the girl’s name was Amy Hedge, and that she was

eighteen this year. Over a year ago, she was sexually assaulted by the village

bully and the trauma led to her mentally challenged state.

The sickly woman wasn’t the girl’s biological mother. She was in fact her aunt,

though she did raise the girl like her own.

Alas, she had fallen ill recently and couldn’t leave the house, so she had no

choice but to let Amy head out in search of food. She didn’t think the village

children would attack Amy.

“Amy’s so lucky that you two came along when you did!”

The sickly woman sighed. “Eastern Star Mountain is too underdeveloped. No

one cares about the village settlements here because we’re too remote.”

“Over the years, a gang known as Star Hounds has taken over Eastern Star

Mountain. Their leader is known as Mr. Hound. He has been oppressing the

people here for many years now!”

“He’s the one who hurt Amy and caused her mental state! And now, even

their children have become so despicable. There’s no more hope for us!”

Sarah’s blood was boiling. She couldn’t believe that such gangs still existed in

this day and age.

How horrible!

Just then, there was a barrage of footsteps outside.

At the very next moment, someone kicked the door and hollered

threateningly, “Get the f*ck out here or I’ll burn your house down!”

“Oh, no! Mr. Cobra’s here!” The sickly woman turned even paler and shook like

a leaf when she heard the voice outside.

“Don’t be afraid! I’m here. I’m not scared of them!”

Sarah stood up to open the door. How despicable! They say they’re going to

burn the house down, huh? Let me see what makes them think they can be

so cocky.

“Don’t!”

Somehow, the sickly woman found the strength to stop Sarah. “You’re not

from this village so you don’t know how terrifying Mr. Cobra can be!” she

desperately warned. “Especially you, Ms. Quillen. You’re so beautiful. If he sees

you, he’s going to want to hurt you too!”

Suri stood in Sarah’s path too. If something happened to Sarah here, she

wouldn’t be able to face the Quillen family. It would be too catastrophic!

Although Sarah was hopping mad, she was able to calm down and agree to

stay hidden for now.

The sickly woman had Amy open the door.

1…

When Cobra’s son, the oldest among the children earlier, saw Amy, he

immediately kicked her in the butt.

“You stupid girl! How dare you get someone to help you? I’m going to kill you!”

He began to punch and kick Amy once more.

Sarah couldn’t take it. She wanted to charge out there and teach the bunch

of inhumane beasts a lesson, but Suri clung to her for dear life!

I can’t let Miss Sarah do anything rash!
