Chapter 460 "Right, I'll head up in a bit. Sweetheart, how did you get hurt? It doesn't look like a fall; more like someone had a go at you?" Mrs. Amanda could tell at a glance that the injuries on Lemira weren't from a simple tumble. They were the kind you get from someone laying hands on you. Lemira's expression turned a bit awkward: "It's nothing." "Honey, did someone at hdo this to you? You can tell me. You just helpedout big time, and I swear I'll sort this out for you." Mrs. Amanda, seeing Lemira's expression, jumped straight to the conclusion of domestic abuse.

Lemira couldn't help but let out a mix of a laugh and a sigh: "It's not domestic abuse, but it's not far off. My brother is the one who did this." "That brother of yours is a real piece of work. If I had a daughter and my son dared to lay a finger on her, I'd break his legs myself. How could he lay hands on his sister?" Mrs. Amanda was fuming.
She looked at Lemira: "Who is your brother? I'll hire the best lawyer in town for you, make him pay for what he did." "It's okay, I can handle it. But thank you, Mrs. Beautiful." Hearing the words 'Mrs. Beautiful', Mrs. Amanda couldn't help but touch her face with a hint of pride: "Have I really been looking after myself that well? I'm old enough to be your mom." "You look very young." Mrs. Amanda's mood improved significantly: "Sweetheart, could you doa favor? Could you takeup to the VIP hospital wing and say I'm a family member?" "Sure." Mrs. Amanda was taken aback: "You're not going to ask why?" "No need." Lemira stood up: "Let's go, I was heading back to my room anyway." Mrs. Amanda linked her arm with Lemira's: "Then let's be on our way." This should keep them from drawing too much attention.
