Chapter 17 His Help

• Lydia, Eason, and even Mia were a little puzzled, but soon they thought that Byron wanted to help them. Although Byron also helped Cora before, they still believed that Byron would not embarrass them on such an important occasion. After all, they were a family. So, they all scrambled to complain to Byron. “Yes, Uncle Byron. She pushed me, slapped me, and now puts all the blame on me,” Mia said first. Lydia followed and said, “Byron, I’m sorry. This is Eason’s ex-girlfriend. Maybe she feels angry, so she came here today, but she is too much. I think we should call the police and let her stay in prison for a few days as a lesson for her.”
• Eason didn’t say anything. He didn’t want Cora to go to jail, but he also thought that Cora went too far to beat them up today, and she should be punished. Byron didn’t respond to Mia or Lydia. Cora realized that Byron was asking her. He had been looking at her a moment ago. Surprised for a moment, Cora nodded. She needed help now. Otherwise, she would not be able to leave here safely, and Sally might be involved. So, she should tell Byron directly. After seeing her nodding, Byron nodded slightly. He said, “It’s not you that I will help. You played tricks and framed others. I will feel ashamed if I help you."
• His voice was not loud, but the intimidating force made people present frightened, and they unconsciously focused their eyes on him. Cora also looked at him. As she raised her head to look at Byron in astonishment, she realized that his gaze fell on Mia coldly. In other words, Byron really started to help her. But she was angry at him just now, and he should be angry with her. Therefore, although Cora had nodded and acknowledged that she needed help earlier, she hadn’t expected Byron to genuinely assist her. But Byron really helped her.
