Chapter 73 Another Chance

As soon bas /bSierra finished speaking, she could clearly sense Kason’s excitement rising

He spoke with a hint of enthusiasms, “That’s quite an unusual taste, but I like it

Sierra smiled without saying a word. She knew Kason had taken the bait.

Overall, the meal went smoothly. She kept feeding Kason ambiguous words, and she could tell the way he looked at her had changed. It burned with even more intensity,

In the bend/b, Kason properly escorted her to the entrance of her apartmentplex,

“It’s toote, so I bwon’t /binvite you up today. Let’s meet another time, Sierra said casually to Kason before turning and walking inside. She could feel the scorching gaze on her back, but it only filled her with disgust.

Kason hadn’t expected Sierra to give him such a surprise, which only deepened his interest in her.

However, he couldn’t rush things. Sierra might be a little fraud. He decided to observe her a little longer.

Once Sierra was out of Kason’s sight, she finally let out a breath.

Just then, a voice rang out. “If you’re so scared, why bother going at all?”

Startled, Sierra snapped back to her senses and saw Jonathan standing behind her bwithout /bher knowing when he had arrived.

She let out a sigh of relief and quickly said, “Quick, Mr. Yeager, let me look at you and erase his face from my mind.”

With that, she stared at Jonathan bintently/b.

After seeing someone as twisted as Kason, she urgently needed to look at a normal person to recover.

Jonathan chuckled at her expression but suddenly thought of something. Suppressing his smile, he adjusted his sses and said, “Did it ever cross your mind that I might be a creep bjust /blike Kason?”

“You’re not!” Sierra blurted out without hesitation.

“bOh /bAnd how do you know that?” Jonathan looked away, his tone indifferent. “You’re btoo /bbeasy /bto fool. How long bhave /byou known me?”

I’ve known you for a long time! We’re just strangers who have never met bbefore/bb, /byet you’re willing to help a stranger so much. Flow could someone ilike /iyou be a bad person?

Thinking of bthis/b, she smiled and said, “It hasn’t been long, but I trust you!”

“Thor,” Jonathanmented bluntly, but the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

Sierra didn’t bargue/b. The two chatted as they walked upstairs.

The next morning. Sierra didn’t have bany /bbsses/b, bso /bshe went to the hospital to visit Lily and Dickson. She had asked the doctor to ce them in the same room.

After spending the past few days together, Lily and Dickson had grown quite close.

With no other family, Dickson had begun to see Lily as his own grandma.

His injuries were mostly healed. When he saw bSierra /benter, le immediately stood up and called out, “Sierra,e sit!”

Sierra nced at him, noting that he had recovered well, and nodded in approval.

Perhaps because of Dickson’spany, Lily seemed much more spirited.

Sierra felt reassured. She had made the right choice. Lily would have been too lonely in the hospital by herself. Having

Mourover, after using the medicine Jonathan had sent over, Lily looked noticeably better.

Finished

Lily held Sierra’s hand and asked about her situation. When she learned that Sierra hadpletely cut ties with the Xander family, a trace of heartache shed in her eyes. But soon, she said firmly. “That’s fine. We don’t need them! We have Dickson now. We’ll be just fine as a family”

After chatting for a while, Lily grew tired. Dickson pulled Sierra outside. He clearly had something to say.

b“/bSierra, Grandma got a call yesterday. Afterward, she wasn’t in a good mood. I asked her about it, but she wouldn’t say

Dickson bsaid/b.

Hearing this, Sierra thought for a moment before replying, “I know what it’s about.”

The only person who could affect Lily’s mood blike /bthat was bYulia /b

Previously, Yulia had been beaten by James, leaving her with a fractured bone. Sierra had helped report it to the police, but Yuliater regretted it. After that, Sierra had left her alone. Still, it wasn’t hard to imagine that Yulia wasn’t doing well

But Sierra had no intention of interfering. Yulia had made her own choices.

“Thank you for these past few days. I can see that Grandma bis /bin much better spirits, Sierra said.

Dickson quickly shook his head. “It’s not because of me. I should be the one thanking you.

If not for Sierra giving him hope, he wouldn’t even know what he’d be doing with his life right now.

“I just spoke with the doctor. You can be discharged tomorrow. You can stay at my ce for bnow/b, and then think about what you want to do next. Do you want to continue your studies?” Sierra asked.

Dickson looked at her in disbelief.

Ever since Daphne was imprisoned, he had dropped out of school. He had never even dared to imagine that he might have another chance to study.
