Second Chances Protecting Mrs. Hall by Colby Stanford
Chapter 196

Chapter 196 After hanging up, Emma did not bother with Lennon anymore.

After all, this was the Burnson family's matter.

As a classmate, she had done her best by saying this much.

She hoped Lennon would stop in time.

Emma did not like the weather in Yenovia. After the competition, she and Liam hurriedly took a private plane back to their SeaR*ch the Find Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

country.

In Troln City, it was now autumn with cool and refreshing weather. The sky was clear, and there were sparse clouds.

Although the temperature had dropped, it was basically sunny every day. When one opened the window, there were wispy clouds outside.

After she got off the plane, two familiar figures cinto view of the tarmac.

Lane and Rfelle specially wore colorful dresses today.

Lane even purposely styled her hair with a braid at the nape, looking youthful and beautiful. She tiptoed and waved at Emma, saying, “Miss Wilson, over here. Over here!" Upon seeing them, Emma felt excited.

She turned around, looked at Liam, and asked, "Did you call them here?" Liam smiled and said. "They were the ones who said they wanted to welcyou." The two girls were very loyal.

Liam thought about how going to Yenovia for Krot Competition might stir up many unpleasant memories for Emma regarding Justine's death five years ago. So, when Lane and Rielle said they wanted to come, he did not refuse.

Sure enough, Emma's mood improved significantly when she saw them.

"This is a gift that Ida askedto give you." As Lane spoke, she took out a small cross-stitched pendant and said, "Ida has been into cross-stitching recently. She said she drew this pattern herself." Emma held it and looked at it for a while. The pattern depicted cartoonish versions of Ida, Lane, and Emma. Emma could not help but laugh. Looking at this cross-stitch, she found it incredibly cute.

"Thank you," she said. “Next time, let's invite Ida to join us for a meal too." Just then, Rielle said, "Emma, Erza didn't cback with you guys this time, huh?" Upon hearing this name, Lane's smile becslightly stilted.

She saw those matters concerning Erza when she checked the information yesterday.

'It's hard to imagine that behind the carefree façade of Erza, there lies such a heart-wrenching experience, she thought.

Erza had never been free since childhood.

08:54 Mon, Jul 22 G Chapter 190 Lennon had imposed dual constraints on Erza, both physically and mentally.

Apart from training. Erza was allowed to do almost nothing.

Before the age of eighteen, he was not allowed to watch television or participate in any recreational activities. Every bite of food he ate and every extracurricular book he read was strictly controlled by Lennon.

Such a life was like that of a robot.

As Lane's grandfather, Harry had always been very supportive of her in all aspects.

She thought, If I had a grandfather like Lennon, it would be a nightmare." 74% Emma exchanged a glance with Lane and didn't elaborate to Rielle. She merely said, "He still has sthings to take care of so we cback first" The three girls chatted as they got into the seven-seater MPV that Liam had long arranged.

It happened to be dinner time. Liam had long reserved a private room for four.

After the meal, the other two girls were so satisfied that they burped.

Lane's beautiful face was flushed as she said to Emma, 'I finally understand why Ida boasted for four to five days after eating with you guys the other day. I thought she was greedy, but it turns out it's because of you guys. Miss Wilson, Mr. Hall usually spoils you a lot, doesn't he?" The custom-made food today is delicious! she thought. The richness of that taste experience is beyond what one will normally replace walking into a restaurant!' "Lane felt that even her favorite spicy shrimp pasta at Charon Military School would not be enjoyable from now on." Rielle was also sheepish. She said shyly to Liam. "Miss Wilson's boyfriend... Oops, I mean Mr. Hall, you've been so generous this time. Thank you. Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Halll "It's nothing" Liam said.

He displayed a standard and formulaic smile.

After seeing off Rielle, Emma accompanied Lane to wait for the bus.

Lane pursed her lips and twirled her braided hair with her fingers.

When Rielle mentioned Erza just now, Lane actually missed him too.

She only knew that Emma had tasked her to replace out who secretly reported Erza, but Emma did not assign her any subsequent tasks.

Since Lane looked through information about Erza's background last night, she had been feeling quite emotional He had no parents and had always stayed with his grandfather, Of course, the Kemp family could not compare to the Burnson family.

Lane's childhood was marked with abject poverty, but she felt an inexplicable connection with Erza when it cto relying on her grandfather.

She thought, I thought all grandfathers in the world were like Harry. How cthere's someone like Lennon who can't stand to see his grandson do well? I don't understand 08:54 Mon, Jul 22 Chapter 190 Lane wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she could not help but ask, "Miss Wilson, about things on Erza's end...

"Let's wait and see," Emma said. "Given the current situation, it's not good for us to interfere." "Okay," Lane said as she nodded.

Meanwhile, in the Burnson family's courtyard, an elderly man leaned against the back of a chair in front of a huge high-end rosewood table. He was dressed in military attire and had his eyes closed.

"Mr. Lennon, the detailed information on these two people is here." A middle-aged man in uniform reported meticulously.

On the table were two photos of Emma and Lane that were secretly taken at the airport today.

The middle-aged man introduced, "Her nis Emma Wilson, She used to study at Vark College, and she had excellent grades. She participated in Mr. Quinn's summer camp and earned the only early graduation qualifications in the country. Bob, the Hall family's adopted son, also received this qualification along with her." Bob's level of genius was renowned throughout Troln City.

Comparing Emma with Bob immediately gave Lennon an idea of her capabilities.

Lennon's eyebrows were dark and thick. His looks were imbued with a perennial sense of decisiveness.

His wrinkled index finger tapped another photo, and he asked, "What about her?"

His subordinate continued, "Her nis Lane Kemp. She doesn't cfrom a well-off background.

But I heard her grades at Charo е Military School are also good. Her grandfather was saved by Emma, and they have a close relationship. Also, Emma seems to be very close to the eldest son of the Hall family. This private jet belongs to the Hall family." When Lennon heard this, he said without a care, “Even if this girl is with Liam, the Hall family won't take the trouble to intervene for the sake of a few students." He was certain..

After a few seconds, his gaze drifted to the photo of Lane.

"You said she's close to Emma, huh?" he asked.

His subordinate replied, "Yep. That's right." Lennon let out a sneer and said, “She's just a child who hasn't even experienced true blood ties. What does she know about loyalty? Hmph. Bring her over to me!" "Um... Mr. Lennon, what do you mean?" the subordinate asked.

"With that trivial skills of hers, she actually dares to threaten to access my private contact information," Lennon said.

When he said this, he felt a surge of anger.

He thought, I've been in the military for over forty years and haven't encountered anyone who has the е guts to calland lecture me! So, I must teach Emma a lesson. No one can influence Erza. He's the result of my painstaking nurture for twenty years.

At the thought of Erza, he suddenly seemed to have aged a lot. He cleared his throat and said, “Just tell her that Erza's 08:54 Mon, Jul 22 Chapter 190 grandfather is looking for her and that there are no other intentions." Lane was quite surprised when she received a call from someone in the Burnson family.

+74% This was especially the case after learning last night what Lennon had done to Erza. Her feelings toward Lennon's identity as Erza's grandfather becvery complicated.

She felt a sense of disapproval and fear.

There was also a sense of confusion and anger.

After Lane received the call, she immediately told Emma about this.

Emma quickly thought about it and roughly deduced Lennon's intention. She said to Lane, "He asked you to gp, $p just gove But when you get there and if he asks you anything about what we usually do outside of school, don't answer." Lane nodded and said, “Miss Wilson, don't worry. I know that.” SEND GIFT
