Chapter 940
Chapter 940 Elvira approached and asked, "What's going on with you, Mr. Hendrix?" Scott looked up again—his emotions seemed to have reverted to their previous state.
He ordered, "Free everyone else and send them to Xander Residence, except Caroline. On the other hand, assign bodyguards to watch them at all times and update me immediately if there's anything." Elvira replied, "Yes, sir." Reuben observed Scott from the side.
Reuben pondered, 'I can't figure out Scott's goal of monitoring Ms. Shenton and her children. Now that Mr. Jordan
is gone and Mr. Xander is missing, is he still worried that someone might pose a threat to him?" An hour later, the children and Greta were sent back to Xander Residence. In fact, their phones were returned to them.
Greta wanted to send a text to Yuliana when she got her phone.
Axel stopped her and glanced at the bodyguard posted at the door and the surveillance cameras in the villa. He said, "Grandaunt Greta, don't do it for now." Greta was stunned. "I have to let your granduncle and Yu—" "Grandaunt Greta," Tyler interrupted.
He approached Greta and tugged at her
top, beckoning her to bend over.
She complied, and Tyler whispered, "Don't mention Aunt Yulia at home. I think the devil hasn't noticed her." Greta looked at Tyler in astonishment, and Tyler nodded at her.
Greta breathed out and said, "Alright. I shall notify your Granduncle Tom then." Greta texted Thomas: [I'm home.] Soon afterward, she put away her phone and summoned the service staff while asking the children for their meal requests.
Tyler and Axel were easygoing, but Liora sat on the sofa without responding when asked.
Greta frowned and sat next to Liora.
"Lia?" Liora was staring at a spot without blinking. — "Grandaunt Greta, I'm not picky. I'm fine with anything," said Liora.
Tyler and Axel exchanged glances.
Liora would have already been making requests if this were an ordinary day.
On the other hand, she appeared to have changed, as if she had transformed into a different person.
She had lost her vitality and curled up on the sofa.
Tyler was distressed by her state. "How long are you going to keep being like this?" Axel frowned and tugged at Tyler. "Ty, give her some time to regain composure."
"Regain composure? How long has she been at this? We have gone through the same things as her! If we can pull ourselves together forcefully, why can't she?" Liora's eyes glistened when she heard Tyler's remark. Her arms that were wrapped around her knees tightened.
Tyler shoved away Axel's hand and walked over to Liora. "Get up, Liora!" Liora kept her lips tightly pursed in silence.
Tyler clenched his teeth in rage.
"Liora! I'm not going to repeat myself again! Get up!" Liora suddenly looked up and shouted at Tyler, "I don't want to! I don't want
to get up! I can't do anything! I can't save Uncle Neil or Uncle Kenny! I can't stay with Mommy!" Sl Tears fell from her eyes as she spoke.
She sobbed and complained, "I'm not as capable as you and Axel when it comes to working on the computer. All I know is to eat and sleep. Even if I can sense something, there's nothing I can do! I hate myself for being like this!" Liora jumped off the sofa, shoved Tyler away, and ran upstairs swiftly.
Tyler stood in the same spot in a daze.
Axel was worried and went after Liora hastily.
Greta sighed because she felt helpless at this point and looked at Tyler
concerningly. "Ty..." I Tyler lowered his gaze and appeared dejected. x Greta felt her heart wrench in pain.
Ty, Lia..." "No need to say more, Grandaunt Greta. It's my fault for not considering Liora's feelings."
