Tommy, who was on the side, stared at the TV screen intently. When he heard what Luca said, he


    could not help but mutter to himself, "I don''t like Aunt Leia. Aunt Leia looks like she eats children. She''s


    scary."

    Luca knew that Leia hated her three kids because of Bianca.


    Although the children were innocent and somewhat ignorant, they still noticed her expression. As such,


    they were not only afraid of Leia but they also hated her.


    Although the adults had not told them any of the despicable things that Leia did, they all knew.


    Rainie asked, "Ms. Luca, is Aunt Leia ill?"


    "Yeah." Luca nodded and said, "Which is why she needs her biological father to help."


    Tommy put his head on Luca and looked up at her. "Ms. Luca, Aunt Leia is so bad. Will her daddy save


    her?"


    "He''ll likely agree if their blood type matches..." Luca guessed that there was a chance Dexter would


    say yes.


    Even though Dexter did not have much affection for Leia, he would not go against money.


    She could not buy a liver source from the ck market, but Dexter was Leia''s father, so it was legal to


    pay him to save Leia.


    "I''m terrified of seeing Aunt Leia," Tommy added.


    Luca was speechless. She was locked up on the Ind of Despair for the same duration as when Leia


    was abroad.


    Tommy was a baby before she left. How could he have so many memories of Leia?


    It seemed that fear could be deeply ingrained in people''s hearts. Tommy still remembered Leia''s stern


    expression. That memory seemed to be etched into the bottom of his heart.


    Luca was a little worried about N, who was still on the Ind of Despair.


    One day, she would rescue N from that horrible ce. She would show her the sun, the sea, and the


    grasnd. Luca wanted nothing more than to erase every memory she had on the Ind of Despair.


    However, could the deep-rooted memory be erased?


    Luca was worried sick.


    Luke did not head to the shelter immediately after he left the vi. Instead, he asked Lliam to send him


    to the Norman family''s ce.


    After all, he was not a rtive of Leia. Someone from the Norman family had toe forward for this.


    After Luke exined the situation to Jack, Jack agreed to go with him to the shelter to find Dexter.


    The two arrived at the Blue Skies Shelter together.


    After they exined the situation to the director of the shelter, he took them to Dexter''s dormitory and


    said, "This is Dexter''s dormitory. He has seven roommates. If you feel it''s inconvenient to talk in front of


    so many people, there''s a pantry you can go to behind here.”


    "Thank you." Jack nodded and opened the dormitory door.


    Although this kind of shelter was funded by the state, it was for the homeless, after all. The conditions


    were not very good. An overwhelming pungent smell overwhelmed their senses the moment they


    opened the door.


    Luke frowned.


    The director did not go in. He stood at the door and said, "Dexter, someone is looking for you."


    Dexter heard him, put on his slippers, and walked out slowly, "Who is it..."


    When he saw Luke, he recognized who was in front of him.


    Someone had shown him a video and asked him to talk to the reporters about it. They promised him a


    sum of money if he did so.


    After he agreed, he also saw the scene where the man returned to the car and reported to Luke


    Crawford, the richest man in A City. Dexter recognized him just by looking at his side profile.


    "It''s you!" He pointed at Luke, his fingers trembling slightly.


    Luke stared nkly at Dexter. He had always been a clean freak and could not stand such a messy


    environment.


    Jack nced at the two of them calmly and said, "Mr. Dexter, shall we go to the pantry in the back to


    talk?"


    "Okay." It was clear from Dexter''s tone that he was excited. He recognized Jack as well. He knew that


    there would be some moneying his way since an established businessman and a politician had


    come to look for him.


    The shelter director took the two to the pantry and left after he asked the homeless who gathered there


    to y cards to leave.


    Dexter squinted at the two men in suits, picked his nose, and asked, "What do you need my help for?"


    Jack said, "Leia is sick."


    ''Leia?''


    Dexter frowned and responded, "What does her being sick have to do with me? You''ve raised her for


    more than 20 years. Don''t tell me that you''re asking me to cover her medical bills now? I don''t have the


    money."


    Jack frowned. He had investigated Dexter after Leia''s reputation was ruined by him.


    He was a gambling addict who sold his wife and daughter for money...


    However, that was all in the past. Jack said, "Only you can save Leia now."


    "Save her? Are you kidding me? That girl has nothing to do with me even if she''s dying. After all, she


    didn''t acknowledge me as her father when she was popr. Now that she''s sick, she wants my help?


    You''re her adoptive father, right? You can tell her to dream on." Dexter sneered. He was standing there


    with his arms crossed, and his legs shook like he had Parkinson''s.


    After he got some money from Luke, Dexter knew that Leia was worthless to him, so he had not shown


    up again.


    Sure enough, after he made such a fuss, there was no more of Leia''s work on TV or the inte.


    Therefore, he felt at ease staying in this shelter with poor conditions. At least the country was keeping


    him alive.


    Luke looked at his hooligan-like appearance and understood why Leia was such a terrible person.


    "You''ll be rewarded handsomely if you can save Leia," Luke said. He had discussed this with Jack in


    the car.


    Jack was the provincial governor and someone of special status. They would have to pay him off if


    Dexter had no conscience and refused to save Leia.


    After all, it made sense for Luke to pay someone to save his sister-inw, Leia. That would prevent


    Jack from having any ckmail material falling into the hands of his political enemies.


    Jack also agreed to Luke''s n, but he insisted that the money would not be paid by Luke. He would


    pay back Luke with some interest after his retirement.


    Dexter''s eyes lit up when money was mentioned. "Money makes the world go round. How can I save


    her? Do you want my blood? Skin? As long as it doesn''t involve my life, I can give it to her."


    Jack''s gaze turned cold seeing his greed for money and fear of death. He did not believe it when


    someone used to tell him that a child''s personality followed their parents.


    After all, children were young and could be taught about right and wrong. Even if the parents were


    terrible, there was a chance to avoid letting the same thing happen to the kid if there were proper


    measures in ce to educate them.


    However, it was clear through parts of their personalities that Dexter and Leia were carved out of the


    same mold.


    Dexter had never been involved in educating Leia nor had any contact with her when she was growing


    up.


    However, her bad qualities were exactly the same as Dexter''s.


    "She has a liver problem and needs a transnt," Jack said.


    Dexter shook his head immediately when he heard the word ''liver''. "I can''t live without a liver! No way!"


    "She doesn''t need a whole liver. It''ll just be a partial transnt. It won''t affect you much," Jack told him.
