Chapter 457

    Nash took the roses and headed out.


    Olivia quickly responded, realizing that if she did not handle the situation properly and Nash stepped in,


    her cousin would likely be in real trouble.


    One of the officers next to Angelica asked, “Chief White, what should we do?”


    “Just let them handle it privately!”


    Angelica replied nonchntly, leading her team away with the rest of the officers following behind.

    Olivia smiled and said to Luna, “Take me to your home, Young Miss.”


    Luna pressed her red lips together and responded, “Ms. Olivia, there’s no need. I’ll definitely pay back


    the 30,000 I owe Mr. Lee too!”


    Olivia smiled and said, “You don’t need to pay back that money. Also, I’ll give you an additional 200,000


    as an apology on behalf of my cousin.”


    200,000?!


    Luna’s heart was beating wildly. She then started shaking her head vigorously, “No, no, no… I can’t


    ept that… Not asking me to repay the 30,000 is already a huge favor!”


    Being in her first year of university, anding from a poor family, even 30,000 seemed astronomical


    to her, let alone 200,000 dors.


    “Oli, it was her father who tried to sell her. Why should I pay? Isn’t this a matter of mutual consent?”


    p!


    Olivia pped ude again and said to her bodyguards, “Take him home and enforce our family’s


    punishment!”


    “What?


    “The fam…family punishment?”


    The Lees’ family punishment was set by their grandfather.


    It was a hundredshes with a thorned whip.


    This punishment had never been executed on anyone before.


    Olivia coldly ordered, “Take him away.”


    If the brat did not learn his lesson now, he would cause big trouble for the Lees in the future.


    Even her doting father would not be able to intervene this time.


    As the bodyguards started to take ude away, one of them said,


    “Ms. Olivia, Mr. ude is severely injured… we should take him to the hospital first!”


    “He’ll eventually end up in the hospital anyway. Let him suffer a bit more first!”


    Olivia replied with a cold smirk and had a very firm attitude.


    She then turned to Luna. Her tone softened as she asked, “Young Miss, you may take me to your


    home now.”


    Luna hesitatingly replied, “M-my home is very messy and dirty…”


    Olivia smiled warmly, “It’s okay. Just take me over and let me have a look!”


    Arriving at Luna’s home, Olivia was taken aback.


    Luna, along with a seven or eight-year-old brother and a five-year-old sister, were all living under a


    bridge.


    The area was dark, damp, and littered with trash.


    “You… you don’t have a home?” Olivia asked, stunned by the sight.


    With tears in her eyes, Luna nodded, “My father sold our house.”


    She shared her story with Olivia, who felt deep sympathy toward her.


    When Olivia was seventeen or eighteen, she had thousands to spend every month.


    Yet here was Luna, at the same age, struggling with hunger and living under a bridge.


    “Ms. Olivia… please don’t enforce the family punishment on Mr. ude… He goes to the same


    university as me and once helped me fend off some bullies!” Luna spoke timidly.


    Olivia raised an eyebrow, “Really?”


    Luna nodded, “Yeah. On my first day at university, some seniors tried to harass me. Mr. ude thought


    they were an eyesore and stepped in, beating them up.”


    A small smile formed on Olivia’s lips.


    As she was often busy with business matters, she seldom paid attention to her cousin


    Every time she encountered him, it was usually to clean up his messes.


    She had always perceived ude as a tyrant but never realized he had a kind side.


    Perhaps ude was trying to help Luna in his own way?


    “Take your valuables ande stay with me at the hotel!”
