StarNovelChapter 237
How on earth would Leah let Grace go? Without Grace, she couldn’t control Allison. Allison was
already so defiant, and without Grace, things would only
get worse.
The truth about the hotel was like a licking time bomb. Before Penelope became Lucian’s wife, this
secret needed to be kept under wraps.
When Christopher got the news of his daughter’s coma, he dropped everything and rushed over.
Upon arriving at the hospital, he saw Leah. Leah pointed at Allison and said to Christopher,
“Christopher, this is the precious child you’ve always spoiled. If it wasn’t for her, our Penelope wouldn’t
be in a coma. If anything happens to Penelope, Allison, you’ll pay with your life!”

seemed torn in front of her. Wasn’t Christopher’s multiple assistances due to his quilt over the past?

to ask Christopher to help save her mother. But now, Allison understood that Penelope, Leah, and
Christopher were family, and they’d stick together no matter what

threatened and controlled by Leah, Christopher would still play the role of mediator.

“Yes, it was me.” Allison scoffed, “I just hope that you three, can pay for what you’ve done!”
Christopher’s face changed, and he chided, “Allie, how could you talk like that!”
“Mr. Flanagan, you don’t have to pretend to care about me anymore, I’ve seen through the true colors
of the Flanagan family!”
Christopher pointed at Allison and said, “Allie, you disappoint me!”
“Disappointed? Mr. Flanagan, did you think you could keep the cause of my father and Ricky’s death

minute?”
“..” Christopher was speechless, his face showing both guilt and anger at being exposed, “Allison, that
happened many years ago. All these years, I’ve never been able to forget it.”
Leah knew that Christopher could never forget about it, especially with Grace involved. She watched
the expression on Christopher’s face, secretly angry at Allison, “Christopher has been so good to you
and Grace for all these years. Wasn’t everything you ate, wore, and lived in, provided by the Flanagan
family? You’re really ungrateful.”
“Mr. Flanagan, I hope you can truly be at peace.”
