Chapter 380 I Miss Her A Lot
However…
She observed Mandy fervently arguing with Jacob.
Perhaps… the previous Mandy was merely playing a role.
Meanwhile, Lennon and Lucy had finished preparing the table for their meal.
Once Cherise arrived at the table, Mandy presented a dish as if it were a precious treasure. “Look at
this. I spent the entire morning cooking this chicken!”
“Lucy said it’s delicious! She even said it’s better than the ones at New World Restaurant!”
Cherise looked at the dish Mandy was pointing at. It was a plate of perfectly roasted. chicken thighs.
After spending the entire morning on the plane, she was hungry.
As she reached for the chicken thighs, Lucy suddenly slapped her hand. “Go wash your hands!”
“Oh…”
Cherise glanced longingly at the food before turning to Lucy. Then, she turned around. and left to wash
her hands.
Once she returned, everyone was already seated at the table.
Mandy accepted a bottle of medicine from Damien with trembling hands. Her face was. flushed with
excitement. “Are you saying…”
“I’ll be free in three days?”
Damien nodded. “Something like that.”
He then poured a glass of water for Cherise before continuing, “I’ve arranged a flight for you in three
days. You’ll be going to Europe to work as a maid for the Tanner family for at
year.
Mandy’s trembling body suddenly froze. She stared at Damien. “I’ll be working… as at maid?”
“Correct.

Damien narrowed his eyes. “The Tanner family developed the chip in your brain. They also created the
medicine you’re taking.”
“I’m sending you there because the researchers in the Tanner family want to observe your condition.”
“Furthermore, my sister is relentless.”
“You’ve disrupted the schemes she had been implementing for years. Once she becomes angry, she’ll
send people to capture you by any means necessary.”
“The Tanner family residence is heavily guarded. Once you join the Tanner family, no one can harm
you, even if you’re just a maid.”
Then, he looked at Mandy’s pale expression. “Freedom comes at a price.”
“I imagine being a maid for the Tanner family is a reprieve compared to what you ve endured for the
past nineteen years.”
Mandy clenched her teeth. After a while, she softly began, “What about my father and brother…”
“Why do you still care about them at this point?”
Lucy couldn’t bear to see her so indecisive. “They treated you as a tool. Did they ever consider your
feelings?”
“Furthermore, if you care about their feelings, why did you escape?”
“For you to suddenly worry about your father and brother now, do you truly care about. them that
much?”
Mandy tightly gripped the bottle of medicine. “I….”
She raised her head and pleaded with Damien. “Can I go home… to retrieve what my mother left for
me?”
Damien frowned but eventually nodded. “Sure.”
“Thank you.”
Mandy looked down and sniffled. She drank a third of the medicine in the bottle.
“To be honest… I don’t care about my father or brother.”
“Since I was young, my mother was the only one who was kind to me.”

“Unfortunately…”
Mandy smiled bitterly. Tears streamed down her face. “I miss her a lot.”
Her tears moved everyone’s hearts.
Lucy put down her fork.
She smiled bitterly. “To be honest, you’re much stronger than I am.”
She looked into Mandy’s bloodshot eyes and felt a tinge of sadness. “At least you have fond memories
of your mother.”
