Lauren lost her patience and stabbed through Tim’s palm with the dagger.

“In our line of work, we only want money. We don’t ask questions. Moreover, he was wearing a mask the entire time. We only know that his surname is Gu…”

Tim hurriedly begged for mercy. What he had said made Lauren even more frustrated.

Who would spend so much effort to kidnap someone who had been abandoned in the countryside for eighteen years?

Unless the existence and return of the person in her memories, “Lauren”, would be a threat to someone.

Also, the assassination on the cruise ship had been arranged so meticulously, she had never failed before. Why would there be such a huge explosion?

Who wanted her dead?

But right now, she was Lauren. She had to understand the current situation and find out the mastermind who killed “Lauren” and help her seek revenge!

“You are scumbags. It’s useless to keep you!”

She tied them up and called the police.

She waited for the police to arrive and only left after seeing the police take them away.

She recalled the memories in her mind and went back to the place where “Lauren” lived.

“Lauren, you’re back. We haven’t seen you for a few days. We thought that something had happened to you.” When she reached the door, Lauren saw a fat woman, Fanny, instructing a few workers to tear down the fence.

Lauren walked over with a cold expression. Fanny noticed her and greeted her with a smile.

“Even if I die, it’s not your place to demolish my house, right?”

Lauren swept her gaze over and coldly rebuked Fanny.

Fanny was from the same village. She used to be neighbors with “Lauren’s” grandmother. After she made some money, she bought a house and moved to the city. When she came back, she kept instigating “Lauren’s” grandmother to sell her land.

It turned out “Lauren” was just gone for less than a day, and the demolition team had already arrived?

Since she had taken over “Lauren’s” body, “Lauren’s” business was hers too!

“Lauren, now that you have seen this, I won’t beat around the bush. You and your grandmother had a tough life. Now that your grandmother has passed away, there is no one to look after you. Why don’t you give me this piece of land and I’ll recommend a good job to you. That way, you still have the means to survive.”

Fanny looked a little flustered at first, but she immediately went all out.

A job recommendation?

Did she want to take the land for free?

With her around, there was no way!

“What does it have to do with you whether I have the means to survive or not? I don’t depend on you for food and water.” Lauren glared at Fanny, and Fanny’s expression immediately turned ugly.

“Lauren, it would do you good to follow my orders or face the consequences!”

“Are you Lauren?”

Lauren would not allow anyone to be presumptuous to her. Just as she was about to teach Fanny a lesson, a cold questioning voice rang out.

She frowned and glanced over. She saw a man in a white shirt and black trousers standing in front of her. His eyes were filled with doubt and he was scrutinizing her closely.

“Who are you?” Lauren looked at the man in front of her warily.

Wasn’t it enough for two men to kidnap her, yet came another Adonis?

“I’m your older brother, Roman.”

Roman stared at the scrawny Lauren in front of him and saw the similarity between her eyes and their mother’s.

“Oh.”

Lauren answered indifferently without much emotion. However, Fanny immediately scurried away when she heard that he was Lauren’s older brother.

Fanny thought that Lauren had gone missing, so she had brought people over to demolish the place and take over it forcibly. Now that an older brother appeared in the picture, she did not account for reason or law, so of course, she could only run.

“Did I say you can leave?”

Lauren noticed Fanny attempting to leave. She swiftly rushed forward and blocked her path..
