Chapter 449: Chapter 503

Chapter 503 Many of the things Lauryn did before were aimed at Mariela.

So today Lennon specifically called Mariela over.

In the Stark family hall.

Menu Bella heard that Lennon had an important announcement to make and guessed it was about Lauryn. Bella hurriedly rushed back from the nursing home.

Royce also put aside his work and hurried back.

The Starks sat on the sofa in the living room, with a serious atmosphere.

Seeing Mariela sitting on the sofa, Bella then looked displeased. She pretended not to understand and asked, “Lenny, what happened?”

All eyes were focused on Lennon.

Lennon looked pale, and he calmly took out his phone and made a call. In a cold voice, he ordered, “Bring her in.”

After hanging up the phone, Lennon said coldly, “You will know soon.”

Bella looked around for a while and was filled with anxiety.

Five minutes later, Matthew brought Lauryn inside.

Bella hesitated for a moment, then walked over tremblingly, looking frustrated. She shouted in anguish, “Lauryn, you, you are so silly!”

Lauryn’s face was pale, her lips were dry and peeling. Her eye sockets were sunken, with dark circles under them, making her look haggard and emaciated, as if she were about to die.

Bella couldn’t bear it and asked, “Lauryn, what have you been through these days? How do you end up like this?”

“Grandma...” Lauryn cried pitifully, tears streaming down her face.

Bella’s heart trembled as she heard it.

After all, Lauryn was raised by her. Even though she made a mistake, Bella still couldn’t bear to see her in such a state.

Bella only knew that Lauryn did things for Nikolas, but she wasn’t very clear about what exactly Lauryn did.

She didn’t know that Lauryn intentionally instructed Jaime to call the police, wanting Nikolas to kill Mariela. She didn’t know that on the day of the engagement ceremony, Dalia kidnapped Angelica under the threat of Lauryn. She didn’t know that the stab in Lennon during the engagement ceremony was actually related to her beloved granddaughter, Lauryn.

In Bella’s opinion, Lauryn was just being used by Nikolas and went astray, and this mistake could still be rectified.

But in reality, Dalia had already died. Dalia’s father, the bodyguard David, and David’s mother were all killed by Nikolas‘ men. To a greater or lesser extent, their death was all connected to Lauryn.

Nothing could make up for it.

Lennon said coldly, “Lauryn, today I officially announce in front of the whole family that you’ve been removed from our family.

From now on, you have no connection with the Stark family.”

Lauryn stared wide–eyed, her lips trembling.

Bella frowned, looking displeased, and shouted, “Lenny!”

Lennon turned a deaf ear, staring straight at Lauryn with a piercing and icy gaze.“And kneel and apologize to Marie.”

His deep eyes exuded a sharp and intimidating cold light, with a compelling aura.

Lauryn’s face turned pale as she looked pitifully at Bella. She was crying so miserably then, calling, “Grandma...”
