The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 809

Fion and Kent looked embarrassed.

They still thought Liana was here to bully them.

Liana and Faye felt aggrieved.

They were even furious when they saw Leah.

Would Sean have known about their family matters and stood up for Leah if Leah
had not told him?

They dared not hold it against Sean, so they pinned all the blame on Leah.

In the past, Faye would have approached Leah without a word, grabbed her hair,
and start mocking her.

However, she dared not do it in front of Sean even if she had the guts to.

“Leah, well... I'm sorry I was a little rough on you guys. I'm sorry.”

Liana gritted her teeth, stepped forward, and said to Leah.

“Huh?”

Hearing this, everyone in the living room, except Sean, Liana, and Faye, widened
their eyes.

Did they hear that right?

The unreasonable woman Liana apologized to Leah?

What Sean said before was true!

However, how... how did he do it?

Willow and the rest could not figure out what Sean did to get Liana to come over
and apologize.

“Mom, you...”

Leah's eyes widened. She was rendered speechless from the shock.

Candy poked her head out from behind Sean, confused about what was going
on.

With her IQ at this age, she could not figure out why Liana and Faye, who were
mean to her earlier, were suddenly so nice.

It was as if they were a new person.

“I'm sorry. I've thought about it all day. I should never have treated you like that.
“As you know, my mental state has been a little off for the last few years because
of Candy’s dad. Don’t mind me.”

Liana’s tone was sincere, and she was very humble in admitting her mistake.
Leah's heart could not help but soften.

“Mom, it’s fine. I'm a grown-up. It's just that Candy...”

Leah clenched her hands and whispered.

“Ah, yes, Candy...”

Liana and Faye quickly turned to look at Candy.

“Candy, I'm here to see you.”

“Candy. I'm sorry”

Liana and Faye apologized to Candy humbly.

Anyone who saw this would never believe that Liana and Faye would have ever
laid a hand on Candy.

“... Aunt Faye, I didn’t take your necklace.”

Candy looked at Faye and explained cautiously.

“I know. I misjudged you. I've put it in the wrong place...”

The grievance in Candy's eyes faded away when Faye said that.

She was not afraid of being beaten, but she did not want to be mistaken for
having stolen something.

“Ahem, well. Sit down, all of you.

“There’s nothing we can't talk through.”

Fion smiled and got up to smooth things over by beckoning Liana and Faye to sit
down.

“Candy, give me a hug.”

Faye said gently as she looked at Candy.

Candy hesitated for a few seconds, but she still held on to Sean’s arm and did
not go over.

“We should get some rest if there's nothing else.”

Sean touched Candy’s head and said indifferently.

“Well...”

Liana hesitated for two seconds before looking back at Leah.

“Leah, I'm sorry. Why don’t you come home with me?

“You're the Quinn family’s daughter—in—law after all. People will laugh at us if you
leave without saying anything.

“You know how things are with your family. Your brother won't like it if you go
back with Candy.”

Liana looked at Leah andpulled the family affection card.It was also because
Leah's parents were both dead and shehad a brother who did not get along with
Leah.It was why lyanna felt free to bully Lea.

She knew Leah had no other place to go.

When Liana said that, Willow instantlyfrowned and wanted to speak.However,
Sean reached out and stopped herbefore she could make a sound.

Then Sean shook his head slightly atWillow, signaling her to stay quiet. Willow
and Sean looked at each other for a few seconds

.In the end, she chose to keep quiet.Sean remained silent and did not even look
at leather. There were things he could helpwith and things he could not.

There was a saying even an upright officialfinds it hard to settle a family quarrel.
Therefore, Sean should not get involved.However, Sean took Leah and
Candyaway from the Quinn family.However, it would be Leah's choice ifLiana
persuaded her to go back.Sean was not making that decision for her.

He would not interfere as longas she thought it through herself.Leah looked at
Sean and then at Willow.She wanted to ask Sean what he meant, but hedid not
even look at her, making it hard forher to make up her mind for a moment.

She did not want to return to the Quinn family.However, she felt a little
embarrassedto bother Shaun and his family.Hence, she was on the fence.
