Chapter 145 Lisa wiped away her tears and hesitantly asked, "Mr. Connor, why are you so concerned about my foster mother's case?" Was it because of Chloe? Did Chloe want Ann to be released? Lisa felt that seemed unlikely. Chloe had barely seen Ann. They hadn't even had a chance to meet. How could there be any feelings between them? Besides, Chloe must resent Ann, too. Because of Ann, Chloe had suffered a lot, bearing the stigma of being the daughter of a convicted murderer and facing constant criticism. She surely wouldn't want any association with Ann.

Connor's expression remained indifferent. "Your foster mother worked for three years as a live-in housekeeper for the Gilbert family in Eldridge City. They had a good relationship with her and wanted to help. I have sconnections with the Gilberts and am acting on their request." Ann had indeed worked as a housekeeper to make ends meet, and her best employment was with the Gilberts in Eldridge City. Lisa recalled that this was around the tshe was about to start high school. Due to John's frequent domestic violence, Ann always kept her close. They moved to Eldridge City, but Lisa could only attend a private school without proper local registration.

In fact, even if you hadn't mentioned it, I was preparing to appeal on her behalf. It is a difficult process, but now, with your help, I feel reassured Lisa decided to appeal for Ann. Of course, this was after weighing the pros and cons. There were downsides, like displeasing Leah and exposing her past, which could lead to ridicule. But now, she didn't care about those things.

eat together, which would definitely advance their relationship. Moreover, she could improve her image in Connor's eyes. Even if Ann werem released it wouldn't have much to do with her going forward. Chloe was Ann's biological daughter, and Ann would becChloe's responsibility. This would create a big problem for Chloe. Why not do it? As for Leah, an apology or a tearful plea might just solve the issue.

When Lisa cin, she had noticed the untouched food on the table. It looked like it hadn't been touched. She also noticed there were two sets of cutlery on the table.

By suggesting this, would Connor invite her to stay for lunch? The m content is on novelenglish.net! X
