BXBX NOVEL Chapter 456
That person claimed to be her family member had come to look for her…
So…
Could she be the person Austin and Lady Gill were looking for?
At that moment, Nara felt as if she understood something, and to confirm this, she pressed the hang-up button on her phone.

Austin frowned anxiously and turned to Lady Gill. “Mom, my sister hung up again. What is she doing? Is she busy working? Or is she ill and having surgery here? I’ll try calling her again!”
Lady Gill also frowned, wanting to say something yet not knowing what to say.
Nara watched them both without moving her feet but turned off her phone.

Austin dialed again, and sure enough, a prompt
indicated the phone was switched off. He panicked.
“Mom, what’s wrong with my sister? Didn’t we agree to
meet?”
Lady Gill was also very anxious. “If she’s busy with
work, it’s fine, but if she’s sick… what kind of illness is
it? Can it be cured?”
Nara saw their anxious expressions, yet they only
made her feel ironic.
She didn’t react but just stared at Austin.
Keira noticed her peculiar behavior and looked at her. Nara slowly walked up to Austin.
Austin’s peripheral vision detected her approach, and
he turned to her. He then frowned and asked, “What do you want? Dumb mute, aren’t you leaving? Why are you still lingering here? Haven’t you bumped your head enough?”
Listening to these harsh words, Nara stared at Austin.
She felt as if she had returned to her childhood…
She was back to those scorching summer days when she played hide and seek with her brother outside the
10.50
house.
Memories from when she was three years old surged
before her eyes.
“Little sister, where are you hiding? I can’t find you! Be careful of the bugs when I’m not around to protect
you…”
Her brother’s voice lured her.
Little Nara’s lips curled into a slight smile as she quietly hid behind a cluster of bushes before slowly peeking out her little head.
Then she suddenly saw a kidnapper rushing over, grabbing her brother, and attempting to take him
away.
Little as she was, she immediately panicked.
“Austin!”
She rushed out, using all her strength to hold onto the kidnapper’s leg, “Let go of my brother!”
The kidnapper tried hard to shake her off, but unfortunately, despite her tiny frame, she was very
strong.

When the kidnapper wrenched her hands off, she bit down on the kidnapper’s leg, refusing to let go…
Exasperated by her persistence, the kidnapper · demanded, “I’ll let go of your brother. Let go of me!”
Nara heard her brother’s voice. “Help! Help us!”
She didn’t know if her brother had been released; she only knew that if she let go without her brother being freed, these villains would take him away.
So she clung tightly to the kidnapper’s leg, unwilling to release her bite or her grip.
In the end, all she heard the kidnapper say was, “Damn
it! Run!”
Then she was hauled onto a vehicle…
Only then did she see that her brother had been thrown to the ground. She pounded desperately on t
window, trying to escape.
But the vehicle had already started with no chance to
stop.
She saw her brother running after the van…
Her brother cried after her, “Sister!”

His tears streamed down his face.
She cried out in fear, “Austin!”
Her brother shouted, “Don’t be afraid! I will protect
you! Don’t worry… I’ll come to find you… I won’t let anyone harm you…”
She cried so loudly in the vehicle, wailing until, because she was a girl, they found her too annoying and simply threw her out.
Then, the kidnappers fled.
She found herself dumped on the ground, her head injured and bleeding…
She could barely remember what had happened
before…
Later, when she woke up, she saw Matias standing
before her.
Clinging to Matias, she tried to cry out, “Big brother,” but though she opened her mouth wide, she couldn’t utter a single word.
Matias was about the same age as Austin. He touched her head gently, and seeing her desperation to speak,
he said. “Don’t be scared. I’m here…”
O novelbin
Matias took her home.
Back then, Matias still had a mother and father, but later, they both died in a car accident.
Their uncle took over their home and drove the two siblings out.
Matias worked to pay for her schooling while earning a living…
Nara felt confused, so confused that it gave her a headache.
Memories from her early years, which she barely remembered, seemed etched in her bones and now flooded back.
Nara stared unrelentingly at Austin.
After a long pause, she opened her mouth and
suddenly clasped Austin’s hand, calling his name.
“Austin…”
