Chapter 791
At this moment, Sean's body was exuding an icy cold aura, revealing a murderous look.
Candy lay in Sean's arms as if she had done something wrong, her little head huddled up in his arms, motionless.
"What's going on with her?"
Sean walked directly in front of Leah, reached out, and lifted Candy's clothes on the back.
"Oh my goodness!"
Willow exclaimed, stood up, and walked to Candy.
There were several bruises on the baby-soft skin of Candy's back.
Many of them even turned purple, indicating that they had been there for a few days.
Moreover, there were some red marks, which meant it was new injuries.
"Hsss!"
Willow wanted to reach out to touch it but she did not dare to do so. Her eyes were filled with tears in distress.
Candy was lying in Sean's arms obediently without saying a word.
As if she had used to it.
"Who hit her?"
Sean looked at Leah coldly.
It was entirely because of Candy, this innocent kid that he was nice to Leah.
Therefore, in Sean’s heart, Candy was more important than Leah.
Sean even regarded Candy as his own daughter.
Even if Leah was Candy’s biological mother and if Leah was the one who hit Candy, Sean would not spare her.
"Tell me."
Sean squinted slightly, pulled down Candy's clothes, sat on the sofa, and asked Leah again.
However, Leah just lowered her head and said nothing with tears kept falling.
"Leah, what’s going on? Tell me!"
Willow also grabbed Leah's hand anxiously and asked.
"Uncle, don’t scold my mother, it’s not mother, i-it’s grandma and aunt...”
Seeing Sean questioning Leah, Candy quickly explained in a low voice.
Crack!
A crisp sound.
A lollipop in Sean's hand was crushed into pieces by him.
"How can Faye be so cruel?
"Why did she do this?"
Willow was also extremely angry and shouted through gritted teeth.
She knew that Leah’s status in the Quinn family was even inferior to that of Sean's.
It was because although Sean was cold-shouldered by the Quinn family in the past two years, he still had Willow by his side.
Moreover, Sean lived together with Willow, so they had absolutely no need to be at the beck and call of the Quinn family, and the most he
had to face was the cold shoulder from Fion Wilson.
As for Leah, however, she was just a daughter-in-law of the Quinn family, an outsider.
She lived in the house of her mother-in-law, depending on them for a living.
Leah's husband did not return home all the year-round, and her mother-in- law also blamed her for all this.
So, all the dirty work at home was done by Leah.
What she did every day was essentially the work of a maid, but in return, she was bullied even more severely.
Now, they even hit Candy, who was still a kid, so Willow was very angry.novelbin
"Since Candy’s dad left, my mother-in-law has been a little mentally ill. She vented all her grievances on me and Candy.
"Before, they only picked on me, but now they actually hit Candy, so I don’t want to stay there anymore."
Leah let out a long sigh. She rarely told Willow about these things.
It was because she knew that Willow also had a hard time in the Quinn family.
"I didn't take my aunt's necklace, but she said I stole her things and said I was an ingrate...
"Candy is just an innocent kid!"
Candy huddled in Sean's arms and looked panicked as she recalled those events.
Sean's anger kept gushing in his heart when he looked at Candy.
He still vaguely remembered that the first time he saw Candy, that pair of clear and innocent eyes of hers was deeply imprinted in Sean's
mind.
Now, at a young age, she was suffering from such a nightmare.
Faye Quinn, that vicious woman, really deserved death!
"Leah, I just want to ask you, do you want to leave or stay in the Quinn family?"
Sean looked at Leah and asked directly.
Leah clenched her palm slightly, not knowing what to do at all.
Nominally, she was still the daughter-in-law of the Quinn family, so how could she just leave at will?
Seeing that Leah did not speak, Sean directly gave her two options.
"Only you can choose your path yourself.
"Now, I give you two options.
"Number one, if you want to stay with the Quinn family, then you can go back by yourself. From now on, Candy will stay here and live with
us.
"Number two, leave the Quinn family and dissociate with them."
As for Willow, she also supported Sean's decision immensely as there were limits to everything.
What Faye's family did was unforgivable.
"I’ve given options to you.
"If you don't know how to cherish it, then that's your business."
Sean waited for a minute. Seeing that Leah still did not speak, he immediately frowned and carried Candy, and was about to go out.
"Uncle..."
Candy called out but Sean still did not stop walking.
"Sean, wait a minute!"
Willow reached out to stop Sean, and then hurriedly looked at Leah.
